Enable virt/kvm on the kernel for (at least) firmware-nanopi6 and firmware-nanopi5 #6403
-
Would it be possible to consider enabling kernel virtualisation for the more powerful devices such as NanoPI R6S and R5S? CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION=y Thanks, |

we don't maintain own kernel for NanoPi. On R5 und R6 its original vendor kernel. |

@Ewertton, I'm assuming you can compile on the same node and I'm assuming you have compiled a kernel. So, install these required packages on DietPI: Clone the kernel:
Dump the kernel config with
Run
Copy over the modules that were stored in "out-modules" into /lib/modules/5.10.110
Before doing that, make sure that the above partitions are right with |

Jep, here are the kernel sources: https://github.com/friendlyarm/kernel-rockchip/tree/nanopi5-v5.10.y_opt
Here the config for NanoPi 6 series: https://github.com/friendlyarm/kernel-rockchip/blob/nanopi5-v5.10.y_opt/arch/arm64/configs/nanopi6_linux_defconfig
Armbian is also working on support for R6S. They use the same kernel sources but own builds with virtualization most likely enabled. Once this is ready, we will switch. If mainline Linux + U-Boot support is there at some point, we may also do own kernel builds, but currently, with Debian Bookworm release next week, time does not permit to look deeper into it.
