Flashrom is the default update mechanism on Pi5 and is not
cancellable. Remove this misleading message.
rpi-eeprom-update already has a message which knows about flashrom.
Retry flashrom updates on failure and explicitly verify the images.
So far, there haven't been any reports of flashrom failures but
retrying is the best course of action in case this failure ever
occurs.
* 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.
* The 2024-11-12 automatically sets the POWER_OFF_ON_HALT property
according to the board-type so remove the override network install
images.
* Set NET_INSTALL_AT_POWER_ON=1 by default which briefly display
the network-install / boot-menu UI after a cold power-on.
This can be switched off by removing the line
either via "rpi-eeprom-config --edit" or the new menu in raspi-config
Advanced Options.
* 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
Move everything older than the last automatic update (2024-09-23) to the
old firmware directory which is not included in the APT package. This
reduces the size of the APT updates.
* 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.
SD card high-speed/low-voltage mode can only be exited by powercycling.
Pi 4s before rev 1.4 lack the power switch required to do this, so
must resort to a global reset that turns off many things, including
SDRAM.
To ensure correct operation, the bootloader checks that the SD I/O
voltage is the expected 3.3V, forcing a power cycle if it isn't.
However, this doesn't take advantage of presence of the dedicated
SD power switch, always forcing a global reset, a consequence of which
can be the loss of SDRAM content - including any ramoops dump of the
crash logs.
Make the bootloader more SD_PWR_ON aware, only triggering a global
reset if one isn't found.
See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/5298
* 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
20 seconds is a little too short for safety with flashrom if every
page has to be erased and re-written. Bump this to 60 seconds
which is probably too long but nothing good will come from
interrupting flashrom.
* 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.

- 2024-07-30 is marked `default` here, but the image is actually in `latest`
- 2024-07-25 doesn't specify default or latest - fix that
(Aside: neither seem to have found their way to apt yet).
* Optimize all-banks/per-bank refresh timings for Pi5 8GB
* Improve compatibility for booting from some USB SD card readers
https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/527
* Add enable_rp1_uart=1 to config.txt to initialise RP1 UART0 immediately
prior to starting the ARMs get earlycon on 40-pin header (pins 14,15)
Also requires pciex4_reset=0 in config.txt
earlycon=pl011,0x1f00030000,115200n8
* Enable the usage of program_rpiboot_gpio in config.txt for recovery.bin
without requiring secure-boot to be enabled.
This may be useful CI systems provisioning images on Pi4B / Pi400 via RPIBOOT.
This is an OTP setting and cannot be reverted after programming.
