Hi colleagues,
I am glad to announce that coreboot for Intel Xeon server processor has reached a major milestone: it is ready for the general development communities to have fun with. The FSP/coreboot/LinuxBoot stack for OCP (Open Compute Project) DeltaLake server was accepted by OCP OSF (Open System Firmware) project, and is made public at https://github.com/opencomputeproject/OpenSystemFirmware. For details, please check out https://doc.coreboot.org/mainboard/ocp/deltalake.html. Also the MAINTAINERS file was updated. If you have any question/suggestion, please reach out to the DeltaLake server and/or xeon-sp soc maintainers. Some additional notes: * The build system to build coreboot, Linux kernel, u-root, and to stitch the final image, is an open source project: https://github.com/facebookincubator/osf-builder * All the necessary Intel binary blobs are available with Intel redistributable licenses. DeltaLake server will be a great vehicle for engineering projects such as: * Server host firmware feature development. * Development for processor features that show up in server first, such as split IIO. If you need access to DeltaLake server, please reach out to the maintainers. I am also excited that 9 Elements volunteered to maintain the OSF DeltaLake code base, including coreboot. Going forward 9 Elements will continue to improve the code base, rebase to coreboot upstream tip, run tests and make periodic releases. We look forward to commercial success as well. All of these would not happen without coreboot community’s help, you guys rock! PS. Facebook team is looking for help. If you are interested, please check out the coreboot job board https://www.coreboot.org/jobs.html Thank you, Jonathan
