Notable changes:

  • U-Boot: Add SPL support - and read DDR values & production info from EEPROM
    Critical update that allows future-proofing your SW build and automatically support new DDR3 component generations
  • WiFi/BT startup sequence update
    Fix a rare case of WiFi firmware load failure on VAR-SOM-MX7-5G
  • FreeRTOS/M4 RPMsg fix
    The hard-coded vring buffer has been removed from the driver: input the vring buffer by device tree node
  • rc.local: Adapted runtime PM fix to kernel 4.9.x
  • Limit the max CPU freq. to 1 GHz in accordance with its specification
  • U-Boot: Add support for custom kernel args by setting a kernelargs env. var.
  • U-Boot: Add option to import the env. from a text file, uEnv.txt
  • U-Boot: Remove unused pads from NAND configuration
  • Use tar.gz instead of tar.bz2 for the eMMC/SD card rootfs
    Its extraction on the target is much faster while its compression ratio is only a little lower.
  • Add the net-tools package by default
    This package includes tools like arp, ifconfig, netstat, route, etc.
  • debian-nand.sh: Preserve the NAND flash erase counters
  • Fix OV5640 driver for S_FMT and MX6S SOC drivers
  • Disable SAI2 in device tree
    By default, SAI2 is not connected to BT PCM, so leave it free as GPIOs
