## Current Agenda Items

### [Benjamin] Add support for sharing SMM with the payload
  * To support UEFI secure boot effectively, we need to perform the verify and write steps of its
variables together, in SMM. Consequently, we propose a solution where coreboot ‘owns’ SMM
(initialises and installs all its regular SMI handlers), and the payload is permitted to install
its own SMI handlers within a dedicated SMRAM region that coreboot will call into (and return from)
for payload-specific use-cases. While this was developed for EDK2, to support secure boot, note
that it’s not UEFI-specific, and contains nothing specific to secure boot. This is a superior
solution to one we proposed in 2023, called “Add support for calling SMM payloads.”
