We’re preparing for the coreboot 4.3 release, expected to happen sometime in the next week, so there has been a lot of activity surrounding Intel’s Skylake chips, both in the mainboards and SOC directories. The Skylake and braswell platforms are finally being build-tested by jenkins, which will help keep the platforms working.
The changes in cbfstool are continuing to roll in, although this should be wrapping up before long as the merger of cbfs with FMAP is completed.
The effort to standardize coreboot’s license headers across all files is just starting, and will be going on for a few weeks as we verify that all source files have the correct headers. We’ve added and improved the lint checkers for these so expect failures from jenkins if files with non-compliant headers are pushed.
A fair amount of work was done in the build system in the past couple of weeks. This removed the warnings about cross compilers not existing unless that architecture is currently being built, fixed some dependency issues, and fixed several other minor issues. A make target to check the versions of the coreboot toolchain was also added.
We had a slight toolchain change, going to MPFR version 3.1.3 to fix some issues seen on the upcoming Power8 processor.
Additional changes added NetBSD support for various utilities, and update the intel/gm45 and intel/pineview northbridges.
