This change adds mem_list_variant.txt that contains the list of memory parts used by ripto and Makefile.inc generated by gen_part_id.go using mem_list_variant.txt. In the final change of the series, all volteer variants will be switched from using the current SPDs to new auto-generated SPDs. Differences in auto-generated SPD from current SPD are as follows: Part: K4U6E3S4AA-MGCL Byte# Current New Explanation 6 0x95 0x94 Signal loading is not used by MRC. Bits 1:0 set to 0. 16 0x48 0x00 Signal loading is not used by MRC. Set to 0x00. 19 0x0F 0xFF As per JEDEC spec, tckMax should be 100ns. So, value should be 0xff as per datasheet. 21,22 0x55,0x00 0x54,0x05 As per datasheet, part supports CAS latencies 20,24,28,32,36. So value should be 0x54, 0x05. 24 0x8C 0x87 taa is .468ns * CAS-36 which results in byte 24 being 0x87 as per datasheet. 123 0x00 0xE5 Fine offset for taa. Expected value is 0xE5 as per datasheet. 124 0x7F 0x00 Fine offset for tckMax. Expected value is 0x00 as per datasheet. 125 0xE1 0xE0 Fine offset for tckMin. As per datasheet tckMin is 0.468ns. So, this comes out to be 0xE0.

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:
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
andmake 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:
