System76 Ported CoreBoot ukuya kwi-AMD Ryzen Platform

UJeremy Soller, uMseki weNkqubo yokuSebenza yeRedox esekwe kwiRust kunye noMphathi wezobuNjineli kwiSystem76, kwaziswa malunga nokuqala kokuhambisa I-CoreBoot kwiilaptops nakwiindawo zokusebenzela ezithunyelwe ngeechipset ze-AMD UMatisse (Ryzen 3000) kunye Renoir (i-Ryzen 4000) esekelwe kwi-microarchitecture yeZen 2. Ukuphumeza iprojekthi, i-AMD phantsi kwesivumelwano sokungabhengezi (NDA) unikelwe abaphuhlisi ukusuka kwi-System76 amaxwebhu ayimfuneko, kunye nenkxaso yeqonga (PSP) kunye nokuqaliswa kwe-chip (AGESA) ikhowudi yecandelo.

Ngoku sele ikwiCoreBoot ixhaswe ngu 20 ngaphezulu iibhodi zomama ezisekelwe kwi-chips ze-AMD, kuquka i-AMD Padmelon, i-AMD Dinar, i-AMD Rumba, i-AMD Gardenia, i-AMD Stoney Ridge, i-MSI MS-7721, i-Lenovo G505S kunye ne-ASUS F2A85-M. Ngo-2011, i-AMD yavula ikhowudi yemvelaphi yethala leencwadi I-AGESA (I-AMD Generic Encapsulated Software Architecture), ebandakanya iinkqubo zokuqalisa ii-processor cores, imemori, kunye nomlawuli we-HyperTransport. I-AGESA yayicetywe ukuba iphuhliswe njengenxalenye yeCoreBoot, kodwa ngo-2014 eli nyathelo lali isongiwe kwaye i-AMD ibuyele ekupapasheni i-AGESA yokubini yokwakha kuphela.

Khumbula ukuba i-System76 igxile kwimveliso yeelaptops, iiPC kunye neeseva ezibonelelwa ngeLinux, kwaye iphuhlisa i-firmware evulekileyo yeemveliso zayo. System76 Vula iFirmware, esekwe kwiCoreboot, EDK2, kunye nezinye izicelo zomthonyama.
