Implement missed usage of the `RequiredPartition` flag. - https://github.com/ARM-software/ebbr/issues/84#issuecomment-1022105502

Not yet. But maybe it shouldn't. Instead it would be better advised to run systemd-boot IMO. In fact, in theory it should already be able to do it, but when...

I guess I was right that, maybe from a lack of proper documentation on my part, you wouldn't see it as I do. (I will answer in an order that...

And to paraphrase more succinctly: "Yes, BLS would be good in U-Boot. I *personally* won't work on it in the foreseeable future"

I've just taken a look at the Boot Loader Specification. And there's one huge deficiency (shared with many other bootloadery bits). It assumes the device tree binary to be loaded...

Yes, it is possible. Though it requires adding a driver for the PMIC to query the battery state. I believe it was being worked on for upstreaming in U-Boot by...

#168 may help with part of the problem. It won't prevent the OS from loading with low battery, but will configure charge to be a bit quicker early on.

`upstream_kernel` AFAIUI only affects which files gets loaded by the vendor firmware. Having to rely on the vendor firmware's behaviour for this would be a failure with Tow-Boot's goals of...

AFAIK this happens outside of the purview of the platform firmware. It [might be possible to configure as desired](http://files.pine64.org/doc/datasheet/pine64/AXP803_Datasheet_V1.0.pdf), registers 36H and 37H as described under 9.1.1. Though I'm not...

Note that when discussing with @leo60228, I realized there is a [generic `rpi_arm64` U-Boot defconfig](https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/blob/master/configs/rpi_arm64_defconfig), which may be better to use, rather than smushing together two U-boot binaries in the...
