bump u-boot version

Open BradWalker opened this issue 11 months ago • 1 comments

There is an issue with the version of U-Boot in the repo for this project.

In particular, the RISC-V ISA has separated the ZICSR and ZIFENCEI from the base and into their own extension, chapter 3 & chapter 9. https://riscv.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/riscv-spec.pdf This also means current released compilers like riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc will not support these instructions.

This is the issue that I'm hitting.

As a result, the U-Boot team cleaned up their Makefile to support adding these instructions as extensions to gcc. The change was implemented in this commit. https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/commit/1dde977518f13824b847e23275001191139bc384

The easiest thing would be to bump the version referenced in the project to the tag v2023.01 . I've tested this out and it works correctly.

I hope this is possible.
