These are actually reasonable questions. I am wondering if, as you get each answer, you can document it for others who have the same questions. ron On Sun, Mar 6, 2016 at 10:47 AM daoud yessine <yessine.daoud.92(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi > > how we can get the timestamp from coreboot ? > > what's the name of table in the source code in which the timestamps are > saved ? > What is the configuration needed to obtain the timestamp table ? > > thanks > ᐧ > -- > coreboot mailing list: coreboot(a)coreboot.org > https://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot

Respected Sir, I am a MS CS scholar of Virtual University of Pakistan, I want to participate in GSoC 2016 for coreboot. Data Science, Networks, Information security, digital forensics and ethical hacking are my core areas of interest. Currently, I am working on a research project on live forensics of GPU and volatile memories like RAMs and Caches. I am looking forward your guidance to start my contribution for coreboot, thanks in anticipation. Regards Tahir Ramzan

Even if we're not an official upstream of memtest86, keeping it useful and enhancing it should definitely be on our radar. Stefan

I'm all for a sane hosting location of memtest86+. I marked all patches that I'm current using in my personal tree with 'code-review+2' in gerrit. I've been sitting on Baytrail support patches. If you are OK with this being an active branch, I can send those patches along.

coreboot convention
by Martin Roth March 1, 2016

March 1, 2016

Greetings: We are going to hold a 4 day coreboot convention in San Francisco, CA, Monday June 13 - Thursday June 16. Google has agreed to host two very nice conference rooms for those 4 days and we are also working to get a block of rooms in a nearby hotel for a reasonable rate. We plan for two days of talks structured talks, followed by two days of informal discussion and classes. We will have the smaller room open for hacking all four days. We'll provide flashing equipment and other useful tools; let us know what you need. There will be a fee for this convention - $250 for corporate employees and $100 for students or individual contributors. If this is an issue, please let us know on the form and we'll work with you on a fee waiver. We have set up an outing on Tuesday night to the Long Now Foundation for the first 40 paid registrations (Long Now has space limits) and we're working on a visit to a local Hackerspace. Whether you are part of the Open Source community, working for a silicon vendor supporting coreboot already, or are just interested in getting some hands on experience, our goal is to make this an interesting and valuable meeting for all of us. You are welcome to present talk proposals and subject areas you think we should cover. We will be having a talk on RISC-V from Andrew Waterman of SiFive, classes by senior members of the community, and discussions on future directions. Please indicate your interest via this form: http://goo.gl/forms/f8uqHHFL2S. Additional information is available on the coreboot wiki: https://www.coreboot.org/Coreboot_conference_San_Francisco_2016 Early registration closes May 1. We will send payment options when we receive your registration. We hope to see you there. Thanks Ron, Stefan, and Martin
