March 2026 monthly summary for nxp-upstream/zephyr. Delivered end-to-end Realtek Bee series support and enhanced input handling, with broad test coverage and documentation updates to support adoption on new hardware. Implemented Realtek Bee series support across tests and GPIO, including counter_basic_api, i2c_api, and gpio_basic_api test coverage and new rtl87x2g_evb_a_rtl8762gku / rtl8752h_evb_rtl8752hjl board configurations; updated GPIO safety checks and board overlays; expanded RTL documentation for Realtek Bee series. Enhanced keyboard matrix functionality with ghost-key detection, per-key debouncing, and microsecond-based polling, plus Devicetree binding updates and a migration notice for polling properties. Added safeguards for safe operation, e.g., -ENOTSUP for simultaneous input/output on Bee GPIO. Documentation and tooling updates include updated Realtek Bee docs and migration notes for polling DT properties (poll-period-us) to improve reliability and developer experience.

February 2026 monthly summary focusing on delivered business and technical outcomes across two Zephyr repositories, with Realtek Bee series hardware support expansion and HAL updates.

January 2026: Delivered end-to-end Realtek platform support in Zephyr for Bee and RTL8752H SoCs, including HAL integration via Kconfig and initial CMake wiring, plus core drivers (clock, pinctrl, GPIO, and serial) to enable full hardware bring-up and operation on Realtek hardware. This work increases hardware coverage, shortens porting cycles for Realtek devices, and demonstrates strong CMake/Kconfig and driver development skills.
