Changelog
flash-kernel (3.90ubuntu1) bionic; urgency=medium
[ Balint Reczey ]
* Merge with Debian (LP: #1743771)
- remaining changes:
- add "quiet splash" as default options to omap bootscr
- re-add support for the FLASH_KERNEL_SKIP env variable, so the image
build infrastructure has a chance to skip the automated flash-kernel
run during image builds.
- bootscr.highbank: allow more space to load larger kernels
- Add support for Calxeda Highbank (with bootscr.highbank different from
Debian's version)
- Re-add support for Marvell ArmadaXP
- Fix armadaxp kernel load address
- use umount -l in the cleanup function, else we fail while finishing up
with the script
- add DB entry for "OMAP3 Beagle Board" (funnily thats missing)
- add Panda to the list of supported board in the README file
- debian/control: Re-add omap and omap4 to the flash-kernel-installer
XB-Subarchitecture field. These appear to have been lost somewhere
along the way.
- Also add omap and omap4 to flash-kernel-installer.isinstallable.
- add a diversion for update-initramfs to live-installers
post-base-installer.d to avoid update-initramfs runs before
flash-kernel is configured
- add a check for the diverted update-initramfs to
flash-kernel-installer, so it gets reverted before we try to call
update-initramfs
- make post-base-installer.d/01flash-kernel-diversion actually an
executable shell script
- switch omap3 and omap4 to uEnv.txt/preEnv.txt (the former holds all
active boot commands, the latter holds the kernel commandline only)
- enable UUID detection of the currently used root device
- if uEnv.txt is defined in the db for an arch, generate preEnv.txt from
UBOOT_DEFAULTS and UUID detection data
- switch omap3 and omap4 from Bootloader-sets-root: no to yes, we now
generate a root=UUID= line on the fly for arches using
uEnv.txt/preEnv.txt
- introduce bootscript/uEnvtxt.omap
- do not move the original uEnvtxt.omap to the target, use a copy instead
- initramfs-tools/hooks/flash_kernel_set_root:
- make sure that if we dont want to override the bootloader root=
option by setting "Bootloader-sets-root: yes", we actually dont do it
- Also check for FLASH_KERNEL_SKIP to avoid setting up the root
parameter in case flash-kernel will not be used
- this is a slightly different approach to fix the bug than
the patch attached to the bug.
- hide the boot device from udisk's automounting after installation
on all systems using uEnv.txt to configure u-boot
- make sure we only rename the bootrom partition so udisks hides it,
when using mkdosfs for setting the label like we did in jasper (where
we cached the contents before doing this) MLO and u-boot.bin are gone
- make sure that /dev is bind mounted in /target when running
update-initramfs from flash-kernel-installer, else we do not find the
boot media (this is only a workaround, actual fixing of
the netinst environment is needed to fix this properly)
- add support for the grouper architecture
- make sure blkid only gives us the UUID and not any other metadata like
labels or filesystem
- drop the "|| true" from the initramfs building code, if we fail here we
actually dont want to attempt to flash that
- Do not run flash-kernel inside an LXC container
- Accept "generic" as a valid kernel flavor on highbank
- Add support for Calxeda ECX-2000 to the machine DB
- Add generic-lpae to the XB-Subarchitecture list in debian/control
- Update the Highbank entry in DB to use its device-tree model name
- Fix the testsuite to work with the new DT model support and add
a new test to specifically try to use a DT instead of cpuinfo.
- And now fix the quoting error exposed by the fixed testsuite.
- debian/flash-kernel-installer.isinstallable: add arm*/generic-lpae
- Fix typo in dtb_kver test that made it break all non-dtb platforms.
- Add support for EXYNOS5440-based platforms
- Added support for HP ProLiant m800 Server Cartridge
- Filter the selection of 'latest' usable kernel through the
whitelist.
- Do not fail if there are no specified Kernel-Flavors for this machine.
- HP Moonshot Cartridges: Use $baudrate from u-boot environment as
serial console speed
- HP Moonshot Cartridges: Enable hardware flow control as required by
the HP moonshot chassis
- Enable U-Boot environment support for X-Gene platforms
- Use filesystem agnostic "load" command instead of assuming ext4
- Add support for HP ProLiant m800 cartridges
- Set required boot arguments for HP ProLiant m800 cartridges
- Allow us to find DTBs in both the old flat layout and the new vendor
subdirectory layout, so we keep backward compatibility
- Wandboard: Use /dev/disk/by-path/platform-2198000.usdhc-part1
instead of the hardcoded mmcblk1p1, this should make things work on
boards with just a single microSD card in.
- make the package postinst respect FLASH_KERNEL_SKIP
- Call systemd-detect-virt instead of the Ubuntu specific
running-in-container wrapper.
- Extend support for the RPi2 to actually install the kernel/initramfs
on the fat partition, and provide a uboot boot script based on the one
used for Snappy images.
- Extend functions to support generating uboot.env images, as an
alternative to boot.scr and uEnv.txt, and use this for RPi2 as well.
- Adjust the uboot.env.rpi2 to use the one Paolo Pisati has tested,
instead of trying to base on the Snappy one, which is failing to boot.
- Adjust the size of uboot.env based on empirical results on the rpi2.
- dropped changes, merged in Debian:
- make sure the call to abootimg -i does not make the script fail
(checking non bootimg devices makes it return 1 even though there
is no error, this in turn makes teh whole script fail since we run
with "set -e")
- determine the latest installer kernel version in the target rootfs
instead of assuming the version is the same as the running kernel
- flash-plugin-installer: make installable on armhf/generic for highbank
- Also update XB-Subarchitecture to use "generic" instead of 'highbank"
- Extending Android specific options to cover the Ubuntu Touch use cases
(flashing to a specific device and support skipping initrd)
- Enabling support for mako (Nexus 4)
- Fix get_kfile_suffix() function to deal with flavours with dashes.
- Apply patch from Paolo Pisati for appended DTB support
- Add basic support for WandBoard Quad.
- flash-kernel-installer: make installable on armhf/exynos5
- Add support for APM X-Gene
- Add support for installing dtb files in boot partition; activate this
for APM X-Gene boards
- Add support for HP ProLiant m400 Server Cartridges
- Update APM X-Gene config to match upstream device tree filename/model
- Add a bootscript specific to X-Gene Mustang boards since they need to
pull their dtb from the OS.
- db/all.db: add dummy entries as noops when running on VMs
- Add U-Boot environment configuration support
- Cherry pick from Debian: Succeed but do nothing when run on an
unknown machine which was booted via EFI.
- Add support for the Raspberry Pi2; thanks to Paolo Pisati
- Cherry-pick fixes from Debian to support copying kernel/initrd to
destination.
- Add Raspberry Pi 3 support
- Add support for gzip-compressed kernel images
- Adjust rpi2/3 dtb address from 0x100 to 0x02000000
- Add support for QCT APQ8064 CDP; thanks Alfonso Sanchez-Beato.
- Check /proc/device-tree/model before /proc/cpuinfo
- dropped obsoleted changes:
- add very very ugly temporary workaround to make quantal A3 arm server
installs possible (yes, i suck)
- re-add a diversion for update-initramfs to live-installers
post-base-installer.d to avoid update-initramfs runs before
flash-kernel is configured
- re-add a check for the diverted update-initramfs to
flash-kernel-installer, so it gets reverted before we try to call
update-initramfs
- drop teh super ugly hack that added a /var/lib/flash-kernel/configured
file to actually check if flash-kernel is configured
- sigh, not only drop the creation of /var/lib/flash-kernel/configured
but also the check for its existance, else we will always exit 0
- make post-base-installer.d/01flash-kernel-diversion executable
- flash-kernel-installer.postinst: now that we have a diversion in place
there isnt a pre-existing initrd, instead of calling
update-initramfs -u we better call update-initramfs -c -k all to create
one from scratch
- seemingly -k all doesnt want to work with -c, use -k $(uname -r) for
now
- enable generation of a /etc/default/flash-kernel file from
flash-kernel-installer holding a UBOOT_DEFAULTS variable with distro
default settings (ro quiet splash)
- make /etc/default/flash-kernel a proper conffile
- Added support for user defined uboot environment variables
* Update tests with new fields: Android-Skip-Initrd, Bootloader-sets-root,
DTB-Kernel-Version
* Migrate default /etc/default/flash-kernel content to new default without asking via debconf

Cascadian (Closes: #783074):
- If ${console} is set then add "console=${console}" to the bootargs.
- Boot the kernel using the versioned filenames in preference to the
generic symlinks.
- Log which kernel (if known) and device we are booting from.
- Workaround lack of baudrate included with console on various iMX
system.
* Install dtbs into /boot/dtbs/$kvers. Based on a patch from Vagrant
Cascadian. Retain links at /boot/dtb and /boot/dtb-$kvers (Closes: #783073)
* Switch boot scripts using $kvers to boot a specific kernel (rather than via
the vmlinuz symlink) to prefer ${fk_kvers} if set in the environment,
allowing a rudimentary ability to select which kernel to boot.
