Changes in this release
==================
## New device-types
New supported devices:
* aaeon-UPN-EHLX4RE-A10-0864
* imx8ulp-evk
* imx93-11x11-evk
* mt8192-asurada-spherion-r0
* synquacer-uboot
## Grub based device-types
Allow device-type to easily disable interrupting boot. This is not required
if grub is build to always drop to a shell.
In the device-type template or device dictionary, add:
```jinja
{% set grub_needs_interrupt = false %}
```
## UUU and BCU
Add support for [BCU](https://github.com/NXPmicro/bcu#readme) to the UUU
based device-types. This utility allows changing the board's boot
configuration (mainly SD card, eMMC or USB Serial Download Protocol)
through a serial interface.
In the device dictionary, add:
```jinja
{% set bcu_board_id = '2-1.3' %}
```
Then in the job definition, you can use bcu directly:
```yaml
- boot:
method: uuu
commands:
- bcu: reset usb
- uuu: -b emmc {boot}
- bcu: set_boot_mode emmc
timeout:
minutes: 20
```
The support has been enabled for imx8dxl-evk imx8ulp-evk imx8mp-evk and
imx93-11x11-evk device-types.
## OpenID connect
LAVA server can now support OpenID connect (for instance Azure ID or
Keycloack) to authenticate users.
In roder to use this feature, you should install `mozilla-django-oidc` and
add to the settings:
```yaml
AUTH_OIDC:
OIDC_RP_CLIENT_ID: "1"
OIDC_RP_CLIENT_SECRET: "bd01adf93cfb"
OIDC_OP_AUTHORIZATION_ENDPOINT: "http://testprovider:8080/openid/authorize
"
OIDC_OP_TOKEN_ENDPOINT: "http://testprovider:8080/openid/token"
OIDC_OP_USER_ENDPOINT: "http://testprovider:8080/openid/userinfo"
```
See [mozilla-django-oidc](
https://mozilla-django-oidc.readthedocs.io/en/stable/settings.html) for the
full list of options.
## Transfer Overlay
For device-type where the base OS does not provide tools to download over
http (like wget or curl), the transfer overlay action can now use NFS.
In order to use this, the job definition would look like:
```yaml
- boot:
[...]
transfer_overlay:
transfer_method: nfs
download_command: mount -t nfs -o nolock
unpack_command: cp -rf
```
