That's pretty much it.
If you're not booting your operating system via UEFI, there is no need to upgrade.
Time was scarce to do what I expected to do for this release, and even then I ended up releasing way late.
This release improves device information made available through SMBIOS tables. This data is available when the Operating System is booted through UEFI, and before would often present the fallback data.
So instead of having the system advertise their identity as Unknown Product
made by Unknown
, the system will show useful information.
This information will either be the platform-specific information added to the driver, like in #135 by @MartijnBraam. Some systems in upstream U-Boot already provide that information, and it will be preferred.
Since it would be preferable to always have useful information, fallback information is now taken from the Tow-Boot knowledge of the current build #158 when the system does not include data. The upstream data is preferred as it improves compatibility with non Tow-Boot implementations.
In platform-specific changes, The ODROID-N2+ support was improved with support for its XT25Q64D
SPI Flash chip #149, by @ulrikstrid.
