The existing device package and its dependencies are for i9305, but
renaming them to i9300 makes more sense, as the i9300 is the base
version (SIII) and the i9305 (SIII LTE) is the improved version.
Since the installer leaves the partition in a state where the initramfs
needs to resize it. But without the force parameter the postmarketOS
initramfs won't touch the partitions
Mostly the GCC10 yylloc failure was seen but several others have been
observed:
* wireguard script was silently failing
* several gcc10 x86 errors
* a checksum from kernel.org has changed
Now we have 3 different gcc10 yylloc patches:
gcc10-extern_YYLOC_global_declaration.patch:
Linux < 4.2
linux4.2-gcc10-extern_YYLOC_global_declaration.patch:
Linux 4.2+
linux4.17-gcc10-extern_YYLOC_global_declaration.patch:
Linux 4.17+

With these kernel sources the device boots successfully,
sometimes. Usually, kernel panics and device reboots a couple of
times, but after a few attempts (maybe 1, maybe 7) it succeeds to
boot. The problems seem to be related to FIMC IS, unfortunately it
does not seem to be possible to just disable it in the kernel config,
as that leads to compilation errors.
I have so far just experimented with getting wifi up and running, but
it does not work out of the box even after adding firmware package
with files from TheMuppets, wpa_supplicant fails to connect and dmesg
is filed with lines like:
```
[ 112.509235] [L0: wl_event_handle: 3109] CFG80211-INFO2) wl_escan_handler : Couldn't find P2PIE in probe response/beacon

Upstream keeps making breaking changes in patch releases.
Let's fork alsa-ucm-conf entirely for now instead of just patching
in some files to ensure that these files don't break every few months.
This fixes audio on MSM8916 devices when not using the modem.
This subpackage was removed when a proper fix for suspend was merged,
however apk doesn't know to purge this subpackage, so the old elogind
hook workaround stuck around. This workaround could probably be removed
once we're sure all folks on edge have installed this upgraded package
with the 'provides'...
- re-enable console suspend, which seems to be broken with elogind when
suspending (kernel gets hung up indefinitely in vt_waitactive)
- add a suspend hook to work around the musb driver not allowing the
device to suspend
Based on my testing, this option seems to prevent suspending via
elogind (using `loginctl suspend`). When console suspend is disabled,
the kernel gets hung up in the call to vt_waitactive, and elogind times
out trying to suspend.
qrtr-ns is now part of the Linux kernel (as of version 5.9), so
there is no need to start it in userspace anymore. It does not seem
to be needed (or working) on downstream either.
linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8996 is the only mainline kernel which
is still on < 5.9. In preparation to make the qrtr dependency optional
for rmtfs, let's explicitly enable qrtr-ns for MSM8996 devices to avoid
causing regressions.
Update to kernel 5.9 with the following changes:
* Change tri-state key to macro keys instead of 'A', 'B' and 'C' keys.

Initial support for Sony Xperia XA (codename: sony-tuba). Builds, can be
flashed, ssh connection through usb works, display works, touchscreen works,
no wifi or anything else.
According to the wiki pages, some interfaces can't be built for the
armhf architecture. This device is configured to armhf but it actually
supports armv7 architecture. Tested with a samsung-i9300.
This new version:
- Upgrades device config from upstream to v25
- Fixes a problem using modesetting driver on Xorg (lightdm
was broken because it now uses Xorg)
- Override GDK to use GLES (change from upstream Purism)
