[Bug 1997233] Re: Support LicheeRV and PolarFire RISC-V platforms in jammy

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Łukasz, or anyone else affected,

Accepted livecd-rootfs into jammy-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-
rootfs/2.765.13 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  Support LicheeRV and PolarFire RISC-V platforms in jammy

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in livecd-rootfs source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  As part of our HWE story, we want to support two new platforms
  (available in kinetic/lunar): the LicheeRV and the PolarFire Icicle
  Kit. To do this, we need to backport some of the livecd-rootfs changes
  for building those images.

  https://code.launchpad.net/~xypron/livecd-rootfs/+git/livecd-
  rootfs/+merge/433185 list all the changes needed:

  * Add support for the LicheeRV board (SUBARCH=licheerv)
  * Add support for the PolarFire Icicle Kit board (SUBARCH=icicle)
  * Reduce initrd size for Nezha and LicheeRV boards
  * Use efi=debug earlycon on kernel command line

  [Test Case]

  Build official PROPOSED=1 images for jammy for licheerv and icicle
  SUBARCHes.

  Additionally to this, make sure existing RISC-V preinstalled images
  still build correctly. Reach out to the CPC to check if cloud images
  for RISC-V still build correctly with the new livecd-rootfs.

  [Regression Potential]

  The only regression potential is breaking other RISC-V related images,
  but this should be mitigated by the additional testing steps provided
  in the Test Case.
