Hi folks, I haven't followed the previous discussion on this matter, so one question: Is this a coreboot issue? If this noise doesn't occur with the vendor firmware, has anybody checked if coreboot uses the same power management timing settings? (e.g. C4-TIMING_CNT, see [1], there might be more

These power supply issues are quite fun, like other things. The mistake would be to say that, because there is noise, coreboot is wrong and vendor firmware is right. It can be far more subtle than that. It could even be the case that coreboot is right, the vendor code is wrong, and the correction
