                            INSTALLATION NOTES
================================================================================
WARNING:  It is very important to follow these instructions as they are written.
Failure to update using the proper procedure may cause damage to your system.

Firmware flash utility: iFlash32_V14_0_Build12

1.User can update BIOS flash image via either one of the follow methods...
  A. UEFI iFlash32

    1.) Copy the entire contents of the Package file to the HDD or USB flash drive
        (All of the files must reside in the same directory)
    2.) Boot to UEFI Shell, then change the Shell to the mapped device file system
        Example: Shell> fs0: (or fs1:)
    3.) Run Startup.nsh for update BIOS (ME and FD included), BMC, and FRUSDR all-together
		or select one of the folllowing options to upgrade components independently
		updALL.nsh for BIOS, ME and FD region upgrades only
        updBIOS.nsh, updME.nsh and updFD.nsh for each region upgrade respectively
		updBMC.nsh to update BMC only
        updFRUSDR.nsh to update the FRUSDR only
        
    4.) Reboot system after the update is completed
    5.) Do *NOT* interrupt the BIOS POST during the first boot

2.BIOS update under recovery mode as below methods
  The USB media is necessary for primary BIOS upgrade and must contain the following
  files under the root directory, you can capture all the ingredients from BIOS
  release package:
  
    Copy the entire contents of the Package file to the HDD or USB flash drive
    (All of the files must reside in the same directory)

  A: USB media inserted AFTER performing a recovery boot
    1.) Under Shell, type "map -r" to map all Drives/USB devices
    2.) Change the Shell to the mapped USB device
        Example: Shell> fs0: (or fs1:)
    3.) Execute the Startup.nsh scripts, wait for the update to complete
    4.) Power OFF the system, and revert the recovery jumper position back 
        to "normal operation"
    5.) Power ON the system
    6.) Do *NOT* interrupt the BIOS POST during the first boot

  B: USB media inserted PRIOR performing a recovery boot
    1.) Power ON the system, it will boot automatically into EFI Shell
        to invoke the Startup.nsh script
    2.) After the update is completed, there will be a message displayed that the 
        "ME Firmware and BIOS updates have completed" indicating the recovery process 
        is finished. Then Power OFF the system, switch the recovery jumper back to 
        normal operation, and finally, Power ON the system
    3.) Do *NOT* interrupt the BIOS POST during the first boot  

Notes: If to update backup BIOS region, you need to customize the iflash32 update
       scripts and add "UpdateBackupBios" parameter
Notes: Setup variable structure has been changed in E5-2600V4 BIOS. If downgrading E5-2600V4 BIOS
       to lower versions or E5-2600V3 BIOS, please add 'UpdateNvram' parameter in BIOS Recovery Mode.
Note:  Removed 'UpdateNvram' support for iflash32 tool for security reason.
Note:  If User customizes ITK capsule and BIOS admin password is set, BIOS SMI handler requires 
       extra parameter of "password" in iFlash32 mail box: e.g. iFlash32.efi -u Bios.cap Password=intel@123 -ni, 
       no requirement when BIOS admin password is not set or standard BIOS release capsule is used.
Note: If BIOS version on SUT is older than R01.01.0009, then please update to R01.01.0009 firstly for further update.
Note: If downgrade to BIOS version R01.01.0008 or older, please switch to Recovery Mode if online method is used.

================================================================================
                        BIOS RECOVERY INSTRUCTIONS
================================================================================
The Recovery process can be initiated by setting the recovery jumper
(called BIOS Recovery Boot Jumper)

A BIOS recovery can be accomplished from the backup BIOS region.

BIOS starts the recovery process by first loading and booting to the recovery image
from backup BIOS region. This process takes place before any video or console is
available. Once the system boots to recovery image.

The following steps demonstrate this recovery process:
   1.  Power OFF the system
   2.  Switch the recovery jumper. Details regarding the jumper ID and location
       can be obtained from the Server Board TPS for that Platform
   3.  Power ON the system
   4.  The BIOS POST screen will appear displaying the progress and the system
       will automatically boot to the EFI SHELL
   5.  Follow the BIOS recovery update manual for BIOS recovery.


================================================================================

!!!!! Please make sure AC Power is plugged in during the update !!!!!
!!!!! AC Power failure during the update may, unrecoverably, damage your system !!!!!

User can update ME image via either of the follow methods:

    1.) Copy the entire contents of the Package file to the HDD or USB flash drive
        (All of the files must reside in the same directory)
    2.) Boot to UEFI Shell, then change the Shell to mapped device file system
        Example: Shell> fs0: (or fs1:)
    3.) Use updME.nsh and updFD.nsh for ME and FD FW upgrade
    4.) Reboot system after the update is completed
    
================================================================================
			IMPORTANT NOTICE
================================================================================
1. The BIOS R01.01.0002 auto scripts will force to update both normal and backup
   BIOS region since security revision was updated, once user upgrade BIOS to
   R01.01.0002, it will prevent BIOS downgrade to previous version that with low
   security revision, user can use BIOS recovery mode for BIOS downgrade
2. The BIOS R01.01.0003 included security fix and security revision upgrade,
   refer to item #1
3. If doing online BIOS update to R01.01.0003, user must use the auto scripts
   enabled in the release package which will force update BIOS NVRAM and backup
   region
4. BIOS R01.01.0004 requires update of NVRAM and backup region
5. BIOS R01.01.0009 and R01.01.0011 will enable UEFI Secure Boot and include below limitations:
    - Please read "BIOS UEFI SECURE BOOT IMPACT AND MITIGATION METHOD" section in this
      BIOS release notes
    - All customer settings saved in BIOS NVRAM will be lost after new BIOS upgrade.
    - BIOS downgrade is not allowed if user has enabled BIOS secure boot. All customer
      setting will be lost also if downgrade to previous BIOS release.
    - Backup BIOS region is also required to be updated to prevent recovery failure
      please use release package to update BIOS.
    - There is downgrade hang risk if you don't follow above rules.
    - Further BIOS release will not suffer from these side effects as the NVRAM region
      is formatted as authenticated variable storage
6. System will hang 0xbf after downgrading BIOS from R01.01.0013(E5-2600V4 code tree) to R01.01.0011/R01.01.0009(E5-2600V3 code tree) randomly.
    -Set SUT to recovery mode to power on, then set it back to normal boot to see whether it is recovered.
7. BIOS R01.01.0013 The iFlash32 utility parameter of 'UpdateNvram' is not supported under Normal Mode, however it is only supported under Recovery Mode.
8. BIOS R01.01.0015 Design change from D076 for <PCIe correctable error threshold> to change default setting from <All> to <10>. 
              Need to press <F9> to see the new default string.
9. BIOS R01.01.0015 Suggest to press 'F9' to load default if using the 'IOU Non-posted prefetch control' setup options in the first time.
10.BIOS R01.01.0016 BIOS had added command line support to clean ITK customization settings with below notes. 
    1) Require iflash32 utility updated (>=V13.1 Build 8) to support command line. 
    2) Run ¡®iflash32 -ccs' to clear ITK customization setting. After reboot to BIOS setup, need to press F9 to load default to see the clear operation.
11. If updating BIOS to R01.01.0013 to R01.01.0016 version, it is required to 'load default' to make the new setup option 'Snooped Response Wait Time for Posted Prefetch' work.
12. Security revision upgrade on R01.01.0018, it will prevent BIOS downgrade via normal mode to previous version that with lower security revision, user can use BIOS recovery mode for BIOS downgrade
13. The BIOS R01.01.0018 included security fix and security revision upgrade.
    Once user upgrade BIOS to R01.01.0018, it will prevent BIOS downgrade to previous version that with low security revision, user can use BIOS recovery mode for BIOS downgrade
14. Security revision upgrade on R01.01.020, it will prevent BIOS downgrade via normal mode to previous version that with lower security revision, user can use BIOS recovery mode for BIOS downgrade
15. iFlash32 need to upgrade to latest revision v14.0 build10 from BIOS R01.01.020
16. Use I/O Quick Data(also known as CBDMA) feature to access PCIe MMIO space, such as NTB or PCIe bridge, user may observe I/O performance drop during stress test.
    The reason is under debug, the workaround is to disable Relax Ordering feature.
17 iFlash32 need to upgrade to latest revision v14.0 build11 or later version if user want to downgrade BIOS from BIOS D0181 to earlier version
18. Old revision Iflash32 ,syscfg ,OFU utility, SELViewer, Sysinfo will lead to system hang on R0021 or further BIOS release. These utilities need to upgrade to latest revision iFlash32_V14_0_Build11, Syscfg_V14_0_Build15, OFU_V14_0_Build14, SELViewer_v14_0_Build18, Sysinfo_V14_0_Build18. 
19. Security revision upgrade on R01.01.0024 it will prevent BIOS downgrade via normal mode to previous version that with lower security revision, user can use BIOS recovery mode for BIOS downgrade
20. 19. Security revision upgrade on R01.01.0027 it will prevent BIOS downgrade via normal mode to previous version that with lower security revision, user can use BIOS recovery mode for BIOS downgrade

================================================================================
     BIOS UEFI SECURE BOOT IMPACT AND MITIGATION METHOD
=================================================================================
1. Customer Setting Loss Issue and Mitigation Method
    When user upgrades BIOS with secure boot feature, the NVRAM will be automatically
  formatted as authenticated variable physical storage. However, all previous customer
  settings storage in NVRAM will be lost even if user does not enable UEFI secure boot
  feature.
    Users can take the follow recipe to save and restore their settings based on
  the actual NVRAM usage if they wish to upgrade or downgrade between BIOS with or
  without secure boot feature.
    Supposing customer requires to save & restore their specific NVRAM named 'var':
  Steps:
  1. Prepare FAT partition USB key (or HDD).
  2. Boot to EFI shell.
  3. Check the file system mapping (e.g. fs0:) of the USB key with 'map -r' command.
  4. Use 'dmpstore var -s fs0:\var.bin' to save the variable to the physical file.
  5. Perform BIOS update and reboot system.
  6. Boot to EFI shell.
  7. Use 'dmpstore var -l fs0:\var.bin' to restore the variable.
  8. Reboot the system if the customer setting requires reboot to take effect.

Notes:
  1. Immediate reboot after BIOS update is mandatory. Or the restore operation will
     not take effect.
  2. Customers can repeat step 4 and step 7 for several times if they need to save & restore
     multiple NVRAM variables.
  3. Most of BIOS customer settings by SysCfg can also be restored in this way. Customers
     can follow previous step1~8 by substituting 'Setup' for 'var' in the sample.
  4. For BIOS downgrade case, step7 cannot be used to restore authenticate variables
     (e.g. PK, KEK, DB, DBX) to non-authenticated NVRAM storage

2. Recovery Mode Failure
   There is known bug that it cannot POST successfully with authenticated NVRAM storage.
   This will cause platform recovery failure and permanent deny of service (PDOS) if the
   primary BIOS region gets corrupted for some reason. It is required to update backup BIOS
   region when upgrade BIOS capsule with secure boot feature.
Notes:
  For downgrade case, user is not required to update backup BIOS region as new
  BIOS with secure boot feature can handle NVRAM with old storage format:
  it will format it to new authenticated variable storage automatically.
  However, care must be taken when downgrading BIOS in recovery mode: After flashing
  BIOS without secure boot feature, user should restore recovery HW jumper immediately
  before platform reset.If platforms reset occurs before restoring recovery HW jumper,
  the backup BIOS will once again format NVRAM to new storage format, which will cause
  newly flashed BIOS (without secure boot feature) POST failure after user restores
  recovery HW jumper.

Notes:
  As the code base has been changed due to E5-2600V4 support, R01.01.0009 to 
  R01.01.0012 are not shown in the E5-2600V4 aware BIOS release notes, 
  but the related fix is added. 

E5-2600V3: 
  R001 - R008 ==> R009, R010, R011, R012 ==> Discontinue for E5-2600V3 alone code base
     
E5-2600V3 + E5-2600V4:
  R001 - R008 ==> D001 - D0070 (Contains the fix in R009 to R012) ==> R013, R014, ...
