[coreboot] RFC: Deprecating VBOOT_VBNV_CMOS

2022-07-18 Thread Yu-Ping Wu via coreboot
Hi, There's an ongoing effort to expand vboot nvdata (nvstorage) from 16 to 64 bytes [issue ]. To reduce unnecessary complexity of our firmware code accessing nvdata, we'd like to drop 16-byte nvdata support from the firmware codebase (crossystem s

Hi there Nico, Thank you for your great summary of research, I'm going to CC it to a coreboot mailing list just in case someone wants to add more findings... I'm not aware of any people currently working on the OpenAtom project, or of any advances since the last activity long ago. Perhaps it's be

Thank for the detailed answer and showing a way forward. I don't think however I'll have the time and skill to make any real progress. Indeed my main interest is the freedom aspect. Coreboot has given me greater control over my technology and I am on the lookout to get better technology without
