Dear Maintainer,

I have tested flash-kernel on a Raspberry Pi 5 and 3A+
with the following entry in /etc/flash-kernel/db:

Machine: Raspberry Pi 5 Model B Rev 1.0Kernel-Flavors: arm64DTB-Id:
broadcom/bcm2712-rpi-5-b.dtbU-Boot-Script-Name:
bootscr.uboot-genericRequired-Packages: u-boot-toolsBoot-Script-Path:

Machine: Raspberry Pi 3 Model A Plus Rev 1.1Kernel-Flavors: arm64
armmpDTB-Id: broadcom/bcm2837-rpi-3-a-plus.dtbU-Boot-Script-Name:
bootscr.uboot-genericRequired-Packages: u-boot-toolsBoot-Script-Path:

Please add machine db entry for Raspberry Pi 5 and 3A+

The "Machine:" lines do not match what model is present in the .dtb
files.

Does /proc/device-tree/model show exactly what you have in the
"Machine:" lines?

“Raspberry Pi 5 Model B Rev 1.0” and “Raspberry Pi 3 Model A Plus Rev 1.1”

To clarify, I’ve tested only on the following specific revision of boards:

   -

   Raspberry Pi 5 ( Revision 1.0)
   -

   Raspberry Pi 3 A+ (Revision 1.1)

It seems there are other revisions of these models. The reference for those
is the Raspberry Pi revision code list:
