It is envisaged to upgrade the Linux kernel of the agency to [5.4.44 (LTS)](https://lwn.net/Articles/820973/) in a short future.  
If you have any comments about that (or suggestions), please let us know 🙂

The agency has been upgraded with a Linux kernel 5.4.44 (LTS).  
Support for vExpress, MERIDAv2, and Raspberry Pi 4 have been done too.

Alignment of backend and frontend drivers, as well as MEs (SOO.domotics family) will be done in future branches. SOO.refso3 is OK.

There is still an issue with ASF (Agency Security Framework). Encryption seems to fail. Investigations will be done very soon.
