📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Bumps KERNEL_MAJOR_MINOR for meson64 and rockchip64 edge branches from 7.0 to 7.1 and bleedingedge from 7.1 to 7.2. Updates the mainline RC selector to target v7.2-rc1 via the Torvalds repo. Regenerates both edge defconfigs: removes legacy ATM, Hamradio, and select crypto options; adjusts Wi-Fi entries; adds CONFIG_GPIO_CDEV_V1=y.

Changes

Kernel 7.1/7.2 Bump for meson64 and rockchip64

Layer / File(s)	Summary
KERNEL_MAJOR_MINOR and RC branch-selection updates `config/sources/families/include/meson64_common.inc`, `config/sources/families/include/rockchip64_common.inc`, `config/sources/mainline-kernel.conf.sh`	`KERNEL_MAJOR_MINOR` for `edge` updated to `7.1` and `bleedingedge` to `7.2` in both family includes. `mainline-kernel.conf.sh` maps `7.2` to `tag:v7.2-rc1` and replaces the `7.1-rc7` Torvalds hook with a `7.2-rc1`-specific override.
meson64-edge defconfig regeneration `config/kernel/linux-meson64-edge.config`	Header bumped to 7.1. Removes `CONFIG_IPV6_SIT`, ATM clip/lane/mpoa/dummy/tcp/lanai/eni/nicstar/ia/fore200e/he entries, Hamradio module block, `CONFIG_RTL8723DS`, and `CONFIG_POWER_RESET_MESON64`. Replaces MICHAEL_MIC/DRBG/SM3 crypto block with RMD160, WP512, XCBC, DEFLATE, 842, LZ4HC, USER_API_* options and `CONFIG_CRYPTO_GHASH_ARM64_CE=y`. Adds `CONFIG_GPIO_CDEV_V1=y`.
rockchip64-edge defconfig regeneration `config/kernel/linux-rockchip64-edge.config`	Header bumped to 7.1. Removes `CONFIG_IPV6_SIT`, ATM and Hamradio option blocks. Wi-Fi block updated with RTL8189ES/AW/Unisoc/WCN entries, `CONFIG_AW_BIND_VERIFY=y` added, `CONFIG_TTY_OVERY_SDIO=m` removed. Removes MICHAEL_MIC, DRBG hash/CTR, and SM3 NEON/ARM64 CE crypto options.

armbian/build#9950: Modifies the same mainline_kernel_decide_version__upstream_release_candidate_number hook in mainline-kernel.conf.sh, previously mapping 7.1 to v7.1-rc7.
armbian/build#9896: Re-enables CONFIG_RTL8723DS in the rockchip64 defconfig for kernels >= 7.1, directly related to the removal of that option in this PR.

🐇 The kernel hops from seven-point-oh to one,
Old ATM and ham-radio configs — gone!
Crypto reshuffled, the GPIO cdev free,
v7.2-rc1 branches now point to Torvalds' tree.
A tidy little diff, and the build hops on! 🌱

Add CONFIG_GPIO_CDEV_V1=y to align with meson64-edge kernel 7.1 configuration.

Both rockchip64-edge and meson64-edge target Linux kernel 7.1, but rockchip64-edge is missing CONFIG_GPIO_CDEV_V1=y which is present in meson64-edge. This inconsistency should be resolved.
