Could you please quickly elaborate on your test environment and the test config.txt for the RaspberryPi5? Here I have compiled U-Boot 2024.01 with your patches applied and using the „rpi_arm64_defconfig“, put the u-boot.bin file on the sd card and then added „kernel=u-boot.bin“ to the config.txt file. The environment I am using is a buildroot-based system which boots nicely with the default RaspberryPi boot loader and a RaspberryPi5. However, as soon as I replace the „kernel=Image“ line with „kernel=u-boot.bin“ the system stalls and there is no HDMI output (nor any console output) with the u-boot 2024.01 version and your patches applied.

That’s in fact exactly what I was also trying in addition to get u-boot running with your patches in my own buildroot-based environment. So I was also exactly using this Tumbleweed rpi4 image and simply replaced the u-boot.bin file with my own build version which I built with your patches applied and using the rpi_arm64_defconfig as the build config. However, there is still no output on any of the HDMI ports. Haven’t tried to see if there is any serial output on the special UART debug port of the rpi5. Should there be any output at all?

Best Regards,

Jens
