AGL for Raspberry Pi 4

Closed for HH 8.0.2

Hi,

I declare victory over the initial porting of AGL to Raspberry Pi 4. My tests with AGL master from today show that:

• Home screen boots successfully

• HDMI works

• The official 7" rpi touchscreen display works over DSI

• Ethernet works

• WiFi works

• Bluetooth works

I still observe issues with the sound from media player app https://lf-automotivelinux.atlassian.net/browse/SPEC-2666#icft=SPEC-2666 which are generic for rpi as a platform. I've also noticed that lightmediascanner doesn't start properly on first boot but this seems to affect both rpi3 and rpi4. I will report this in a separate JIRA issue and investigate it further.

Best regards,
Leon

Hi,

I have updated the AGL wiki article about Bluetooth following the recent changes for Raspberry Pi 4.

Hi,

@Jan-Simon Moeller, thank you for contributing the patch that enables v3d and dependencies in Mesa. I confirm that now AGL master works better on rpi4. Following your feedback about the WiFi issues I have submitted a couple of fixes for a review in Gerrit:

• Fix WiFi

• Fix Bluetooth

As @Stephane Desneux noted a few days ago in a Gerrit code review, just for the record, I would like also to mention here in JIRA, that the merged update of Mesa to 19.1 is required only for Raspberry Pi 4 and it is a temporary solution until AGL moves to a new releases on the Yocto Project. The new releases will have appropriate Mesa version and the current temporary solution will be no longer needed.

Best regards,
Leon
