BFE EngineeringandClaude Opus 4.8 fda84b4c27 kernel: RGA 2D accelerator ported (open-source vendor driver) — verified
Ported the vendor multicore RGA char-dev driver (drivers/video/rockchip/rga3/,
CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_MULTI_RGA) to 6.18 — WardenOS's librga uses /dev/rga, not V4L2.
On warden-c8a3: rga2 probe successful, hw_version 3.3.87975, /dev/rga +
/dev/dma_heap present. This is the CPU-savings 2D accelerator (LVGL UI offload).

6 mechanical 5.10->6.18 API fixes (platform remove->void, hrtimer_init->
hrtimer_setup, iommu_map* gfp arg, get_user_pages_remote vmas arg, MAX_ORDER
compat, MODULE_IMPORT_NS string). CMA via the default 64 MiB pool +
DMABUF_HEAPS_CMA (a custom linux,cma DT node hangs boot). Recipe + deltas in
rga/PORT-DONE.md. All open source (vendor C source).

RGA port — DONE, verified on hardware (2026-08-24)

Ported the vendor char-dev RGA driver (drivers/video/rockchip/rga3/, the multicore CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_MULTI_RGA driver — WardenOS's librga uses /dev/rga, not V4L2) to 6.18. Open source (vendor C source). On warden-c8a3:

rga: rga2, irq = 55, match scheduler
rga: rga2 hardware loaded successfully, hw_version:3.3.87975
rga: rga2 probe successfully        →  /dev/rga present, /dev/dma_heap present

Build tree wiring

drivers/video/rockchip/{Kconfig,Makefile} created (source rga3/); wired into drivers/video/{Kconfig,Makefile}. CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_MULTI_RGA=y. &rga2 { status="okay"; }. For /dev/dma_heap/cma: use the kernel's default 64 MiB CMA + CONFIG_DMABUF_HEAPS{,_CMA,_SYSTEM}=y — do NOT add a linux,cma DT node (a mis-aligned/duplicate one hangs the boot at reserved-memory init).

5.10 → 6.18 API deltas fixed (all mechanical)

  1. platform_driver.remove: intvoid (rga_drv_remove, drop the returns).
  2. hrtimer_init(&t,…) + t.function=fnhrtimer_setup(&t, fn, CLOCK_MONOTONIC, HRTIMER_MODE_REL) — the scheduler tick; verified under the live probe.
  3. iommu_map / iommu_map_sg: added the new gfp arg (GFP_KERNEL).
  4. get_user_pages_remote: dropped the removed vmas arg.
  5. MAX_ORDER (removed) → compat #define MAX_ORDER (MAX_PAGE_ORDER + 1) in rga3/include/rga_drv.h (preserves the old exclusive semantics everywhere).
  6. MODULE_IMPORT_NS(<token>)MODULE_IMPORT_NS("DMA_BUF") (string form).
