Source: linux-image-3.13-trunk-armmp
Version: 3.13-1~exp1
Severity: important

the mentioned multiplatform kernel ist intended to run on armada 370
SOCs. A system using this SOC is the Mirabox.

I noticed, that the following modules are missing in the armmp kernel to
support the device properly:

xhci controller:
CONFIG_USB_XHCI_HCD=m

mwifiex wifi:
CONFIG_MWIFIEX=m
CONFIG_MWIFIEX_SDIO=m

Futhermore hctosys-on-boot does not work. As the /etc/init.d/hwlock.sh
script does not run in rcS, because udev is already active, the system
time relies on the kernel, that needs to set it from rtc on boot time.
In order to make this work, the rtc driver must be compiled-in (as far
as I investigated the situation):

RTC_DRV_MV=y

Furthermore the PCI-Controller of the device needs the following kernel
option to make it work:

CONFIG_PCI_MVEBU=y

The mentioned modifications are tested locally and work.

If the options for RTC and PCI (non-module) conflict with other options
(related to another device), a separated flavour would still be
necessary.

Hi

This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.

If you can reproduce it with

- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports

please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.

Regards,
Salvatore
