Imagination PowerVR Driver Being Extended To Work On RISC-V
The Linux 6.8 kernel merged the Imagination PowerVR driver as a new open-source driver for supporting the PowerVR 'Rogue' graphics architecture and being developed in tandem by Imagination Tech with their upstream Mesa Vulkan driver
Interestingly this new patch series for PowerVR driver support on RISC-V / the BXM-4-64 on LicheePi 4A is coming from a Samsung engineer, Michal Wilczynski. Those interested in this ability to use the open-source PowerVR driver on RISC-V hardware can see this patch series for the code now under review. The LicheePi 4A RISC-V board has 4 / 8 / 16GB LPDDR4x memory options, Gigabit Ethernet, eMMC storage up to 128GB, HDMI 2.0 4K@60 output, and other basics.
