coreboot 4.9 release notes

The 4.9 release is planned for November 2018

Update this document with changes that should be in the release notes.

  • Please use Markdown.
  • See the 4.7 and 4.8 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.

General changes

  • Various code cleanups
  • Removed device_t in favor of struct device* in ramstage code
  • Improve adherence to coding style
  • Expand use of the postcar stage
  • Add bootblock compression capability: on systems that copy the bootblock from very slow flash to ERAM, allow adding a stub that decompresses the bootblock into ERAM to minimize the amount of flash reads

Toolchain

  • Update IASL to version 10280531
