Hello Talha, or anyone else affected,

Accepted flash-kernel into oracular-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flash-

repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See

update out to other Ubuntu users.

mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
oracular to verification-done-oracular. If it does not fix the bug for
you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed-oracular. 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

Title:
  [SRU] flash-kernel to support xilinx kria platforms with noble kernel

Status in flash-kernel package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in flash-kernel source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed
Status in flash-kernel source package in Oracular:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

   * With the current version of flash-kernel, users wont be able to
  boot into xilinx devices using optimised noble kernel because of the
  renaming of device-trees in kernel and cma configuration changes.

   * We need to fix this issue to keep support for xilinx devices in
  noble as well. This must not be back-ported into jammy since the
  kernel in jammy keeps the old names for device-trees and cma
  configuration in there didn't change

   * Patch will fix the issue by updating bootscript and `its` file to
  point correct device-tree files.

  [ Test Plan ]

   * Flash the new image generated with new flash-kernel that has this fix
   * Try booting with new image
   * You should be able to reach the login prompt and be able to login using default username and password
   * This must work for all Kria devices listed below:
    - KV260
    - KR260
    - KD240

  [ Where problems could occur ]
   * This change could only impact Xilinx Kria devices since it will only touch the files used by Xilinx Kria platforms including the ones listed above in test plan
   * Since this is an enablement patch for Ubuntu Noble image on Xilinx Kria platforms, there shouldnt be an impact to devices in the field.
   * If the patch is broken then the devices listed above will still continue to not work.

  [ Other Info ]
   
   * This is based on changes in new optimised kernel: https://code.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-xilinx/+git/noble
