I pulled the trigger on a RockPro64 4gb this morning. The RockPro64 has the Mali T860 gpu (supports OpenGL 3.2).
I have a Pine64 A64+ 2gb. Just a couple of days ago, I built a preempt_rt kernel for it running on armbian Stretch. I cloned the raspberrypi/linux repository (it had the latest good arm sources). I downloaded the source for 4.19.25, I downloaded the patches 4.19.25 from kernel.org <http://kernel.org/>. At that time the latest patches for 4.19.y was 4.19.27. and applied the corresponding preempt_rt patch for it. I used the make menuconfig option. Now just a few days later the latest patches are for 4.19.31. They are working very hard to integrate preempt_rt into mainstream. Pine64’s A64+, Rock64 and RockPro64 are hardware options in the menuconfig. So far, I have had no problems that I can trace to the kernel. When my RockPro64 arrives I will try to build the preempt_rt kernel for it.
