[Bug 1934791] Re: SRU u-boot to focal to enable HiFive Unmatched booting

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package u-boot - 2021.01+dfsg-3ubuntu0~20.04.1

---------------
u-boot (2021.01+dfsg-3ubuntu0~20.04.1) focal; urgency=medium

  * SRU of 2021.01+dfsg-3 from hirsute to enable booting on HiFive Unmatched
    LP: #1934791, LP: #1925267, LP: #1923162

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Import meta-sifive u-boot patches.
  * Enable sifive_hifive_unmatched_fu740 target.
  * Build-depend on opensbi with fu740 errata fix.
  * Set default FDT files for the sifive boards.
  * Set USE_PREBOOT on unmatched board too (just like unleashed & qemu),
    otherwise u-boot's fdtfile from itb is not used (i.e. when
    extlinux.conf does not specify fdtdir). LP: #1923162
  * Unapply unmatched patches, whilst building unleashed platform. Fixes
    failure to boot from sd-card on Unleashed. LP: #1924761
  * sifive-unleashed-default-fdt-files.patch: split into unleashed &
    unmatched separate patches, for ease of upstreaming to meta-sifive and
    u-boot upstreams. Also this ensures that unleashed target is built
    with fdtfile= set, as unleashed target unapplies lots of patches.
  * Apply upstreamed patch "cmd: pxe_utils: sysboot: fix crash if either
    board or soc are not set." This fixes a crash booting any
    extlinux.conf with fdtdir specified, and dtbfile not set and
    "soc"/"board" not set in the environment LP: #1923162

  [ William 'jawn-smith' Wilson ]
  * Re-added d/p/lzo-to-lzno.patch as lzop is in universe prior to Groovy
  * Updated d/targets for compatibility with focal arm-trusted-firmware
  * Updated d/control for compatibility with focal debhelper
  * Reinstate rpi-config-migration script for focal
  * Prevent stripping of qemu binaries under focal where strip doesn't
    recognize the format

  [ Dave Jones ]
  * In d/control update opensbi dependency for focal

Title:
  SRU u-boot to focal to enable HiFive Unmatched booting

Status in u-boot package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in u-boot source package in Focal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In order to boot Ubuntu 20.04 on the Unmatched, the version of u-boot
  currently in hirsute will need to be SRU'd to focal.

  Raspberry pi core and classic images will need to be tested with this
  new version of u-boot as well to ensure nothing was broken by the SRU.

  [Impact]

   * Without the hirsute version of u-boot, the HiFive Unmatched
     will not boot focal

  [Test Case]

  For RISC-V "unmatched" boards:
   * Attempt to build a HiFive Unmatched image with 
     u-boot 2020.10+dfsg-1ubuntu0~20.04.2
   * Note that it fails to build
   * Build image with u-boot from proposed
   * Attempt to boot the Unmatched with the new version of u-boot
   * Verify that u-boot is able to load the kernel

  For Raspberry Pi boards (2, 3, 3+, 4 (inc. 8GB variant), 400, CM4):
   * Flash focal image to an SD card and boot it on the relevant Pi
   * Ensure card is fully up to date (sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade)
   * Enable proposed (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed)
   * Update u-boot (sudo apt install u-boot-rpi)
   * Check reboot still boots successfully (sudo reboot)

  [Regression Potential]

  There are multiple changes being SRU'd, but since we know they all
  work in hirsute on these models the risk is fairly low. Attempts to
  boot all the supported Raspberry pi models should still be made to
  ensure no regression.
