The Intel® Firmware Support Package (Intel® FSP) is a binary module that provides key programming information for initializing Intel® silicon. It allows for the efficient incorporation of processor and chipset initialization code into various bootloader frameworks, such as EFI Development Kit II (EDK II), coreboot, and Intel® Slim Bootloader (Intel® SBL), without exposing Intel's intellectual property (IP). The Intel® FSP encapsulates the complexity of silicon initialization, making it easier to integrate into custom boot solutions.

Key Features:

  • Binary Module: Intel® FSP is a pre-compiled binary that encapsulates Intel's silicon initialization code.
  • Portability: It offers a simpler and more portable interface compared to traditional initialization code.
  • Customization: Configuration parameters can be customized to meet the specific needs of the target platform.
  • Compatibility: Can be integrated into various bootloaders and embedded operating systems.
