### SAR support in VPD for Chrome OS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SAR support in VPD has been deprecated for Chrome OS platforms for > 1
|
|
|
|
|
year now. All new Chrome OS platforms have switched to using SAR
|
|
|
|
|
tables from CBFS. For the next release, coreboot is updated to align
|
|
|
|
|
with the Chrome OS factory changes and hence SAR support in VPD is
|
|
|
|
|
deprecated in [CB:51483](https://review.coreboot.org/51483). Starting
|
|
|
|
|
with this release, anyone building coreboot for an already released
|
|
|
|
|
Chrome OS platform with SAR table in VPD will have to extract the
|
|
|
|
|
"wifi_sar" key from VPD and add it as a file to CBFS using following
|
|
|
|
|
steps:
|
|
|
|
|
* On DUT, read SAR value using `vpd -i RO_VPD -g wifi_sar`
|
|
|
|
|
* In coreboot repo, generate CBFS SAR file using:
|
|
|
|
|
`echo ${SAR_STRING} > site-local/${BOARD}-sar.hex`
|
|
|
|
|
* Add to site-local/Kconfig:
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
config WIFI_SAR_CBFS_FILEPATH
|
|
|
|
|
string
|
|
|
|
|
default "site-local/${BOARD}-sar.hex"
|
|
|
|
|
```
