The Huawei Ascend G7 is a smartphone from Huawei based on MSM8916. It's fairly similar to the other MSM8916 devices, the only notable exception are the "cd-gpios" for detecting if a SD card was inserted: It looks like Huawei forgot to re-route this to gpio38, so the correct GPIO seems to be gpio56 on this device. Note: The original firmware from Huawei can only boot 32-bit kernels. To boot arm64 kernels it is necessary to flash 64-bit TZ/HYP firmware with EDL, e.g. taken from the DragonBoard 410c. This works because Huawei forgot to set up (firmware) secure boot for some reason. Also note that Huawei no longer provides bootloader unlock codes. This can be bypassed by patching the bootloader from a custom HYP firmware, making it think the bootloader is unlocked. I use a modified version of qhypstub [1], that patches a single instruction in the Huawei bootloader. The device tree contains initial support for the Huawei Ascend G7 with: - UART (untested, probably available via some test points) - eMMC/SD card - Buttons - Notification LED (combination of 3 GPIO LEDs) - Vibrator - WiFi/Bluetooth (WCNSS) - USB [1]: https://github.com/msm8916-mainline/qhypstub Signed-off-by: Stephan Gerhold <stephan@gerhold.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210514104328.18756-1-stephan@gerhold.net Signed-off-by: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@linaro.org> |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
