ograjuergh, have you seen my last comments on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-raspi2/+bug/1881623 ? seems it is actually not related to modules at all but to the fact that USB is completely off with the 5.3 kernel on pi4/8GB while it works just fine with 5.413:22
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1881623 in linux-raspi2 (Ubuntu) "USB support missing in initrd makes booting core with writable on USB impossible" [Undecided,Confirmed]13:22
ogra(this is why my own build of teh focal tree works well an switching to the pi-kernel snap breaks the world ut seems)13:23
juerghogra, yeah. waveform just notified me yesterday that it's a problem specific to the pi4 rev1.4.13:25
ograwell, are there plans to go for 5.4 eventually ? it seems to work just well13:25
ogra(for core18 i mean indeed, given that UC20 is still far out)13:27
juerghogra, yes. but we don't have a kernel snap upgrade story yet due to DTB incompatibilities.13:29
ograi thought the gadgets can do that now ... (it is indeed an issue with roll-back in case your update fails)13:30
juerghogra, unfortunately no. there's an ordering issue with gadget and/or kernel snap refreshes you might end up rebooting into a new kernel with old DTBs or the other way around.13:31
juerghwe'll have a 5.4 uc18 kernel snap in edge soon.13:32
ograyeah, i know the issue, but i had hopes the new gadget update machanism could at least handle the forward path nowadays ... too sad :/13:32
juerghwe talked about this yesterday and a plan is being worked on.13:32
ogra(the lockstep mess between kernel and gadget is an old issue ... )13:33
ograah, cool13:33
* juergh is surprised we haven't been bitten before13:33
ograbecause we never updated ;)13:33
juerghwell. kernel snaps are refreshed and even within the same kernel version the DTBs might break.13:34
ograit could be fixed by simply adding dtb load support to u-boot ... and not load the dtb from ram13:34
ograi think that should work nowadays (it didnt when i initially developed the first pi images though, you had to use what the bootloader gave you in ram but i think u-boot evloved)13:35
ogranot sure if that would have any bad effects on GPU stuff though ...13:35
