CI: Update to using grub-2.14 for our tests

2026-02-06T15:29:58+00:00

When building grub-2.12 with a newer GCC, we run in to warings (treated
as errors). The simple fix here is to move to the latest release tag. In
order to build a newer grub from source we need the autoconf-archive
package to be installed.

tools: sunxi-spl-image-builder: support H6/H616 NAND boot

2026-02-03T20:45:27+00:00

The H6/H616 boot ROM doesn't expect a SPL scrambled the same way as
older SoCs.
It doesn't use a specific seeds table, it expects a maximized ECC
(BCH-80), a specific BBM (FF000301) and doesn't work if empty pages are
skipped (it needs its specific BBM, even in the padding).

So, add a --soc=h6 option to support H6/616 with:
- more ECC strengths
- specific BBM
- default_scrambler_seeds[] with all values
- no empty pages skip

In Kconfig, select BCH-80 by default for SUNXI_SPL_ECC_STRENGTH to make
BROM happy.

And in scripts/Makefile.xpl, use --soc=h6 option when building for a
SUN50I_GEN_H6 SoC.

Tested on Whatsminer H616 board, booting from NAND.

mkimage: fit: align DTs in external data to 8 Bytes by default

2026-02-02T15:15:52+00:00

Unless specified otherwise using the mkimage -B n option, align
DTs in fitImage external data to 8 Bytes, and retain alignment
of everything else to 4 Bytes. This should fulfill the DTspec
requirement, that DTs must be placed at 8 Byte aligned addresses,
even for DTs that are part of fitImage with external data. For
fitImage with embedded data, there is nothing we can do, as the
embedded data are aligned to 4 Bytes, just like any other DT
property.

Replace fdtdec_get_child_count() counting of images with counting
of padding using fdt_for_each_subnode(). This is much more useful,
as the added up padding can be passed directly to calloc() when
allocating the buffer which holds the external data. The image
count is no longer needed.

Adjust the image layouting such, that buf_ptr is incremented to
place the next image at align_size aligned offset. This is done
at the beginning of the loop, once the align_size for current
image can be determined from the current image type.

Update binman test to validate the new 8 Byte alignment.

tools: Handle realloc failure in strlist_add

2026-01-28T20:41:21+00:00

If realloc fails, list->strings was set to NULL and
it would create a leak. This commit ensures that if we cannot
add a string to the list, the list stays in a good state.

testing, so regenerate it with a 100-year validity period.

Merge patch series "sc5xx: Add complete board support for all ADI SC5xx boards"

2026-01-23T20:55:32+00:00

Greg Malysa  says:

This series adds the final pieces to enable mainline U-Boot to build and
boot all Analog Devices SC5xx SoCs and supports the associated carrier
board options. At this point it should be viable for new users for these
platforms to start with the latest version of U-Boot rather than our
vendor fork, however some features (such as OSPI support and falcon
boot) remain unavailable until we are able to unify our implementations
with the mainline implementations.

docker: add Analog Devices tools to docker image

2026-01-23T20:20:59+00:00

The boot ROM on Analog Devices ADSP-SC5xx SoCs requires code packaged
in the LDR format. Normally this is available as part of
our yocto-derived toolchain but, it is not a part of any other pre-made
toolchain anymore, so it is otherwise unavailable in the docker image
for CI. This patch adds a source build from the ADI maintained github
repository. In the future, a package available for install via apt will
be available, but currently there is no arm64 build upstream, so we must
build from source for the time being to support CI on both amd64 and
arm64 runners. The same ldr tool is used for arm and arm64 for all of
our boards with names adjusted to match the expected $(CROSS_COMPILE)
for these boards.
