Hi All,
Could you please help us on the below queries:
1. How to issue soft reset from coreboot source ?
2. We issued soft reset using outb command from a sample Elf payload. The
board boots to payload through coreboot, sends POST codes from 0x8 to 0x0f for
two iterations and then the payload will trigger soft reset. After about 20
mins the board gets hang. Below is the code we are using for soft reset from
payload.
outb(RST_CPU | SYS_RST, RST_CNT);
while (1)
__asm__(“hlt”);
Is the above method is correct way for issuing soft reset ?
Please provide feedback on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Antony

Subject: Re: [coreboot] Coreboot hangs during SYS_RESET
1. Can you make sure right microcode based on the CPUID is added. This is must.
Based on CPUID(I guess 506cX for APL), you can locate them at 3rdparty/blobs/..
Select CBFS GENERATE and specify CPU UCODE BINARIES path.
2. Can you provide complete log and config(after adding microcode into cbfs) if
you still see sys_reset issue.
Regards,
Naresh

I'm confused by the following logs in romstage:
CBFS @ 0 size 70000
CBFS: Locating 'romstage.rel'
CBFS: Found @ offset 64c0 size 480
romstage is relocated from fef40054 to 0x7abf1000
I'm not familiar where this code is coming from. Are you carrying
external patches or have I forgotten what is going on here?
