Is anyone working on getting AGESA working in coreboot again? Back when we were deciding on a firmware solution for our platform, the plan for LinuxBIOS AGESA support was a very good advantage for coreboot. After seeing the path for AGESA support languish for a few months, as well as Opteron support in general, we decided to use AMI instead (for various other reasons too). With AMI, every month or so, we get new AGESA drop, plop it in our build, and get various errata fixes, HT support, Barcelona fixes, etc.
Is there any plan for this?
You need to read Marc's slides from the summit. Long story short, yes.
