Kernel
Enhancements are added on top of the official
v5.10 Linux kernel tag where most of the Microchip SoC features are already supported. Note as well that we re-integrate each and every
stable kernel release on top of this Long Term Support (LTS) kernel revision. This means that each
v5.10.x version is merged in our branch.
Here is a little summary of the main additional enhancements:
- Integration of stable kernel updates up to v5.10.50
- Update WILC driver & firmware to 15.5
- SOC: added SAM9x60 SiPs
- ISC: rework and separate pipeline between old and new hardware revisions
- Crypto engines:
- fix corner cases for atmel-aes XTS, ECB, CBC, CFB OFB and CTR modes
- fix corner cases for atmel-tdes ECB, CBC, CFB and OFB modes
- SPI-NOR: OTP support, global unlock support for microchip's sst26vf064b and fixes for non-uniform erase
- QSPI: disable IP at suspend time
- NAND: updated ecc_stats.corrected counter
- SPI: fix CS and initialization bug, reduce spinlock usage, switch to transfer_one() method
- SDHCI: add GPIO card detect support to improve power management
- USB device controller (gadget) : remove endpoints from device tree
- I2C: fix bus recovery mechanism for SAMA5D4
- I2S: fix usage of capture and playback at the same time
- PWM: atmel-tcb-pwm: switched to new bindings, fixed sama5d2 support, added atomic support, removed atmel-tclib
- PIT64: add suspend/resume support
- RTC: add correction support for SAMA5D2 and SAMA5D4
- MCP16502: add ramp delay support and fixes
