Just noticed that someone included i.e. some Purism Librem devices to a " Recently tested mainboards: " section - but, when I check https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/board-status.git/log/purism , the latest board status for Purism happened even before 4.9 ! And without a recent enough _public_ "board status" report - containing the important info about your build and its' complete configuration - I don't think we could include them to a "recently tested" list, since the other users won't have a chance to reproduce your build by using your configuration. Same question regarding some other of these additions, so removing them from a " Recently tested mainboards: " list, but of course they could be re-added if someone will submit a board_status reports from them.
We would like to encourage the board status reporting, and relying on the word of users ( "I tested X board and it worked" ) would not help us to collect the known good configs at our coreboot/board_status repository.
To submit a board status report for your board, please run a ./coreboot/util/board_status/board_status.sh script on it.

If the upstream edk2 is so bad - have you tried to upstream your set of patches? It is good that your personal fork/repo is stable, but inevitably it will always lag behind the upstream, not benefiting from some new features and bugfixes. Same reason why I didn't want to fork a coreboot despite having a big set of unofficial patches , instead trying to upstream them when I have some free time.

there is no "stable" branch for upstream edk2 though. Previously, coreboot used an arbitrary commit as stable, and applied ~7 patches on top if it to make it functional. Even the UDK201x branches don't boot without patches

Tianocore master branch build from edk2 will break, but that had been quite some time. Stable branch is working fine though.

Also, regarding the significant changes: " ### Tianocore UEFI integrated as payload " . I hope it doesn't mean that Tianocore will become the default payload, since there are ideological/technical reasons against this ( I think there's a significant overlap between the groups of people who love / interested in coreboot and hate UEFI )
the change could be reworded better I think: instead of the stable tag for Tianocore being pulled from the upstream edk2 github repo and a series of patches applied, it's now pulled directly from my fork/repo, which is actually functional on most (x86_64) devices. A few tweaks (like customizable boot splash) were added as well.
there is no change to the default payload, only to the defaults for Tianocore _______________________________________________ coreboot mailing list -- coreboot@coreboot.org To unsubscribe send an email to coreboot-leave@coreboot.org
