===========================================================================================
                             IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES
===========================================================================================
WARNING:
A. It is important to follow the flash option provided in the batch file (BIOS_efi64.nsh/
   ME_efi64.nsh for UEFI Shell, BIOS_win64.cmd/ME_win64.cmd for Windows 64 bits, 
   BIOS_lnx64.sh/ME_lnx64.sh for Linux 64 bits). 
   Using incorrect flash option to flash BIOS may cause damage to your system.

1. Burn S5XH3AXX.HXX.BIN via fixture.

2. For UEFI Shell environment, follow below steps to update BIOS:
   (1) Unzip the release package to the same folder in a HDD or USB Flash Drive.
   (2) Insert the USB Flash Drive or HDD mentioned in step (1).
   (3) Power on the system and boot into "Build-in EFI Shell"
   (4) Execute batch file BIOS_efi64.nsh to update BIOS.
   (5) Execute batch file ME_efi64.nsh to update ME FW.
   (6) After the update finished, reboot the system, the new BIOS/ME FW runs.
 
3. For x64 Windows environment, follow below steps to update BIOS:
   (1) Power on the system and boot into Windows OS.
   (2) Unzip the release package to the same folder in the HDD.
   (3) Open Command Prompt, change to the folder with release package located.
   (4) Execute batch file BIOS_win64.cmd to update BIOS.
   (5) Execute batch file ME_win64.cmd to update ME FW.
   (6) After the update finished, reboot the system, the new BIOS/ME FW runs.
   
4. For x64 Linux environment, follow below steps to update BIOS:
   (1) Power on the system and boot into Linux OS.
   (2) Unzip the release package to the same folder in the HDD.
   (3) Open Terminal, change to the folder with release package located.
   (4) Type "chmod -R 777 *" to change privilege for all files and folders.
   (5) Execute batch file BIOS_lnx64.sh to update BIOS.
   (6) Execute batch file ME_lnx64.sh to update ME FW.
   (7) After the update finished, reboot the system, the new BIOS/ME FW runs.
   
Note:
- BIOS_efi64.nsh/BIOS_win64.cmd/BIOS_lnx64.sh updates BIOS region only.
- ME_efi64.nsh/ME_win64.cmd/ME_lnx64.sh updates non-BIOS regions only.

- BIOS update script included '/N' by default to update NVRAM region, please note that this parameter will clear all BIOS Setup setting,
  this is for avoid NV structure be changed after RC/Module updated or other BIOS NVRAM code change.

- Default parameter in update script would keep current setting. If you would like to load default instead, 
  you can use following command to do so:
   
   <AFU> <ROM File> /N /CLRCFG

  Note: <AFU> would be ./afulnx64/Afulnx_64 for Linux x64, afuefi64\AfuEfix64.efi for UEFI Shell or 
        afuwin64\afuwinx64.exe for Windows x64.

- This BIOS already enable Security Flash feature, please make sure the BIOS image signed when you want upgrade it.
  Or it will report security check fail then upgrade fail.
- After 3A01, BIOS will into PVT phase, some option default value will change by followed SI Standard Spec, please notice this.
- BIOS supported multi-default setting, so BIOS default setting may be changed during POST and need reset one more time,
  leading POST will not present message "0xA104: CMOS/NVRAM configuration" after CMOS cleared. Related CMOS cleared infomation can 
  be got from system event log.
- PMem relevant essential configuration requirement:
  1. Ensuring capacity, firmware version, and the stepping of PMem are compatible.
  2. PMem firmware version should correspond with the BKC version.
  3. The quantity of PMem should follow Intel's instructions.
     (Please refer to BPS POR validation matrix for ICX[Whitley] .)
  4. Before BIOS upgrading, please ensure the PMem firmware version is up to date for the sake of corresponding with the BKC requirement.
  5. As for the operating mode and the features, SKU of each PMem in systems should be identical.
     The system will operate the read-only mode when the installation of incompatible SKUs being detected. 
     Under this situation, PMem and the capacity relevant adjustment is not permitted.
- According to Intel datasheet "#556488 – Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory Module Firmware Interface Specification, Revision 1.13",
  if Revision Number(RN) of PMem firmware is updated, PMem cannot be downgraded to a FW version whose RN is less than present version.

  | Setup menu  |      HW design      |
  +-------------+---------------------+
  |  Port 1X    | IIO PCIe root port0 |

  |  Port 4X    | IIO PCIe root port2 |
  |  Port 5X    | IIO PCIe root port3 |
  +-----------------------------------+
- Because SPS 04.04.01.023.0 layout is different from 04.02.01.021.0, 
  AFU tool does not support to update SPS between 4.2 and 4.4.
- Because SPS 04.04.01.108.0 layout is different from 04.04.01.023.0, 
  AFU tool does not support to update SPS between 023 and 108.
- After updating SPS to 4.4.1.108.0, please execute DC or AC to apply your new SPS settings.
  If user executes warm boot or cold boot reset command, system will hang on POST code 0xFF.
- After updating SPS to 4.4.2.18.0, please execute DC or AC to apply your new SPS settings.
  If user executes warm boot or cold boot reset command, system will hang on POST code 0xFF.
- BIOS S5XH3A04.H00 (or later) uses production microcode and disable DCI and Delayed Authentication Mode,
  it will cause previous BIOS included debug microcode hang at POST code 0xFF.
  Please use WebUI/Yafuflash to upgrade/downgrade BIOS and ME if user would like to upgrade/downgrade BIOS between S5XH3A01.H00 and S5XH3A04.H00 (or later).
- BIOS S5XH3A04.H00 changed to production settings, BIOS may not update ME via AFU if system use ES CPU.
  Please make sure all your HW configuration is QS or MP version.
- Since BIOS S5XH3A12.H00 changed ME layout, it is expected that AFU tool prompts error message "" when user update ME.
  Please update BIOS S5XH3A12.H00 from S5XH3A11.H00 or later version via WebUI or Yafuflash to update BIOS and ME.
- There is a flaw in the older version of grub2, prior to version 2.06.
  An attacker may use the GRUB 2 flaw to hijack and tamper the GRUB verification process.
  This flaw also allows the bypass of Secure Boot protections.
  To prevent this security vulnerability, BIOS had updated the DBX of the secure boot.
  However, when secure boot is enabled, the improvement will block booting process if OS kernel and related package does not meet security specification.
  Please follow OS vendor's remediation to update the kernel and package before enabling secure boot under BIOS.

===========================================================================================
                             KNOWN ISSUES/WORKAROUNDS
===========================================================================================  
- Some specific BIOS knobs cannot be kept by PLDM.
  Confirmed with AMI, current PLDM module needs to add parameter "/mlang:x-UEFI-CRB,x-UEFI-AMI".
  Because some specific BIOS knobs settings need to use it.
  To keep PLDM feature workable, add parameter "/mlang:x-UEFI-CRB,x-UEFI-AMI" to script files.
  S5XH3A01.H00 and later: afuefi64\AfuEfix64.efi 3A01.BIN /P /B /N /K /L /mlang:x-UEFI-CRB,x-UEFI-AMI

- Regarding previous description, the following message user will see it during updating BIOS region.
  "Preserve will happen only for the default mapping languages x-AMI and x-UEFI-AMI, Do you want to proceed?"
  Please enter "Y" to continue programming process.

- BIOS S5XH3A08.H00 implements to compress some data in BIOS current setting, it will cause these BIOS settings cannot be preserved
  between old BIOS (without compression) and new BIOS (with compression).
  Please add parameter "/RLC:JE" to script files, if user would like to upgrade/downgrade BIOS between old BIOS (without compression) and new BIOS (with compression).
  
- Since BIOS S5XH3A12.H00 changed layout, it is expected that AFU tool prompts error message when user update.
  Please update BIOS S5XH3A12.H00(or later) from S5XH3A11.H00(or previous) via WebUI or Yafuflash to update.

- Under VMWare OS, System cannot successfully boot into OS when a PS2-to-USB cable (KVM connector) is plugged to system.
