Bug description:
[ Impact ]
RISC-V device-trees have moved to using riscv,isa-extensions instead
of riscv,isa. If riscv,isa is missing, U-Boot 2024.01 fails to boot.
This can be demonstrated with QEMU 9.0 and cpu=max.
The following patches provide a remedy:
0d95add3b1c7 ("riscv: cpu: improve multi-letter extension detection in supports_extension()"
b90edde70127 ("riscv: don't read riscv, isa in the riscv cpu's get_desc()")
f39b1b77d822 ("riscv: support extension probing using riscv, isa-extensions")
[Test Plan ]
With QEMU 9.0 installed run:
qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -cpu max \
-kernel /usr/lib/u-boot/qemu-riscv64_smode/uboot.elf
For regression testing:
Install u-boot-sifive on the Unmatched board and boot.
Install u-boot-microchip on the Icicle board and boot.
Install u-boot-starfive on the VisionFive 2 board and boot.
[ Where problems could occur ]
Booting on QEMU or real hardware might fail if the implementation of
ISA string parsing were incorrect.
