Re: [edk2] [edk2-announce] ATTN: List Transition Begins Today

by Leif Lindholm

FYI: EDK2 development mailing list changing to devel(a)edk2.groups.io This will give us some better flexibility with regards to whitelisting non-subscribers and suchlike currently not possible through 01.org.

EBBR SC meeting on-site at Connect

by Grant Likely

[Updated with new room] Hi all, For those of you at Linaro Connect, I’ve scheduled an EBBR Face to Face on Wednesday. I’ll email around an agenda tomorrow. Email me if you’ve got anything specific you’d like to discuss. For those of you who aren’t here, I’ll try to provide a remote dial-in but I’m not hopeful that it will work. I will make sure good notes are taken, and we’ll do a summary on the next regular conference call. Cheers, g.

EBBR v1.0-rc1

by Grant Likely

Hi all, Last week I tagged v1.0-rc1 of EBBR. The release .pdf can be found here: https://github.com/ARM-software/ebbr/releases It should represent the content we've discussed in the regular meetings for a baseline v1.0 EBBR. Please review and comment. If there are no major objections I intend to release v1.0 final on Friday this week ahead of Linaro Connect. g.

EBBR v0.8 released

by Grant Likely

Hi all, Yesterday I tagged EBBR v0.8 in the git repo and published a new pdf. Please go review and comment. https://github.com/ARM-software/ebbr/releases/tag/v0.8 We're nearing the end of the v1.0 process. I would like to tag a v1.0 release before the end of March. Feedback comments from v0.6 and v0.7 have been incorporated. Presuming no major objections, I will tag a v1.0-rc1 on Monday 18 March 2019, to be followed by a final v1.0 on Friday 29 March, There is one more outstanding change that didn't make it into v0.8, but will be in the next release. The UEFI requirements appendix has been removed as it merely duplicates requirements already listed in the UEFI specification. Thanks, g.

[PATCH] Remove unnecessary UEFI requirement tables

by Grant Likely

Nothing in the UEFI Requirements appendix is valuable. The table of required boot services is unnecessary because it is an exact duplicate of the UEFI boot services list in the UEFI spec (and it also happens to be slightly incorrect) (UEFI 2.6.1). It is providing no value to include in EBBR as all UEFI implementations are required to implement the full set. The tables of required core protocols are already specified in the UEFI spec (UEFI 2.6.1) The table of required media i/o protocols are already required if the device supports booting from a disk device (UEFI 2.6.2). The table of console protocols is similarly already required if a console device is present. It isn't clear that HII protocols need to be required. U-Boot does implement them, but it doesn't appear to be a critical requirement on whether or not an OSV can support the platform. The tables of optional UEFI protocols isn't adding any value because it doesn't require anything of implementers, and it doesn't provide any commentary on when the protocols should be included. This is just additional text. Remove the lot to simplify the spec.
