Description

Helping @alexl83 with his OrangePi 5 Plus 😄

Support for this board with SPI image was added to U-Boot this january: u-boot/u-boot@7c084fd

Also add the latest DDR and BL31 blobs, this should fix issues like recently on the NanoPC T6.

Marked as WIP to give room for testing.

How Has This Been Tested?

  • Build success: ./compile.sh BOARD=orangepi5-plus BRANCH=edge RELEASE=trixie EXPERT=yes KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=no uboot
  • @alexl83 please test freshly built edge kernel image
  • @alexl83 please test freshly built vendor kernel image (vendor u-boot should be applied)
  • @alexl83 please test edge image on SD card while vendor U-Boot is installed in SPI (or wherever it lives when it comes from the factory)

Test Report and protocol:

  1. built vendor image from trunk + this PR --> pulls 2017.9
  2. flashed and booted vendor image from sdcard --> ok
  3. configured vendor image (armbian-firstrun) --> ok
  4. rebooted vendor image --> ok
  5. installed vendor u-boot to mtd0 --> ok
  6. built edge image from trunk + this PR --> pulls 2024.07
  7. flashed and cold-booted edge image from sdcard --> ok
  8. configured edge image (armbian-firstrun) --> ok
  9. rebooted edge image --> ok
  10. erased spi flash mtd0 --> ok
  11. rebooted edge image --> ok
  12. cold-booted edge image --> ok

Basically it's a very verbose "IT WORKS!!!!"

Will test it next days. Maybe we can also use mainline uboot for legacy images in the future
