### Debugging
#### UART0 (CN16)
This connector is located on the **bottom** side (see [here][overview_bottom_link]).
![][header_cn16]
#### UART1 (GPIO header)
The GPIO header is located on the **bottom** side (see [here][overview_bottom_link]).

## Building and flashing coreboot
### Using the SPI header
The SPI header is located on the **bottom** side (see [here][overview_bottom_link]).
![][header_cn22]
### Preperations
In order to build coreboot, it's neccessary to extract some files from the vendor firmware. Make sure that you have a fully working dump.
```bash
[upsquared]$ ls
firmware_vendor.rom
```
```bash
[upsquared]$ mkdir extracted && cd extracted
[extracted]$ ifdtool -x ../firmware_vendor.rom
File ../firmware_vendor.rom is 16777216 bytes
Peculiar firmware descriptor, assuming Ibex Peak compatibility.
Flash Region 0 (Flash Descriptor): 00000000 - 00000fff
Flash Region 1 (BIOS): 00001000 - 00efefff
Flash Region 2 (Intel ME): 07fff000 - 00000fff (unused)
Flash Region 3 (GbE): 07fff000 - 00000fff (unused)
Flash Region 4 (Platform Data): 07fff000 - 00000fff (unused)
Flash Region 5 (Reserved): 00eff000 - 00ffefff
Flash Region 6 (Reserved): 07fff000 - 00000fff (unused)
Flash Region 7 (Reserved): 07fff000 - 00000fff (unused)
Flash Region 8 (EC): 07fff000 - 00000fff (unused)
```
```bash
flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin
flashregion_1_bios.bin
flashregion_5_reserved.bin
```
### Clean up
```bash
[coreboot]$ make distclean
```
### Configuring
```bash
[coreboot]$ touch .config
[coreboot]$ ./util/scripts/config --enable VENDOR_UP
[coreboot]$ ./util/scripts/config --enable BOARD_UP_SQUARED
[coreboot]$ ./util/scripts/config --enable NEED_IFWI
[coreboot]$ ./util/scripts/config --enable HAVE_IFD_BIN
[coreboot]$ ./util/scripts/config --set-str IFWI_FILE_NAME "<flashregion_1_bios.bin>"
[coreboot]$ ./util/scripts/config --set-str IFD_BIN_PATH "<flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin>"
[coreboot]$ make olddefconfig
```
### Building
```bash
[coreboot]$ make
```
Now you should have a working and ready to use coreboot build at `build/coreboot.rom`.
### Flashing
```bash
[coreboot]$ flashrom -p <your_programmer> -w build/coreboot.rom
```
## Board status
### Working
- bootblock, romstage, ramstage
- Serial console UART0, UART1
- SPI flash console
- iGPU init with libgfxinit
- LAN1, LAN2
- USB2, USB3
- HDMI, DisplayPort
- eMMC
- flashing with flashrom externally
### Work in progress
- Documentation
- ACPI
### Not working / Known issues
- Generally SeaBIOS works, but it can't find the CBFS region and therefore it can't load seavgabios. This is because of changes at the Apollolake platform.
### Untested
- GPIO pin header
- 60 pin EXHAT
- Camera interface
- MIPI-CSI2 2-lane (2MP)
- MIPI-CSI2 4-lane (8MP)
- SATA3
- USB3 OTG
- embedded DisplayPort
- M.2 slot
- mini PCIe
- flashing with flashrom internally using Linux
