Patchset:
Well, maybe there's a chance that somebody in possession of SA BIOS Spec will help us documenting this... :)
Sorry if I was too rude here. I didn't mean to bail out, just
lost track of these patches at some point.
It's not that easy. In my copy of the BIOS Spec (maybe the latest
maybe not, Intel doesn't provide access to these docs anymore) it
says exactly what the code currently does. And that's why the code
does it, it was written with the spec at hand.
Now we have documentation of which we don't know if it's the latest
and we have refcode of which we don't know if it's the latest and
we don't know if Intel updated the documentation at all after the
last code changes. The only thing we know is that the code does
exactly what was documented. So I say, if we want to change the
code, we should document that better. If we don't, somebody might
patch the code back to the old state, because that's what was
documented.
Documentation starts with the commit message. Currently it says
nothing about what was tested.
