+skiboot-5.1.0-beta1
+===================
+
+skiboot-5.1.0-beta1 was released on July 21st, 2015.
+
+skiboot-5.1.0-beta1 is the first beta release of skiboot 5.1, which will
+become a new stable release, replacing skiboot-5.0 (released April 14th 2015)
+
+Skiboot 5.1-beta1 contains all fixes from skiboot-5.0 stable branch up to
+skiboot-5.0.5.
+
+New features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Over skiboot-5.0, the following features have been added:
+
+* Centaur i2c support
+* Add Naples chip (CPU, PHB, LPC serial interrupts) support
+* Added qemu platform
+* improvements to FSI error handling
+* improvements in chip TOD failover (some only on FSP systems)
+* Set Relative Priority Register (RPR) to recommended value
+
+  * this affects thread priority in SMT modes
+* greatly reduce memory consumption by CPU stacks for non-present CPUs
+
+  * Previously we would reserve enough memory for max PIR for each CPU type.
+  * This fix frees up 77MB of RAM on a typical P8 system.
+* increased OPAL API documentation
+* Asynchronous preloading of resources from FSP/flash
+
+  * improves boot time on some systems
+* Basic Garrison platform support
+* Add Mambo platform (P8 Functional Simulator, systemsim)
+
+  * includes fake NVRAM, RTC
+* Support building with GCOV, increasing memory for skiboot binary to 2MB
+
+  * includes boot code coverage testing
+* Increased skiboot HEAP size.
+
+  * We are not aware of any system where you would run out, but on large
+    systems it was getting closer than we liked.
+* add boot_tests.sh for helping automate boot testing on FSP and BMC machines
+* Versioning of pflash and gard utilities to help Linux (or other OS)
+  distributions with packaging.
+* OCC throttle status messages to host
+* CAPP timebase sync ("ibm,capp-timebase-sync" in DT to indicate CAPP timebase
+  was synced by OPAL)
+
+New features for FSP based machines
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* in-band IPMI support
+* ethernet adaptor location codes
+* add DIMM frequency information to device tree
+* improvements in FSP error log code paths
+* fix some boot time memory leaks
+
+  * harmless to end user
+
+New features for AMI BMC based machines
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* PCIe power workaround for K80
+* Added support for Macronix 128Mbit flash chips
+* Initial PRD support for Firestone platform
+* improved reliability when BMC reboots
+
+Bug Fixes
+^^^^^^^^^
+The following bugs have been fixed:
+
+* Increase PHB3 timeout for electrical links coming up to 2 seconds.
+
+  * fixes issues with some Mellanox cards
+* Hang in opal_reinit_cpus() that could prevent kdump from functioning
+* PHB3: fix crash in phb3_init
+* PHB3: fix crash with fenced PHB in phb3_init_hw()
+* Fix bugs in hw/bt.c (interface for IPMI on BMC machines) that could possibly
+  lead to a crash (dereferencing invalid address, deadlock)
+* ipmi/sel: fix use-after-free
+* Bug fixes in EEH handling
+
+  * opal_pci_next_error() cleared OPAL_EVENT_PCI_ERROR unconditionally, possibly leading to missed errors.
+
+FSP-specific bugs fixed:
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* (also fixed in skiboot-5.0.2) Fix race in firenze_get_slot_info() leading to
+  assert() with many PCI cards
+
+  With many PCI cards, we'd hit a race where calls to
+  firenze_add_pcidev_to_fsp_inventory would step on each other leading to
+  memory corruption and finally an assert() in the allocator being hit
+  during boot.
+* PCIe power workaround for K80 cards
+* /ibm,opal/led renamed to /ibm,opal/leds in Device Tree
+
+  * compatible change as no FSP based systems shipped with skiboot-5.0
+
+General improvements:
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* don't run pollers on non-boot CPUs in time_wait
+* improvements to opal-prd, pflash, libflash
+
+  * including new blocklevel interface in libflash
+* many minor fixes to issues found by static analysis
+* improvements in FSP error log code paths
+* code cleanup in memory allocator
+* Don't expose individual nvram partitions in the device tree, just the whole
+  flash device.
+* build improvements for building on ppc64el host
+* improvements in cpu_relax() for idle threads, needed for GCOV on large
+  machines.
+* Optimized memset() for POWER8, greatly reducing number of instructions
+  executed for boot, which helps boot time in simulators.
+* Major improvements in hello_world kernel
+
+  * Bloat of huge 17 instruction test case reduced to 10.
+* Disable bust_locks for general calls of abort()
+
+  * Should enable better error messages during abort() when other users of
+    LPC bus exist (e.g. flash)
