-Xeon Scalable processor coreboot Community Preview Guide
+Xeon Scalable Processor coreboot Community Preview Guide
================================================
## Background
-Sapphire Rapids coreboot was already merged into coreboot mainline.
-Granite Rapids coreboot upstreaming is coming.
+Xeon 6 basic boot supports are initially upstreamed at
+https://review.coreboot.org/q/topic:%22Xeon6-Basic-Boot%22.
-For Granite Rapids coreboot, we are going to perform a phased
-upstreaming strategy according to the maturity of the code. A community
-preview branch is opensource at:
-https://review.coreboot.org/plugins/gitiles/intel-dev-pub/.
+Full feature supports are previewed at
+https://review.coreboot.org/admin/repos/intel-dev-pub,general
-The community preview branch initially contains codes on legacy feature
-enabling and matured patch set for platform support. More platform
-support code will come with the platform development. The subsequent
-upstreaming work will be based on this branch. It provides 2 board
-targets,
+The supported platform status are as below,
-1. Avenue City CRB (Granite Rapids-AP)
-2. Beechnut City CRB (Granite Rapids-SP)
+1. Beechnut City CRB (Sierra Forest-SP)
-The above targets can pass build with Granite Rapids n-1 FSP headers,
-which is a set of stub FSP headers used for compilation sanity check.
+- Buildable with n-1 FSP headers
+
+- Bootable with real FSP headers/binaries

-## About Granite Rapids n-1 FSP Headers
+## About Granite Rapids n-1 FSP headers
This is a set of stub FSP headers for Granite Rapids server, which will
be forward compatible with the formal Granite Rapids FSP headers which
will be opensource at a later stage. For the n-1 FSP headers, there are
no corresponding n-1 FSP binaries. To pass build, users need to use stub
binaries which could be generated in arbitrary ways. Granite Rapids n-1
-FSP headers are at: `src/vendorcode/intel/fsp/fsp2_0/graniterapids_n-1`.
+FSP headers are at: `src/vendorcode/intel/fsp/fsp2_0/graniterapids`.
+
+## About Granite Rapids real FSP headers
-For the formal Granite Rapids FSP headers and binaries, they will be
-published at in
-https://github.com/coreboot/coreboot/tree/main/src/vendorcode/intel/fsp/fsp2_0
-(headers only) and https://github.com/intel/FSP (headers and binaries)
-at a later stage. \ No newline at end of file
+For the real Granite Rapids FSP headers and binaries, please contact
+intel business interface to obtain. Then please update
+configs/builder/config.intel.crb.avc and configs/builder/config.intel.crb.bnc
+to apply.
