> As a fun aside, those touchscreen controller and display controller are the same IP blocks as present in certain mobile iDevices, so if someone wants to use checkra1n to put full Linux on their iPhones, some of that work is now done for you ;)

Holy cow! Proper (mainline) Linux support for iDevices would be a dream.
I'm a big fan of postmarketOS. I recently nabbed a Samsung Galaxy A5 and put pmOS on it. Phosh, the mobile shell, renders its views at buttery smooth 60fps. Just about all hardware on the device is supported: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_A5_2015_(s...
The idea that pmOS could someday run natively on iPhones is really exciting to me.
