+==============
+
+skiboot 6.0.10 was released on Wednesday October 31st, 2018. It replaces
+:ref:`skiboot-6.0.9` as the current stable release in the 6.0.x series.
+
+It is recommended that 6.0.10 be used instead of any previous 6.0.x version
+due to the bug fixes it contains.
+
+The bug fixes are:
+
+- Recognise signed VERSION partition
+- hdata/i2c: Skip unknown device type
+
+  Do not add unknown I2C devices to device tree.
+- hdata/i2c: Make SPD workaround more workaroundy
+
+  We have a hack in the I2C device parser to fix up entries generated by
+  hostboot for the DIMM SPD devices. For some reason they get reported as
+  128Kbit EEPROMs which is bad since those have a different I2C interface
+  to an actual SPD device.
+
+  Oddly enough, the FSP also gets this wrong in a slightly different way.
+  In the FSP case they are reported as a at24c04 (4Kbit) EEPROM, which
+  also has a different I2C interface.
+
+  To fix both these problems for any eeprom we find on that bus to have
+  the compatible string of "spd".
+
+- hdata/i2c: Add whitelisting for Host I2C devices
+
+  Many of the devices that we get information about through HDAT are for
+  use by firmware rather than the host operating system. This patch adds
+  a boolean flag to hdat_i2c_info structure that indicates whether devices
+  with a given purpose should be reserved for use inside of OPAL (or some
+  other firmware component, such as the OCC).
+- Add fast-reboot property to /ibm,opal DT node
+
+  this means that if it's permanently disabled on boot, the test suite can
+  pick that up and not try a fast reboot test.
+- libflash: Add ipmi-hiomap (currently for Witherspoon only)
+
+  ipmi-hiomap implements the PNOR access control protocol formerly known
+  as "the mbox protocol" but uses IPMI instead of the AST LPC mailbox as a
+  transport. As there is no-longer any mailbox involved in this alternate
+  implementation the old protocol name is quite misleading, and so it has
+  been renamed to "the hiomap protoocol" (Host I/O Mapping protocol). The
+  same commands and events are used though this client-side implementation
+  assumes v2 of the protocol is supported by the BMC.
+- AMI BMC: use 0x3a as OEM command
+
+  The 0x3a OEM command is for IBM commands, while 0x32 was for AMI ones.
+  Sometime in the P8 timeframe, AMI BMCs were changed to listen for our
+  commands on either 0x32 or 0x3a. Since 0x3a is the direction forward,
+  we'll use that, as P9 machines with AMI BMCs probably also want these
+  to work, and let's not bet that 0x32 will continue to be okay.
+- astbmc: Set romulus BMC type to OpenBMC
+- Fixes to bulid with GCC8
+- phb4/capp: Use link width to allocate STQ engines to CAPP
+
+  Update phb4_init_capp_regs() to allocates STQ Engines to CAPP/PEC2
+  based on link width instead of always assuming it to x8.
+
+  Also re-factor the function slightly to evaluate the link-width only
+  once and cache it so that it can also be used to allocate DMA read
+  engines.
+- phb4/capp: Update the expected Eye-catcher for CAPP ucode lid
+
+  Currently on a FSP based P9 system load_capp_code() expects CAPP ucode
+  lid header to have eye-catcher magic of 'CAPPPSLL'. However skiboot
+  currently supports CAPP ucode only lids that have a eye-catcher magic
+  of 'CAPPLIDH'. This prevents skiboot from loading the ucode with this
+  error message: ::
+
+    CAPP: ucode header invalid
+
+  We fix this issue by updating load_capp_ucode() to use the eye-catcher
+  value of 'CAPPLIDH' instead of 'CAPPPSLL'.
