Linux mainline fork with MSM8998 patches | https://mainline.space | Currently supported devices:
OnePlus 5/5T, Xiaomi Mi 6, F(x)tec Pro¹ (2019 QX1000 model) & Sony Xperia XZ Premium (UNTESTED!)
The devlink core recently gained support for checking whether the driver supports a flash_update parameter, via `supported_flash_update_params`. However, parameters are specified as function arguments. Adding a new parameter still requires modifying the signature of the .flash_update callback in all drivers. Convert the .flash_update function to take a new `struct devlink_flash_update_params` instead. By using this structure, and the `supported_flash_update_params` bit field, a new parameter to flash_update can be added without requiring modification to existing drivers. As before, all parameters except file_name will require driver opt-in. Because file_name is a necessary field to for the flash_update to make sense, no "SUPPORTED" bitflag is provided and it is always considered valid. All future additional parameters will require a new bit in the supported_flash_update_params bitfield.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
