The sun4i DRM driver changes have been submitted for inclusion in DRM-Next to in turn land in Linux 4.10.

• Drivers Allwinner A31
• Drivers Allwinner A319

A31 CPU architecture consists of quad ARM Cortex-A7 cores to deliver decent computing capability while consuming less power, and integrates the PowerVR SGX544 GPU. It also features Cedar Engine multimedia processing unit that is capable of up to 2160p ( 3840x1080@30fps 4k resolution or 1080p 3D decoding) video decoding, with. Supported android devices: Allwinner A31 Rom, Epson T7270, P Linksys E4200 Problems, 3 For Windows 10, Sony St23i Tft, Hl Dt St Dvdram Gt30n Asus and many others.

Initially, Allwinner named their SoCs chronologically: sun4i = A10. Sun5i = A13/A10s. But, somewhere in 2013, Allwinner decided to update their naming scheme to be based on the ARM core used instead: (taken from the A80 SDK kernel code). Allwinner A33 Tablet Pattern Lock Remove Tool, Very Easy Use This Tool. When you execute it, it will give you the characteristics of the dram you have. Android Tools is very smart tool for Allwinner tablets which can fix many of the problem occurred during flashing most common problem is Touch screen driver which mostly user facing.

The main feature change for sun4i-drm with Linux 4.10 is support for the Allwinner A31 SoC display engine. Supporting the display hardware on the A31 requires less than 100 lines of new code compared to the existing Allwinner DRM display support. The A31 SoC has been available since 2012 and is used by many Chinese tablets.
The DRM-Next pull request for this code can be found via this dri-devel message.

Known problems:

• Release tag v4.5 contains a change that broke stmmac networking on quite a few sunxi devices. The symptoms are

A quick fix is to revert commit 88f8b1b which introduced the regression. See http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2016-March/415939.html, https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg104119.html, https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=823493.
