v2022.11.0

Thu Nov 10 00:40:40 PST 2022

Hi All,

I am happy to announce barebox-2022.11.0.

Nothing spectacular, but there are some nice little things I'd like to
mention here. We have kept stdout and stderr separately since the
beginning, but Ahmad finally made that feature much more useful. All
log messages printed with pr_* and dev_* now go to stderr rathern than
stdout. This allows us to direct all log messages to another console
without disturbing the interactive console.

Another thing is that barebox now brings up the ethernet links
immediately when the autoboot is interrupted. With this the link will
be brought up while the user thinking about the commands to type, and
networking will be available when the user needs it.

There is an important bugfix for SoCFPGA arria10 users in this release:
We accidently mapped in the onchip SRAM at 0x0 which caused DMA
transfers to/from that area to fail. The Kernel SDMMC driver trapped
over this which resulted in corrupted data transfers.

Finally our DSA switch support continued to evolve, we now have a
ksz8873 driver. That increased the number of switches supported by 50%.
Oleksij, keep the pace ;)

As usual see below for a full list of changes.

Have fun!
  Sascha
