Why not bump to linux-4.14.22-armada-18.09? Is there any missing functionality in that release?

Why not bump to linux-4.14.22-armada-18.09? Is there any missing functionality in that release?

My understanding is that 4.4 is the BSP version that Marvell considers complete and stable, which has received full QA testing. 4.14 is still in development, and will be fully ready by the end of the year. Therefore, in this defconfig using vendor-provided versions of the components, it probably makes sense to stick to 4.4 for now ?

Best regards,

Thomas

Sounds reasonable to me. The commit log should probably include this information.

cover Update MacchiatoBin defconfigs

In reply to a message not in the archive

Hello,

Quoted 7 lines · Thomas Petazzoni

Thomas Petazzoni (5):
boot/mv-ddr-marvell: bump version to armada-18.09.2 boot/binaries-marvell: bump version to marvell-armada-18.06 boot/arm-trusted-firmware: don't pass TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS when
building
configs/solidrun_macchiatobin_mainline: bump component versions configs/solidrun_macchiatobin_marvell: bump component versions

I've applied the entire series, after updating the commit log of the last patch to indicate why we stick to Linux 4.4 and not switch to Marvell provided Linux 4.14, as was requested by Baruch.

Best regards,

Thomas
