rvspace: tracking document: add nvme to linux+u-boot sections

[colemickens]

Hi,

I am using the downstream forks of u-boot and linux that have NVME support. I am particularly interested in when those features will land in their upstreams.

Is it possible to add entries for nvme under linux and u-boot on the rvspace tracking page?

Thanks!

NVMe support in u-boot has been merged u-boot/u-boot@8db2224

u-boot doesn't build for me though:

Same issue when using v2023.10-rc1, v2023.07.02 builds just fine. Something got broken between these two tags.

I seem to get the same behavior, unfortunately.

usb changes were merged last week, try master branch https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/commits/master

[kasperk81]

https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/releases/tag/v2023.10-rc3 has all the upstreamed patches

Nice. I think all patches to use the Visionfive 2 as a homelab server have merged by now.

I'm about to setup my board to boot from an NVMe SSD. How would we boot from NVMe without an SD card? Which boot mode pins should a user choose?
