+# Intel Ice Lake coreboot development
+
+## Introduction
+
+This document captures the coreboot development strategy for Intel SoC named Ice lake.
+
+The Ice Lake processor family is the next generation Intel® Core processor family.
+These processors are built using Intel's 10 nm+ process.
+
+* [What is Ice Lake?](https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/design/products-and-solutions/processors-and-chipsets/ice-lake/overview.html)
+
+## Development Strategy
+
+Like any other Intel SoC, Ice Lake coreboot development is also based on "Intel common code development model".
+
+1. Intel develops initial Firmware code for Ice Lake SoC.
+
+2. Additionally provides Firmware code support for Intel Reference Platform (RVP), known as Ice lake RVP with same SoC.
+   ```eval_rst
+   :doc:`../../../mainboard/intel/icelake_rvp.md`
+   ```
+
+3. OEMs to design based on reference platform and make use of mainboard sample code. Dragonegg is Ice Lake based mainboard developed by Google
+   ```eval_rst
+   :doc:`../../../mainboard/google/dragonegg.md`
+   ```
+
+### Summary:
+* SoC is Ice Lake.
+* Reference platform is icelake_rvp.
+* OEM board is Dragonegg.
+
+## Create coreboot Image
+
+1. Clone latest coreboot code as below
+```bash
+$ git clone https://review.coreboot.org/coreboot.git
+```
+
+2. Place blobs (ucode, me.bin and FSP packages) in appropriate locations
+
+Note:
+Consider the fact that ucode and ME kit for Ice Lake SoC will be available from Intel VIP site.
+After product launch, FSP binary will be available externally as any other program.
+
+3. Create coreboot .config
+
+4. Build toolchain
+```bash
+CPUS=$(nproc--ignore=1)  make  crossgcc-i386  iasl
+```
+
+5. Build image
+```bash
+$ make # the image is generated as build/coreboot.rom
+```
+
+## Flashing coreboot
+
+Flashing mechanism might be different between Intel RVP (Reference Validation Platform) and Chromebooks:
+
+* Make use of dediprog while flashing coreboot image on Intel-RVP
+* For Chromebook related platform like dragonegg, one can flash via servo:
+
+```bash
+   $ dut-control spi2_vref:pp3300 spi2_buf_en:on spi2_buf_on_flex_en:on warm_reset:on
+   $ sudo flashrom -n -p ft2232_spi:type=servo-v2 -w <bios_image>
+   $ dut-control spi2_vref:off spi2_buf_en:off spi2_buf_on_flex_en:off warm_reset:off
+```
