For "reasons" extlinux provides a more stable boot.
Remove aw859a-wifi.service:
The service modprobes sprdwl_ng later in the boot process. Which
is not required. Just enabling it in modules-load.d will suffice.
I believe the reasoning for this service was to prevent a crash
which occurs if sprdwl_ng loads before cpufreq_dt. To prevent
the crash we will set in the defconfig CONFIG_CPUFREQ_DT=y.

* Jetson Nano: retire automatic images generation - they don't work
* Cubox-i: move it to the EOS as it doesn't boot anymore and since old.
* Odroid M2: promote the board to standard support
* Orangepi3 LTS: Promote back to the supported list
- tested on actual hardware
- small fixes for:
- LEDs (new names; was wrong also in v2025.10 and previous)
- remove duplicate enablement of CONFIG_CMD_USB_MASS_STORAGE
- comment about lower USB3 port not working due share with OTG/UMS
micro-usb port that is enabled
- Change BOOTCONFIG from rk3506b to rk3506j variant
- Update btrfs patch to target correct defconfig
- Add OPTEE image support for secure boot functionality
- mainline AT-F only for non-vendor BRANCH
- vendor branch uses vendor u-boot with rkbin blobs
- sorry for the confusion; I overlooked the conditional here
- Fixes: f45765e510
- LWIP has issues with TFTP (serverip/tftpserverip) on v2026.01
- Kwiboo is already sending fixes, few separate series; check v2026.04 one day
- for now just disable the 2 boards I had enabled it for and use the legacy network stack again
- Fixes: 332e43bc8c
- Fixes: d88d32b248
- use LWIP for networking
- enable some USB network drivers
- drop (now-default) kaslrseed as it was redundant
- add gpio expander support (for "red" LED)
- flash leds once on preboot (incl red one)
- Use SERIALCON instead of systemd override for serial console
- Remove fdtfile from bootenv (use BOOT_FDT_FILE instead)
- Remove ATF_COMPILER (arm64 default)
- Inline OPTEE variables into fetch_sources_tools hook
- Remove empty family_tweaks() and family_tweaks_bsp()
- Use only debug mode for ATF build
- Build fiptool in atf_custom_postprocess
- Move header creation inline into uboot_custom_postprocess
- Use <<- heredoc for Python script
- u-boot stores env in UFS LUN 1
- use a 2mb offset (different from vendor/Collabora's) to avoid any env conflict
- point fw_printenv/setenv at it at the correct offset and size
- set SRC_CMDLINE, used in extlinux/EXT=u-boot-menu scenarios
- note about d4/d8/d16 irrelevance now as we have RAM autodetection
- note about where the blobs (libdram/libbase/lk.bin) live in GH: https://github.com/armbian/mtkbin
- Switched to the binman-atf-mainline scenario with the same rkbin DDR blob
rk3399_ddr_933MHz_v1.25.bin (TPL blob, as in the old working loader). DRAM init is correct, full
4 GB visible, Linux boots.
- U-Boot and DTS updated to v2026.01-rc5. Added MDIO/PHY node and phy-handle in rk3399-kobol-
helios64.dts, fixing “mdio node is missing”. Disabled i2s2 in the U-Boot DT to avoid rockchip-
i2s ... Could not register PCM.
- boot_targets in U-Boot config shortened (mmc1, scsi0, usb0, pxe, dhcp) to avoid env_buf ... too
small; however, the last built binary still shows the warning (needs rebuild with the shortened
list or enlarging the buffer).
- Boot flow: bootstd scans SD (mmc0) and eMMC (mmc1); SD boot works even without mmc0 in
boot_targets.
- Other changes: defconfig has CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_EXTERNAL_TPL=y to use the external DDR blob.
Boots.
- fix bootorder (SD -> NVMe -> eMMC); USB disabled as nonworking with mainline still
- use the DT from rockchip64-6.18 so a single source for both u-boot and kernel
- note: the first (and only) RTL8169 used by u-boot is the port closest to board edge
