<p>skiboot 5.9.4 was released on Wednesday November 29th, 2017. It replaces
<a class="reference internal" href="skiboot-5.9.3.html#skiboot-5-9-3"><span class="std std-ref">skiboot-5.9.3</span></a> as the current stable release in the 5.9.x series.</p>
<p>Over <a class="reference internal" href="skiboot-5.9.3.html#skiboot-5-9-3"><span class="std std-ref">skiboot-5.9.3</span></a>, we have one NPU2/NVLink2 fix that works around
a potential glitch (the one <a class="reference internal" href="skiboot-5.9.3.html#skiboot-5-9-3"><span class="std std-ref">skiboot-5.9.3</span></a> would hard crash on rather
than let a system continue to run until it mysteriously crashed later on).</p>
<p>That fix is in two parts:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>npu2: hw-procedures: Change phy_rx_clock_sel values to recover from a
potential glitch.</p></li>
<li><p>npu2: hw-procedures: Manipulate IOVALID during training</p>
<p>Ensure that the IOVALID bit for this brick is raised at the start of
link training, in the reset_ntl procedure.</p>
<p>Then, to protect us from a glitch when the PHY clock turns off or gets
chopped, lower IOVALID for the duration of the phy_reset and
phy_rx_dccal procedures.</p>
</li>
</ul>
