Crust firmware for Debian
=========================

Mainline u-boot
---------------

As documented in upstream README,
Crust is supported since u-boot v2021.01-rc1.


Mainline linux
--------------

As documented in upstream README,
Crust needs some small patches not yet mainlined.

A potential alternative is to pass this Linux cmdline option:

    clk_ignore_unused

E.g. add it to variable U_BOOT_PARAMETERS in file </etc/default/u-boot>
or to variable LINUX_KERNEL_CMDLINE in file </etc/default/flash-kernel>

HDMI CEC
--------

These platforms seems to have a fully wired HDMI connector,
and should wakeup by messages sent to them via HDMI CEC bus:

  * a64-olinuxino
  * a64-olinuxino-emmc
  * pine64-lts
  * pine64_plus


Serial port
-----------

These platforms are known to be mainly battery-powered,
and to save extra power has serial port disabled during suspend:

  * pinebook
  * pinephone
  * pinetab
  * teres_i
