Hi All,

We are able to achieve the memory initialization time reduction. Now we have 
achieved the boot time as 5sec until the Postcode 0xf8 (entry into Elf boot).

We have reduced the unwanted codes. We would like to reduce the boot time to 
less than 2sec.

Could anyone please tell what can be done further ?

Thanks,
Antony

I have never seen this path used in coreboot. This line above is saying CSE is 
responsible for saving and retrieving training data. In coreboot we use the 
main processor to save and restore. I suggest reading over the UPD parameters 
and ensure they match with our typical use cases. BCT tool enabling 'training 
data save' sounds like it's enabling CSE path.
