Gabriel Valcazar f4d41d2c19 imx-vpu: sync with meta-fsl-bsp-release branch sumo-4.14.98-2.1.0 
Remove our .bbappend, which was wrongly making this recipe compatible with the
imx8. Directly port NXP's recipe (v5.4.39), which is newer than the one in
meta-freescale (v5.4.38).

Known Issues and Limitations

This is a list of known issues and limitations at the time of release. An updated list can be found on the online documentation.

  • Firmware update
    • The software update package must be located in the root level of the update media (subfolders are not yet supported).
  • Cloud Connector
    • Remote file system management fails with long file names and paths (over 255 characters).
  • For P2P connections Digi recommends "Negotiated GO" modes. The QCA6564 devices (ConnectCore 6UL) running a 4.14 kernel version fail to join to autonomous groups.
  • Trustfence is not yet supported on U-Boot v2018.03.

ConnectCore 6UL

  • ConnectCore 6UL System-on-Module (SOM)
    • The UART connected to the Bluetooth chip on early versions of the ConnectCore 6UL system-on-module (hardware version < 4) cannot properly execute flow control. To work around this issue, UART1 of these SOM versions has been configured to operate at 115200 bps and without hardware flow control, reducing the maximum throughput of this interface.
    • When using wireless concurrent mode as the wireless interface is shared between several different functionalities performance is reduced.
    • When using wireless concurrent mode Digi recommends to keep the different modes on the same frequency channels. For example, when configuring access point mode on channel 36 on band A, the recommendation would be to connect to the same channel both in station mode and WiFi direct so that the radio performance is optimized.
    • When working as an access point, DFS capable channels in band A are not currently supported.
    • The QCA6564 wireless chip does not support Wake On Wireless LAN.

ConnectCore 8X

  • i.MX8QXP Processor
    • GPU maximum performance reduced. The maximum frequency targets are 850 MHz for the shaders and 700 MHz for the core. However, in this hardware release the maximum frequency is limited to 650 MHz for the shaders and 600 MHz for the core, with the corresponding performance reduction. These targets will be met in future releases of the hardware.
    • BSDL operation is not supported. It will be available in future releases of the hardware.
  • Digi Embedded Yocto
    • The following features are not supported in this release for the ConnectCore 8X platform:
      • Trustfence (TM)
      • Digi Remote Manager
