mainboard/pine64/rockpro64: Add initial ROCKPro64 support This adds initial support for the Pine64 ROCKPro64 board. The ROCKPro64 (http://pine64.org/rockpro64) is a SBC using the RK3399 SoC with up to 4GB LPDDR4. So far only the bootblock part works, the romstage starts to execute, though. For ramstage to work we'll need to port some of the changes required for LPDDR4 vs LPDDR3. This will be addressed in follow up changes. UART2 on the PI-2 connector can be used as a coreboot console. GND is pin 6 TXD is pin 8 RXD is pin 10 Flashing: I used an OpenWRT nightly for the ROCKPro64 and its builtin tool. $ mtd write coreboot.rom /dev/mtd0 Recovering from a bad flash: To recover from a bad flash bridging pins 23 and 25 on the PI-2 connector will make the board boot from SD card.

coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload.
With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required.
coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS.
After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot.
See https://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads.
coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards.

ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case).Optional:
make menuconfig and make nconfig)Please consult https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details.
If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU.
Please see https://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details.
