8.3. Release v2024.12.0

8.3.1. spi-gpio DT bindings

Support for the old deprecated device tree binding has been removed. If spi-gpio binding is to be used in barebox, the new binding (e.g. sck-gpios instead of gpio-sck) must be used.

8.3.2. Configuration options

  • CONFIG_CRYPTO_RSA_KEY has been renamed to CONFIG_CRYPTO_PUBLIC_KEYS to reflect that it now accepts multiple entries and is no longer limited to RSA with the addition of ECDSA support.

  • CONFIG_CRYPTO_RSA_KEY_NAME_HINT has been removed. To specify a hint, add it in front of the key into CRYPTO_PUBLIC_KEYS, e.g. hint1:file1 hint2:file2.

8.3.3. LZ4 compression

barebox now expects lz4 to be available instead of lz4c if the barebox proper binary is configured to be LZ4-compressed. Customizing the name is possible via the LZ4 environment variable.
