A fork of the Linux kernel source maintained by Rockchip as the Board Support Package (BSP) kernel for their SoCs. It provides Rockchip-specific drivers and patches needed to boot and run Linux on Rockchip-based boards.

Use cases

  • build a Linux kernel for a Rockchip RK3399 or RK3588 board
  • get working GPU, NPU, or video drivers on Rockchip hardware
  • customize kernel config for a Rockchip single-board computer
  • port Linux to a custom Rockchip-based device
  • debug hardware support issues on Rockchip SoCs

When to choose

  • you need Rockchip BSP-specific drivers not yet in mainline Linux
  • building firmware for Rockchip evaluation boards or SBCs
  • vendor-supported kernel is required for your Rockchip product

When to avoid

  • your board is well supported by mainline Linux kernel
  • you want a generic kernel for non-Rockchip hardware
  • you need a permissively licensed codebase (license is not standard OSS)
