[Bug 1937277] Re: [SRU] OpenSBI 0.9 backport to Focal

[Brian Murray]

Hello Heinrich, or anyone else affected,

Accepted u-boot into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/u-boot/2021.01+dfsg-3ubuntu0~20.04.3
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  OpenSBI 0.9 backport to Focal

  [Impact]
  * OpenSBI is used to create RISC-V images for various boards and to boot RISC-V virtual machines.
   * Our current 0.8 release lacks a patch for CPU erratum CIP-1200 described in Errata_FU740-C000_20210205 from https://www.sifive.com/boards/hifive-unmatched
   * Bugs in OpenSBI that may lead to crashes have been resolved in v0.9.

  [Test Case]

   * Build U-Boot with new OpenSBI version and boot Focal images with
  this U-Boot installed.

  [Where problems could occur]

   * Parts of the OpenSBI code where restructured, new SBI extensions
  were added. Bugs in the modified code might lead to failure to boot,
  reboot, poweroff or might lead to crashes.

  [Other Info]

  Here are the release notes for OpenSBI Version 0.9:

  This release has:

  Lots of fixes and improvements
  Optimized trap handler for both RV32 and RV64
  Domain support for system-level partitioning
