<h1>skiboot-5.1.14<a class="headerlink" href="#skiboot-5-1-14" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>skiboot-5.1.14 was released on Wed March 9th, 2016.</p>
<p>skiboot-5.1.14 is the 15th stable release of 5.1, it follows skiboot-5.1.13
(which was released January 27th, 2016). This release contains a spelling
fix in a log message and an added device tree property to enable older
kernels (with bootloader support) to use a framebuffer that is redirected
to the BMC VGA port.</p>
<p>As such, skiboot-5.1.14 has no advantage over skiboot-5.1.13 unless you
are wanting the neat offb framebuffer trick.</p>
<p>Changes are:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>fsp: fix spelling of “advertise” in log message
See: <a class="reference external" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc</a></p></li>
<li><p>Explicit 1:1 mapping in ranges properties have been added to PCI
bridges. This allows a neat trick with offb and VGA ports that should
probably not be told to young children.</p></li>
</ul>
