[Bug 2132298] Re: [SRU] Add StarFive VisionFive 2 Lite, Milk-V Mars CM and Milk-V Mars CM Lite to database

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

None of the StarFive VisionFive 2 Lite, Milk-V Mars CM and Milk-V Mars
CM Lite can run on Ubuntu 25.10 due to the RVA23 ISA requirement. The
entries exist in Ubuntu 25.10 only for easing maintenance of the
database. The entries for these boards in flash-kernel StarFive
VisionFive 2 Lite, Milk-V Mars CM and Milk-V Mars CM Lite in flash-
kernel 3.109ubuntu6.2 and 3.107ubuntu13~24.04.6 match.

On Noble with 3.107ubuntu13~24.04.6 and the linux-
image-6.17.0-14-generic the device-trees are correctly installed by
flash-kernel for all 3 boards.

"sudo flash-kernel" and "sudo reboot" succeed.

  [SRU] Add StarFive VisionFive 2 Lite, Milk-V Mars CM and Milk-V Mars
  CM Lite to database

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Permit users of StarFive VisionFive 2 Lite, Milk-V Mars CM, and Milk-V
  Mars CM Lite boards to be supported on Ubuntu.

  While this bug was originally "fixed" in resolute, resolute is moving
  to RVA23 as a baseline which excludes these boards. In order to
  provide continuing support to these boards in Ubuntu, the change needs
  back-porting to questing and noble.

  [ Test plan ]

  On the affected $board, for each SRU'd $series:

  * Flash $board with ubuntu server image for $series
  * Attempt to run "sudo flash-kernel" -- note failure due to unrecognized board
  * Enable proposed pocket (edit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources and add $series-proposed to Suites line)
  * sudo apt install -t $series-proposed flash-kernel
  * Attempt to run "sudo flash-kernel" -- note success
  * Attempt "sudo reboot" -- note if reboot succeeds

  [ Where things could go wrong ]

  The patch only adds new entries to the flash-kernel database, so
  existing boards should be unaffected and do not require testing;
  autopkgtests and build tests are in place to ensure the database is
  correctly structured after the patch.

  The test plan covers checking that the bug is present on the affected
  boards, and that those boards operate correctly (including reboot with
  flash assets afterwards).

  [ Original description ]

  Add StarFive VisionFive 2 Lite, Milk-V Mars CM and Milk-V Mars CM Lite
  are StarFive JH7110 based boards which we can support in Noble if
  adding the appropriate device-trees.
