03:23 <triskit> Yes, and the RK3308 is not available from LCSC either, only Aliexpress sellers. I emailed LCSC today to see if I could special order it, but no response yet.

03:25 <triskit> I’d be fine with the D1; I’m most worried about whether mainstream distros will support the XuanTie C906 long-term. I understand it doesn’t support some of the newer RISC-V extensions, or has vendor-specific variants of them.

03:28 <triskit> I recall seeing some patches/discussion for smoothing that over in the kernel, but not sure if they were mainlined. I think it had some dependence on binutils too…

05:59 <Jookia> AFAIK the main difference with the c906 is old vector version support, which needs a patch in context switching for the kernel
