HI

You can’t generate the FSP binary unless you have the FSP source code.

Thanks.,
S, Ashraf Ali

Hello S, Ashraf Ali,
Thank you so much for providing the documents. I have checked and studied the IntelFsp2Pkg. We are working on the BirchStream. We have only the BirchStream.bsf file. How we can generate the birchstream.fd binary file using  EDK2(open source). Should we require another file to generate the binary file? I checked some FspBinPkg. They contain some folders, For example WhitelyFspBinPkg contain Docs, Include, Library, UefiDrivers, fsp.bsf, Fsp.fd, and some .dsc.

Could you please suggest and provide the reference to generate the fsp bin package?

Thank you so much.

Best Regards,
Kuldeep Singh Rana

Have in mind not all Intel platforms have their FSPs publicized. Also the bsf files do not generate FSP binaries they are just a means for patching the FSP configuration regions inside those binaries.
> The IntelFsp2Pkg in the edk2 repo is just a sample package for the APIs used in the FSP binaries which has to be ported for each platform differently which also needs proprietary resources, about the silicon, provided by Intel. For further information please refer to the "Intel® Firmware Support Package External Architecture Specification" and "A Tour Beyond BIOS Using the Intel® Firmware Support Package"
