Software
DH Mainline based Linux
- Notes:
- - The Mainline based Linux offers Etnaviv GPU driver support!!!
- - Based on kernel 5.10.x and Yocto version dunfell
- Yocto meta layer --> Github
- NEW DH Mainline based Starter Image 2021-10-21 (based on 5.10 kernel)
- Linux and bootloader documentation
- NEW How to start with custom DHCOR design?
- The patch below is an example patch which applies on top of u-boot v2021.01 and implements a custom board derived from 3V3 option of DHCOR STM32MP1 SoM. That's pretty much all you have to change to implement the board. But, please tweak the DTs esp. where there are the FIXME comments.

Useful instructions
How to test OV5640 camera
To use the D3 mezzanine board with AV96 and the OV5640 camera, one has to apply the correct DTO first: STM32MP> setenv loaddtos '#conf-stm32mp157a-avenger96.dtb#conf-stm32mp15xx-avenger96-overlay-ov5640-x7.dtbo'; boot
Afterward it is possible to stream frames from the camera: $ XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/var/run/user/$(id -u weston)/ gst-launch-1.0 \
v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! \
