[PATCH 0/1] platform/x86: Add Slim Bootloader firmware update support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Slim Bootloader(SBL) [1] is a small open-source boot firmware,
designed for running on certain Intel platforms. SBL can be
thought-of as fulfilling the role of a minimal BIOS
implementation, i.e initializing the hardware and booting
Operating System.

This driver creates sysfs interfaces which allows user space entities
to trigger update of SBL firmware.

Acknowledgment: Initial draft of the driver code was authored by
Maurice Ma <maurice.ma@xxxxxxxxx>
