It seems endemic with embedded devices. Only big customers get the true list of errata, and of course the errata are random PDFs rather than a useful format. Even just having them on an ftp site with all the errata in one spot would save so much pain!

Sometimes you don't even get a PDF. Their Ethernet drivers for Cortex-M7 have been broken for years with subtle cache coherency bugs and the only discussion of it is a forum thread with now obsolete example code.

Oh no! I luckily never dealt with the ethernet drivers, but I had plenty of small issues with other drivers
