Hi,
I'd like to request a raspi3-firmware update in buster to add some
hardware support. The buster kernel already had all required code to
handle Raspberry Pi CM 3 in addition to the regular Raspberry Pi 3 but
the former needs:
- an updated linux kernel which ships an extra DTB;
- an updated raspi3-firmware that deploys the extra DTB under
/boot/firmware.
The kernel part was requested in:
- https://bugs.debian.org/932157
- https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/merge_requests/155
and is available starting from 4.19.37-6. I wasn't sure how 4.19.y
updates would be handled in sid and in buster, but it seems the most
recent upload to buster (yesterday) didn't include those patches.
I'll double check that my cherry-picks on top of the buster branch
still do the trick, but it seems to me we should be able to move this
pu request forward without blocking on the linux bits.
The changelog reads:
,---
| raspi3-firmware (1.20190215-1+deb10u1) buster; urgency=medium
|
| * Add support for bcm2837-rpi-cm3-io3.dtb (as generated by the Linux
| kernel build system) aka. bcm2710-rpi-cm3.dtb (as expected by the
| bootloader), designed to work for:
| - Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 (CM3);
| - Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 Lite (CM3L);
| - Raspberry Pi Compute Module IO Board V3.
| With many thanks to Charles Fendt for the tests (#932158).
| * The DTB addition in the linux source package is tracked in #932157.

`----
and the full source debdiff is attached.
(I've OK'd this pu request with Romain Perier, who is one of the
maintainers; all of them are in X-D-Cc anyway.)
Thanks for considering, thanks for your time.
Cheers,
