Added

Changed

  • Added new ACPI Platform driver that installs coreboot exposed ACPI tables and all allows native EDK2 ACPI table protocol to install new tables, e.g. Firmware Performance Data Table, BGRT (Boot Logo) of VFCT (AMD GPU ACPI table)
  • Secure Boot is now disabled by default with all keys erased
  • iPXE is now built from source using coreboot-sdk and included externally into UEFI Payload
  • Dasharo setup menu full screen mode support

  • Switched from IOT FSP to public ADL Client FSP
  • Switched to include microcode from public Intel microcode repository
