I'm not sure, I don't think it's necessary if your minimal patch works.
I'll do a PR for 8.2 for SLOF and Skiboot updates, so happy to include
this as well.
I think this is a bit late for 8.2 to change FW images, well, at least
SLOF and skiboot. Are the new versions fixing something critical ?
Ah okay. Well then I can put them in next instead.
SLOF has a fix for virtio console over reboots, pretty minimal.
I see that commit dd4d4ea0add9 has :
Fixes: cf28264 ("virtio-serial: Rework shutdown sequence")
Looks good for 8.2
skiboot has some bug fixes but it's a bigger change and maybe not
so important for QEMU.> Could they be merged in next release
yes. it seems skiboot should be merged with chiptod support in 9.0.
and SLOF tagged with stable?
I think this amigaone patch could still be merged since it's only
touching a new machine and it's fixing an issue of missing firmware.
ARM does something similar with roms. See hw/arm/boot.c file.
It will need a "Fixes" tag.
Thanks,
C.
