Torizon OS Issue Tracker

 

The following table contains known issues, scheduled bug fixes, and feature improvements for the Torizon OS images. The tickets are split into two major states:

  • Submitted (open): new features and bug fixes for Torizon OS versions that have not yet been released. They may be scheduled for a specific release version; not planned; or in our backlog. All of them have one of the following states:
    • Known Issue: a bug or unexpected behavior that has been reported and pending a fix. Once fixed, the status will transition to Fixed.
    • Feature Request: a new feature that may be added to a future release. Once released, the status will transition to New Feature.
  • Released (closed): new features and bug fixes for BSP versions that have already been released. All of them have one of the following states:
    • Fixed: a bug that has been fixed and released.
    • New Feature: something that didn't exist before and was added to a news release.

Any schedules are not guaranteed but reflect the current planning. The planning could be shifted due to priority changes.
Issues that are scheduled for a specific version will be integrated into the mentioned version of the BSP.

We will update this table continuously in order to always provide the latest state of our development plan.

Please see also the Toradex Embedded Linux Support Strategy to learn more about the different releases.

How to obtain the Torizon OS Images

Using the Toradex Easy Installer application in a Toradex SoM connected to the internet is the easiest and fastest way to install the latest version of Torizon OS into the device. Toradex also offers offline installers.

6.1.0 (Release date: 2023-01-16)
6.1.0 quarterly release. Learn more on https://www.toradex.com/news/torizon-core-release-6-1-0-quarterly-release
TOR-2746FixedMissing /dev/colibri-spi-cs0 symlinkColibri iMX6, Colibri iMX6ULL, Colibri iMX7Open EmbeddedLow

Description: The Colibri Evaluation Board uses the SPI interface for an SPI-to-CAN controller, however, we do enable the spidev (a userspace SPI API) on the same SPI interface and CS with an overlay that is currently enabled by default. This leads to a conflict.

Starting from BSP 6.1.0, the overlay that enables spidev on the given SPI interface is not loaded by default. Our test infrastructure caught this change as a possible issue due to a missing symlink to "/dev/colibri-spi-cs0". In fact, this was the intended behavior after the change.

As a customer, if you want to use such an interface with spidev, you must disable the CAN and enable the spidev overlay. For more details on CAN and SPI in our BSP, refer to the CAN (Linux) and the SPI (Linux) articles. To manage device tree and overlays on TorizonCore, we recommend the articles Device Tree Overlays on Torizon and TorizonCore Builder Tool - Customizing TorizonCore Images.

6.0.0-devel-202210 (Release date: 2022-10-11)
6.0.0-devel-202210 monthly pre-release. Learn more on https://www.toradex.com/news/torizon-core-release-6-0-0-devel-202210-release-monthly
TOR-2432FixedTorizonCore 6.0.0-devel-202209 won't boot on Colibri iMX7Colibri iMX7KernelLow

Description: The Colibri iMX7 boot hangs during the kernel startup.

Update: this was fixed at the BSP level, so nothing was done on TorizonCore. Use a nightly image from September 30 or newer to get the fix.

5.7.2 (Release date: 2023-03-23)
5.7.2 patch release
TOR-2650FixedRunning "shutdown -h now" or "poweroff" on Torizon for colibri-imx7-emmc results in a partial rebootColibri iMX7KernelLow

Description: Colibri iMX7 has two watchdog sources: the SoC and the PMIC. BSP 5 uses the PMIC watchdog as "/dev/colibri-watchdog", which in turn is the one used by TorizonCore. It turns out that the watchdog firmware for the PMIC on BSP 5 is not as featureful as required to ensure the "shutdown" properly works.

5.7.0 (Release date: 2022-07-28)
5.7.0 LTS release. Learn more on https://www.toradex.com/news/torizon-core-release-5-7-0-quarterly-release
TOR-2398FixedChromium container fails to start in the evaluation containers on modules without GPUColibri iMX6ULL, Colibri iMX7Debian Base ContainersLow

Description: The Chromium and Cog containers were split, and HW acceleration on the GPU (rendering) enabled on Chromium. These changes have broken the startup of Portainer in our "TorizonCore with Evaluation Containers" image.

Description: When we integrated Cog in our kiosk-mode-browser, a bug prevented it from working on GPU-less SoMs (Colibri iMX6ULL and Colibri iMX7).

This has been fixed and it is possible to run Cog on GPU-less SoMs. Learn more on Running Cog

5.6.0-devel-202202 (Release date: 2022-02-01)
5.6.0-devel-202202 monthly pre-release
TOR-2058New FeatureAs a developer, I want to stop providing experimental support for NAND-based modules in TorizonCoreColibri iMX6ULL, Colibri iMX7Open Embedded

Description: While Toradex has never supported raw NAND-based SoMs (the lower-end versions of Colibri iMX6ULL and Colibri iMX7 with 256/512MB of RAM), those machines were available in meta-toradex-torizon as experimental.

As we don't plan to maintain them in the future, we are dropping the experimental support to indicate that to customers that may be doing their own experimentation with a raw NAND-based SoM and TorizonCore.

Workaround: If you plan to run TorizonCore on a raw NAND device in the future, you will have to maintain your own fork of TorizonCore, either in-house or through our partners.

Description: It seems like QApplication which is used for Widgets does not support automatic translation of touch events to mouse events. That leads to touchscreen not working with QTWidgets applications.

Description: On modules without GPU support such as Colibri iMX7 or Colibri iMX6ULL the Wayland compositor Weston is started with Pixman renderer. It seems that Chromium currently does not render properly when Weston is using Pixman renderer.

Workaround: Use Weston with Mesa software OpenGL (rebuild the Debian Weston base container and drop the `--use-pixman` flag in entry.sh).
