I don't think as an open-source project we can really set hard expectations of what a contributor does after their patch is landed, regardless of whether it's an individual or a company. We don't make our contributors sign contracts, after all. Any work on coreboot by anyone is best effort, and

I would suggest the same industry standard maintenance period that would normally apply to a commercial, closed source product. For instance, consumer hardware might only receive a year or two of support from initial release, but an embedded system might be more typically see 3-5 years or

Thanks Peter, Is there a time limit that you think is appropriate to request maintenance for? Obviously it's not reasonable to request that they maintain it forever, but is 2 years after the initial push reasonable? 3 years? What level of maintenance would be expected? Would we just

Hello Nico, thank! If I understand correctly, when setting up a FSP with memory down, FSP does not read the SPD, but waits for the setting as a function parameter. If I set memory as DIMM in the FSP, then the FSP will read the SPD from the specified SMBUS address (A0, A2). I'm right?

Thanks. But it works if the memory down on board and board not have chip SPD. However, if the board has a SPD, this code does not work. From: Ranga Rao Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2019 12:54 PM To: Alexey Borovikov ; coreboot@coreboot.org Subject: RE: [coreboot] FSP 1.0: How to configure soldered

Hi Alexey, For memory down configuration ensure below are enabled/filled in FSP When a DIMM is having its SPD, the smbus reads the SPD and configures the DIMM channels For Memory down below changes are expected 1. UpdData->MemoryDownEnable is enabled 2) MEMORY_DOWN_DATA

There are two boards Intel Atom E3825 with soldered memory. One board with spd, the other without spd. For a board where there is no spd, after configure the correct memory settings in the fsp, I get a working memory controller. For a board with spd, the fsp configurator does not allow to
