You are right, they are not set. I will try to rebuild the kernel even though it is my first time :) # CONFIG_PINCTRL_SC8180X is not set # CONFIG_PINCTRL_SC8280XP is not set # CONFIG_INTERCONNECT_QCOM_SC8180X is not set # CONFIG_INTERCONNECT_QCOM_SC8280XP is not set > Contact the folks who worked on mainline Linux kernel support for > SC8180X and ask for help figuring out where/if the support for SC8180XP > landed and how to debug the issue.

Right, I am not an expert, but I came to the same conclusion. Best Regards, Alfredo
