Nice! Looking forward to finally getting proper support for my Lichee Pi 4A!

Hooray! Personally, I'm hoping this'll lead to support for the GPU on Spacemit SoCs.

The GPU driver itself is largely the same, though it might need some tweaks for the specific variant in the K1.

The bigger hurdle will likely be the display controller. The TH1520 and JH7110 both use the Verisilicon DC8200, whereas the Spacemit K1 uses a custom display controller that will need its own DRM driver mainlined.

Fantastic, good work. I'm looking forward to mainstream RISC-V.

Kudos, great project, i wait to have my work machine being the RISC-V once...

Congratulations!

BTW is OrangePI V2 supported?

what's the point of supporting HDMI?

just let this worse standard die already - and switch to DisplayPort

If your board comes with a HDMI output you surely want to the that to connect e.g. a TV
