Linaro releases monthly binary images of UEFI, based on the Tianocore project.

Upstream version

The Linaro UEFI tree is based on the following upstream versions of code from Tianocore:

  • edk2 at git commit 8de84d4242215252af9d2afecd45e2419689ee5f
  • OpenPlatformPkg at git commit 4e9cfc934508ca95df3ae51e63a1681fc41d345b

The latest version of the EDK2 code contains the upstream code augmented with platform support via OpenPlatformPkg.
It additionally contains a bunch of cherry-picked patches to bring it up to parity with e3b76f3b5e80df1219fb4adf0199b9606e84b8e7.
