Recommonmark has been deprecated since 2021 [1] and the last release was
over 3 years ago [2]. As per their announcement, Markedly Structured
Text (MyST) Parser [3] is the recommended replacement.
For the most part, the existing documentation is compatible with MyST,
as both parsers are built around the CommonMark flavor of Markdown. The
main difference that affects coreboot is how the Sphinx toctree is
generated. Recommonmark has a feature called auto_toc_tree, which
converts single level lists of references into a toctree:
* [Part 1: Starting from scratch](part1.md)
* [Part 2: Submitting a patch to coreboot.org](part2.md)
* [Part 3: Writing unit tests](part3.md)
* [Managing local additions](managing_local_additions.md)
* [Flashing firmware](flashing_firmware/index.md)
MyST Parser does not provide a replacement for this feature, meaning the
toctree must be defined manually. This is done using MyST's syntax for
Sphinx directives:
```{toctree}
:maxdepth: 1
Part 1: Starting from scratch <part1.md>
Part 2: Submitting a patch to coreboot.org <part2.md>
Part 3: Writing unit tests <part3.md>
Managing local additions <managing_local_additions.md>
Flashing firmware <flashing_firmware/index.md>
```
Internally, auto_toc_tree essentially converts lists of references into
the Sphinx toctree structure that the MyST syntax above more directly
represents.
The toctrees were converted to the MyST syntax using the following
command and Python script:
`find ./ -iname "*.md" | xargs -n 1 python conv_toctree.py`
```
import re
import sys
in_list = False
f = open(sys.argv[1])
lines = f.readlines()
f.close()
with open(sys.argv[1], "w") as f:
for line in lines:
match = re.match(r"^[-*+] \[(.*)\]\((.*)\)$", line)
if match is not None:
if not in_list:
in_list = True
f.write("```{toctree}\n")
f.write(":maxdepth: 1\n\n")
f.write(match.group(1) + " <" + match.group(2) + ">\n")
else:
if in_list:
f.write("```\n")
f.write(line)
in_list = False
if in_list:
f.write("```\n")
```
While this does add a little more work for creating the toctree, this
does give more control over exactly what goes into the toctree. For
instance, lists of links to external resources currently end up in the
toctree, but we may want to limit it to pages within coreboot.
This change does break rendering and navigation of the documentation in
applications that can render Markdown, such as Okular, Gitiles, or the
GitHub mirror. Assuming the docs are mainly intended to be viewed after
being rendered to doc.coreboot.org, this is probably not an issue in
practice.
Another difference is that MyST natively supports Markdown tables,
whereas with Recommonmark, tables had to be written in embedded rST [4].
However, MyST also supports embedded rST, so the existing tables can be
easily converted as the syntax is nearly identical.
These were converted using
`find ./ -iname "*.md" | xargs -n 1 sed -i "s/eval_rst/{eval-rst}/"`
Makefile.sphinx and conf.py were regenerated from scratch by running
`sphinx-quickstart` using the updated version of Sphinx, which removes a
lot of old commented out boilerplate. Any relevant changes coreboot had
made on top of the previous autogenerated versions of these files were
ported over to the newly generated file.
From some initial testing the generated webpages appear and function
identically to the existing documentation built with Recommonmark.
TEST: `make -C util/docker docker-build-docs` builds the documentation
successfully and the generated output renders properly when viewed in
a web browser.

HP EliteBook 2170p
This page is about the notebook HP EliteBook 2170p.
Release status
HP EliteBook 2170p was released in 2012 and is now end of life. It can be bought from a secondhand market like Taobao or eBay.
Required proprietary blobs
The following blobs are required to operate the hardware:
- EC firmware
- Intel ME firmware
EC firmware can be retrieved from the HP firmware update image, or the firmware backup of the laptop. EC Firmware is part of the coreboot build process. The guide on extracting EC firmware and using it to build coreboot is in document HP Laptops with KBC1126 Embedded Controller.
Intel ME firmware is in the flash chip. It is not needed when building coreboot.
Programming
The flash chip is located between the memory slots, WWAN card and CPU, covered by the base enclosure, which needs to be removed according to the Maintenance and Service Guide to access the flash chip. Unlike other variants, the flash chip on 2170p is socketed, so it can be taken off and operated with an external programmer.
Pin 1 of the flash chip is at the side near the CPU.
For more details have a look at the general flashing tutorial.
Debugging
The board can be debugged with serial port on the dock or EHCI debug. The EHCI debug port is the left USB3 port.
Test status
Known issues
- GRUB payload freezes if at_keyboard module is in the GRUB image ([bug #141])
Untested
- Fingerprint Reader
- Dock: Parallel port, PS/2 mouse, S-Video port
Working
- Integrated graphics init with libgfxinit
- SATA
- Audio: speaker and microphone
- Ethernet
- WLAN
- WWAN
- Bluetooth
- SD Card Reader
- SmartCard Reader
- USB
- DisplayPort
- Keyboard, touchpad and trackpoint
- EC ACPI support and thermal control
- Dock: all USB ports, DVI-D, Serial debug, PS/2 keyboard
- TPM
- Internal flashing when IFD is unlocked
