Hi
It has been a few years since coreboot (or flashrom) applied for Google Summer Of Code. In 2019 the applications for organizations open on january 2019 and student applications on March 25.
I think it would be great if the coreboot project could apply in 2019, as doing so has been very valuable for the project in the past.
I don't really know the full set of requirements and procedures, but I think it could be worthwhile to start thinking about project ideas.
A few ideas were already suggested on IRC on freenode #coreboot: - 64bit x86 ramstage (hard) - documented microcode update methods and write a tool that generates a webpage which microcodes are included in coreboot (easy) - nvidea optimus support (medium) - QEMU power9 support / initial openpower support (hard I guess?) - Rework device resource allocation to support 64bit BAR (relatively hard)
Any ideas or suggestions?
Kind regards
Arthur Heymans
