+Amarula A64 Relic
+================
+
+Amarula A64-Relic is A64 based IoT device, which support
+- Allwinner A64 Cortex-A53
+- Mali-400MP2 GPU
+- AXP803 PMIC
+- 1GB DDR3 RAM
+- 8GB eMMC
+- AP6330 Wifi/BLE
+- MIPI-DSI
+- CSI: OV5640 sensor
+- USB OTG
+- 12V DC power supply
+
+Wiki link:
+https://openedev.amarulasolutions.com/display/ODWIKI/Amarual+A64-Relic
+
+Build
+=====
+
+  $ make amarula_a64_relic_defconfig
+
+  $ make
+
+build files at output/images/:
+  - sunxi-spl.bin
+  - u-boot.itb
+  - Image
+  - sun50i-a64-amarula-relic.dtb
+  - boot.vfat
+  - rootfs.ext4
+
+Write eMMC
+=========
+
+The board comes with an operating system preloaded on the eMMC.
+To replace it with the Buildroot-built system, take the following
+steps
+
+1. Connect the board UART with host and open minicom(ttyUSBx/115200N8)
+
+2. Supply 12V DC for power-on the board.
+
+3. Interrupt U-Boot by pressing enter
+
+4. Create GPT partitions
+  => mmc dev 1
+  => gpt write mmc 1 $partitions
+
+5. Connect the board USB-OTG with USB slot on the host.
+
+6. Initiate fastboot
+  => fastboot 0
+
+7. Write images from host onto eMMC using fastboot
+
+  $ cd output/images
+  $ sudo fastboot -i 0x1f3a flash loader1 sunxi-spl.bin
+  $ sudo fastboot -i 0x1f3a flash loader2 u-boot.itb
+  $ sudo fastboot -i 0x1f3a flash esp boot.vfat
+  $ sudo fastboot -i 0x1f3a flash system rootfs.ext4
+
+Update eMMC during Development
+==============================
+
+During development, reflashing the entire filesystem image at every
+change is time consuming. A useful alternative is to directly access
+over USB the filesystem stored on the eMMC, using the USB Mass Storage
+capability of U-Boot. To achieve this:
+
+1. Build U-Boot with CONFIG_CMD_USB_MASS_STORAGE=y
+
+2. Follow all 6 steps from 'Write eMMC' and mount eMMC on host
+    => mmc dev 1
+    => ums 0 mmc 1

[Buildroot] [PATCH v5 2/2] board: amarula: a64-relic: Add WiFi support

[Jagan Teki]

Amarula A64-Relic board has AP6330 WiFi/BT combo, but does
not have ethernet port. So it makes sense to enable wireless
networking by default:
- add broadcom wireless firmware package to image
- add basic wireless tools to image
- add rootfs overlay with proper NVRAM file for on-board AP6330 chip
- add mdev to image to enable module autoloading
- update readme.txt to test wifi

Changes for v5:
- rebase to master
Changes for v4, v3:
- none
Changes for v2:
- drop init scripts for module loading
- add mdev for module autoloading

Thanks, this looks good, except two aspects. One could have been fixed
using a follow-up patch, but not the other one.

I guess the final 2018.07 is released now, so you could useit.

> +BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TARBALL_LOCATION="$(call github,amarula,linux-amarula,a64-relic)/linux-amarula_a64-relic.tar.gz"

"a64-relic" is a branch name, which makes the build non reproducible.
We want either a tag, or a full SHA1, to ensure that we always build
the same kernel version.

Could you fix that up and resend the patch?

Best regards,

Thomas
