Quartz64 Model A: Please enable ATAPI/SCSI optical drive support in kernel

Requests
1

I’m using a Pine64 Quartz64 Model A running DietPi as a SATA file server with a PCIe AHCI controller.
A Samsung SH-B083A Blu-ray/DVD drive is correctly detected by libata:
ata5.00: ATAPI: SAMSUNG DVDWBD SH-B083A, SB00, max UDMA/100
and also appears as a SCSI CD-ROM:
scsi 4:0:0:0: CD-ROM SAMSUNG DVDWBD SH-B083A SB00
However, no /dev/sr0 device is created because the Quartz64 kernel does not include CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR.
Could optical-drive support please be enabled for the Quartz64 Model A kernel configuration? Ideally:

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=m
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=m
CONFIG_ISO9660_FS=m
CONFIG_JOLIET=y
CONFIG_UDF_FS=m
UDF support would also be useful for DVD and Blu-ray data discs.

Thanks, all reasonable, indeed. Just added it to our kernel config: quartz64: enable CD/DVD device and filesystem support · MichaIng/DietPi@d87c52a · GitHub

Kernel build is running: quartz64 · MichaIng/DietPi@d87c52a · GitHub

It can be tested with

G_DEV_TEST_FIRMWARE

EDIT: I pushed them to our APT server, hence:

apt update
apt upgrade

Thank you for your quick work. I’ve installed the firmware update and will test it shortly. Much appreciated.
