2019-07-22 14:47:52 Dave Jones description A new raspberry pi (the 3 B+) was released in March 2018. To enable this to boot the firmware needs updating to the latest version. [Impact] * The bionic release currently cannot boot on certain pi models (3B+, CM3+) due to outdated firmware. * This is fixed in the disco and eoan releases with firmware revision 20190215, however it would be nice to enable booting on these platforms for the current LTS release. [Test Case] * Attempt to boot the current bionic release on a CM3+; it never gets past the rainbow screen. * Flash same image onto a CM3; it boots successfully. * Upgrade linux-firmware-raspi2 to the proposed revision. Reboot to ensure CM3 still boots successfully. * dd image onto CM3+ * CM3+ should now boot successfully. [Regression Potential] * Minimal regression potential; I've tested the updated firmware with bionic on a 3B, 3B+, CM3, and CM3+ (to ensure it fixes the issue on the plus platforms, and doesn't regress on the others). All boot successfully with the updated firmware. [Other Info] * Tested with built package (linux-firmware-raspi2 1.20190215-0ubuntu4) in https://launchpad.net/~waveform/+archive/ubuntu/pkg * I can attach a debdiff if required, but I'm not sure how useful it'll be given that the important changes are simply updated binary blobs. * This is not the very latest firmware available from the github.com/raspberrypi/firmware repo (the very latest includes support for the pi4), but this is intentional (issues have been discovered when testing with the very latest firmware). Original description: A new raspberry pi (the 3 B+) was released in March 2018. To enable this to boot the firmware needs updating to the latest version.
