config HAVE_ME_BIN
	bool "Add Intel ME/TXE firmware"
	depends on HAVE_IFD_BIN
	help
	  The Intel processor in the selected system requires a special firmware
	  for an integrated controller.  This might be called the Management
	  Engine (ME), the Trusted Execution Engine (TXE) or something else
	  depending on the chip. This firmware might or might not be available
	  in coreboot's 3rdparty/blobs repository. If it is not and if you don't
	  have access to the firmware from elsewhere, you can still build
	  coreboot without it. In this case however, you'll have to make sure
	  that you don't overwrite your ME/TXE firmware on your flash ROM.

config BUILD_WITH_FAKE_IFD
	bool "Build with a fake IFD" if !HAVE_IFD_BIN
	help
	  If you don't have an Intel Firmware Descriptor (descriptor.bin) for your
	  board, you can select this option and coreboot will build without it.
	  The resulting coreboot.rom will not contain all parts required
	  to get coreboot running on your board. You can however write only the
	  BIOS section to your board's flash ROM and keep the other sections
	  untouched. Unfortunately the current version of flashrom doesn't
	  support this yet. But there is a patch pending [1].

	  WARNING: Never write a complete coreboot.rom to your flash ROM if it
	           was built with a fake IFD. It just won't work.

config IFD_BIOS_SECTION
	depends on BUILD_WITH_FAKE_IFD
	string "BIOS Region Starting:Ending addresses within the ROM"
	default ""
	help
	  The BIOS region is typically the size of the CBFS area, and is located
	  at the end of the ROM space.

	  For an 8MB ROM with a 3MB CBFS area, this would look like:
	  0x00500000:0x007fffff

config IFD_ME_SECTION
	depends on BUILD_WITH_FAKE_IFD
	string "ME/TXE Region Starting:Ending addresses within the ROM"
	default ""
	help
	  The ME/TXE region typically starts at around 0x1000 and often fills the
	  ROM space not used by CBFS.

	  For an 8MB ROM with a 3MB CBFS area, this might look like:
	  0x00001000:0x004fffff

config IFD_GBE_SECTION
	depends on BUILD_WITH_FAKE_IFD
	string "GBE Region Starting:Ending addresses within the ROM"
	default ""
	help
	  The Gigabit Ethernet ROM region is used when an Intel NIC is built into
	  the Southbridge/SOC and the platform uses this device instead of an external
	  PCIe NIC.  It will be located between the ME/TXE and the BIOS region.

	  Leave this empty if you're unsure.

config IFD_PLATFORM_SECTION
	depends on BUILD_WITH_FAKE_IFD
	string "Platform Region Starting:Ending addresses within the Rom"
	default ""
	help
	  The Platform region is used for platform specific data.
	  It will be located between the ME/TXE and the BIOS region.

	  Leave this empty if you're unsure.

config LOCK_MANAGEMENT_ENGINE
	bool "Lock ME/TXE section"
	depends on HAVE_ME_BIN
	default n
	help
	  The Intel Firmware Descriptor supports preventing write accesses
	  from the host to the ME or TXE section in the firmware
	  descriptor. If the section is locked, it can only be overwritten
	  with an external SPI flash programmer. You will want this if you
	  want to increase security of your ROM image once you are sure
	  that the ME/TXE firmware is no longer going to change.

	  If unsure, say N.
