Both boot are stopped on u-boot DRAM reporting.

This boot fail is also happened on Lakka, and reported as issue #1999. (https://github.com/libretro/Lakka-LibreELEC/issues/1999)

As this report, Lakka is working with odroid-xu3 image + odroid-xu4 dtb on XU4 device.
And, I confirmed LE13 nightly build also working with odroid-xu3 image + odroid-xu4 dtb on XU4 device.

This problem seems to be related with XU4 u-boot defconfig.
(1/3) Add "CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN=0x5004000" LibreELEC-bootlog(1-Add-CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN).log
... DRAM size is shown but still freeze.
(2/3) Add "CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE=0x01600000" LibreELEC-bootlog(2-Add-CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE).log
... initcall failed is shown and system halted.
(3/3) Add "# CONFIG_EXYNOS_TMU is not set" LibreELEC-bootlog(3-unSet-CONFIG_EXYNOS_TMU).log
... linux is started and splash screen is shown.

These 3 configs are contained in XU3 u-boot defconfig.

Can I create new pull request for this?

Thank you very much your fix
I will confirm the fix on LE nightly build (fix included version).

I tried to build with your patch.
Build will failed probably.
Because u-boot has no arch/arm/dts/exynos5422-odroidxu4.dts

make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/arm/dts/exynos5422-odroidxu4.dtb', needed by 'dtbs'. Stop.
attached build logLE-Samsung-Exynos-arm-build.log, Line 2257

This may good to use "CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE="exynos5422-odroidxu3"" I think.

Thank you very much.

I confirmed the fix boot fail problem on Odroid XU4 LE13 night build.

LE12 boot log has something panic information.
But this is another problem and LE13 has no panic info.
So, I change this post to "resolve".

Thanks a lot!

Resolved

chewitt

panic was not shown in boot log when # CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is not set on LE12.
It seems to fix.

Coule you please check my test result?
my modification is not-set-CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING-in-kernelconfig.txt
bootlog is LE12-bootlog-(not-set-CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING).log
all log is LE12(not-set-CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING)log-2025-05-01-09.02.46.zip

P.S.
Lakka-v6.x is same, there was no panic.

I will confirm your #10024-LE13 / #10025-LE12 on next nightly build.
Many thanks!

I confirmed the PR#10024-LE13/PR#10025-LE12 on Odroid XU4 night build.
Both have no panic(?) log. It seems to good.
