Delete me: Raspberry Pi 4 port status (Rev #6)
Overview
At present the port consists of three components:
- A HAL targetting Broadcom’s BCM2835 system-on-chip.
- The standard ‘HAL’ version of the RISC OS 5 kernel and the standard ROM modules
- Additional custom driver modules, e.g. VCHIQ, DWCDriver as required
At present the port is known to be functional on the following hardware devices:
- Raspberry Pi Model A
- Raspberry Pi Model B 256MB
- Raspberry Pi Model B 512MB
The Raspberry Pi port is currently a work in progress. Users with an adequate backup strategy in place may wish to try the beta version as it stands.
Current status
The RISC OS Roadmap covers items which are not specific to the Raspberry Pi, and the bug tracker covers defects in existing components. This table covers planned future tasks or areas that are yet to be implemented on Raspberry Pi.
| Enhancements to existing Pi functionality | ||
|---|---|---|
| Task | Description/Status | Assigned to |
| Networking | Uploading packets is around 10x slower than downloading data, potentially related to USB problems | Unassigned |
| DWCDriver | Keypresses go missing, or sometimes the key up does not get through from the mouse | Unassigned |
| HAL | Delete-power-on and similar boot keypresses are not checked for | Unassigned |
| Unimplemented Pi features | ||
