For someone doing related work in the open (and least remarkably in the open),
Oxide Computer told some storied about the difficulty of bring up of a new motherboard, and mentioned a lot of gotcha details and hack solutions for managing their AMD chip.
They talked about their bring up sequence, boot chain verification on their motherboard, and designing / creating / verifying their hardware root of trust.
I heard mention of this on a podcast recently, trying to find the reference. I'm pretty sure it was [S3]
- "Tales from the Bringup Lab" https://lnns.co/FBf5oLpyHK3 https://lnns.co/FBf5oLpyHK3
- or "More Tales from the Bringup Lab" https://lnns.co/LQur_ToJX9m https://lnns.co/LQur_ToJX9m
But I found again these interesting things worth sharing on that search.
- https://oxide.computer/blog/hubris-and-humility https://oxide.computer/blog/hubris-and-humility, see https://github.com/oxidecomputer/hubris https://github.com/oxidecomputer/hubris as some of their key enabling software/firmware, custom written—-tradeoffs discussed in podcast.
