@ -61,4 +61,19 @@ of the existing Picasso SoC code the common parts of the code were
|
|||
moved to the common AMD SoC code, so that they could be used by the
|
||||
Cezanne code instead of adding another slightly different copy.
|
||||
|
||||
### X86 bootblock layout
|
||||
|
||||
The static size C_ENV_BOOTBLOCK_SIZE was mostly dropped in favor of
|
||||
dynamically allocating the stage size; the Kconfig is still available
|
||||
to use as a fixed size and to enforce a maximum for selected chipsets.
|
||||
Linker sections are now top-aligned for a reduced flash footprint and to
|
||||
maintain the requirements of near jump from reset vector.
|
||||
|
||||
### ACPI GNVS framework
|
||||
|
||||
SMI handlers for APM_CNT_GNVS_UDPATE were dropped; GNVS pointer to SMM is
|
||||
now passed from within SMM_MODULE_LOADER. Allocation and initialisations
|
||||
for common ACPI GNVS table entries were largely moved to one centralized
|
||||
implementation.
