Hi folks!

We're planning to update the coreboot reference toolchain very soon now, right after the coreboot 4.4 release which will roughly happen at the end of this month.

We have fixed a few issues with the new toolchain already, and I am building and running coreboot images with the new toolchain daily, but we need more testing from all of you and for all of your coreboot systems. So please: Build the new toolchain and build and run coreboot images with it during the next week!

The patch for updating the toolchain is here:
https://review.coreboot.org/#/c/14227/

How to build the new toolchain
$ cd coreboot/
$ git fetch https://review.coreboot.org/coreboot
refs/changes/27/14227/11 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD $ rm -r util/crossgcc/xgcc $ make crossgcc CPUS=4 # replace with your number of CPU cores <wait for a while, have lunch or coffee> $ rm .xcompile
