It replaces +:ref:`skiboot-6.2.2` as the current stable release in the 6.2.x series. + +It is recommended that 6.2.3 be used instead of any previous 6.2.x version +due to the bug fixes it contains. + +Bug fixes included in this release are: + +- p9dsu: Undo slot label name changes + + During some code updates the slot labels were updated to reflect + the phb layout, however expectations were that the slot labels be + aligned with the riser card slots and not the system planar slots. + + [stewart: The tale of how we got here is long and varied and not at + all clear. The first ESS systems went out with a skiboot v5.9.8 with + additional SuperMicro patches. It was probably a slot table, but who knows, + we don't have the code so can't check. It's possible it was all coming + in through HDAT instead). The op-build tree (thus the exact patches) + shipped on systems that work correct seems to not be around anywhere anymore + (if it ever was). It was only in skiboot v6.0 that a slot table made + it in, and, of course, only having remote machines in random configs, + including possibly with riser cards from Briggs&Stratton rather than + the ones destined for this system, doesn't make for verifying this + at all. It also doesn't help that *consistently* there is *never* + any review on slot tables, and we've had things be wrong in the past. + Combine this with not upstream Hostboot patches.] + +- p9dsu: Fix slot labels for p9dsu2u + + Update the slot labels for the p9dsu2u tables. + +- fast-reboot: occ: Call occ_pstates_init() on fast-reset on all machines + + Commit 815417dcda2e ("init, occ: Initialise OCC earlier on BMC systems") + conditionally invoked occ_pstates_init() only on FSP based systems in + load_and_boot_kernel(). Due to this pstate table is re-parsed on FSP + system and skipped on BMC system during fast-reboot. So this patch fixes + this by invoking occ_pstates_init() on all boxes during fast-reboot. |
