We have buildroot setup for the i.MX8MM, and would like to add support for using libg2d, through package BR2_PACKAGE_IMX_GPU_G2D
However this depends on BR2_ARM_EABIHF, and hence is at odds with our aarch64 setup.
I see there is a year old patch that mentions only 32bit support for libg2d
https://buildroot.uclibc.narkive.com/JOeEbB4P/patch-0-4-imx-graphics-packages-update-to-6-2-4-p1-2
Is this still the case?
I see there are aarch64 compiled gpu drivers here (for i.MX6 and 7 according to the release notes)
https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/imx-gpu-g2d-6.2.4.p4.0-aarch64.bin
Thanks
The patch is already included in buildroot, bumping the G2D driver to 6.2.4.p1.2 - but it still excludes aarch64 support for the g2d driver.
This puts the buildroot support for g2d a year out of date unfortunately.
Will the released imx-gpu-g2d-6.2.4.p4.0-aarch64.bin library support the i.mx8mm if we add this in? (noting the linux release notes don't specify the 8mm support).
Hello brendon,
Yes is still the case, you will have to apply the patch.
