** Description changed: [ Summary] We are planning to ship 25.04 with Snapdragon X Elite hardware running out of the box. Installer and meta packages are already updated, the last thing missing is syncing kernel changes and configuration from our linux-qcom-x1e kernel used in our concept image (https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24-10-concept-snapdragon-x-elite/48800) into the generic plucky arm64 kernel. [ Source ] - Most of the patches are sourced from linux-next, the linux-arm-msm ml or https://github.com/jhovold/linux. The remaining ones are original patches - from the Ubuntu Concept tree at https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-concept/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/oracular + Most of the patches are sourced from linux-next, the linux-arm-msm ml or https://github.com/jhovold/linux. The remaining ones are original patches from the Ubuntu Concept tree at https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-concept/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/oracular. The original patches are mostly trivial syncs between the different device specific dts. [ Regression Potential ] - Most patches only modify X Elite specific device trees or drivers with the exception of a few bug fixes, so the impact on other hardware seems low. - I expect that most of them can be dropped with the next update as they have hopefully been merged into mainline or made redundant with firmware updates. + This PR mainly touches X Elite specific device trees or drivers with the exception of a few bug fixes, so the impact on other hardware should be low. + + One notable exception is "hack: efi/libstub: mitigate t14s exit_boot_services() failure" which works around a firmware issue on the some of the machines, see upstream discussion at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/z0gn1n3isp8r3...@hovoldconsulting.com/ + The fix only impacts error handling in a case that is not commonly hit so it seems safe to include too. + + I expect that most patches can be dropped with the next update as they + have hopefully been merged into mainline or made redundant with firmware + updates. [ Other Info ] A kernel based on this PR has been rolled out for https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24-10-concept-snapdragon-x-elite/48800 so we have decent test coverage across a range of hardware.
