The RD-AC5X doesn't make use of EFI or SMBIOS. Recently we started seeing boot failures such asWARNING: SMBIOS table_address overflow 27f60f020 Failed to write SMBIOS table initcall failed at event 10/(unknown) (err=-22) ### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ### The error is because the physical address of the RAM on the AC5X SoC is above the 32GiB boundary. As we don't need SMBIOS or EFI this can be safely disabled. Signed-off-by: Chris Packham <[email protected]>

--- This probably should have been part of the series I sent as https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/[email protected]/ but I didn't have the RD-AC5X board at the time. There is another issue that's stopping the RD-AC5X board from booting with current master but with the suspect commit reverted you can see the same SMBIOS issue I was seeing on the x240. configs/mvebu_ac5_rd_defconfig | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/configs/mvebu_ac5_rd_defconfig b/configs/mvebu_ac5_rd_defconfig index dbf1e3136cdf..e8fa22b648be 100644 --- a/configs/mvebu_ac5_rd_defconfig +++ b/configs/mvebu_ac5_rd_defconfig @@ -85,3 +85,4 @@ CONFIG_USB_ETHER_ASIX88179=y CONFIG_USB_ETHER_MCS7830=y CONFIG_USB_ETHER_RTL8152=y CONFIG_USB_ETHER_SMSC95XX=y +# CONFIG_SMBIOS is not set
