linux-wiiu nearly ready for mainline

Written by Ash on Filed in brew Tags: linux programming brief

I’ve spent the last couple weeks cleaning up the platform bringup code for linux-wiiu to the point where I can send it upstream for review (and presumably several rounds of back-and-forth). It’s getting excitingly close - now have a patchset that applies clean to mainline and prints dmesg to linux-loader:

Screenful of text, Linux 5.16.0 booting on wiiu (page 1) Screenful of text, Linux 5.16.0 booting on wiiu (page 2)

I have a few more warnings to fix and devicetree nodes to document, but otherwise we’re looking really good. Check out the External Links section on linux-wiiu’s homepage for Discord/Matrix/XMPP if you want to keep an eye on progress or get involved.
