i want to use a tree not based on a rc so i changed existing branch to use the 4.16.1 and upgraded to 4.16.3, added config, build-script and swapped mmc (to make sure mmc0 is sd-card like in all r2-images)
I’m also trying out the 4.16.7 kernel but I’m havin issues with the devices on the USB bus. I have the following error message in the dmesg
[ 4.377387] xhci-mtk 1a1c0000.usb: fail to get sys_ck

I noticed it because there the network devices (wan, lan) are not shown:

As far as I know ip link shows all devices, no matter if they are up, down, connected or disconnected.
No, I tried the Vanilla Linux Kernel with the default config (mt7623n_evb_bpi_defconfig) from the BPI-R2-bsp archive). I now used your repository and the origin/4.16-main branch and it is working.
In the kernel configuration I used the clocks for mmsys, imgsys, vdecsys, hifsys, ethsys and bdpsys are not selected. I added those, recompiled and hooray, it’s working now
There is the same issue as I described above with the multi_v7_defconfig: the clock driver for mmsys, imgsys, vdecsys, hifsys, ethsys and bpdsys are not enabled by default in kernel v4.16.8.
[*] Clock driver for MediaTek MT2701
[ ] Clock driver for MediaTek MT2701 mmsys
[ ] Clock driver for MediaTek MT2701 imgsys
[ ] Clock driver for MediaTek MT2701 vdecsys
[ ] Clock driver for MediaTek MT2701 hifsys
[ ] Clock driver for MediaTek MT2701 ethsys
[ ] Clock driver for MediaTek MT2701 bdpsys
so i changed existing branch to use the 4.16.1 and upgraded to 4.16.3, added config, build-script and swapped mmc (to make sure mmc0 is sd-card like in all r2-images)
