Article published by: Leah Rowe

Date of publication: 30 June 2025

A corresponding Canoeboot 25.06 release is also available.

There was a Libreboot 25.04 release in April 2025, but that is retroactively regarded as an RC of 25.06. The original 25.06 release announcement showed changes since 25.04, but the changelog is now relative to December 2024. This reflects the revised release schedule. It means that the changelog is much bigger, and also includes the changes that went in Libreboot 25.04.

Today’s Libreboot 25.06 revision is a stable release, whereas the previous stable release was Libreboot 20241206. This revised release log lists all changes as of today, 30 June 2025, since the Libreboot 20241206 release of December 2024.

PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING, OR YOU MAY BRICK YOUR MACHINE!! - Please click the link and follow the instructions there, before flashing. For posterity, here is the link again.

Libreboot is a free/open source BIOS/UEFI replacement on x86 and ARM, providing boot firmware that initialises the hardware in your computer, to then load an operating system (e.g. Linux/BSD). It is specifically a coreboot distribution, in the same way that Debian is a Linux distribution. It provides an automated build system to produce coreboot ROM images with a variety of payloads such as GRUB or SeaBIOS, with regular well-tested releases to make coreboot as easy to use as possible for non-technical users. From a project management perspective, this works in exactly the same way as a Linux distro, providing a source-based package manager (called lbmk) which patches sources and compiles coreboot images. It makes use of coreboot for hardware initialisation, and then a payload such as SeaBIOS or GRUB to boot your operating system; on ARM(chromebooks) and certain x86 mainboards, we provide U-Boot (as a coreboot payload), which provides a lightweight UEFI implementation..

This section provides a brief overview, summarising all of the changes. The next sections (after this) show all changes in detail.

The most important changes are, thus:

New mainboards:

• Acer Q45T-AM support added (similar to G43T-AM3 mainboard)
• Dell Precision T1700 SFF and MT

Revision updates:

• GRUB, SeaBIOS, Untitled, flashprog, U-Boot, uefitool have all been updated to newer revisions, from ~April 2025.

Security:

• GRUB has has a lot of security fixes applied to it from upstream, including a very large series of 73 major security fixes, and a few minor tweaks after the fact.
• Globbing issues fixed in the Libreboot build system, lbmk. Better error handling in general.
• ThinkPad T480/3050micro: Disable hyperthreading by default

Feature changes:

• Better, more reliable caching of Git repositories and files during download. Re-builds of sources make better use of local caching, instead of downloading from scratch every time (e.g. coreboot and GRUB sources).
• Handling of vendor files is more reliable, caching everything more aggressively and even verifying checksums of extracted files, from inside update archives.
• Non-root USB hub support added to GRUB, for xHCI devices
• GRUB: better LVM scanning, for auto-boot especially with encrypted /boot/; Linux distros are easier to handle, in general.
• Safer handling of vendor files; release images padded to prevent flashing, where such files are needed, until they have been inserted.
• Better MAC address handling, on IFD-based systems. Insertion of MAC addresses is done by default, randomised by default, unless overridden by the user.

Config changes:

• Removed unnecessary sources by default, to make source archives smaller. Only the sources needed to build the binaries are included, in many cases.
• Updated various dependencies configs, for installing build dependencies in various Linux distros (for the ./build dependencies command which installs them in your distro).

Bug fixes:

• Better checksum verification for project files, when deciding whether to re-build a given upstream source.
• General build system fixes, making the build process more reliable, with much stricter error handling (and some false error conditions have also been removed).
• GRUB payload: Mark E820 reserved for cbmem, which means that you no longer need iomem=relaxed (kernel option) at boot time, to access the cbmem console.
• Use x instead of ? in nvmutil, as a character for randomness in MAC addresses, to work around a design quirk in ZSH.
• Where files are operated on post-build, e.g. coreboot images, more strictly operate on them first, erroring out more reliably when a fault occurs; prevent bad files from being copied to final build destinations. This reduces the chance of bad/corrupt build artifacts being present in release builds.
• HP EliteBook 820 G2 images now included in releases, because handling of the refcode files was corrected so that checksum verification passes during insertion.

This, and more, has all been done. There was also a general focus on heavily auditing the build system, lbmk, so as to clean up the code. The amount of overall code in lbmk was reduced, without removing functionality.

These next sections will repeat many of the above items, but in more detail.

The priority for the first half of 2025 has been on further auditing the Libreboot build system, so fewer board ports were added. More board ports will be added instead in the December 2025 release (a lot more).

The following boards have been added since the Libreboot 20241206 release:

• Acer Q45T-AM support added (similar to G43T-AM3 mainboard)
• Dell Precision T1700 SFF and MT

Board ports were low priority for this release; now it shall be the focus, between June 2025 and October 2025, ready for the 25.12 release cycle leading into December 2025.

Dell Precision T1700 is essentially the OptiPlex 9020 but with a slightly different, code-compatible PCH that also supports ECC memory features when an Intel Xeon processor is installed.

In descending order from latest changes to earliest changes:

• GRUB: Update to revision 73d1c959e (14 March 2025)
• Bump SeaBIOS to to rev 9029a010, 4 March 2025
• Updated Untitled to newer LBSSG repository.
• Bump flashprog to rev e060018 (1 March 2025)
• Bump U-Boot on ARM64 boards to U-Boot v2025.04. Patching courtesy of Alper Nebi Yasak.
• Bump uefitool to rev a072527, 26 Apr 2025 to fix CMake compatibility issue since CMake 4 no longer supports version 3.5, whereas the old uefitool had an earlier version as the minimum supported. This fixed a minor build error.
• Merged coreboot/next with coreboot/default
• Bump coreboot/next to rev c247f62749b as of 20 April 2025
• Bump coreboot/default to rev c247f62749b as of 20 April 2025
• Bump flashprog to revision eb2c041 (14 Nov 2024).

The GRUB revision includes a number of critical CVE fixes, and regression fixes, that were also included in Libreboot 20241206 rev11. Some later fixes are also present, such as wiping LUKS keys from memory after successfully booting Linux (Linux handles LUKS itself, and starts the process again).

The NASM version was updated to version 2.16.03 on coreboot/fam15h, to prevent build errors, instead of fixing the old NASM 2.14.02. Tested on Debian Sid Experimental, with GCC15-based toolchain, and on Fedora 42.

PICO support: Reverted to the old pico serprog/sdk repositories used in Libreboot 20240612. This is temporary, because pico2 support is currently broken, so this release only has pico1 support, when dealing with Rpi Pico devices. Upstream pico-serprog works fine on pico2, so this will be fixed in and re-updated again in a future revision release. The pico2 update images were retroactively removed from the 20241206 release on rsync.

A patch from upstream was backported to the old pico-sdk version, so that it builds correctly on newer GCC15 (tested on Debian Sid with “Experimental” packages enabled).

• Added SPDX license headers to almost every configuration file in lbmk.

These can be considered bug fixes, but these are special fixes that are of massive concern to users.

• This GRUB change was merged, in the aforementioned revision update: dbc0eb5bd disk/cryptodisk: Wipe the passphrase from memory - this wipes the LUKS key from memory, after GRUB exits, where one was created by GRUB while unlocking a given volume.
• Merged 73 critical CVE fixes into the GNU GRUB source code, from upstream.
• Stricter use of pledge and unveil in the nvmutil source code.
• Much safer ./mk inject. It used to be that the tarballs were extracted and files inserted into the extracted images, but the tarballs were left unmodified; many users thought then that they should extract the tarball and flash that, which lead to bricks. And it was easy to flash uninjected images, where files (e.g. Intel ME) are needed, so now ROM images are padded by one byte, to prevent flashing, and the user is strongly reminded to inject files first; upon running the ./mk inject commands, these images are then safe to flash.
• Fix globbing issues in lbmk by double-quoting variables everywhere, and generally making sure that certain characters are escaped properly when necessary. To reduce the chance of bad commands being run by mistake or intentionally.
• Removed auto-confirm on ./mk dependencies commands, to mitigate the risk of a buggy package manager on the user’s distro possibly removing many packages. Now the user must confirm their choice, e.g. when a conflict occurs, instead of the package manager already deciding for the user.
• ThinkPad T480 / OptiPlex 3050: Disable HyperThreading/SMT by default, for security, to reduce the attack vector of certain speculative execution-based exploits.

In descending order from latest changes to earliest changes:

• init.sh: looser XBMK_THREADS validation; correct it on child instances, if it’s not set, or set incorrectly.
• get.sh: use subshells on try_ functions, wrapped in an error handler so as to provide more verbose output under fault conditions. This makes it easier to debug when a download fails.
• git.sh: Re-implement redundant git downloads, more reliably than before; all repositories are now cached, reliably, including submodules, even when upstream repo links differ wildly. This reduces the amount of internet bandwidth used, when handling multiple builds.
• release.sh: build in tmp directory first, leaving old files behind under fault conditions, for further analysis
• inject.sh: re-add mac address confirmation, for user-friendliness, when running the inject commands.
• init.sh: Resolve XBMK_CACHE via readlink
• init.sh: Use readlink in pybin(), with realpath only as fallback. This makes the function more redundant, working on more systems by default.
• lib.sh: support any command on find_exec() (later renamed); this is a generic function, that implements a while loop for a given set of files, based on the output a command that generates those paths. This is operated on by a function, defined when calling find_exec. This unifies all use of while loops on lists of files and directories, throughout xbmk, rather than re-implementing the for/while loops each time.
• inject.sh: simplify kconfig scanning by using the fe_ with a new function, scankconfig(). This new function checks all coreboot configs for a given target, whereas the old behaviour only resulted in the first config being checked. In practise, this causes no real behaviour changes.
• rom.sh: Print the rom image path being generated
• lib.sh: Add warning if x_ is called without args
• init.sh: More verbose error info, on non-zero exits.
• util/nvmutil: Within each 4KB part, only handle 4KB, even if the block size is bigger. This means using less memory, and modification of anything past 4KB is not required.
• util/nvmutil: Support 16KB and 128KB GbE files, in addition to the usual 8KB files. The size is based on the block size of the flash you use.
• Added non-root USB3 hub support to GRUB on the xHCI implementation, courtesy of a patch from Nitrokey.
• GRUB: Scan LUKS inside every LVM, to support the uncommon use case where LUKS is inside LVM, instead of LVM inside LUKS. It is theoretically possible, even if ill advised.
• GRUB: Scan every LVM device, where available, as a fallback at boot time when all else fails.
• Release ROMs prefixed with a “DO NOT FLASH” warning and padded by one byte, where vendor files are required. The ./mk inject commands remove this prefix/padding, after vendor files are inserted and checksums verified.
• Better detecting of whether vendor files are needed, and confirmation to the user while running ./mk inject commands.
• Allow restoring the default MAC address on ./mk inject commands, by using the setmac restore arguments.
• Randomise the MAC address by default, where applicable, when running the ./mk inject commands, because lots of users previously flashed without changing it, so lots of users had generic MAC addresses. The setmac keep argument prevents this from happening, where desired.
• include/vendor.sh: More user-friendly debug messages, for the user to know what’s going on.
• util/nvmutil: Add uninstall command to the Makefile
• util/nvmutil: Add distclean command to the Makefile
• util/nvmutil: Nicer hexdump display, similar to hexdump -C.
• Support a re argument in ./mk dependencies Fedora commands, for re-installation of packages as desired.
• Support --reinstall in the ./mk dependencies debian command, when the user wants to re-install dependencies.
• Put temporary PATH directory in the normal XBMK_CACHE directory, and clear it whenever a new parent instance of the build system is executed. This is used for the GCC/GNAT matched symlinks, for example, or the python symlink created at startup.
• Pico 2 support briefly added, but was a bit buggy for now, so it’s removed in this release, and was retroactively removed in rsync for the Libreboot 20241206 release; this will be re-added in a future release.
• Added GRUB-first payload setups as an option, but not enabled by default. The user can add payload_grubsea="y" in the target.cfg file for a given mainboard.
• Support automatically downloading Lenovo ThunderBolt firmware for the ThinkPad T480, automatically padding it for installation. This update fixes a charging bug that affected some earlier launch models.
• Insert GRUB backgrounds in CBFS instead of GRUB memdisk, which makes GRUB background images easier to replace.

In descending order from the latest changes to the earliest changes:

• ifd/hp8300usdt: set the HAP bit by default; it was previously not set, but the me_cleaner config was nonetheless used, and ME Soft Temporary Disable was also used. As a result, this change is basically redundant, but otherwise technically correct (more so than the previous behaviour).
• coreboot: Remove unused vboot tests (futility tests), to shrink the size of release tarballs.
• coreboot/default: Remove unneeded FSP modules when downloading, because only the Kabylake version is needed at this time. This is done, using the nuke() function via nuke.list files. This shrinks the size of release tarballs.
• dependencies/debian: add libx86
• HP 820 G2: Use fam15h cbfstool tree for refcode; this avoids the need to clutter the source code with an entire additional coreboot tree, thus reducing the size of releases.
• A GRUB configuration change was made, fixing auto-scanning of LVMs when doing cryptomount.
• T480/3050micro: Removed the fsp targets, because we only need the vfsp targets.
• Added gnutls-devel to Fedora 41 dependencies.
• Added libx86 to Arch dependencies, needed for the int utility.
• Added less to Arch dependencies, because it’s needed for certain commands e.g. git commands.
• GRUB: Use the codeberg mirror first, to mitigate GNU mirrors often being slow or rate limited, e.g. for gnulib downloads.
• fedora41/dependencies: add libuuid-devel
• Added uuid-devel to fedora41 dependencies
• flashprog: Disable -Werror to prevent minor warnings being treated as errors.

This combines both build system fixes, and changes to upstream sources (e.g. coreboot and various payloads like SeaBIOS/GRUB, utilities like flashprog, and so on).

The following bug fixes have been merged (in descending order from the latest changes to the earliest changes):

• tree.sh: add sha512 error for check_project_hashes(). Handle errors in sha512sum and awk; also check that project.hash exists and error out if it doesn’t, when checking a given project hash. We know that the project hash file should always exist, and always be read; technically, find might not yield results, but then an empty file would be produced. the empty file edge-case scenario would already have resulted in an error exit inside configure_project(), so that’s already covered.
• tree.sh: add error checking in check_project_hashes(), when reading the old_pkhash variable; we need to error out where a read error occurs. such an error is extremely unlikely, so this fix is largely theoretical and preventative.
• tree.sh: more reliable clean in run_make_command(); don’t do a no-op if it fails, instead fall back to the clean method, and throw an error if that fails. The no-op existed because not all projects have distclean, but we always intend for them to be cleaned. This therefore prevents further unhandled error conditions, in such edge cases.
• put coreboot utils in elf/coreboot/TREE, to prevent old binaries from still being used when a code change is made.
• release.sh: use printf to create version files, instead of copying the version files, because they don’t exist in some cases, so this prevents an error condition.
• init.sh: error out if .git/ is a symlink; this is a preventative bug fix, to prevent future unknown bugs in such a scenario.
• get.sh: Properly error out if tmpclone() fails, where it previously failed to throw an error under certain fault conditions.
• tree.sh: Don’t auto-run make-oldconfig; it now must be applied permanently, via e.g. ./mk -u commands. Otherwise, undesirable changes can sometimes be made during build time, especially on projects that don’t use scons quite as reliably, as in the U-Boot build system.
• get.sh: re-generate remotes every time, on cached Git repositories, so that configuration changes in config/git/ are automatically applied when dealing with multiple versions of a given upstream project.
• release.sh: copy version files to rsrc (release source directory), otherwise an unknown version number is erroneously created. This fixes a regression caused by previous optimisation to init.sh
• xbmk: add fake config makefile args to flashprog, and pcsx-redux, to prevent ./mk -u (without additional arguments) from erroneously exiting with error status. otherwise, an error can occur in such conditions if a Makefile has not yet been created.
• rom.sh: skip running copyps1bios() on dry builds, otherwise running ./mk -d without argument will cause an error.
• tree.sh: Don’t run make-clean on dry runs (./mk -d), to prevent error conditions while building GRUB, if ./mk -d is passed without additional argument, since the latter requiires running autoconf to get a Makefile in the GRUB build system.
• get.sh: add missing check in fetch_project(); we were checking the main URL on a download, but not the backup URL.
• get.sh: stricter URL check in xbmkget(); throw an error if a URL is empty, rather than skipping to the next. If a URL is set but fails, then falling back to the next is OK (or throw an error if the backup is set, and also failed).
• get.sh: Make xbmkget always throw an error upon exiting the loop check; it was previously throwing an error if the for loop returned with zero status. Depending on the sh implementation, or changes made in the future, this could cause unpredictable buggy behaviour. Therefore, the error exit is much stricter now, and less ambiguous, to prevent future bugs, because it is imperative that execution must never continue under fault conditions. If a file or repository is successfully handled, a return (zero) occurs, otherwise the loop exits and a non-zero exit occurs.
• tree.sh: fix up copy_elf(), or specifically fix a bad for loop, because shorthand conditionals are used and the way they were used can be buggy on some sh implementations, so they are terminated more explicitly.
• xbmk: stricter handling of files on while loops, to prevent instances where execution continues under fault conditions. This prevents other, less predictable bugs in the future.
• init.sh: Hardcode XBMK_CACHE for integrity; this is a bug fix, because there’s too much that can be wrong with this being configurable, so now it is hardcoded at runtime. It was never intended to be configurable anyway.
• init.sh: check/validate version/versiondate once read, in child instances of xbmk, to further verify that they were previously set, and set correctly. This is theoretically a preventative bug fix.
• init.sh: force an error condition if the xbmk version was not read. This prevents further erroneous state within xbmk.
• init.sh: check the lock file BEFORE git init, to prevent erroneous initialisation while another xbmk parent instance is running.
• init.sh: return from xbmk child instances in set_env() instead. This is easier than the previous check, preventing the initialisation of a git repo and/or recreation of xbmktmp and xbmklocal by erroneoues parent executions of xbmk while another parent is running - the latter of which could have caused a massively unpredictable build failure, so this is also a preemptive bug fix, fixing and preventing all kinds of weird unknown bugs.
• vendor.sh: Remove _dest if it’s bad; this complements a bug fix, in the bug fix section above, that caches the extracted files and hashes them. On a subsequent run where the given file is needed, it is re-checked if the final file exists. This mitigates the possibility that corruption may have occured, under unhandled fault conditions. Therefore, this is a preventative bug fix.
• release.sh: don’t move src/docs/ to docs/ inside release archives, because otherwise ./mk -b will fail, inside release archives.
• vendor.sh: Properly verify SHA512SUM on extraction. This is performed on the actual extracted files, alongside the existing check on downloaded files. This mitigates against future fault conditions in the extraction process, thus fixing a major design flaw. This change also caches those files, thus speeding up extractions when they’re done multiple times.
• get.sh submodules: Don’t delete files recursively. Use rm -R instead of rm -Rf, on files.
• git.sh: Only create destination repo on success; don’t leave a broken cache laying around, which would otherwise break the build system under certain conditions.
• release.sh: removed an unnecessary src_dirname variable
• release.sh: delete tmp/cache from release tarballs
• inject.sh: Remove confusing path on tar creation; that is, don’t print said path, because temporary paths are printed during this, when creating tarballs. In this file, the correct path is printed at the end of the process, when handling an images tarball.
• tree.sh: only create elfdir in copy_elf(), to prevent empty directories being created where a project provides build.list, but where no actual configs are being built on a given target name.
• mrc.sh: operate on refcode in tmp area first, to prevent bad files from being saved to the final destination under fault conditions. This pertains to the change made at build time that enables GbE devices from the refcode.
• inject.sh: use subshell to speed up find_me() (this is a bug fix, because slowness is a bug)
• mk: add missing error handli for mk -f (when doing releases)
• git.sh: hard fail if git am fails (regression fix)
• git.sh: Hard fail if reset fails; allowing re-try when cloning fails, but the reset-fail scenario didn’t cause any exit at all. This is fixed now.
• init.sh: Only check XBMK_CACHE if it exists
• grub.cfg: fix trying to boot all logical volumes after unlocking an encrypted volume; this makes booting LVMs more reliable, on encrypted boot setups.
• init.sh: also allow XBMK_RELEASE=Y or =N, not just n and y, because some people use uppercase here. This is considered a bug fix, but could just as easily have been in the features section.
• init.sh: check XBMK_CACHE is a directory instead of a file.
• init.sh: run set_version before set_env, to prevent a future situation where the version is not set correctly. In general, the version should always be set as early as poessible when running xbmk.
• inject.sh: clean up tmp me file before extract; this is a preventative fix, to ensure that cross-flashing does not occur.
• lib.sh: re-add missing break in fe/fx_, that caused improper exits (or non exits) in some cases.
• singletree/elfcheck: use fx_, not fe_; this is a less strict test, to prevent certain errors under specific edge-case conditions.
• rom.sh: Safer cprom(); don’t insert special files like GRUB keymaps AFTER copying the system ROM to the final destination; do it BEFORE, instead, to ensure that bad images aren’t left in place under fault conditions.
• rom.sh: specifically check keymaps in cprom(); it previously checked whether a setup is not seauboot, which was valid, but future conditionals would break this check. the code has been changed in advance, to prevent bugs in a future revision of xbmk.
• mk: Fix bad error handling for gnu_setver; I accidentally mixed and/or in a shorthand conditional statement, which leads to buggy behaviour in various implementations of sh.
• GRUB: Mark E820 reserved on coreboot memory, to fix cbmem when running with strict /dev/mem access; otherwise, restrictions on access to memory below 1MB will cause an error when trying to access the cbmem console.
• lib.sh: set -u -e in err() in case they were set +u +e in other parts of xbmk.
• init.sh: Silence the output of git config –global
• init.sh: Run git name/email check before init; otherwise, it returns if init is already done, which could lead to an error later when building coreboot.
• lib.sh: stricter xbmk_err check in err()
• lib.sh: simplify err-not-set handling
• lib.sh err: add missing redirect to stderr
• xbmk: MUCH safer err function; make it an actual function, instead of a variable. Initially, this function was made to then check a variable, that refers to a function, and a fallback was provided for non-zero exit in case the pointed function didn’t, but it was later made to be just a simple function that exits with a message. Code equals bugs, so fewer lines of code will yield fewer bugs.
• lib.sh: Make x_ err if first arg is empty; this is a preventative bug fix, to make the build system still exit under such conditions, but it would result in an empty error message.
• lib.sh: Make err_ always exit no matter what; this is a preventative bug fix, just making the exit stricter in all cases.
• mk: re-make gnupath/ after handling crossgcc, rather than deleting files within. This makes the creation of it more reliable.
• mk: re-make gnupath/ for each cross compiler, to ensure that no stagnant build artifacts are re-used
• inject.sh: Stricter TBFW handling; don’t copy it until it has been properly padded to the correct size.
• init.sh: Re-create tmpdirs on parent instance, to ensure that they are not cluttered with old files that might cause weird bugs in the future; this is a preventative bug fix.
• init.sh: Always create xbmklocal, to prevent errors in the case when it isn’t created automatically in certain child instances, like when running a release copy of the build system, during release builds.
• lib.sh: Fix bad touch command
• inject.sh: always re-build nvmutil, so that changes to it are automatically re-applied when running the build system again. (and only build it once, for a given instance of xbmk)
• util/nvmutil: use x, not ?, for random characters, while still supporting ? for backwards compatibility. This is because ZSH errors out when providing the old characters, in some setups. Use of x is more reliable, across several implementations of sh, e.g. xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx would be a full random MAC address.
• lib.sh find_ex: explicitly create the tmp file, to prevent errors, which were nonetheless unlikely to begin with.
• init.sh: Explicitly create the xbmktmp directory (make sure to do this when creating this which is a temporary directory).
• lib.sh: add fe_ which is fx_ but err on find
• xbmk: unified execution on find commands. Handle it with a new special function that is common across the build system.
• mk: Download vendorfiles before building release, to mitigate intermittent internet connectivity during release builds, otherwise a release build could fail. This way, all downloads are done simultaneously, since downloads are the fastest part, even on a crap internet connection.
• Revert AHCI reset patch for SeaBIOS, which caused AHCI not to work in SeaBIOS on the 25.04 release; the latter was also revised, to fix this. SeaBIOS has since added a new release, which includes a fix that delays AHCI reset, to mitigate in cases where the controller isn’t ready sooner. However, this release simply reverts the AHCI reset patch for now. The AHCI reset plus delay will be present in Libreboot’s next release, after 25.06.
• lenovo/t420: Add missing text-mode configuration
• coreboot (all trees): Added patch fixing GMP build errors on modern GCC15 hostcc.
• coreboot (all trees): Fixed building of crossgcc with newer GCC15. Patches courtesy of Alper Nebi Yasak.
• coreboot (all trees): Added a patch to fix building coreboot utils with newer GCC15.
• dependencies/debian: Fixed the libusb package name for newer Debian releases, courtesy of Alper Nebi Yasak.
• SeaBIOS: Fixed malloc_fn function pointers in the romfile patch, courtesy of Alper Nebi Yasak. Fix build errors on GCC 15.
• include/lib.sh: Force use of System Python e.g. /usr/bin/python, when a python venv is detected. This prevents the build system from hanging.
• coreboot g43t_am3: Fixed the data.vbt path.
• Alper Nebi Yasak fixed the Python 2/3 detection in some edge cases when the python command is python2.
• include/lib.sh (later init.sh): Do root check first, right after the dependencies check, whereas it previously did the python check before checking for root user.
• lbmk: Don’t use TMPDIR directly, use another variable containing its value, and make sure it doesn’t get changed wrongly. This reduces the possibility of accidentally leaving old tmp files laying around.
• include/lib.sh: tar commands now return an exit with error, if a fault occurs, whereas it didn’t before, due to piped output. This is done using the x_ wrapper on tar commands, to provide error exits.
• mk: function check_project_hashes now returns an error, if the sha512sum command fails. It previously didn’t, due to piped outputs. It’s now mitigated by using x_ on piped commands, for error exits.
• Forking of lbmk parent instance to child instance isno longer handled by variables. It’s been simplified, to only be based on whether TMPDIR is set, and it’s generally more robust now in this release. The old code sometimes broke under certain edge cases.
• include/vendor.sh (later renaming to inject.sh): General code cleanup, about 100 sloc removed without reducing features.
• lbmk: Initialise PATH to a standard string if not set, on the parent instance of lbmk.
• lbmk: Use pwd instead of the PWD variable, resetting the latter safely as lbmk runs. This prevents lbmk from changing directory to an erroneous system path, if PWD wasn’t properly set for some reason. This is a preventative bug fix, because no actual issue ever occured in practise.
• Much safer Python version check at lbmk startup, using data structures that are provided universally by all Python implementations, instead of relying on the output of --version.
• Fixed T480 backlight controls, courtesy of a patch from Mate Kukri.
• Set up Python in PATH when lbmk starts, to ensure that it is always version 3. This is checked at startup.
• include/vendor.sh: Prevent double-nuke, where a given tarball already had vendor files removed prior to release.
• include/vendor.sh: Allow setting a MAC address even if vendor files aren’t needed.
• include/vendor.sh: Download utils even if vcfg is not set, in case the user is also setting a MAC address.
• util/nvmutil: Honour the INSTALL variable, if set by the user, otherwise it is set to install by default.
• util/nvmutil: Don’t do clean when running uninstall.
• util/nvmutil: Proper DESTDIR/PREFIX handling, whereas it was not handled properly at all before.
• util/nvmutil: Only set CC/CFLAGS if unset, and use sensible defaults.
• Fixed various shellcheck errors in lbmk.
• HP EliteBook 820 G2: Fixed vendor file insertion and set release=y. The insertion of Intel MRC and refcode previously didn’t pass checksum validation.
• ThinkPad T480 / OptiPlex 3050: Force power-off state upon recovery from power loss, otherwise the system always turns on as soon as a charger is plugged in. This is configured by hardcoding, due to a current lack of any option table on the T480.
• Debian dependencies: replace liblz4-tool with lz4 and liblz4-dev. The latter is also available in Debian Trixie and Sid, at this time, in addition to Debian Bookworm, so it works on all of them.
• U-Boot (x86): Fixed a bug since Swig 4.3.0 changed the syntax for its language-specific AppendOut functions. A patch from upstream was backported, and the patch is also compatible with older versions of Swig.
• In lbmk scripts, use command -v instead of which, to find the locations of certain binaries. This is a bug fix, since which is non-standard and so could break on some setups.
• Crossgcc: when building it for coreboot, fix mismatching GCC/GNAT versions so that they match, if multiple versions are present. This was done because Debain Trixie initially had GCC 14 and GNAT 13, whereas we need GNAT to build the Intel video init code on many mainboards.
• T480/T480: Disable TPM2 to mitigate a hang in SeaBIOS due to buggy drivers.
• dependencies/debian: Fix the python3-distutils package, renamed it to python3-distutils-extra, which works on bookworm and newer, but the former did not.
• git.sh: don’t initialise the livepull variable globally, reset it per target instead, to prevent some repositories from being wrongly re-cloned.
• Thinkpad T480 / Dell OptiPlex 3050: Handle FSP insertion post-release, rather than providing FSP images directly in release images. It is now handled by the ./mk inject command, copying the reference image from coreboot and splitting it upp and rebasing it, to mitigate certain technicalities of Intel’s FSP license, which otherwise permits free redistribution.
• Safer, more reliable exit when handling vendor files, because in some cases lbmk was leaving the lock file in place (erroneously).
• Safer exit when running the ./mk dependencies commands, so that lbmk is more likely to exit, because it was theoretically possible that it might not under certain edge cases.
• Disable nvme hotplug on Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro, to prevent replugging in Linux, which would otherwise lead to possible data corruption.
• T480: Fix coreboot SPD size to 512 instead of 256 (it was already auto-corrected to 512 at build time, but the original configs were 256 which is wrong).
• Add tarballs and gpg signatures to .gitignore

Another bug focus in this release was to clean up the logic of Libreboot’s build system, and fix several bugs, especially those relating to error handling.

A lot of cleanup was done on the init functions used by the build system, to initialise common variables, such as environmental variables, and temporary files and/or directories; such logic was moved to a new script called init.sh.

In descending order from the latest changes to the earliest changes:

• lib.sh: simplify setvars()
• lib.sh: simplify chkvars()
• mk: simplify main()
• get.sh: simplify fetch_project()
• get.sh: simplify try_copy()
• get.sh: tidy up bad_checksum()
• get.sh: simplify fetch_targets()
• general cleanup in get.sh and vendor.sh
• xbmk: rename xbmklocal/xbmktmp variables (shorten them)
• get.sh: consolidate printf statements
• get.sh: remove redundant printf in fetch_project()
• get.sh: remove superfluous command in try_git()
• vendor.sh: simplify fetch()
• rom.sh: simplify mkcoreboottar()
• rom.sh: rename mkvendorfiles(), which actually handles general init tasks, including the processing of vendor files where appropriate.
• rom.sh: simplify ccache handling for coreboot; make-oldconfig wasn’t needed at all, when cooking configs to enable ccache, so the cook function became much smaller and was then merged with mkvendorfiles()
• rom.sh: simplify u-boot payload handling, by using a single variable name that defines the type of U-Boot tree. This allows several other U-Boot-related checks to be greatly simplified, as they were.
• vendor.sh: add a colon at the end of a for loop
• get.sh: make xbmkget() easier to understand, by not using shorthand conditional statements in the for loop handling a repository or file download.
• init.sh: merge xbmk_lock() with xbmk_set_env()
• init.sh: set pyver from set_env() instead of the main function.
• init.sh: merge xbmk_mkdirs() with set_env()
• init.sh: only update version files on parent, to speed up xbmk
• init.sh: simplify unknown version creation, where none was created and no Git metadata exists.
• init.sh: only set xbmk version on parent instance; we only need to read what was set, on child instances. In other words, apply the principle of least privelege.
• init.sh: initialise variables AFTER path, to avoid unnecessary work inside child instances of xbmk.
• init.sh: merge create_pathdirs() with set_pyver()
• init.sh: Set python version only on parent instances of xbmk, to speed up operation of the xbmk build system.
• init.sh: xbmk_create_tmpdir() to xbmk_mkdirs()
• init.sh: move gnupath creation to create_tmpdir()
• init.sh: move PATH init to set_env()
• inject.sh: shorten the nukemode variable name
• vendor.sh: simplify mksha512sum()
• get.sh: simplify bad_checksum()
• release.sh: use x_() on find command for nuke(), so as to remove the need for a more complicated while loop inside said function.
• get.sh: move nuke() to release.sh and only run it on releases; don’t do it on normal xbmk Git. It’s only needed in the former context, because that has to do with distribution by the project, and this makes development easier. Therefore, files are only purged within the release archives, but not during development.
• release.sh: simplify prep_release_bin()
• mrc.sh: merge extract_mrc() with extract_shellball()
• get.sh: simplify tmpclone()
• get.sh: simplify nuke() by using fx_ for the file loop
• get.sh: simplify try_copy()
• get.sh: simplify fetch_submodules() config check
• get.sh: simplify fetch_submodules() by using xbmkget() for everything, instead of implementing redundant logic in the build system.
• git.sh: rename to get.sh
• rom.sh: reduce indendation in check_coreboot_utils; simplify the for loop by replacing it with a call to fx_ instead.
• release.sh: simplify release()
• release.sh: clean up the vdir after release
• release.sh: removed an unnecessary mkdir command
• release.sh: split up build_release() into smaller functions
• lib.sh: remove rmgit()
• lib.sh: remove the unnecessary mk() function
• lib.sh: move xbmkget() to git.sh
• lib.sh: move mksha512sum() to vendor.sh
• lib.sh: split up try_file() into smaller functions
• lib.sh: move _ua to try_file()
• mrc.sh: minor cleanup
• inject.sh: remove the hashfiles variable
• inject.sh: define xchanged here instead
• vendor.sh: remove check_vcfg()
• vendor.sh: simplify getvfile()
• vendor.sh: simplify setvfile()
• lib.sh: use fx_ in rmgit()
• lib.sh: split up xbmkget() into smaller functions
• inject.sh: only compile nvmutil if needed
• inject.sh: simplified serprog check
• vendor.sh: tidy up variables
• vendor.sh: split up setvfile() into smaller functions
• inject.sh: further cleanup for vendor.sh, such that all vendor-download functions are only defined in vendor.sh; this means that the Canoeboot version of the file can remain in much closer sync, with fewer differences.
• tree.sh: simplified srcdir check on make-clean
• inject.sh: split download functions to a new file, vendor.sh
• inject.sh: split up the inject functions into smaller functions for each specific task.
• xbmk: use x_ instead of err, where appropriate, because it handles globbing perfectly these days, and x_ is cleaner in most cases.
• mrc.sh: fix outdated info in a comment
• inject.sh: use direct comparison for metmp, to speed up checking so many files.
• mk: remove unnecessary line break
• mk: re-split tree logic to new file, include/tree.sh
• mk: move release functions to include/release.sh
• git.sh: use setvars() for fail variables
• init.sh: remove useless export; variables that are y/n can just be reset to n if not set to y, for simplicity.
• init.sh: export LOCALVERSION in set_env instead of set_version.
• inject.sh: simplify extract_kbc1126ec()
• inject.sh: simplified MAC address handling
• inject.sh: Simplify patch_release_roms()
• lib.sh: Remove useless command in err()
• inject.sh: rename copytb and preprom functions (make the names shorter).
• lib.sh: Simplified fx_() and removed fe_(); fe didn’t prefix x_ to a given command, but fx did. Now, it is prefix manually, for greater control, on commands that need stricter error handling, while it can be avoided on commands where strict error handling is unfeasible.
• mk: Create serprog tarballs here instead; rom.sh was simplified to use mkhelp when building actual images.
• build serprog images using fx_ defined inside mkhelper, to tidy up xbmk
• rom.sh: build serprog images with fx_, rather than implementing a specific for loop.
• inject.sh: insanely optimise the me bruteforce, by operating on files recursively via the fx_ function, instead of manually implementing a recursive file search, when bruteforce-extracting me.bin images.
• git.sh: Simplify git am handling by using the new fe_ or fx_ function, instead of making a specific while loop.
• inject.sh: remove an unused function
• init.sh: New function dx_ to execute path files; this is used instead of for loops all around xbmk, to simplify operations where the output of a file search is used as argument to a function.
• inject.sh: Further simplified FSP extraction
• lib.sh find_ex: Write sort errors to /dev/null
• lib.sh x_(): Remove warning of empty args; it’s really not required, since it’s obvious anyway in the resulting final error message.
• xbmk: Replace err() with much simpler implementation, for reliability and bug prevention.
• rom.sh: simplify mkseagrub()
• mk: simplify elfcheck()
• lib.sh: simplify singletree()
• git.sh: move singletree() to lib.sh
• inject.sh: simplify extract_intel_me_bruteforce()
• inject.sh: Remove unnecessary check
• inject.sh extract_intel_me(): reduce indentation
• inject.sh: Move FSP extraction only to extract_fsp, since that’s the only place where it’s needed.
• inject.sh: tidy up intel me handling
• inject.sh: tidy up the deguard command
• lib.sh: simplify err()
• init.sh: single-quote xbmklock in xbmk_lock()
• init.sh: define lock file in a variable instead; this makes it more flexible, because the path can be checked and then re-used nicely.
• init.sh: tidy up xbmk_child_exec(); make the command style more consistent
• lib.sh: rename errx to xmsg
• inject.sh: tidy up TBFW handling
• inject.sh: remove useless comment block
• init.sh: tidy up the python version check
• init.sh: move non-init functions to lib.sh
• init.sh: simplify dependencies handling
• rom.sh: tidy up copyps1bios()
• mk: tidy up xgccargs handling
• mk: generally removed dead code
• init.sh: tidy up pathdir creation
• mk: tidy up check_cross_compiler()
• mk: reduce indentation in check_cross_compiler()
• mk: Allow use of x_ on prefix functions
• mk: tidy up check_project_hashes() sha512sum check
• mk: simplify check_gnu_path()
• inject.sh: general code cleanup
• inject.sh: simplify extract_archive()
• inject.sh: simplified fsp extraction
• inject.sh: Remove redundant code in copy_tbfw
• xbmk: Unified local ./tmp handling
• lib.sh: redirect find errors to /dev/null to prevent clutter on the user’s terminal
• init.sh: unified handling of ./tmp
• mk: include rom.sh directly
• lib.sh: Simplify rmgit()
• lib.sh: support multiple arguments in remkdir()
• lib.sh: simplify remkdir()
• xbmk: move x_() to lib.sh
• init.sh: move setvars/err_ to lib.sh
• init.sh: Generally modularised it, moving separate tasks into separate functions, rathher than having it be one big monolith.
• vendor.sh was renamed to inject.sh, so that future changes can be in better sync between lbmk and cbmk on this file, because the cbmk version has the MAC address changer (but no vendorfile handling). In the future, this will be split so that vendor.sh exists again, containing only the vendorfile handling, and inject.sh will only handle MAC addresses.
• init.sh: Several variables were moved out of this file and elsewwhere in lbmk.
• Moved the singletree function to git.sh instead of lib.sh
• Moved the cbfs function from lib.sh to rom.sh.
• include/lib.sh: Use a more top-down function order, more clear, and it was split into an extra file init.sh that does the most basic lbmk initialisation at startup, whereas what remains in lib.sh really are generic library functions used throughout lbmk.
• include/git.sh: Removed unused crossgcc linking feature, because we don’t use it anymore (coreboot trees have their own crossgcc and never link to another these days). Libreboot used to have many more coreboot trees, some of which re-used crossgcc from another tree. Similarly, the accompanying variable tree_depend is no longer handled. The xtree variable is still handled, because projects like U-Boot use that to configure crossgcc.
• include/vendor.sh: Removed unnecessary check against the ROM image size. Generally simplified the processing of release images.
• include/git.sh`: Removed many redundant functions, merging several of them.
• include/mrc.sh: Fixed a bad print, making proper use of a string inside a printf statement.
• Simplified many file checks in lbmk, by using the e function.
• Removed a bunch of useless eval commands in general, throughout lbmk, making the code much cleaner.
• lbmk: the x_ function is now used much more aggressively, for error handling, simplifying error handling in lbmk overall.
• mk main script: Merged the trees script with it, so now it’s all one script. The mk script is now the only executable script in lbmk.
• mk (main script): The roms command is removed (legacy / obsolete).
• The version/versiondate files are now dotfiles, to hide during operation.
• include/lib.sh: Hardcoded projectname/projectsite variables, instead of storing them in a file.
• trees script: Unified handling of flags (same string used in error output), to ensure that error(usage) messages always match.
• trees script (later merged into mk): Removed a lot of old bloat.
• util/nvmutil: Make the checksum word position a define. Generally cleaned up a lot of code to make it clearer for the reader. Added more verbose messages to the user, confirming things such as how much was read or written on the user’s file system. Various miscallaneous bug fixes (edge cases that were unlikely to ever be triggered).
• util/nvmutil: More efficient use of memory when handling files.
• util/nvmutil: Much cleaner handling of user input.
• `util/nvmutil: More granular MAC address parsing errors, easy for debugging.
• util/nvmutil: Make the Gbe Checksum a define, for readibility.
• util/nvmutil: Obey the 79-character-per-line limit, as per lbmk coding style.
• util/nvmutil: Tidied up several pledge calls
• Removed use of several unnecessary subshells and eval statements in lbmk.
• trees: Later, the GCC/GNAT matching feature was rewritten to work both ways, where an older GCC was matched to GNAT and vice versa, whereas it previously only went one way. gcc and gnat are manipulated in PATH to ensure that the user has a consistent version of both.
• path.sh later merged into the trees script (which later merged into the main mk script). This path.sh is what contained the first implementation of the GNAT/GCC version matching feature.
• path.sh: Remove unnecessary shebang, and the same on other include/ scripts. NOTE: path.sh was later merged into lib.sh, which then became split into init.sh in later changes (see above).
• Removed legacy build system commands e.g. ./build and ./update; now only the newer ./mk commands are supported. This and the change below was briefly reverted, for the 20241206 revisions, but then re-introduced.
• Removed the deprecated ./vendor command; now only ./mk commands are used. The ./mk -d coreboot target commands are used, for downloading vendor files.
• Removed unused patch that was for the original deguard implementation, prior to Mate Kukri’s re-write of it.

This is about 650 changes.

When certain bugs are found, releases may be re-built and re-uploaded. When this happens, the original release is replaced with a revision release.

Revisions are numbered; for example, the first post-release revision is rev1.

No revisions, thus far. The original 25.06 release is the current revision, so it could be considered rev0 (revision zero).

This release was built on the latest Debian 12.10 Bookworm release, as of this day. It was also build-tested successfully on the latest Arch Linux updates as of 26 June 2025.
