Hello, the usb 3 port no longer works after running the apt upgrade command. It seems to me that the armbian firmware package has been updated. The usb 2 ports still work but the transfer speed is slower…
Is it possible to go back to the old version where usb 3 was working?

Do you know if there is a way to downgrade Armbian kernel/firmware
I had the same problem but with the network card, so I cannot longer SSH to it, or run armbian-config. I traced the problem to the last linux-image-current-rockchip64 update. I restored a backup I had and started to test. What broke it was this:
javi@rock64:~$ sudo apt list -a linux-image-current-rockchip64

update-initramfs: Converting to u-boot format
The version 21.08.2 was working fine but when I went to update to 22.02.1, it showed all of those errors and that’s it, no network card and probably no quite a lot of other things.
I’ll restore the backup and hold back that package until it’s fixed.
Create an image of the sdcard now and then!
yes looks like latest Armbian kernel is having some issues. We have a couple of reports for various issues with this kernel version.
following should rollback and avoid kernel being updated next time again, until we wait for a fix from Armbian side.
apt install linux-dtb-current-rockchip64=21.08.2 linux-image-current-rockchip64=21.08.2
apt-mark hold linux-dtb-current-rockchip64 linux-image-current-rockchip64
There is a device tree overlay available named “usb4”. Not sure whether this was there before. Please try to add “usb4” to the “overlays” line in /boot/armbianEnv.txt.
Another thing: Do not upgrade linux-image-current-rockchip64 without upgrading linux-dtb-current-rockchip64 as well. Kernel and device tree must always match.
The error messages during initramfs generation are actually interesting. Also since the contain NFS, known to be broken with latest kernel. I wonder whether some internal references are wrong, regarding compressed (with *.xz ending) vs uncompressed kernel modules. Probably the following solves it as well:
depmod -a
update-initramfs -u
And yet another thing that caught my eyes: Why your kernel packages have a “bionic” suffix? Is the Armbian repo correct?
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian.list
USB 3 port still not working
/boot/armbianEnv.txt
verbosity=4

cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian.list
deb http://apt.armbian.com/ bullseye main
The line needs to be called “overlays=usb4” with plural s 
.
Thank you for the reply! I’ll get another SD card and try to update linux-dtb-current-rockchip64 at the same time than the linux-image-current-rockchip64. I updated the dtb first to see which one was the one that created the problems.
I’ll try as well the depmod and intrafms update and see if that fixes something.
Regarding the “bionic” suffix in the repo, I have no idea. I installed armbian and I didn’t add any other ubuntu or debian repo, so who knows. Fun fact: in the welcome screen when you log it with ssh now it says “Ubuntu 18.04” instead of armbian. It changed when I updated all the packages (around 280) of my backup image from Dec 2020 I had around. So yes, there is something fishy there… Maybe it didn’t like to update very old packages, who knows… But as far as I know, except the last version of the linux-image-current-rockchip64 package, everything else works fine.
Thank you!
Edit: I forgot to post the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian.list
deb > http://apt.armbian.com > bionic main bionic-utils bionic-desktop
OK, a bit of an update:
I downgraded the version of linux-dtb-current-rockchip64 to match the one for linux-image-current-rockchip64
sudo apt install linux-dtb-current-rockchip64=21.08.2
javi@rock64:~$ apt list --upgradable

And rebooted just in case. Then I run

javi@rock64:~$ sudo update-initramfs -u

update-initramfs: Converting to u-boot format
So probably it’s just a matter of waiting for a fix…
deb > http://apt.armbian.com > bionic main bionic-utils bionic-desktop
That is definitely wrong.
I installed armbian and I didn’t add any other ubuntu or debian repo, so who knows.
What do you mean by “installed armbian”? You mean you installed DietPi on an Armbian image? If this was an Armbian Ubuntu image, it shouldn’t be possible to install DietPi on it, as the PREP script checks for the distro and errors out if it is not Debian. Otherwise, did you manually edit that file, or where did you get the image from?
I’m not sure now distro and version it is at all, can you paste the output of:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
cat /etc/os-release
dpkg -l | grep ubuntu
Ah, I’m so sorry. I looked for problems similar to mine and I landed on this forum not realising that DietPi was a specific distro. I just flashed my SD with Armbian for the Rock64 on 2019 probably, and I’ve been updating it since then. So yes, it’s not a DietPi distro. I’m sorry for the confusion and the wasted time. Although I guess it’s good to know the problem with the kernel happens with other distros as well.
Just in case it’s useful, this is the output of your commands:
javi@rock64:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ bionic main restricted universe multiverse
#deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ bionic main restricted universe multiverse

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ bionic-backports main restricted universe multiverse
#deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ bionic-backports main restricted universe multiverse
This output is definitely wrong for some reason. It changed Armbian for Ubuntu:

There are more packages but they don’t fit in the message…
Thank you for the support and I’m sorry again.
Ah okay that makes all sense then. Not sure whether Armbian ships an own/etc/os-release file, so probably it was interned, while it’s probably not smart given that the underlying base OS indeed is Ubuntu which should be represented by this file.
Since we use the same kernel for ROCK64 (from the Debian suite of the Armbian repo, but basically it’s the same) it makes sense that DietPi suffers from the same issue.
You may want to report it here, at least I do not see that it was retorted yet: https://forum.armbian.com/forum/21-rockchip-3288-3328/
Although, one problem is that the ROCK64 is not officially supported anymore, i.e. there is no Armbian maintainer for this SBC anymore, which may explain why this issue hasn’t been detected or fixed yet 
.
USB 3 port still not working

I came back under the old version the usb3 port works again.

apt-mark hold linux-dtb-current-rockchip64 linux-image-current-rockchip64
Thank you very much! I’ll report it to the Armbian forum and in the meantime I’ll tinker with other distros to see if there is one that works with the latest kernel. I flashed the other day the Armbian_21.08.1_Rock64_bullseye_current_5.10.60.img.xz image, updated everything and it worked but I didn’t test it properly and I didn’t check if it updated to the 5.15 kernel (we know 5.10 works). But in any case, the thought of having to configure everything again is putting me off
Thank you again!
Another update that it could be interesting. I just flashed the image Armbian_21.08.1_Rock64_bullseye_current_5.10.60.img.xz, updated everything and the rock64 looks like it’s running fine!
javi@rock64:~$ uname -a
Linux rock64 5.15.25-rockchip64 #22.02.1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Feb 27 09:05:47 UTC 2022 aarch64 GNU/Linux
I’ve mounted an external USB3 HDD and done some quick testing:
javi@rock64:/mnt/MyPassport1TB$ sudo hdparm -tv /dev/sda7
/dev/sda7:
multcount = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 256 (on)
geometry = 114808/255/63, sectors = 1844398080, start = 109056000
Timing buffered disk reads: 308 MB in 3.01 seconds = 102.38 MB/sec
So it looks like the USB3 port is working fine as well. So I think there is hope for this kernel!
Interesting. Probably something changed in the boot.cmd/scr/armbianEnv.txt which became required now. I’ll compare those. Ah and maybe a U-Boot upgrade was required, i.e. we didn’t test on the old image:
. /usr/lib/u-boot/platform_install.sh
write_uboot_platform "$DIR" "$(lsblk -npo PKNAME "$(findmnt -Ufnro SOURCE -M /)")"
Comparing the /boot/armbianEnv.txt, some USB quirks have been removed, this line does not exist anymore:
usbstoragequirks=0x2537:0x1066:u,0x2537:0x1068:u
It disables UAS for drives which have/had issues with it. Probably with recent kernel and firmware it causes exactly these issues.
/boot/boot.cmd and /boot/boot.scr are identical, so either U-Boot or the USB quirks are the relevant difference.
I’ve tried to run those two commands before updating linux-image-current-rockchip64 and linux-dbt-current-rockchip64 from 21.08.2 to 22.02.1 but the result was the same errors on the update and no network after reboot. I run them without sudo. They just didn’t print anything so I assumed they worked. Should I try with sudo? Typically if it’s needed you’re told that you don’t have permissions or it throws some kind of error.
Another update. I’ve tried running the two commands with sudo and removing the usb3 quirks but again, the result is the same. I’m not sure how to remove the quirks properly though because if you reboot, they appear again…

update-initramfs: Converting to u-boot format
Setting up linux-dtb-current-rockchip64 (22.02.1) ...
Let me know if you think any other thing to try!
The USB quicks reappear? 
When you run:
sudo sed -i '/usbstoragequirks/d' /boot/armbianEnv.txt
reboot
They are again/still there after reboot?
Btw, before upgrading U-Boot, assure that the U-Boot package is up-to-date as well:
apt install linux-u-boot-rock64-current
The U-Boot flashing itself indeed needs to be run as root. Failures are redirected to /dev/null along with other output, which isn’t so clever indeed. The following should work:
sudo bash -c '. /usr/lib/u-boot/platform_install.sh; write_uboot_platform "$DIR" "$(lsblk -npo PKNAME "$(findmnt -Ufnro SOURCE -M /)")"'
The write_uboot_platform alone cannot be executed with sudo, since it is a function created by sourcing the platform_install.sh. But sudo clears the environment, hence the function does not exist within the sudo environment. So both needs to be done in one sudo call.
