  There are no non-free blobs on the HiKey IIRC. You can build ATF, EDK2, U-boot, etc all from source code.

    I've found these blobs: - Watch Dog Driver - Flash Driver - SnpPV600 - MCU

      Surely upstream U-Boot does not contain such blobs. Is there a reason you specifically want coreboot?

        I just saw that u-boot supports this board, but it still needs the mcuimage.bin blob. The u-boot code base may be easier to understand than edk2, and the job can be easier.

        I think what coreboot can do better than other firmware projects is that it can use many customized payloads, a mature and simplified code base, features like cbmem for debugging and logging, etc.
