Creating a ffs image with this configuration: ``` @0,0x0, FIRST,0x400,0x100,,,/dev/zero ``` ``` $ touch test.ffs $ ./ffspart -s 0x1000 -c 10 -i test.csv -p test.ffs $ pflash -i -F test.ffs...
AFAICT Skiboot is now reproducible, except for the STB container. This is due to use of `openssl dgst -sign`, which doesn't support deterministic ECDSA (which is unfortunate anyway, as it's...
On x86_64 systems it's possible to use ``dmidecode -s system-uuid`` to get a UUID tied to the hardware. Then inventory management tools can use that UUID as a key to...
On a fast-reboot enabled system if OCC's are disabled, then next reboot is not making up disabled OCC's Disable OCC's by doing occ reset for more than 3 times [root@localhost...
Executed FWTS Tests on Ubuntu 16.10 with latest Skiboot Level. Below are the errors it got while executing. mem_info: OPAL MEM Info -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Test 1 of 1: OPAL MEM Info...
While running a loop reading DIMM sensors via opal-i2c driver and other sensors via in-band IPMI it is easy to trigger I2C timeouts and IPMI timeouts by attempting to read...
Following on from Matt's patches to decompress initramfs (which we still need to integrate), we should investigate also decompressing the kernel itself, which may improve boot time slightly too
From the mind of @ozbenh comes an idea to load things over PCI rather than LPC to get things flowing faster, hopefully gaining us some seconds of boot time
stop state flags used incorrectly by kernel, cannot prevent a kernel from using a stop state that it may not have the capability to support. This is what the linux...
