Hey John,

The Fedora Server WG is considering testing Fedora Server on an RPi 5.  According to
LWN.net, the 6.12 kernel (currently  supported in Fedora 41 has elementary support for the
ARM processor used by the RPi 5.

In the email archives from March 17, 2024, Peter lists 3 known missing bits.  Have those
deficits been filled?

I seem to recall someone saying they a platform is not listed as "supported" until all the
h/w is working.  The Fedora Server WG feels a server can be very useful without graphics
(it does require a serial console connection of some sort) and without wifi.  Assuming
those caveats, is the RPi 5 ready to be listed in arm-image-installer as even "partially"
supported?

Not yet, else I would have sent out at least a heads up for wider testing.

The core bits upstream ATM are basically core compute and mSD support. The key bit still needed for most things on the RPi5 is support for the RP1 chip because that has network and USB on it. I believe PCIe has mostly landed, but I need to do some more testing there.

I was planning on taking a closer look again at the RPi5 one the 6.14 merge window has closed as that will give me a much better idea what we can support in F-42.
