配置 ​

device-verified

组件: ArmDTPlatform, ArmCpu, SoftwareAES, DarwinBoot, XnuPrelink.

硬件与依赖 ​

  • MT6768 board resources, PMIC keys, p33 boot partition and the iPadOS 17.7.11 21H461 restore profile.

配置 ​

  • board.toml selects merlinx_defconfig, the iPad7,1 restore profile, the p33 boot layout and the native eMMC root path.

操作步骤 ​

  • Build the firmware, kernel, payload and boot image, then flash the image to p33 with fastboot.

开发经验 ​

  • The bootloader rejects fastboot boot, so every test image is written to p33 with fastboot flash boot.

完成条件 ​

  • Source pins resolve, the defconfig applies and the selected board tests boot from p33.

当前范围 ​

  • Only the iPadOS 17.7.11 profile is configured. The final phone target needs a separate OS profile.

下一步 ​

  • Keep the board keys and OS profile synchronized with the packaging manifest.

证据 ​

固件与启动 ​

device-verified

组件: DarwinBoot, XnuPrelink.

硬件与依赖 ​

  • merlinx.dts, the firmware volume from uefi-merlinx and the boot image parameters for p33.

配置 ​

  • The boot image wraps the fixed BootShim, the 3 MiB firmware volume, the trimmed DTB and the payload ramdisk.

操作步骤 ​

  • Build the firmware volume, generate the ADT sidecar and pack the p33 boot image.

开发经验 ​

  • The BootShim self-overwrite is fixed by relocating the copy and clean block before loading the firmware volume.

完成条件 ​

  • Firmware enters UniXNU, publishes the framebuffer and boots the payload from p33.

当前范围 ​

  • The bootloader does not support fastboot boot. Recovery uses a stock boot image.

下一步 ​

  • Record the firmware revision and the boot image hash for each hardware run.

证据 ​

CPU 与中断 ​

implemented

组件: ArmCpu.

硬件与依赖 ​

  • MT6768 CPU affinities, GIC and the ARM generic timer.

配置 ​

  • merlinx_defconfig enables ArmCpu, the architectural timer and the native SMP secondary path.

操作步骤 ​

  • Build the kernel and inspect the CPU and interrupt initialization path on hardware.

开发经验 ​

  • XNU reaches the scheduler and userland with the native timer entry.

完成条件 ​

  • Every enabled CPU enters the scheduler and timer handling works on each CPU.

当前范围 ​

  • GIC affinity and per-CPU interrupt coverage are not fully audited.

下一步 ​

  • Record the per-CPU startup checkpoints and the GIC configuration.

证据 ​

内存与 DMA ​

implemented

组件: ArmDTPlatform.

硬件与依赖 ​

  • 4 GiB DRAM, the owned memory window and the firmware framebuffer reservations.

配置 ​

  • The ADT generator receives DRAM size, owned memory size and CPU register values from board.toml.

操作步骤 ​

  • Generate the ADT sidecar and boot the kernel with the reserved memory layout.

开发经验 ​

  • The kernel window and owned memory handoff allow XNU entry and root mount.

完成条件 ​

  • Every reserved region is described, and the kernel does not overlap firmware or framebuffer memory.

当前范围 ​

  • DMA ownership and SMMU translation are not implemented for this board.

下一步 ​

  • Audit the reserved-memory and DMA windows against the final device tree.

证据 ​

存储与根卷 ​

device-verified

组件: NativeEmmc, RamBlock.

硬件与依赖 ​

  • The eMMC userdata partition, the OS and SystemOS APFS volumes and the local Data seed.

配置 ​

  • NativeEmmc publishes userdata and the OS and SystemOS volumes. The owner path mounts the SystemOS cache carrier and a packed Data seed.

操作步骤 ​

  • Flash the boot image, start XNU and read the ROM/status output.

开发经验 ​

  • NativeEmmc replaces the timed-out UEFI storage path. The kernel mounts SystemOS, executes initproc and reaches launchd, xpcproxy and SpringBoard. The macOS-generated Data seed mounts read-write and disables watchdogd through the launchd disabled plist.

完成条件 ​

  • Root and SystemOS mount, initproc runs, Data is writable and the launchd service graph remains alive.

当前范围 ​

  • Data is a bring-up seed. The NativeEmmc manifest backend and UFS persistence are stubbed, so the Data store is volatile and the full user data set is not present.

下一步 ​

  • Verify writable /private/var across reboot, then replace the bring-up stubs and keep watchdogd disabled only for diagnostics.

证据 ​

显示 ​

implemented

硬件与依赖 ​

  • The UEFI GOP framebuffer at 1080x2340 and the panning offset observed on the panel.

配置 ​

  • The kernel uses the retained GOP framebuffer for panic and boot-stage text. Userland display ownership is not configured.

操作步骤 ​

  • Flash a diagnostic image and read the status lines from the panel.

开发经验 ​

  • The GOP base, row stride and 32-bit format work. The kernel draws ROOT, VOL, CACHE, EXEC, LAUNCHD and Mali diagnostics. Userland reaches SpringBoard, but IOMFB_FDR_loader exits with status 1 and no scanout provider is published.

完成条件 ​

  • The kernel console is visible and userland presentation and backlight control work.

当前范围 ​

  • No userland display provider or renderer is implemented. IOMFB_FDR_loader fails before GPU display handoff. The scanout starts mid-panel.

下一步 ​

  • Trace IOMFB_FDR_loader exit 1 and add the userland display and GPU scanout path after the service graph is stable.

证据 ​

输入 ​

planned

硬件与依赖 ​

  • PMIC keys, volume-up, volume-down and power routing.

配置 ​

  • The UEFI menu uses volume-down to scroll and volume-up or power to select. No userland input path is configured.

操作步骤 ​

  • Measure key events in the UEFI menu and later in userland.

开发经验 ​

  • The PMIC mask covers power and volume-up, so both keys select a menu entry.

完成条件 ​

  • Touch or buttons produce stable HID events in userland.

当前范围 ​

  • No userland touch or HID provider is implemented.

下一步 ​

  • Define the input provider after the userland display path.

GPU ​

implemented

组件: MaliG52, MaliMetal.

硬件与依赖 ​

  • Mali-G52 r1p0 at 0x13040000, MT6358 VGPU/VSRAM via pwrap WACS2, and the SPM, INFRACFG, topckgen and mfgcfg clock and power windows.
  • NativeMali fixed external-method ABI and the MaliMetal MM3 pan_kmod seam.

配置 ​

  • MaliG52 is selected by board.toml and components.toml. The kernel personality matches mediatek,mali. build-mali-g52.py is invoked with --m2-writes --m3-writes --m4-writes --m6-writes so power, reset, MMU and job-write stages are compiled in. The IOKit glue, archive layout and build integration follow the official Adreno740 driver as the reference implementation; the Mali register, power and clock facts remain from MediaTek and panfrost sources. MaliMetal is the userland Metal/PanVK frontend and is not yet selected by the kernel build.

操作步骤 ​

  • Build the kernel, build a payload with the Mali diagnostic image, flash it to p33 and read the MALI status lines through the GOP framebuffer.
  • For the userland path, build PanVK with the MaliMetal patch series and open the NativeMali service from the MaliMetal bundle.

开发经验 ​

  • The kernel matches the Mali provider and maps all six windows. GICD_PIDR2 reads 0x3b, proving the physical MMIO path. PMIC PSEQ_ID reads 0x0800, proving pwrap reads. M2 power/clock/domain setup completes, the M3 GPU reset and M4 MMU initialization run, and the M6 job-write stage is enabled.
  • GPU_ID reads 0x74021000, which masks to product 0x7002 (Mali-G52). MALI RC is 0, and the GPU service publishes its device state. No GPU job, completed fence, PanVK device or userland Metal device has run yet.
  • MaliMetal contains the host-tested NativeMali client and the MM3 device/sync patch series; the mesa-panvk CI job compiles the seam but the NativeMali IOUserClient is not installed.

完成条件 ​

  • M2 completes, GPU_ID reads 0x70021000 with the expected feature and present masks, and a bounded GPU submission returns a completed fence.

当前范围 ​

  • The kernel path is confirmed through reset and MMU setup, but no job/fence has completed. The NativeMali IOUserClient and service are not installed in the current boot image, so MM4 cannot create a PanVK device on hardware. PanVK's 144 MB JM indirect buffer also exceeds the current 128 MB NativeMali per-BO limit. Userland display remains at IOMFB_FDR_loader exit 1.

下一步 ​

  • Build and install the NativeMali IOUserClient, lower or extend the PanVK indirect allocation, cross-build the target PanVK dylib, then run one bounded PanVK job and record its fence.

音频 ​

planned

硬件与依赖 ​

  • Audio DSP, codec and speaker routing.

配置 ​

  • No audio driver is selected.

操作步骤 ​

  • Inventory the audio DSP and codec before implementing a route.

开发经验 ​

  • No audio path exists in the current image.

完成条件 ​

  • A declared route carries audio through playback or capture.

当前范围 ​

  • Audio support is outside the current bring-up scope.

下一步 ​

  • Inventory the audio hardware after launchd services are stable.

证据 ​

按下一步操作收集证据。

电源 ​

implemented

硬件与依赖 ​

  • MT6768 PMIC, power keys and the platform power handoff.

配置 ​

  • The merlinx platform power archive and the sheng PMGR integration are linked into the kernel.

操作步骤 ​

  • Build the platform power archive and boot the kernel from p33.

开发经验 ​

  • The PMIC keys drive the UEFI menu and the kernel reaches launchd with the platform power path linked.

完成条件 ​

  • Declared power controls and battery readings match the board and sleep/resume restores peripherals.

当前范围 ​

  • Battery reporting and suspend/resume are not implemented.

下一步 ​

  • Add battery reporting and a suspend/resume path when userland is stable.

证据 ​

镜像组装 ​

implemented

组件: DarwinBoot, XnuPrelink.

硬件与依赖 ​

  • Kernel, firmware volume, DTB, payload and the packed Data seed.

配置 ​

  • board.toml declares the p33 boot size, package defconfig and payload inputs. scripts/package.sh is the fixed release entry point.

操作步骤 ​

  • Run scripts/package.sh with the selected OS profile and local inputs, then flash the boot image to p33.

开发经验 ​

  • Kernel and payload builds succeed with the packed Data seed. The validation image carries the seed and boot stages.

完成条件 ​

  • The release command writes boot.img, payload.img and kernel.macho with a manifest that verifies.

当前范围 ​

  • The current Data seed uses bring-up stubs and is not a production image. The package release has not replaced the manual build loop.

下一步 ​

  • Run scripts/package.sh --check and record its manifest in this area.

证据 ​

诊断 ​

device-verified

硬件与依赖 ​

  • Panel output, panic screen and the GOP status lines.

配置 ​

  • The kernel draws ROOT, VOL, CACHE, EXEC and LAUNCHD through the GOP framebuffer. The panic screen renders kernel panics on the panel.

操作步骤 ​

  • Flash a diagnostic image to p33 and read the panel.

开发经验 ​

  • The status lines identified the cache and launchd checkpoints without a UART. The Mali diagnostics add MATCH, START, RC, M2W, M2P, PMIC, GIC and staged M2 voltage markers. The launchd exit trace showed IOMFB_FDR_loader exit 1 while SpringBoard did not exit.

完成条件 ​

  • Each claimed milestone has a panel checkpoint or a reproducible panic result.

当前范围 ​

  • There is no UART and no userland log transport. The current Mali image omits the panic screen because the local UEFI font input was unavailable. Data I/O and userland display remain inferred from panel checkpoints.

下一步 ​

  • Add pwrap read sub-markers for the VSRAM path and restore the panic screen in the next CI payload build.
