Penguin Computing is also working with Gigabyte and Cavium to deliver their
Cavium ThunderX boards in our products (under the name "Valkre"
product
line) and would also like to help.
I've got the several other Gigabyte motherboards with EFI BIOS in my lab
(MT70-HD0, MT30-GS0 and others)

Please CC me and perhaps we can work together. I'll put you in touch with
my lab engineers who can also help.
Penguin Computing has supported HPA in the past and would like to continue
to do so.
