[coreboot] Re: Extended IvyBridge CPU configuration

[Evgeny Zinoviev via coreboot]

Hi.

As for HT, there's this patch: 
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/29669 but it needs polishing 
and testing. Last time I touched it, it worked good (or so it seemed to 
me) on X220. If you have an interest and wish help to test, we could 
finish it.


(We also need to decide, whether to leave it as a CMOS option or turn 
into a Kconfig option.)

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for an option to configure my Intel IvyBridge CPU (enable 
/ disable Hyperthreading, TurboBoost, set configurable TDP level etc.) 
using coreboot / nvramcui. My board is a Lenovo Thinkpad T430. So far, 
"only virtualization" is configurable and can not be enabled / 
disabled "in flight" but requires a rebuild of coreboot.


Is anyone currently working on something similar?

Is anything planned in that regard?

Kind regards

Dear coreboot community,
We will have an assembly at the 36C3 congress in Leipzig, Germany taking place
from 27th Dec to 30th Dec in 2019.

We will have 30 seats to hack on open source firmware.

Here are more details about the workshops:

* 27th Dec 3pm & 28th Dec 4pm & 29th Dec 3pm
* Please team up in pairs of two
* Group capacity limit is 6 to 8 persons, depending on space
* Intended for newcomers only
* Duration is about 2:00h
* Topics:
 ** Build your toolchain
 ** Compile coreboot for qemu
 ** What are so called payloads?
 ** coreboot on real hardware

Looking forward to seeing you there to chat about open source firmware
or related projects, the Open Source Firmware Conference (OSFC) or
how to flash firmware in general.

You can find the assembly at "Chaos West" cluster.

Kind Regards,
Patrick Rudolph
