Hi The work for LATE -> EARLY CBMEM transition for AGESA has been available for review since February 2017. It's probably announced or mentioned only briefly on the mailing list, but certainly very visible on gerrit. Unfortunately people currently working on AMD platforms did not show much interest to review that work. Luckily, devs from chromeos team (who had no commercial interest, but maybe strings attached) stepped in the reviews so that the groundwork of AGESA interface changes got done and reviewed. What's left is merging the individual board changes, which I am about to do very soon now. Some regressions expected, most of the old defects remain unfixed. I should thank the couple individuals and companies that contributed by covering some costs of this development. Still, that does not magically turn all these boards into status of "maintained". Now, this applies to everyone: please push status updates for the boards you have access to, otherwise majority of AGESA boards just hit that deprecation in the next cycle of board removals. Also, when you create a board port and you go through all the trouble of getting it past (my strict or someone else's less strict) review policy, is it REALLY that hard to run board_status script? You know who you are. Is there something we need to do better here? Provide OS boot images just for this purpose? As for binaryPI boards, those are at EARLY_CBMEM_INIT starting from August 2. As for K8/K10, your help is needed in testing. This is particularly for boards with multiple CPU packages (nodes).
