Significant changes
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
|
||||
### Native refcode implementation for Bay Trail
|
||||
|
||||
Bay Trail no longer needs a refcode binary to function properly. The refcode
|
||||
was reimplemented as coreboot code, which should be functionally equivalent.
|
||||
Thus, coreboot only needs to run the MRC.bin to successfully boot Bay Trail.
|
||||
|
||||
### Unusual config files to build test more code
|
||||
|
||||
There's some new highly-unusual config files, whose only purpose is to coerce
|
||||
Jenkins into build-testing several disabled-by-default coreboot config options.
|
||||
This prevents them from silently decaying over time because of build failures.
|
||||
|
||||
### Initial support for Intel Trusted eXecution Technology
|
||||
|
||||
coreboot now supports enabling Intel TXT. Though it's not feature-complete yet,
|
||||
the code allows successfully launching tboot, a Measured Launch Environment. It
|
||||
was tested on Haswell using an Asrock B85M Pro4 mainboard with TPM 2.0 on LPC.
|
||||
Though support for other platforms is still not ready, it is being worked on.
|
||||
The Haswell MRC.bin needs to be patched so as to enable DPR. Given that the MRC
|
||||
binary cannot be redistributed, the best long-term solution is to replace it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Hidden PCI devices
