ec VS edk2

You mean this?: https://github.com/system76/ec/blob/930f16b230a1574abddc1cf313c32f1a90c994e9/src/board/system76/lemp11/board.mk

Inexplicably, the built-in curves have a 5 second delay for gazelle. This means, if your chip goes turbo, it will take 5 seconds before the fan will react. By that time, the temperature will have already spiked to 80-90 C. https://github.com/system76/ec/blob/2a8befc195cd821232d2934593d29337e4eddb3e/src/board/system76/gaze17-3060/board.mk

You can change the keyboard layout but not sure if you can replace the physical keyboard easily. https://github.com/system76/ec/blob/master/doc/keyboard-layout-customization.md

If you're wanting to try that out, it's very easy by editing the numbers within the FAN_POINT lines of this file (for your model): https://github.com/system76/ec/blob/master/src/board/system76/gaze17-3060/board.mk

I have the ec repo cloned into a sibling dir. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for the help!

If it is identical to the Clevo that System76 uses then it may be possible to use their firmware.

This bit of documentation is also helpful, recommends getting the entire firmware-open stack and checking out the current firmware release that you're running and use that as a base for your modifications. This is important because firmware regressions are not uncommon and they often take some time before they are resolved.

As for the tracking issue, you want #213. #256 is my proposal for persisting options through power loss.

Now I knew I could flash my Lemur Pro with the “normal” sys76 firmware, I dug into the, script to work out what it was doing. It appears to consist of two parts: building the coreboot firmware (coreboot.rom, which I believe is renamed later in the script to firmware.rom) and building the ec firmware (ec.rom) <<< the ec is the bit I built/flashed in isolation for the keyboard changes. From what I’ve read about coreboot, it initially turns the system on and then delivers a package which contains the rest of the instructions to get the system started. The package that sys76 delivers with coreboot appears to be EDKII.
