Title:
mlxbf_bootctl: replace SAUCE patches with upstream
Status in linux-bluefield package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in linux-bluefield source package in Jammy:
New
Bug description:
SRU Justification:
[Impact]
The mlxbf_bootctl BlueField platform driver in the Jammy repo
consists of some SAUCE patches. These need to be replaced.
[Fix]
The fix is to revert the four SAUCE patches, replacing them with
upstream commits for the same functionality. One patch for the
mlxbf_bootctl driver is not yet upstreamed, so that patch will
remain as SAUCE patch for now.
[Test Case]
* Boot BF2/BF3 platform, verify no new errors
* Program MFG fields via "bfcfg" tool:
1) With current image, use 'bfcfg -d' to display current values
2) Reboot, stopping at UEFI menu, trigger 'Reset MFG Info'
3) With new image, use 'bfcfg' to push new or same MFG fields
4) Verify that the MFG fields are programmed properly via 'bfcfg -d'
5) Repeat process to replace proper MFG fields
* Display BlueField boot log
1) cd /sys/bus/platform/devices/MLNXBF04:00
2) cat rsh_log
3) Should see boot log entries relevant to last boot
[Regression Potential]
The upstream commits are not exactly the same as the SAUCE patches,
so technically there is a chance of regression, but its been
well-tested and the functionality is the same.
