Reproducible Coreboot

" write_page "

Reproducible builds enable anyone to reproduce bit by bit identical binary packages from a given source, si that anyone can verify that a given binary derived from the source it was said to be derived. There is a lot more information about reproducible builds on the Debian wiki and on https://reproducible.debian.net.
" -write_page " Reproducible Coreboot is an effort to apply this to coreboot. Thus each coreboot.rom is build twice, with a few varitations added and then those two ROMs are compared using debbindiff. Please note that more variations are to be expected in the wild.

" +write_page " Reproducible Coreboot is an effort to apply this to coreboot. Thus each coreboot.rom is build twice, with a few varitations added and then those two ROMs are compared using debbindiff. Please note that the toolchain is not varied at all and the rebuild happens on exactly the same system and so more variations are to be expected in the wild.

There is a monthly ru jenkins job to test the master branch of coreboot.git, but as this is brand new, this job is currently triggered more often. This job runs reproducible_coreboot.sh which is solely responsible for creating this page. Please join #debian-reproducible (on irc.oftc.net) to request job runs whenever sensible. Patches are very much welcome!

These tests were last run on $DATE for version ${COREBOOT_VERSION}.
