This is the "ports implemented" map, and 0x3f enables all 6 SATA ports 7-series PCHs could ever have. Boards are supposed to zero the bits for ports that aren't actually on the board, but based on what Walter said, one of the ports between ports 0-3 is also not implemented - this board only has 4 SATA ports. To get at the correct value all six bits (ie. 0x01-0x20) will need to be tested to find out which port is which - and we now know port 4 (or the fifth) is black, port 0 is blue (for it supports 6Gbps and with its Q75 PCH it must be port 0) and port 5 is not implemented because that bit being 0 didn't break any physical port. But I'll wait for Walter's report before finalizing this value.

There is a config option to hide the ME if it fails.

Mr. Jenkins is a QC bot. ;-) ---------------------------------------- Support #581: success new variant "compaq_pro_6300_sff" for hp/snb_ivb_desktops compatible with "compaq_8300_elite_sff" template https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/581#change-2016 * Author: Walter Sonius * Status: New * Priority: Normal * Category: board support * Target version: none * Start date: 2025-03-15 ---------------------------------------- Successful flash and coreboot SeaBIOS functioning of a HP "compaq_pro_6300_sff" with a unchanged "compaq_8300_elite_sff" template using coreboot (24.12-758-g1e7ba810c6bb) and SeaBIOS (version rel-1.16.3-0-ga6ed6b70). These two HP Compaq devices are extremely similar, they use the same OEM proprietary BIOS upgrade files. Hardware wise the only 3 noticeable differences are that the "compaq_8300_elite_sff" comes with a Q77 chipset, SuperIO NPCD378 and J32 labeled 16x length "white" PCI-E slot versus a Q75 chipset, SuperIO NPCD379HAKFX with the J32 labeled slot populated with a limited physical 1x length "black" PCI-E slot on the "compaq_pro_6300_sff". Flashing from OEM proprietary BIOS 3.08revA enabling the FDO jumper on the motherboard as described for the compaq_8300_elite_sff works by booting with "iomem=relaxed" kernel parameter and specifying the specific 16MB chip 25Q128A: flashrom -p internal -w cbtest.rom -c "MT25QL128" Tested and Working: Poweron/Poweroff/Reboot CPU i3-3220 / e3-1225v2 RAM 1x 2x 4x populated slots total of 4GB/8GB/16GB/24GB (both 1.35v and 1.5v modules mixed with ECC) Serial port (including coreboot) PS2 keyboard (including SeaBIOS) PS2 mouse SATA 3 ports (blue/white/white) USB 2.0 4x front & 2x back ports USB 3.0 4x back ports Ethernet 1Gbit/100Mbit Display port works in SeaBIOS and OS VGA port only works in OS!

What to do next to get this "compaq_pro_6300_sff" variant officially supported? *Supply more logs/info? *Fill a bug for the ECC not working or first get this variant supported as is? *Fill a bug that VGA doesn't work in SeaBIOS? *Fill a bug/ticket on the flashrom support list for the difference in parameters needed pre/post flash? https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/hp-compaq-pro-6300-small-form-factor-pc/model/5232884 https://support.hp.com/in-en/drivers/hp-compaq-elite-8300-small-form-factor-pc/model/5232855 Walter Sonius ---Files-------------------------------- cb-log-hp-compaq_pro_6300_sff.txt (51.8 KB) hp-compaq-pro-6300-oem-and-coreboot-autoport.zip (266 KB) cb-pull97add0a-log-ed2k-hp-compaq_pro_6300_sff-mt-deselect-vga-vga-working.txt (47.7 KB) cb-pull97add0a-log-ed2k-hp-compaq_pro_6300_sff-mt-deselect-vga-dp-hdmi-working.txt (47.8 KB) cb-pull97add0a-log-sb-hp-compaq_pro_6300_sff-mt.txt (54.6 KB) cb-pull264053a-log-ed2k-mcb2408-hp-compaq_pro_6300_sff-mt-me-S.txt (46.1 KB) -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
