Enabling Linux Support with Upstream Kernel on Snapdragon X1 Elite SoCs - Rajendra Nayak, Qualcomm Innovation Center Inc
The session details how the upstream kernel was used during the Snapdragon X1 Elite SoC Linux bringup, how it was used to obtain the reported ST and MT benchmark Geekbench scores and the current upstream status of the patches. It also includes a demo booting upstream kernel with a Debian/Ubuntu userspace on a Snapdragon X1 Elite QRD (Qualcomm Reference Device). The patches to enable basic console support along with a public branch with Display/GPU enable was posted when the Snapdragon X1 Elite SoC was publicly announced. Boot to console support has already landed on kernel version v6.7 and is on track to have remaining kernel support land by the time the first commercial device with X1 Elite SoC comes out on the market.
