# Open Tasks (as of 16 Aug 2026)

| # | Task | Status / Next Step |
|---|------|-------------------|
| 1 | Verify tiny‑SPI SPL can read > 8 MiB from SPI‑NOR. | Unresolved – needs measurement. |
| 2 | Identify purpose of second rear‑side pad near MaskROM pad. | Unresolved – capture high‑res photos & continuity test. |
| 3 | Capture high‑resolution photos of rear‑side pads. | Pending. |
| 4 | Add missing interrupt‑controller node for RTL8367S in DTB. | Open. |
| 5 | Resolve PCIe BAR allocation (`pci=realloc`). | Planned verification. |
| 6 | Fine‑tune flow‑control on secondary GMAC (`end1`). | Open. |
| 7 | Implement persistent `pstore/ramoops` for kernel panic logs. | Open. |
| 8 | Review / tighten ACL in Rockusb driver INF (currently `Everyone` full access). | Open. |
| 9 | Verify Rockusb driver works on Windows 11. | Open. |
|10 | Add automated proxy detection (`G18PRO_PROXY`). | Planned. |
|11 | Investigate intermittent MaskROM fallback after flash (boot‑flag / `boot_success`). | Needs UART logs. |
|12 | Implement post‑flash verification watchdog script. | Open. |
|13 | Periodically update to newer Armbian (e.g., kernel 6.19). | Ongoing. |
|14 | Test `selfbuilt‑ums` mode (USB‑mass‑storage) for field diagnostics. | Open. |
|15 | Confirm necessity of `mode‑bootrom` DTB entry. | Open. |
|16 | Delete large temporary `/_to-delete/` (~8.8 GB) after operator approval. | Pending. |
|17 | Push local branch to upstream (credentials issue). | Manual step required. |
|18 | Graceful `poweroff` recovery (still hangs). | Unresolved (see troubleshooting). |
|19 | Verify DDR v1.25 impact on this board (currently using v1.21). | Not tested. |
|20 | Full A/B test of `syscon‑reboot‑mode` vs shutdown hook (completed; hook deemed redundant). | Documented. |
