First commercially available coreboot for Intel Xeon-SP

[Jonathan Zhang]

Hi,

We now have the first commercially available coreboot solution for
servers based on Intel Xeon-SP processor (specifically CooperLake
Scalable Processor).

WW OCP DeltaLake server (with OSF being part of it) was OCP accepted;
Also the server and its OSF solution are on market, backed by WW and
9E partnership.

OCP blog: https://www.opencompute.org/blog/open-system-firmware-for-ocp-server-deltala...

WW PR: https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/wiwynn-successfully-implemented-ope...

I look forward to a positive loop between coreboot engineering as open
source firmware and its commercial success! Go coreboot for a fair
server market share.

Jonathan

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing, and keep up the great work!

These are great news. (As always a nit: Cooper Lake-SP ;-))

Finger’s crossed.

For completeness, it’d be awesome if you uploaded the logs to the board 
status repository. In the coreboot repository, you built the image from, 
run `util/board_status/board_status.sh -u`.

Kind regards,

Paul
