Technically, the Tizen DDK is not licensed to be used with any other silicon other than Samsung's chips. From the license agreement it reads:
2.2.2 The Software should be used with silicon chipset manufactured by Licensor.
Where Licensor == Samsung. So sure, you can use it with the Allwinner chips that use a Mali GPU but you're doing so illegally. Let your conscience be your guide.
In general, it would be nice to have Wayland integration without the legal cloud hanging over the implementation. It's a shame Samsung chose to lock the DDK to their chips.
Has there been any movement on this? It looks like there's be alot of sunxi stuff commit to the kernel repos since 2014. Any of it get us closer to wayland and wayland-egl?
I'm wondering if anyone had already tried integrating in meta-sunxi the blobs released by the Bootlin, which should provide Wayland support: https://bootlin.com/blog/more-opengl-binaries-for-the-mali-support-on-allwinner-platforms-with-mainline-linux/ https://github.com/bootlin/mali-blobs/tree/master/r6p2/arm
I am going to give them a try and report if I come up with something useful.
I was able to use rockchip mali450 userspace drivers on Amlogic without problem but still you will need to start with match kernel drivers https://github.com/rockchip-linux/libmali
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I will start with the driver. I believe that the driver for sunxi is this one: https://github.com/mripard/sunxi-mali https://bootlin.com/blog/mali-opengl-support-on-allwinner-platforms-with-mainline-linux/
