Upcoming release - coreboot 4.11
================================
The 4.11 release is planned for October 2019
Update this document with changes that should be in the release
notes.
* Please use Markdown.
* See the [4.9](coreboot-4.9-relnotes.md) and [4.10](coreboot-4.10-relnotes.md)
release notes for the general format.
* The chip and board additions and removals will be updated right
before the release, so those do not need to be added.

Clean Up
--------
Because there was only a single developer board (AMD Torpedo)
using AGESA family 12h, and because there were multiple,
unique Coverity issues with it, the associated vendorcode will
be removed shortly after this release.

### `__PRE_RAM__` is deprecated
Preprocessor use of `defined(__PRE_RAM_)` have been mostly replaced with
`if (ENV_ROMSTAGE_OR_BEFORE)` or the inverse `if (ENV_RAMSTAGE)`.
The remaining cases and `-D__PRE_RAM__` are to be removed soon after release.

### `__BOOTBLOCK__` et.al. are converted
This applies to all `ENV_xxx` definitions found in `<rules.h>`.
Write code without preprocessor directives whenever possible, replacing
`#ifdef __BOOTBLOCK__` with `if (ENV_BOOTBLOCK)`
In cases where preprocessor is needed use `#if ENV_BOOTBLOCK` instead.
