-------- Original Message -------- Subject: AMD SB700/SB710/SB750 docs have been released! Date: Thu, 09 Jul 2009 03:59:36 +0200 From: Carl-Daniel Hailfinger <c-d.@gmx.net> To: Coreboot <core@coreboot.org>

AMD just released the following docs we need for SB700/SB710/SB750 coreboot support:

* AMD SB700/710/750 Register Reference Guide * AMD SB700/710/750 BIOS Developer’s Guide * AMD SB700/710/750 Register Programming Requirements * AMD SB710 Databook

Links to all data sheets are at http://www.coreboot.org/Datasheets#AMD_SB700.2FSB710.2FSB750

This is a great step towards supporting current RS780/SB700 family systems.

Immediate benefits of this doc release are: - We can implement SB700/SB710/SB750 support without NDA. - We can study the embedded controller environment and the SuperI/O

I am running -current on an ASUS M4A78T-E which has the SB750 chipset. Seems to work fine, -j8 buildworld is 21 minutes, buildkernel with modules is about 7 minutes. I'm not using any of the RAID functionality.

The dmesg is here:
