|
|
Please note: the coreboot implementation for this boards is in its
|
|
|
|
Alpha state and isn't fully tested yet.

## Required blobs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This board currently requires:
|
|
|
|
fsp blobs 3rdparty/fsp/KabylakeFspBinPkg/Fsp_M.fd
|
|
|
|
3rdparty/fsp/KabylakeFspBinPkg/Fsp_S.fd
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Microcode 3rdparty/intel-microcode/intel-ucode
|

|
## Flashing coreboot
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Internal programming
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The SPI flash can be accessed using [flashrom].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### External programming
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The system has an internal flash chip which is a 16 MiB soldered SOIC-8 chip.
|
|
|
|
Specifically, it's a Winbond W25Q128JVSIQ (3.3V).

|

Specifically, it's a Winbond W25Q128JVSIM (3.3V).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Flashing of these devices is very difficult, disassembling the system destroys the cooling
|
|
|
|
solution. Wires need to be connected to be able to flash using an external programmer.

## Known issues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- None
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Untested
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Hardware monitor
|
|
|
|
- SDIO
|
|
|
|
- Full Embedded Controller support
|
|
|
|
- eMMC
|
|
|
|
- SATA
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Working
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- USB
|
|
|
|
- Gigabit Ethernet
|
|
|
|
- Graphics (Using FSP GOP)
|
|
|
|
- flashrom
|
|
|
|
- PCIe
|
|
|
|
- EC serial port
|
|
|
|
- SMBus
|
|
|
|
- Initialization with FSP
|
|
|
|
- SeaBIOS payload (commit a5cab58e9a3fb6e168aba919c5669bea406573b4)
|
|
|
|
- TianoCore payload (commit a5cab58e9a3fb6e168aba919c5669bea406573b4)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All of the above has been briefly tested by booting Linux from the TianoCore payload.
|
|
|
|
SeaBios has been checked to the extend that it runs to the boot selection and provides display
|
|
|
|
output.
