This patch series adds ignition ME firmware binaries for the 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors and chipsets formerly known as Cascade Lake to the edk2-non-osi repository. Ignition Firmware is a variant of ME firmware that is intended to provide lightweight chipset initialization. It does not contain all the features of the Intel® Server Platform Services (SPS) ME firmware. Ignition Firmware is consequently much smaller than Intel® SPS Firmware (~0.5 MB vs. ~3 MB). This patch series represents a milestone for Intel as it is the first time Intel has provided a ME firmware binary under a redistributable license to the public. The license is identical to the license for Microcode and FSP.

Hi, This is great news. What I don't understand yet is how this relates to the removal of the Purley platform and the comments made when the bug report requesting Cascade Lake support was closed. Does this mean a replacement for the Purley Refresh platform that supports the MinPlatform architecture can be expected shortly? Best Regards, Wim Vervoorn Eltan B.V.

Hi Wim, Yeah I was excited to send the patch series! Just to clear up any potential confusion "Purley Refresh" and "Cascade Lake" are one and the same. With regard to the removal of the Purley MinPlatform code, basically it just comes down to nobody was maintaining it. It was never compliant with the MinPlatform spec and it was missing a lot of the new changes. Most of the maintainers were not even responding to email patches. We would love to have a good MinPlatform implementation for it, its just there isn't enough people actively contributing to the development of MinPlatform right now. Hopefully it can be resurrected at some point. Thanks, Nate -----Original Message----- From: Wim Vervoorn <wvervoorn@eltan.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 20, 2019 3:11 AM To: devel@edk2.groups.io; Desimone, Nathaniel L <nathaniel.l.desimone@intel.com> Cc: Oram, Isaac W <isaac.w.oram@intel.com>; Zimmer, Vincent <vincent.zimmer@intel.com>; Kubacki, Michael A <michael.a.kubacki@intel.com> Subject: RE: [edk2-devel] [edk2-non-osi] [PATCH V2 0/1] Add ME Firmware Binaries for Cascade Lake Hi, This is great news.
