Hi,
I was quite happy to see that the BananaPi Image contains dtb files for my imx6 based CuBox-i and I successfully booted the distro kernel. Unfortunately it turned out that the hardware support is somehow incomplete, e.g. the SATA port cannot be found. I'm running a mainline kernel on the CuBox-i since kernel version 4.2, so I don't expect much effort to get adequate hardware support with the CentOS kernel as well. Where can I get the armhfp kernel sources, I haven't found them [here](https://github.com/CentOS) and [here](http://vault.centos.org/7.3.1611/os/Source/SPackages/)?
Cheers Uli

For armhp, nothing is pushed to vault.centos.org (but should be discussed and implemented one day). SRPMs can be found on armv7.dev.centos.org, and for example http://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/arm-kernels/4.4.34-201/kernel-4.4.34-201...
It's the AltArch "experimental" kernel that Johnny is maintaining for some people willing to use a newer 4.x based kernel, and coming from kernel.org (and pushed to http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/experimental/x86_64/Packages/ )
I'll ping him though as that kernel should be on git.centos.org too btw, but can't find it myself at the moment

Just replying to myself : here it is : https://git.centos.org/summary/sig-altarch!kernel.git (and I need to update it for armhfp too btw)

Is there any reason why you're using https://git.centos.org for the kernel sources and https://github.com/CentOS for the tooling?

Do you think you will be able to push the 4.9.13 armhfp kernel sources to https://git.centos.org/summary/sig-altarch!kernel.git
Cheers Uli

That's a question for Johnny, as I don't have push access to those git repositories @Johnny ?

Are you talking about the PI kernel?
The x86_64 kernel SOURCES are also the ones used for the generic armhfp kernel as well right now. (The Cubieturck kernel, etc.)
If you are asking specifically about the PI kernel, we can do something (I guess).
