[coreboot] VT-d on samus proposal draft

2016-03-23 Thread Huimin Zhang
I have my first draft for my GSoC proposal ready. I am quite anxious for a
bit of feedback, as I have yet to receive any so far. The link is below.

Everything should be upstreamed, yes. However there isn't any
automated testing for upstream on Chromebook devices at this time, so
things may break down the road.

It's hard to say what exactly goes wrong with your setup. I can test
(since I have a samus with servo header around), but in general, the
first requirement to debug coreboot issues is to grab its console
somehow.

 I made my proposal draft private. As for now I shared it with Ron
 Minnich and Martin Roth. If you part of a GSoC commission, I'll add you too
 (head to the doc link).

 Unfortunately, I haven't submitted any patch yet. Please, assign me to
 a task.

you need to be patient. All the reviewers have day jobs and there is a lot
of work in all this.

There's no advantage to you or your proposal in complaining about the
reviewers, I think.

Actually, this seems a pretty good proposal in its current state, but not
my one comment.

coolstar's ROM turns out to be working for samus with some minor issues, so
I will be studying his patches to see what the regressions are.

Thanks for your comments on my proposal by the way,
