+### Intel Xeon Scalable Processor support is now considered mature + +Intel Xeon Scalable Processor (Xeon-SP) family [1] is designed +primarily to serve the needs of the server market. + +coreboot support for Xeon-SP is in src/soc/intel/xeon_sp directory. +This release has support for SkyLake-SP (SKX-SP) which is the 2nd +generation, and for CooperLake-SP (CPX-SP) which is the 3rd generation +or the latest generation [2] on market. + +With this release, the codebase for multiple generations of Xeon-SP +were unified and optimized: +* SKX-SP SoC code is used in OCP TiogaPass mainboard [3]. Support for +this board is in Proof Of Concept Status. +* CPX-SP SoC code is used in OCP DeltaLake mainboard. Support for +this board is in DVT (Design Validation Test) exit equivalent status. +Features supported, (performance/stability) test scopes, known issues, +features gaps are described in [4]. + ### Add significant changes here + +[1] https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/processors/xeon/sca... +[2] https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/docs/processors/xeon/3rd-ge... +[3] ../mainboard/ocp/tiogapass.md +[4] ../mainboard/ocp/deltalake.md
