The 4.14 release is planned for May 2021.
Update this document with changes that should be in the release notes.
SAR support in VPD has been deprecated for Chrome OS platforms for > 1 year now. All new Chrome OS platforms have switched to using SAR tables from CBFS. For the next release, coreboot is updated to align with the Chrome OS factory changes and hence SAR support in VPD is deprecated in CB:51483. Starting with this release, anyone building coreboot for an already released Chrome OS platform with SAR table in VPD will have to extract the "wifi_sar" key from VPD and add it as a file to CBFS using following steps:
vpd -i RO_VPD -g wifi_sar
echo ${SAR_STRING} > site-local/${BOARD}-sar.hex
config WIFI_SAR_CBFS_FILEPATH string default "site-local/${BOARD}-sar.hex"
CB:46484 changed the in-flash file format of coreboot stages to prepare for per-file signature verification. As described in the commit message in more details, when manipulating stages in a CBFS, the cbfstool build must match the coreboot image so that they're using the same format: coreboot.rom and cbfstool must be built from coreboot sources that either both contain this change or both do not contain this change.
Since stages are usually only handled by the coreboot build system which builds its own cbfstool (and therefore it always matches coreboot.rom) this shouldn't be a concern in the vast majority of scenarios.
