Description

Adding google gnawty boards.
This board is very similiar to rambi, the only difference known is the ram configuration.

http://review.coreboot.org/#/c/12500
https://www.coreboot.org/Board:acer/cb3-111

SeaBIOS hangs with message:
Press F12 ...

but pressing f12 does nothing.

Booting ELF payload with openwrt fails because e820 isn't properly passed.

Using Linux Payload + x64 kernel openwrt boots up.

I can see

[    0.000000] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x408
[    0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x00] lapic_id[0x00] enabled)
[    0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x01] lapic_id[0x02] enabled)
[    0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x02] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])
[    0.000000] I/O APIC 0xfec00000 registers return all ones, skipping!

But coreboot detects 

APIC: 00: enabled 1
APIC: 02: enabled 1

APIC: 00 (Intel BayTrail SoC)
APIC: 02 (unknown)

I guess the second should not be enabled. but why is linux only finds this one ONLY ?

the second APIC 02 looks good, because it's the second processor.

Missing:

  • sdcard as file for SeaBIOS
  • migrate gnawty into rambi
  • pci irq routing
  • test if seabios can work with irq routing

SeaBios is booting without hardware irqs.
I'm waiting for a board to hack on.
