System76 yayamba kutumiza CoreBoot pamapulatifomu a AMD Ryzen

Jeremy Soller, woyambitsa makina ogwiritsira ntchito a Redox olembedwa m'chinenero cha Rust, ali ndi udindo wa Engineering Manager ku System76, adalengeza za chiyambi cha porting KoreBoot pa laputopu ndi malo ogwirira ntchito otumizidwa ndi chipsets za AMD Matisse (Ryzen 3000) ndi Renoir (Ryzen 4000) kutengera microarchitecture ya Zen 2. Kuti akwaniritse ntchitoyi, kampani ya AMD pansi pa mgwirizano wosawulutsa (NDA) kuperekedwa opanga kuchokera ku System76 zolemba zofunika, komanso ma code a zigawo zothandizira nsanja (PSP) ndi kuyambitsa kwa chip (AGESA).

Pakadali pano, CoreBoot ali nayo kale mothandizidwa ndi more 20 ma boardards otengera tchipisi ta AMD, kuphatikiza AMD Padmelon, AMD Dinar, AMD Rumba, AMD Gardenia, AMD Stoney Ridge, MSI MS-7721, Lenovo G505S ndi ASUS F2A85-M. Mu 2011, AMD idatsegula gwero la library AGESA (AMD Generic Encapsulated Software Architecture), yomwe imaphatikizapo njira zoyambira ma processor cores, kukumbukira ndi wowongolera HyperTransport. AGESA idakonzedwa kuti ipangidwe ngati gawo la CoreBoot, koma mu 2014 izi zidachitika adakulungidwa ndipo AMD idabwereranso kusindikiza zolemba za binary za AGESA zokha.

Tikumbukire kuti kampani ya System76 imagwira ntchito yopanga ma laputopu, ma PC ndi maseva omwe amaperekedwa ndi Linux, ndikupanga firmware yotseguka pazogulitsa zake. System76 Open Firmware, kutengera Coreboot, EDK2 ndi mapulogalamu ena akomweko.
