FOSDEM Hardware Enablement Devroom
by Paul Kocialkowski 04 Dec '18

04 Dec '18

A Hardware Enablement devroom will be taking place at FOSDEM this year, on Sunday 10 December 2017. This newly-created devroom is the result of 3 proposals that were merged together. It is co-organized by several individuals. The devroom covers all aspects related to hardware enablement and support with free software, including aspects related to boot software, firmwares, drivers and userspace tools and adaptation. Proposals for talks related to these topics are welcome and can be submitted until Sunday 26 November 2017 via the pentabarf interface. Short talks are encouraged over longer ones in order to cover a wide range of topics. The announcement for the devroom, that contains all the useful information, was published at: https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2017-October/002649.html Cheers and see you at FOSDEM! -- Paul Kocialkowski, developer of free digital technology and hardware support Website: https://www.paulk.fr/ Coding blog: https://code.paulk.fr/ Git repositories: https://git.paulk.fr/ https://git.code.paulk.fr/

Interested in offering motherboards for autotest
by Jeremy Banks 20 Jan '18

20 Jan '18

Hello, I have some older motherboards I'd like to offer as QA targets for autotest as described in the Testing section of Development Guidelines on the wiki.[1] They are older boards, ranging from Slot 1 to Socket AM3. Would the coreboot team have any interest in these, or are they too obsolete to serve as QA targets? Assuming there is interest, what is required for an autotest setup? The wiki says "a permanent connection to the net, a host system and some special circuitry," are required. How permanent of a connection is required? Is something like a cable or DSL line in the US sufficient, or is something closer to leased space at a datacenter facility needed? Are there any particular requirements of a host system that necessitate a particularly powerful system, or would a small single-board system like a Raspberry Pi suffice? Regarding the special circuitry: I assume this includes equipment for flashing the ROM chip on the motherboard under test, a means of controlling at least the motherboard's power switch and reset line, and something to monitor output from the board so to verify it did boot successfully (serial port?). Is this roughly accurate? Are there other bits of the special circuitry that I am missing, or specific brands/models of tools required to implement the special circuitry? Regards, Jeremy Banks 1. https://www.coreboot.org/Development_Guidelines#Testing

EARLY_CBMEM_INIT for Geode LX platforms
by Michal Zygowski 08 Jan '18

08 Jan '18

Hello Everyone, As a result of incoming 4.7 release many boards are going to be deprecated. We would like to support alix platforms which are based on Geode LX and yet not EARLY_CBMEM_INIT enabled. We have all hardware at hand and would gladly bring these platforms up to current standards. We saw that Kyösti Mälkki did a lot of good work for other AMD platforms and even offered to help with implementing EARLY_CBMEM_INIT on Geode. Unfortunately the thread died: https://www.mail-archive.com/coreboot@coreboot.org/msg50205.html Could You give us any tips where and how to start? AFAIK it is about calculating the top of RAM and recovering the cbmem on S3 resume (am I wrong?). I have already tried to implement it, but when trying to get timestamps with cbmem, it complains that it could not find timestamp table (did not even get error with cpufreq missing as this module occurs to be a problem on Geode). Has anybody maybe done some work yet? Best Regards, --- Michał Żygowski https://3mdeb.com | @3mdeb_com

Disabling ME >= 6.0 < 11 via the AltMeDisable bit
by Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli 31 Dec '17

31 Dec '17

Hi, As I understand it: - For ME < 6.0, the ME firmware can be removed totally, and still have a functional computer. - For ME >= 6.0 (Nehalem) to ME < 11 (Broadwell), the All ME firmware can't be totally removed: the BUP module is required to have a functional computer. For such Firmware/Hardware versions the BUP does "Bringup (hardware initialization/configuration)"[1] - For ME 11, the following modules are required to have a functional computer: RBE, BUP, kernel and syslib. For such generation, setting the HAP bit only tells the firmware not to load extra code (At that point the kernel is already loaded). I've some questions regarding the above: - Is there more details than "Bringup (hardware initialization/configuration)" for what the BUP partition does for the ME >= 6.0 and < 11. - With the ME >= 6.0 and < 11, what does the AltMeDisable bit really do? Do we have some insights that tend to show that the execution is stopped, or not stopped? References: ----------- [1]https://recon.cx/2014/slides/Recon%202014%20Skochinsky.pdf Denis.

Re: [coreboot] How to properly conform with GPLv2 for Coreboot and SeaBIOS on an embedded system

Our customers will never load their own payload. Our systems always boot to our own OS, which manages the measurement hardware and data processing side of the customer application. Our customers send relatively simple scripts to our systems that tell them how to manage the real-time, control, and signal processing portions of the application, while they typically have a relatively complex application-specific human interface application that runs on the host OS, typically operating under Windows, but sometimes operating under Linux (these few customers operating under Linux, obviously, will not have any trouble with GPL). Most customers want our system to “just work”. They send our system a PID() command, say, and it runs a PID loop for them until they tell it to stop. They do not dig down into the boot process or load a different OS. > coreboot makes things cost effective because we are all working together on the platform support. > Another good reason for not reinventing the wheel again :) > Even Siemens uses coreboot + SeaBIOS -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tq4xSipCWEU > without having the "fear" of licensing issues. Sure they are not selling it to end users. On a quick look at the Siemens website for this product, this definitely looks like a good example of a product that matches what we do quite well, though I suspect they aim at much bigger customers than we do. With a few minutes spent looking, it is not at all clear to me how Siemens handles their GPL responsibility and whether they attempt to provide compliance for their customers or not. > If you want to make it easy for them. Upstream open source as much as possible. > If it is already there people will stop asking your customers for the source code! > Also if they use a custom payload without GPL code they don't need to open source it! We will definitely push any changes we make back to Coreboot or SeaBIOS to accept or reject. Best Regards, Ian

I am guessing that the boot firmware isn't considered to be part of the high-value IP of the product - that is presumably in your OS. No. We have made no changes. At the moment we do not even know how to build the required modules for the system. Personally, I would rather we did not have to know how to do a build, but I think we will need to so that we can validate that the source code matches the binary we distribute. Even once we do work out how to do a build, I very much doubt we will make any changes at all. If we do change anything in coreboot or SeaBIOS – or any other GPL licensed project for that matter, we will definitely release our changes back to the relevant project to accept or reject. Ø Your idea about using the "About" tab to inform the user about the licenses and where to find the code is good. It should cover your company even if the customer never reads it. If this is correct, and an About tab with all the relevant information about coreboot and SeaBIOS meets our – and our customer’s – licensing responsibility, then we clearly can do something that will work well for our purposes.

Re: [coreboot] How to properly conform with GPLv2 for Coreboot and SeaBIOS on an embedded system
by David Hendricks 31 Dec '17

31 Dec '17

Hi Ian, Did you actually need to change coreboot or SeaBIOS? If so, how extensive were the changes? I am guessing that the boot firmware isn't considered to be part of the high-value IP of the product - that is presumably in your OS. If you can publish the coreboot and SeaBIOS code on your website (it could be a zip file or something) then things should be reasonably simple. Even better would be to add the mainboard support to upstream coreboot or fork upstream coreboot on github and then add your patches on top. Then downstream customers can then easily download the code and, if needed, modify and commit their patches to the same codebase as to be in compliance in the same manner as you. Your idea about using the "About" tab to inform the user about the licenses and where to find the code is good. It should cover your company even if the customer never reads it. You shouldn't need a clickthrough license or anything (gnu.org has a FAQ that covers that topic: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0-faq.en.html). Also, the "conspicuous" requirement should already be met with the license information that exists in the header of each source code file and/or a LICENSE or COPYING file. As Peter mentioned that is exactly how the requirement is met for large companies who work with open source software. Like you say, the goal here should be to make it so that downstream customers don't need to think about this stuff. The nice thing is that if you act consistently with the spirit of the open-source licenses then this should all be simple for them and for your company as well, and you get to spend more time engineering and collaborating and less time worrying.

Re: [coreboot] G505s with Coreboot unable to run any version of Qubes
by Emil Novik 30 Dec '17

30 Dec '17

Thanks ! With the help of Awokd I managed to boot each version by using "xen-pciback.hide=(PCI address of the discrete GPU)" and the small grub fix for 3.2. I was planning on using 4rc3 but the VM setup on first boot always fails to create sys-net because of a libxenlight error. I can still start my session but no internet access, same error each time I try to start sys-net and no VM manager to be found. So I decided to use 3.2 and it works like a charm, just needs some more ram and all will be perfect :) --- Emil Novik -------- Original Message -------- On Dec 30, 2017, 21:44, Ivan Ivanov wrote: > Hi Emil, thank you very much for your report. > Regarding Qubes 3.2 : at the Qubes HCL list I wrote: > > "after Qubes R3.2 installation it cant boot - cant reach GRUB Boot Menu > because MBR (or GRUB) is corrupted.
