The BCM2711 has two USB 2.0 IPs: A Broadcom XHCI USB 2.0 controller and
a Synopsys DWC2 USB 2.0 Host/Device controller. When USB boot is used
the former is active. Make sure the driver has the correct device tree
compatible.
* Add NVMe and XHCI USB driver fix for Raspberry Pi
Add patch which fixes NVMe read reliability and allows to compile the
XHCI USB driver (for Compute Module 4).
* Enable Broadcom XHCI driver for Compute Module 4
The BCM2711 has two USB 2.0 IPs: A Broadcom XHCI USB 2.0 controller and
a Synopsys DWC2 USB 2.0 Host/Device controller. When USB boot is used
the former is active. Make sure U-Boot has the driver built-in for that
IP.
* Add U-Boot patches for NVMe boot support
Add NVMe to boot order. Fix NVMe support on 64-bit Raspberry Pi devices.
This is useful for Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 IO Board where a native
NVMe can be plugged in.
* Enable NVMe support for Raspberry Pi 4
Our machine configuration rpi4 and rpi4_64 work on the Compute Module IO
Board. In this configuration a NVMe SSD can be used. Therefor, enable
support for NVMe in the Raspberry Pi 4 configurations.
Note: Regular Raspberry Pi devices will not notice a difference as the
"nvme scan" command will return very quickly and not find a NVMe on the
PCIe bus.
* Use built-in NVMe support in Kernel for NVMe boot support
The bump to U-Boot 2021.10-rc5 also makes quite some patches obsolete
since they are already part of U-Boot.
This also removes a patch which disables framebuffer support on
Raspberry Pi: Framebuffer support seems to work fine in todays
U-Boot/Linux combination. It can help debug boot problems on Raspberry
Pi devices. Without the patch framebuffer support will be enabled by
default.
Some USB devices cause the USB stack to get stuck with a stall error.
This adds a patch which recovers from this situation.
This avoids an U-Boot crash when Arduino Mega R3 devices are connected,
which cause an USB stall when trying to read the product string.
When a USB keyboard is connected to Raspberry Pi 32-bit versions of
U-Boot crashed in certain situations just before booting Linux. This
seems to be cause by a buffer overflow when removing the USB keyboard
before hand-over to Linux.
Since 0001-CMD-read-string-from-fileinto-env.patch is in the global
directory to be applied for U-Boot, drop it from the Raspberry Pi
specific patch directory.
* Re-add patches missed with U-Boot 2021.04-rc4 upgrade
Also add patches for Raspberry Pi again.
* Regenerate patches for U-Boot 2021.04
* Update to U-Boot 2021.04
Bump to the latest U-Boot release 2021.04-rc4. This alows to drop quite
some patches which have been sent to the mailing list or picked from the
mailing list and have been merged upstream now.
The patch causes U-Boot freezes in some configurations. The root cause
is that U-Boot does not allow to use the bss section in pre-relocation
code (which is where the UART is used). Drop the patch as it is not
required currently.
