If you're thinking of updating the firmware (fixup*.dat, start*.elf)
on a raspberry pi 4, for example to experiment with the (beta) network
booting support, watch out! A series of commits by the Pi Foundation
on https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware in September and October
managed to mess up 9p
I have a 2K display that Plan9 forces to 1920x1080 resolution.
Poking around 9/bcm/screen.c indicates that setting vgasize=WxHxD
should force the size, but adding a suitable entry in cmdline.txt
just gives me a blank display.

i copied the fat32 content from raspbian and adjusted the config.txt
according to the docs to make it work. 9front release had some
firmware (or dtd files, or something) that was either too old or
missing
