hi folks i'm working for path intelligence and we have a requirement
to use serial bios boot, on a motherboard which has an AMI standard
BIOS. the motherboard is being done by a new (independent) team
within ASRock who are using higher-quality components, longer lifetime
parts, and they're
Hi, I am developing coreboot on DMP/Vortex86EX board. I found recent
updated coreboot
source code made it boots slower on my board. That is because:
From commit c6b44162f5cccd72e9b4d9dbf071911249971846, src/lib/cbfs_core.c uses
memmove instead of memcpy to load uncompressed ramstage. memmove
It seems to me you could improve our memmove?
Also, if we want to define another Kconfig variable this is pretty easy to fix.

Hi Luke,
You may be in luck -- That chipset is similar to a couple others which are
already supported for the Stumpy and Lumpy ChromeOS products.
Of course, the devils are always in the details and this being an
Intel-based product will likely require proprietary bits, so there might be
other

There is CONFIG_CPU_DMP_VORTEX86EX which might be useful.
Maybe Andrew can try something like
It wouldn't be terrible to have a generally better memmove implementation
either.

I disagree.
Maybe Andrew can try something like this:
..
+ifeq ($(CONFIG_CPU_DMP_VORTEX86EX),y)
+# Old memmove implementation from Linux always use REP MOVSL

+ramstage-y

Funny you should mention Stumpy and Lumpy since the source of firmware
one can download
