https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D268068 Joerg Wunsch <joerg@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |joerg@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #16 from Joerg Wunsch <joerg@FreeBSD.org> --- Just to add here, I'm using SleepWalker's privately patched u-boot port, bo= th on a RockPi 4A as well as on a RockPi 4SE. I started using it because I nee= ded SPI flash support (to be able to boot from NVMe SSD). The very same u-boot = also booted the 4SE without problems. I'm going to work together with him to see what needs to be done to update = the official FreeBSD u-boot port for these devices. Besides SPI flash support (= and obviously, solving any issue with the 4SE), it also adds support to boot fr= om an USB stick. Regarding the documentation, I'm not sure whether there is even a single pe= rson who fully understands all that. :-) I have been doing u-boot stuff at a previous job (including adding things like failover capabilities and so), so maybe I can dig again a bit into it, and remember enough to describe that. However, so far I have yet to find someone (beyond maybe Linus Torvalds) who fully grasped that device tree stuff. Everyone I met so far operates on a copy&paste level there. :-/ --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
