@avafinger buildroot actually failed. I've done a mistake, so now I can reproduce it and fix it.
one thing to fix is to change every occurence of:
with:
Then I'm fixing .ioctl difference. Then I'm going to create patches and submit. @avafinger @kjngineering
Sounds good - I can test build as soon as there is a branch I can drop into the buildroot package config.
@giuliobenetti Right, Please note that A64 seems to need some additional work, but I can test both arch, no problem.
@avafinger yes .ioctl file_operations error
@avafinger @kjngineering
r6p2 is fixed with temporary patches on this branch: https://github.com/giuliobenetti/sunxi-mali/tree/dev/fix-5.10
Going to fix other versions too. Unfortunately patches for r6p2 don't fit for r6p0, rp81, rp90.
@giuliobenetti
I was successfully able to build the r6p2 driver under 5.10 for an arm H3 platform using your repository. I cannot test functionality however as there is some issue at boot time preventing me from getting to console. I suspect this may be unrelated - it appears to be something to do with the mmc driver.
@giuliobenetti Tested your patch on NanoPi A64 with r6p2 gbm blobs (had this Image ready) and kernel 5.10 and it is working fine. the fbdev will take some time for me to test but I assume mali is working as it should. Thank you for your work. I will not test this in 5.9, already moved all my stuff to 5.10.
@avafinger thanks a lot for testing. Now let’s wait to be merged so I can update buildroot package too.
@kjngineering can you please test my patches on Linux 5.10 and fbdev?
@kjngineering can you please test my patches on Linux 5.10 and fbdev?
I was able to build (above) -- but had some other unrelated issues that prevented me from testing the driver.
I'm going to have another go - is there a particular branch/commit you would like me to build against? https://github.com/giuliobenetti/sunxi-mali/tree/dev/fix-5.10-all-versions?
@kjngineering yes that branch is correct, it's the one i've used to open PR #89 Thank you
@giuliobenetti
I had to switch to Buildroot 2020.11 to fix my aforementioned issue, but: I was able to build the r6p2 that branch against 5.10 on a Allwinner H3 Platform (OrangePi Zero H3 Plus2) without issue.

let me know when the r8p0 patchset is ok and I will test this too on the same hardware.
@kjngineering great. r8p1 is already there in PR #89. That fixes for every version.
sunxi-mali fails to build with Linux 5.9 and 5.10 Currently working on it in my Repo, here is temp version for r6p2: https://github.com/giuliobenetti/sunxi-mali/tree/dev/fix-5.10 here I'm working for all versions: https://github.com/giuliobenetti/sunxi-mali/tree/dev/fix-5.10-all-versions
