| Release Notes for OpenPower Firmware v2.0.7 |
| =========================================== |
| |
| op-build v2.0.6 was released on Friday August 3rd, 2018 and replaces op-build v2.0.6 as the current stable release in |
| the 2.0.x series. |
| |
| It is recommended that v2.0.7 be used over any previous v2.0.x version on POWER9 systems due to the bug fixes contained within. |
| |
| The only update in this release is to skiboot v6.0.7 to work around a hardware errata in the interrupt controller on POWER9. |
| |
| The bug fix is: |
| |
| - xive: Disable block tracker |
| |
| Due to some HW errata, the block tracking facility (performance |
| optimisation for large systems) should be disabled on Nimbus chips. |
| Disable it unconditionally for now. |
