Dear Coreboot Community,
I am currently developing a custom motherboard based on Intel Raptor Lake-S=
 processors and the Intel chipset with DDR5 memory support. I would like to=
 port Coreboot to this platform and am seeking guidance from the community =
regarding board bring-up and firmware development.
My understanding is that Raptor Lake support in Coreboot is based on the Al=
der Lake platform architecture and Intel FSP integration. I would appreciat=
e any recommendations on the best existing mainboards or reference implemen=
tations that can be used as a starting point for a custom Raptor Lake-S +  =
DDR5 design.
I am particularly looking for guidance on the following topics:

  *   Intel FSP requirements and integration for Raptor Lake-S.
  *   DDR5 memory initialization and training.
  *   H610 chipset configuration and board enablement.
  *   GPIO and pad configuration setup.
  *   Intel ME firmware requirements.
  *   Boot Guard considerations during development.
  *   PCIe, SATA, USB, and onboard peripheral initialization.
  *   Early boot debugging methods (UART, POST codes, external SPI flashing=
, etc.).
  *   Recommended development workflow for a new custom mainboard port.

Our goal is to bring up Coreboot on a custom Raptor Lake-S + DDR5 motherboa=
rd intended for a custom computing platform. We are currently setting up th=
e build environment and reviewing existing Alder Lake and Raptor Lake imple=
mentations within the Coreboot source tree.
Thank you for your time and support. Any documentation, examples, or recomm=
endations would be extremely helpful.


Thanks & Regards,

Keshavamurthy K
