* Add support for a bootloader watchdog
Add support for a boot watchdog (using PM_RSTC hw wdog) which will
trigger if the OS is not started within the specified amount of time. The
watchdog is enabled by setting the BOOT_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT=N (seconds)
property in the bootlaoder config.
The BOOT_WATCHDOG_PARTITION=P property can be set to pass a different
partition number to the bootloader on reset if the watchdog
is triggered.
The boot watchdog is automatically cleared just before starting
the OS and (optionally) enabling the kernel watchdog.
* pi5: Add a temperature monitor
In early releases of the bootloader the fan would always be on
during boot which can be distracting. Later releases switch off the
fan until the OS has booted.
This change adds some basic fan control from the bootloader to
enable the fan if the temperature is above 85C.
This may be useful if the Pi was shutdown by the OS because the
temperature limit was exceeded.
Since the Linux hwmon is not active at this stage the bootloader
now implements the same logic to power off the Pi if the chips
is more than 110C.
The PMIC hardware automatically cuts power if the temperature
is more than 125C.
* Skip first SD boot if no card detected
On platforms with an SD Card detect signal, skip the first attempt to
boot from SD if the card appears to be absent. This can save over a
second on a cold boot, and a little under a second for a reboot.
* NVMe: Fix loading of files > 32MB
Fix an NVMe boot bug which caused large contiguous reads >= 32MB to fail
* Update setting alpha for 2712D0
D0 moved the alpha blend mode from CTL2 to CTL0.
Update the bootloader code to follow suit for those using
the simple framebuffer
* dtoverlay: Fix node_is_enabled for implicit status
The absence of a status property implies that a node is enabled. Update
dtoverlay_node_is_enabled to match that behaviour.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1970
* arm_loader: GET_CLOCKS: Set useful response length
The kernel's firmware mailbox API does not make the actual length of the
response available to clients, but other implementations may care.
Continue to pad the GET_CLOCKS buffer with zeroes, but set the response
length to minimally contain the useful content.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1969
* arm_loader: Correct some mailbox response lengths
The GET_GENCMD_RESULT mailbox handler was setting the wrong response
length, and GET_FIRMWARE_COMMIT_HASH and GET_FIRMWARE_VARIANT were not
setting any length.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1968
* Signed boot and HTTP boot mode
HTTP boot mode is supposed to be disabled if signed boot is enabled and
a host is not specified. The code is checking the http_secure flag to
enforce this. But this is valid now we support custom CA certs.
Only disable HTTP mode if we're using the default HOST.
* Implement TCP window for net boot
The minimal IP stack used for https booting lacks the ability to cache
packets received out of order, which can lead to severe slowdown when
it happens. The problem seems to affect some ISPs more than others.
The receive window implemented here copes with packet losses of 10%.
* netboot: Correct the TCP MSS
* rp1_net: Overwrite the length field
Although concise, ORing in the packet length runs the risk of leaving
some unwanted bits set. Ensure the length field is cleared before
ORing in the required value.
* Correct msecs in debug timestamps
The fractional part of timestamps in UART debug output was showing the
100ths and 1000ths of a second, rather than 10ths and 100ths, causing
strange sequences that appear to jump backwards.
* Implement GET_BOARD_MAC_ADDRESS on Pi5
The Pi 5 EEPROM implements a subset of the original mailbox properties.
Add GET_BOARD_MAC_ADDRESS to the subset.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/698
* Ensure the initramfs matches the kernel
As far as is possible, both the kernel and initramfs are matched to the
device. However, where multiple kernel variants can run on a device, the
initramfs must be matched to the chosen kernel. Make that the sole rule
for initramfs selection, rather than duplicating the device matching
logic.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1965
* Enable logging messages from OS loader
Pi 5 EEPROM builds were missing the output from the main OS loading
function, including some important diagnostics. Enabling the logging
output from this loader code results in some near-duplicates, but is
more user friendly and is available via "sudo vclog -m".
* arm_dt: Revert to using the max fan speed
It has been reported that the presence of a cooling fan at boot time
can lead to a maximum observed fan speed of ~300 but a current speed
of 0. The absence of a fan results in 0s for both metrics.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/690
* os_check: cm5: Check for CM5 specific dtbs
Check for BCM2712 support in bcm2712-rpi-cm5-cm5io.dtb
or bcm2712-rpi-cm5l-cm5io.dtb on CM5 instead of bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dtb.
This avoids needing to put os_check=1 or specifying device_tree
in config.txt in minimal images for CM5.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/682
* Log the fan speed at boot
Record the fan RPM (and the maximum seen) during boot, so that it is
accessible using "sudo vclog -m".
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/678
* Add current_supply to HAT+ support
Refactor the HAT library to make it more self-contained, and combine
the I2C address detection and the reading of the EEPROM contents.
Use it to allow the earlier boot stages to check for a current_supply
setting in the EEPROM of a normal (non-stackable) HAT+.
* Update SDRAM init timings to intermittent 8-flash SDRAM init errors
on some boards.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/67
* config: Fix missing initialisation of selected_expr to 1 in config.txt
Without an [all] section the new expression filter might default to
false. This impacts the bootloader early parsing of config.txt
for things like boot_ramdisk rather than the later config.txt pass
for device-tree parsing.
* config_loader: Add support [boot_partition=N] as an expression filter
The boot_partition tests whether the partition number N matches
the number that the system is booting from. This expression is
only supported in config.txt and is designed to make it easier
to have common boot.img ramdisks in an A/B system where the
conditional loads a different cmdline.txt file depending on
which partition boot.img is loaded from.
* Fix pull configuration on 2712D0
2712D0 uses a horrendously sparse set of pad control registers. Make
the pull-setting code sufficiently complex to cope.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/672
* Disable UARTA for CM5s without WiFi
Just as CM5s without WiFI don't need the SDIO interface, the Bluetooth
UART is unconnected. Disable the DT node to avoid kernel warnings and
save some cycles.
* recovery: Walk partitions to delete recovery.bin
Previously, recovery.bin would fail to delete itself
if the bootrom loaded recovery.bin where there are multiple FAT
partitions and the first partition does not contain recovery.bin
Update the rename code to walk the partition table to find
the recovery.bin file to delete.
* pi5: Add config filter for simple boot variable expressions (experimental)
Add support for a new bootloader/config.txt conditional filter
which tests the partition, boot_count and boot_arg1 variables.
Syntax (no spaces):
ARG boot_arg1, boot_count or partition (EEPROM config stage only)
[ARG=VALUE] selected if (ARG == VALUE)
[ARG&MASK] selected if ((ARG & VALUE) != 0))
[ARG&MASK=VALUE] selected if ((ARG & MASK) == VALUE)
[ARG<VALUE] selected if (ARG < VALUE)
[ARG>VALUE] selected if (ARG > VALUE)
where VALUE and MASK are unsigned integer constants and ARG
corresponds to the value in the reset register before the
config file is parsed.
* pi5: Add a boot-count bootloader variable (experimental)
Store the boot-count in a reset register and increment just
before the boot-order state-machine. The boot-count variable
is visible via device-tree /proc/device-tree/chosen/bootloader/count
and can be read/set via vcmailbox
GET: sudo vcmailbox 0x0003008d 4 4 0
SET to N: sudo vcmailbox 0x0003808d 4 4 N
* pi5: Add user-defined reboot argument (boot_arg1) (experimental)
Add support for a user-defined boot parameter stored in a reset-safe
scratch register on BCM2712. This is visible via device-tree at
/proc/device-tree/chosen/bootloader/arg1 and via vcmailboxes
GET arg1: sudo vcmailbox 0x0003008c 8 8 1 0
SET arg1 to 42: sudo vcmailbox 0x0003808c 8 8 1 42
or via config.txt
set_reboot_arg1=42
The variable is NOT cleared automatically and will persist until
a power-on-reset.
* Enable overriding of high partition numbers
Previously, the PARTITION=N bootloader config setting would only
be used at power on reset or if the partition number passed to
reboot was zero.
Change the behaviour so that the bootloader config PARTITION
property can override the reboot partition number if the reboot
parameter is > 31.
* Disable WiFi PMIC output on CM5 modules without WiFi
Disable the 3.7V WiFi power supply on CM5 modules which do not have a
WiFi module fitted. This fixes some stability issues where a CM5
would shutdown due to a spurious over-voltage condition on the
non-connected WiFi power supply.
* Add memory barrier to the mbox handler
Firmware issue 1944 reports receiving kernel warnings about firmware
requests where the status return code is 0. This should not be
possible, as handle_mbox_property always sets the top bit of the return
code, with the bottom bit indicating success or failure. If the firmware
had died, the firmware driver would report a timeout due to the lack of
a mailbox interrupt, and that isn't happening.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1944
* support dts files with size-cells of 2
DTS files with a top-level #size-cells of 2 make a lot of sense for
systems with a lot of RAM, but the firmware is currently inconsistent
in its support for that. Fix up the other cases to honor #size-cells
and #address-cells.
* Disable SDIO2 for CM5s without WiFi
It has been observed that CM5s without WiFi hang on reboot. To prevent
that, disable the sdio2 node on those devices.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/6647
* arm_dt: Use dtoverlay_enable_node
Convert the open-coded DT node status changes to use the new dtoverlay
method dtoverlay_enable_node.
* dtoverlay: Add dtoverlay_enable_node
Add a helper function for setting the status of a node.
* Walk the partition table if the requested partition is not bootable
Previously, if the specified boot partition was not bootable the
bootloader would stop and advance to the next BOOT_ORDER. If the
new PARTITION_WALK option is set to 1 the bootloader will now
check each partition in turn starting from the specified partition
before advancing the BOOT_ORDER.
This feature is intended for use with A/B systems to handle the case
where autoboot.txt is missing / corrupted. This change enables
the system to failover to the next available bootable partition.
The autoboot.txt file is not scanned during the partition-walk
phase i.e. there is no recursive processing of autoboot.txt files.
This option is only supported on physical block devices
(SD, NVMe, USB) and not RAMDISK. USB assumes a single high speed
device, partition walks on multiple USB devices is not recommended
and may cause timeouts.
* Improve keyboard handling in boot menu
Try and make it more likely that we have enough time to perform key
detection.
Ignore mice, which were being enumerated and slowing things down.
* Add DT /chosen property signed-boot boot.img hash
Make the sha256 hash of the boot.img file available via
device-tree /proc/device-tree/chosen/bootloader/boot_img_sha256 if
signed boot is enabled.
* filesystem: GPT autoboot/reboot partition number fixes for Pi4 and older
* Fix problems when setting arm_freq_min=arm_freq and display clocks
if performance governor is not enabled.
* Add set_reboot_order API and config.txt properties
If set_reboot_order is defined in config.txt or set via vcmailbox
then this will override the bootloader config BOOT_ORDER property
on the next reboot. The parameter is stored in a reset safe register
and is cleared by the bootloader after reading it.
Typically, the config.txt value only be used via rpiboot to
override the boot-order on the next reboot. Otherwise, it should
reside in a conditional section so that the boot order is not
overridden on every reboot.
Example, test network boot
sudo vcmailbox 0x0003808b 4 4 0xf4612; sudo reboot
* Improved SDRAM refresh timings for Pi5 - 16GB
* Add an option to wait for the power button to be pressed before booting.
If POWER_OFF_ON_HALT=1 and WAIT_FOR_POWER_BTN=1 in the bootloader
config then the bootloader will wait for either the power button
to be pressed or an RTC alarm before booting. The wait state
switches the PMIC to STANDBY mode which is the lowest possible
power state.
* Stop the fan after after fan-probe
After the fan-probe has completed drive the fan PWM GPIO
to high if a fan was detected and let the OS take over.
* Add SD_QUIRKS for hardware bringup / workarounds
Add a new SD_QUIRKS flags property which can be used to
disable high-speed mode (bit 0). Other bits are reserved for
future use.
* Change uart_2ndstage default to 1 on Pi5
Change the default to 1 because this gives useful diagnostics
for device-tree loading with minimal overhead. Set uart_2ndstage=0
or BOOT_UART=0 to disable this.
* Move M.2 HAT+ detection to early boot.
Initialse M.2 HAT+ detection before DDR init to give NVMe
drive firmware more time to boot.
* Disable fan PWM before shutdown
Drive the RP1 fan PWM GPIO high before entering the VPU
sleep (POWER_OFF_ON_HALT=0) to stop the fan spinning.
* Disable fan PWM GPIO between RP1 init and fan probe
Drive fan PWM GPIO high during early boot to disable the fan
until it is probed during the device-tree setup stage.
This stops the spinning at max rpm during network-install.
* arm_dt: enable_uart defaults to 0 on 2712
The default value of enable_uart on 2712 is 0, regardless of the
presence of the debug UART cable, so guarantee that the default is
always set correctly.
* Enable banklow (and so NUMA) by default
banklow=1 (2712) and banklow=3 (2711) give the best performance.
* enable_uart=1 now enables a Linix UART console on the 40-pin header
unless a cable is detected on the dedicated boot-uart.
* Recreate internal bl31 stub from clean git tree to fix dirty commit
message.
* rp1fw: Add FIFO_STATE & DRAIN_TX, fix CAN_ADD_PROGRAM
RP1 firmware eb39cfd516f8c90628aa9d91f52370aade5d0a55 adds
methods to drain the TX FIFO and retrieve the state of both FIFOs. It
also fixes the CAN_ADD_PROGRAM implementation, which was fatally
broken.
* network-install - Update the UI to display the board model / variant.
* net-install: Fix keyboard detection on hubs
* recovery: Always enable UART debug output on 2712
* Set POWER_OFF_ON_HALT defaults
The default value for POWER_OFF_ON_HALT on CM5 and Pi 500 will be 1.
Pi5 defaults to 0 for backwards compatibility.
* boot-time: Remove unnecessary 1 second delay when configuring DWC2 controller.
* Enable initial_turbo=60 by default
This reduces the time to get load and decompress the kernel.
* logging: Remove superfluous newline on SDRAM refresh changed messages
* Fix initial_turbo duration
The timeout counter for the previous implementation could run too quickly
causing the initial-turbo timeout to end earlier than expected.
* rp1-fw: Add the mailbox firmware interface, and PIO support that uses it.
* rp1-fw: Turn off unused 25MHz Ethernet refclk
* Fix PCIe BAR setup issue which prevented NVMe boot from working with some PCIe switches
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1833
* Boot-menu improvements
Remain in the forced boot mode until the menu is used to select a different
boot-mode or reset to the original boot-order.
* Introduce a new boot-menu feature where pressing SPACE at power on
gives the user a one-shot option to select a different boot mode.
e.g. Select USB boot if the default SD card is corrupted or unavailable.
* Display the bootloader network-install UI for longer on a cold boot to make
this feature more visible to first time users.
To revert to the previous behaviour remove NET_INSTALL_AT_POWER_ON=1
from the bootloader config.
* Support non-UUID HAT mapping
Extend the HAT map support to allow matching on product and vendor
strings, as well as product ID and version. As a minimum, there must
be a product string - if that matches, the other keys are considered.
Without a product key, the UUID is compared as before.
* Remove requirement for GPT ptable array to be at LBA-2
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/585
* 2712C1 clock manager improvements to slightly reduce idle power ~50mW saving
* Adjust SDRAM page-hold and auto-precharge to improve performance.
~2% improvement with Geekbench 6
* armstubs: 2712: Rebuild with updated max-power throttle and direct stream settings
See: fc45bc492d
* debug: Only display the program_pubkey log if configuring secure-boot
* arm_dt: Consult the hat_map for all HATs
* USB boot - ignore RP2 / RP3 MSD device in BOOTSEL mode.
* recovery.bin - Fix erase_eeprom to not block reboot_recovery
* Fix self-update to continue to boot instead of retrying forever
if the EEPROM is write protected.
