ChromeOS ARM64 userspace has hit the beta channel for some boards https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/chromium-os-dev/c/GdZ0mebutXw

I am posting this here for greater visibility. If anyone has a trogdor based chromebook, the beta for chromeOS should be using an ARM64 userspace RIGHT NOW.

Recovery images are not available for this and probably won't be for a few more months until it hits stable. If anyone here sees this and has a trogdor based chromebook please use the beta channel and check for an arm64 widevine module.

trogdor may not be the only device with ARM64 userspace on the beta. cherry, corsola, jacuzzi, and kevin also have ARM64 userspace preparred in the CI but its not be confirmed whether or not these devices are using ARM64 userspace now or not.

Good one! I checked the trogdor boards and picked a random one from recovery.json, the Libera-Merdeka Chromebook C100/C110/C120/C150 with hwidmatch=^PAZQUEL-HGNV .*. I found the ID of this device in this list: 9023C063-08D6-4A4F-908C-BCF97DE8BA69. Now we can make a request to the Omaha update service to get the latest dev-channel image:

So the resulting image is: http://edgedl.me.gvt1.com/edgedl/chromeos/trogdor/15329.8.0/dev-channel/chromeos_15329.8.0_trogdor_dev-channel_full_mp-v7.bin-gyzwiyjsgrstofwmrqotalztdgqyfxjj.signed

I don't have time to figure out how to extract the contents of this file, but that should be possible. The file format is described here: https://chromium.googlesource.com/aosp/platform/system/update_engine/+/HEAD/#update-payload-file-specification

@Niek lucky for use someone else has already written a tool to extract these payloads, I used https://github.com/tobyxdd/android-ota-payload-extractor

https://github.com/theofficialgman/testing/releases/download/gmans-releases/WidevineCdm.tar.gz

I can't seem to get it working though on chromium

unforuntatly it working with nothing but chromeOS right now

firstly you have this problem as described here: https://thebrokenrail.com/2022/12/31/xfinity-stream-on-linux.html#how-do-i-actually-do-this you have to patch and rebuid your system GLIBC in order to even allow the library to load (no small feat)

and then you have the problem that since arm64 widevine doesn't normally exist for linux, browsers (all of that I have found except for rpm fusion chromium-freeworld) have widevine loading disabled and don't even attempt to load it.

At this point I wonder if it'd be easier to patch the CDM itself

Or just create some sort of shim that does the same thing

Like, it might be easier to just defeat the DRM altogether.

Interesting resource on how glibc was patched in PiOS: raspberrypi/Raspberry-Pi-OS-64bit#11 (comment)

Thanks for the extracted tarball, @theofficialgman! Seems like the URL will be: https://dl.google.com/widevine-cdm/4.10.2557.0-cros-arm64.zip (404 at the time of writing).

When trying to load the library I get a symbol lookup error undefined symbol: __aarch64_ldadd4_acq_rel on Ubuntu 22.04. On Ubuntu 22.10 I get the DT_RELR without GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR dependency error mentioned before. Instead of patching glibc, this could probably be resolved with a small LD_PRELOADed library. Ideally, the ChromeOS toolchain will update to a newer glibc version so this error won't happen in future builds.

I have never seen any other chromeos (cros) links there. only windows and linux (win x64 and arm64, and linux x64)

Thank You @teacupx @theofficialgman and all the guys involved in this thread ❤️ .
I was successfully able to run widewine needed playback on Kodi 19.4 on Arm64 with some modification to Input Stream Helper Plugin using the libwidevinecdm.so aarch64 version.

Widewine CDM on Kodi for Arm64 is a thing now.
Thanks to all of you again <3
