- Bump Linux kernel to 6.18.
- Bump U-Boot to 2025.10. Add the dependency on GNU TLS. Refresh the
config fragment: add smc & poweroff commands, add ESRT and dummy
capsule update, add SMCCC features discovery.
- Bump OP-TEE to 4.8.0. Add the dependency on python-cryptography. Lock
optee-client version to be the same as optee-os. Add a patch to output
logs to the same UART as all the other components and increase log
level. Remove the unnecessary dependency on dtc.
- Bump TF-A to v2.14.0.
- Bump FVP to 11.30_27. Disable terminal 1, now that all the logs go to
a single terminal. Enable virtio network. Rate limit the simulation
by default, for convenience at U-Boot and GRUB countdown, and for more
realistic delays inside the simulation.
- Switch to Bootlin pre-built toolchain.
- Add more modules to GRUB, to have more commands available: efi
commands, plus reboot & halt.
- Add eudev to probe Linux modules during boot, for LCD support.
- Configure eth0 with DHCP automatically during boot.
- Refresh the documentation.
This configuration has been tested on an x86 and on an AArch64 machine.
The firmware and FVP of this configuration have also been tested
successfully with other OSes: Debian Live, openSUSE Tumbleweed, Yocto,
OpenWrt, Buildroot AArch64 EFI and FreeBSD.

Add optee_os to the default configuration for versal2 devices including an
example with the versal2_vek385_defconfig.
Since not all versal2 optee_os features are upstream, use the downstream

which is based on optee_os v4.5.0.

Add an example config for the Versal2 VEK385 evaluation board. This board has
the superset 2VE3858 device of the Versal AI Edge Gen 2 family with
8 Cortex-A78AE cores, 10 Cortex-R52 cores, 144 AIE-ML tiles and over 500k LUTs.
With this patch, Buildroot is capable to build a full image for the VEK385
evaluation board along with all the necessary firmware components.

Since Buildroot commit [1] "package/gcc: switch to GCC 14.x as the
default", pine64_star64_defconfig compilation is failing in
u-boot with error:
drivers/video/dw_hdmi.c: In function 'dw_hdmi_write':
drivers/video/dw_hdmi.c:81:42: error: passing argument 2 of 'writeb' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
See build failure [2].
Upstream U-Boot includes a support for this board since commit [3],
first included in v2024.07.
Upstream Kernel includes a support for this board since commit [4],
first included in v6.11.
This commit switches uboot and linux from the repository
https://github.com/Fishwaldo
to their respective upstream sources.
U-Boot is updated from the fork from a v2021.10 base to v2025.10.
The Linux Kernel is updated from the fork from a v5.15.131 base
to v6.12.56.
While at it, this commit updates the defconfig to the new convention:
- It adds custom hashes and enables BR2_DOWNLOAD_FORCE_CHECK_HASHES=y
- It switches to a glibc stable bootlin external toolchain
Note that the upstream uboot defconfig name for the pine64 star64
board is starfive_visionfive2 (which is in fact another, but very
similar board). The detection of the board is made inside the SPL.
See [5].
Finally, switching to upstream uboot and kernel required few
adjustments:
- The genimage.cfg is updated to use the "u-boot.itb" file produced by
U-Boot,
- In genimage.cfg, the uboot partition-type-uuid is changed to
xbootldr (the genimage human readable name), to follow the
recommendation of the UUID to use from [5],
- In extlinux.conf, rootwait is added in kernel arguments,
- The post-build.sh script and the star64-uboot-fit-image.its file
are removed: they are no longer needed, since U-Boot and Binman
are managing everything,
- BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_SPL_NAME is updated in the defconfig, to reflect
the file name generated by U-Boot,
- BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_STARFIVE_SPLTOOL is removed from the defconfig,
it is no longer needed, since upstream U-Boot produces the file
at the correct format,
- BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_UBOOT_TOOLS is also removed from the defconfig,
it is no longer needed since U-Boot uses Binman,
- the defconfig is updated to include the new uboot requirements
(BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_{NEEDS,USE}_*),
- the pine64_star64_defconfig entry is removed from .checkpackageignore
it is no longer needed.
This patch was tested on a Pine64 Star64 board V1.1,
PCB revision: 0xc1, BOM revision: A.

The roseapplepi defconfig fails to build u-boot since the move to GCC 15.x:
https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/jobs/11501385206
The issues are mainly related to missing includes, but given that the build
has been broken for a while, there is no mainline u-boot support for the
platform and the minimal kernel support has not seen any updates since it
was added for v5.15, just drop the defconfig.

This defconfig no longer builds:

It is still based on the 4.8.6 kernel, which is not even an LTS
kernel, so we cannot easily update to fix the issues which are most
likely due to the newer gcc/binutils versions we're using now.
There is no DEVELOPERS entry attached to this configuration as well,
and this defconfig has been broken for at least 2 months, probably
more (our Gitlab CI history is only kept for ~2 months). So let's drop

This configuration is based on the work of Paul Liu[2] and is not related
