Hi all,
I tagged skiboot-5.1.6, release notes below:
skiboot-5.1.6
-------------
skiboot-5.1.6 was released on October 8th, 2015.
skiboot-5.1.6 is the 7th stable release of 5.1, it follows skiboot-5.1.5
(which was released October 1st, 2015).
Skiboot 5.1.6 contains all fixes from skiboot-5.1.5 and is a minor bug
fix release.
Over skiboot-5.1.5, we have the following changes:
Generic:
- Ensure we run pollers in cpu_wait_job()
In root causing a bug on AST BMC Alistair found that pollers weren't
being run for around 3800ms.
This could show as not resetting the boot count sensor on successful
boot.
AST BMC Machines:
- hw/bt.c: Check for timeout after checking for message response
When deciding if a BT message has timed out we should first check for
a message response. This will ensure that messages will not time out
if there was a delay calling the pollers.
This could show as not resetting the boot count sensor on successful
boot.
