## New Topics?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* It was suggested that we should have a logo for libreBMC. Any thoughts from the team. **Nice to have, but should not be a focus right now**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Open the software stack to the world (talk to Mikey OzLab)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Step 1: Get the FPGA/DC-SCM card booting the AC922
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Step 2: Incorporate microwatt into lite-x natively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Question: Is this required before we open it up? Or is this really step 3?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Step 3: Open the software to the world
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Need others to be able to re-create the results.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Build all pieces -- Core, peripherals, OpenBMC,etc
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Need official OpenBMC project and a makefile, bitbake/etc
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Step 4: Include the firmware into the CI infrastructure
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Step 5: Enhancements -- hoping for further industry participation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Full FPGA support (I2C, FSI, etc) More than just bit banging
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Resource usage -- Shrink micro-watt to get 4 cores.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* See requirements from Tim A. on last call
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Full OpenBMC support expected for a standard server
