# Project Ideas
This section collects ideas to improve coreboot and related projects and
should serve as a pool of ideas for people who want to enter the field
of firmware development but need some guidance what to work on.
These tasks can be adopted as part of programs like Google Summer of
Code or by motivated individuals outside such programs.
Each entry should outline what would be done, the benefit it brings
to the project, the pre-requisites, both in knowledge and parts. They
should also list people interested in supporting people who want to work
on them - since we started building this list for Google Summer of Code,
we'll adopt its term for those people and call them mentors.
Documentation: take the sting out of the requirements The requirements read a bit as if we only encourage coreboot experts to try to take on these projects. These requirements should be understood as "this is what you'll need to learn", hopefully guiding interested people in picking a project that suits their interests.

The requirements for each project aim for productive work on the project,
but it's always possible to learn them "on the job". If you have any
doubt if you can bring yourself up to speed in a required time frame
(e.g. for GSoC), feel free to ask in the community or the mentors listed
with the projects. We can then try together to figure out if you're a
good match for a project, even when requirements might not all be met.

## Support Power9/Power8 in coreboot
There are some basic PPC64 stubs in coreboot, and there's open hardware
in TALOS2 and its family. While they already have fully open source
firmware, coreboot support adds a unified story for minimal firmware
across architectures.
### Requirements
* coreboot knowledge: Should be familiar with making chipset level
changes to the code.
* other knowledge: A general idea of the Power architecture, the more,
the better
* hardware requirements: QEMU Power bring-up exists, and even if it
probably needs to be fixed up, that shouldn't be an exceedingly large
task. For everything else, access to real Power8/9 hardware and recovery
tools (e.g. for external flashing) is required.

## Fully support building coreboot with the Clang compiler
Most coreboot code is written in C, and it would be useful to support
a second compiler suite in addition to gcc. Clang is another popular
compiler suite and the build system generally supports building coreboot
with it, but firmware is a rather special situation and we need to
adjust coreboot and Clang some more to get usable binaries out of that
combination.
The goal would be to get the emulation targets to boot reliably first,
but also to support real hardware. If you don't have hardware around,
you likely will find willing testers for devices they own and work from
their bug reports.
### Requirements
* coreboot knowledge: Have a general concept of the build system
* Clang knowledge: It may be necessary to apply minor modifications to Clang
itself, but at least there will be Clang-specific compiler options etc to
adapt, so some idea how compilers work and how to modify their behavior is
helpful.
* hardware requirements: If you have your own hardware that is already
supported by coreboot that can be a good test target, but you will debug
other people's hardware, too.
* debugging experience: It helps if you know how to get the most out of a bug
report, generate theories, build patches to test them and figure out what's
going on from the resulting logs.

## Learn hardware behavior from I/O and memory access logs
[SerialICE](https://www.serialice.com) is a tool to trace the behavior of
executable code like firmware images. One result of that is a long log file
containing the accesses to hardware resources.
It would be useful to have a tool that assists a developer-analyst in deriving
knowledge about hardware from such logs. This likely can't be entirely
automatic, but a tool that finds patterns and can propagate them across the
log (incrementially raising the log from plain I/O accesses to a high-level
description of driver behavior) would be of great use.
This is a research-heavy project.
### Requirements
* Driver knowledge: Somebody working on this should be familiar with
how hardware works (eg. MMIO based register access, index/data port
accesses) and how to read data sheets.
* Machine Learning: ML techniques may be useful to find structure in traces.

The frontend should use established UI libraries or frameworks (for example
Angular) to display the current board status, that is if it's working or not
and some details provided with the last test. If a board isn't working the last
working commit (if any) should be shown in addition to the broken one.
Provide a script/tool that allows to:
1. Push mainboard details from coreboot master CI
2. Push mainboard test results from authenticated users containing
* working
* commit hash
* bootlog (if any)
* dmesg (if it's booting)
* timestamps (if it's booting)
* coreboot config
### Requirements
* coreboot knowledge: Non-technical, needed to perform requirements analysis
* software knowledge: Golang, SQL for the backend, JS for the frontend
### Mentors
* Patrick Rudolph <patrick.rudolph@9elements.com>
* Christian Walter <christian.walter@9elements.com>
