Portwell PQ7-M107

This page describes how to run coreboot on the Portwell PQ7-M107.

PQ7-M107 are assembled with different onboard memory modules: Rev 1.0 Onboard Samsung K4B8G1646D-MYKO memory Rev 1.1 and 1.2 Onboard Micron MT41K512M16HA-125A memory Rev 1.3 Onboard Kingston B5116ECMDXGGB memory

Use 'make menuconfig' to configure onboard memory manufacturer in Mainboard menu.

Required blobs

This board currently requires: fsp blob 3rdparty/fsp/BraswellFspBinPkg/FspBin/BSWFSP.fd Microcode Intel Braswell cpuid 1046C4 version 410 (Used pre-built binary retrieved from Intel site)

Flashing coreboot

Internal programming

The main SPI flash can be accessed using flashrom.

External programming

The system has an internal flash chip which is a 8 MiB soldered SOIC-8 chip. This chip is located on the top middle side of the board. It's located between SoC and Q7 connector. Use clip (or solder wires) to program the chip. Specifically, it's a Winbond W25Q64FW (1.8V), whose datasheet can be found here.

Known issues

  • The PQ7 module contains Q7 connector only. Depending on the carrier serial/video/pcie ports might be available.

Untested

  • hardware monitor
  • SDIO
  • Full Embedded Controller support

Working (using carrier)

  • USB
  • Gigabit Ethernet
  • integrated graphics
  • flashrom
  • external graphics
  • PCIe
  • eMMC
  • SATA
  • serial port
  • SMBus
  • HDA (codec on carrier)
  • initialization with FSP MR2
