This patch basically does two things - 1) Remove unnecessary setting of flex_ratio to TDP nominal: Factory configured (default) Max Non-TURBO ratio(P1) is already cofigured in MSR_PLATFORM_INFO(0xCE). If this Maximum Non-TURBO Ratio(P1) needs to be modified, it should be done using MSR_FLEX_RATIO (0x194). Here, in this code, the FLEX_RATIO is being modified by the TDP Nominal Ratio, reading the MSR_CONFIG_TDP_NOMINAL(0x648). But this value is actually less than the factory configured Maximum Non TURBO Ratio (P1). So, this code is actually not required. Also, the Bit 12 in PCH Soft Strap Register is already set in descriptor. This Bit implies Processor Boot Max Frequency - 0 = Disable Boot Max Frequency 1 = Enable Boot Max Frequency (Default) This setting determines if the processor will operate at maximum frequency at power-on and boot. Thus this patch will avoid one extra platform warm reset now onwards. 2) Remove wrongly setting Max Frequency in Bootblock phase: In the function set_max_frequency(), the P-State max ratio was set to TDP Nominal ratio if C-TDP was enabled, else it was set to Max Non Trbo ratio. But, when the cpu gets reset, it will operate with the Max-Non Turbo ratio only, which is greater than the TDP Nominal ratio. So, no need to set back the ratio to TDP Nominal which is lower than the currently operating frequency.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See https://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * https://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * https://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * make * gcc / g++ Because Linux distribution compilers tend to use lots of patches. coreboot does lots of "unusual" things in its build system, some of which break due to those patches, sometimes by gcc aborting, sometimes - and that's worse - by generating broken object code. Two options: use our toolchain (eg. make crosstools-i386) or enable the ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case). * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * pkg-config * libssl-dev (openssl) Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig' and 'make nconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------ If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see https://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: https://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: https://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
