i made EDK2 purple
yes. purple in your UEFI firmware
i did it because i believe in it
now all i need is purple grub (efi build instead of coreboot target). i added csmwrap (seabios fork) to edk2 in libreboot as well recently, gives you legacy bios
EFI GRUB is better supported upstream and will mean i can drop a bunch of drivers e.g. xHCI currently maintained out of tree. let GRUB piggyback off of EDK2. that stuff can still use my grub scripting and colud be made to still have e.g. CBFS support
next libreboot release will be EDK2-only, on most boards. users with existing linux installs or bsd installs can use seabios via EDK2 or GRUB via EDK2. this will all be in-flash, backwards compatible
EDK2 is just really, really nice, and i want it to be everywhere in libreboot.
https://codeberg.org/libreboot/lbmk/commit/04f96a888a2f9e52a7c721443bd9e00da47ffc0fand it will all be purple
PS: also enabled native raminit and libgfxinit on haswell chromebooks. and libgfx on broadwell/kabylake/skylake chromebooks
now i just gotta make memtest86+ purple
