Audit during ohm pkgrel=4 migration found the per-series -danctnix mirrors merged in #17 do NOT apply against the linux-pinetab2 baseline: all 17 of them use DKMS-style root paths (bes2600/foo.c) rather than in-tree staging paths (drivers/staging/bes2600/foo.c), and at least one has a corrupted mixed-prefix header (a/drivers/staging/bes2600/... b/bes2600/...). ka-promote ohm with those includes produced a 172 644-byte cumulative touching 27 file paths, of which 11 are bogus. The hand-curated 0001-bes2600-besser-cumulative-series.patch from the working danctnix-besser-pkgbuild flow on boltzmann (148 149 bytes, 48 in-tree staging files) is what pkgrel=3 actually builds with. Until the per-series mirrors are reconstructed (followup issue to be opened separately), the bes2600 driver scope is satisfied here by staging that hand-curated cumulative as a single-file series-dir patches/driver/bes2600/cumulative-c5x-danctnix/. ohm.yaml drops the broken per-series includes in favour of: - driver/bes2600/cumulative-c5x-danctnix/ - driver/bes2600/scan-filter-5ghz-danctnix/ (closes besser#1) - arch/arm64/xor-neon-ffixed-x18-scs-build-fix-danctnix/ ka-promote ohm now produces a self-consistent 157 446-byte cumulative (148 149 + 7 735 + 1 562 = exact byte arithmetic) with b2sum a807297b25be... which is what the new marfrit-packages/arch/linux-pinetab2-danctnix-besser PKGBUILD pkgrel=4 pins. Also fixes fleet/ohm.yaml YAML parse error: bar5_burn_in had a scalar value followed by a sub-list, which ka-promote (PyYAML) refused to parse. The whole manifest had never parsed cleanly since #18 landed. Refs: #5 (migrate PKGBUILD), #2 (mirror besser series — needs per-series rewrite followup), besser#1 (Patch I).
patches/driver/bes2600/
BES2600 WiFi driver patches (drivers/staging/bes2600/*, mainline-bound).
Mirrored from marfrit/besser/patches/ on 2026-05-16.
Scope tag: driver:bes2600 (see fleet/ohm.yaml for the consumer).
Consumer: ohm (PineTab2, RK3566 + BES2600 SDIO).
Series taxonomy
30 series (15 base + 15 -danctnix siblings). The -danctnix
variants exist because vanilla series don't apply on the DanctNIX
kernel base (slightly different in-tree state for drivers/staging/bes2600/*).
Keep both as separate series until BES2600 lands upstream, then
collapse — issue #2 acceptance criterion.
Each series directory contains numbered .patch files plus
optionally a 0000-cover-letter.patch for multi-patch series.
Promotion eligibility (per series)
Marked here for the kernel-agent CLI (ka-promote) to pick up.
Markus to update as series mature. Default UNSET means "ask before
including in a build".

DKMS-to-in-tree transition path
bes2600-dkms (Mobian fork, in marfrit/bes2600-dkms) is the
out-of-tree shim that ohm currently uses for the BES2600 wifi+BT.
Once these driver/bes2600/ series land in mainline (or at least in
DanctNIX's PineTab2 kernel base):
- ohm's manifest drops the
bes2600-dkmspackage dependency kernel-agentbuilds the in-tree variant via the series listed heremarfrit/bes2600-dkmsrepo gets archived (kept as history)- PineTab2 buyers from then on get bes2600 directly out of the kernel
Track the dropdown in fleet/ohm.yaml (replaces_dkms: bes2600-dkms
once the cumulative series is enough to replace it).
Cumulative-patch generation order
The current single-patch cumulative (0001-bes2600-besser-cumulative-series.patch
in the existing PKGBUILD) is generated in this order on boltzmann:
A, B, C v3, F, G, D, E, C2, c5.x, c6.x, c7, H
This is NOT alphabetical — C2 follows E rather than coming after
C v3. ka-promote MUST honor an explicit series-ordering field
when concatenating, not sort by series name. Field name TBD; suggest
adding apply_order: to fleet/ohm.yaml (issue #5 will surface this
when the cumulative gets regenerated).
