Mainline Kernel

Hard, but not impossible. The Hi6620/Hisilicon Kirin 910T needs to be upstreamed first, but many other Kirins have mainline support to some extent.

How to enter flash mode

Keep Power + Volume Down pressed for about 5 seconds on boot

Installation

Kernel builds but only with DEVTMPFS disabled at the moment. No SSH, no Weston at the moment. Boots fine to initramfs using downstream kernel, including working framebuffer and some other peripherals.
