Add section header parsing and use it in the mk-payload step
This completes the improvements to the ELF file parsing code. We can
now parse section headers too, across all 4 combinations of word size
and endianness. I had hoped to completely remove the use of htonl
until I found it in cbfs_image.c. That's a battle for another day.
There's now a handy macro to create magic numbers in host byte order.
I'm using it for all the PAYLOAD_SEGMENT_* constants and maybe
we can use it for the others too, but this is sensitive code and
I'd rather change one thing at a time.
To maximize the ease of use for users, elf parsing is accomplished with
just one function:
int
elf_headers(const struct buffer *pinput,
Elf64_Ehdr *ehdr,
Elf64_Phdr **pphdr,
Elf64_Shdr **pshdr)
which requires the ehdr and pphdr pointers to be non-NULL, but allows
the pshdr to be NULL. If pshdr is NULL, the code will not try to read
in section headers.
To satisfy our powerful scripts, I had to remove the ^M from an unrelated
microcode file.
BUG=None
TEST=Build a peppy image (known to boot) with old and new versions and verify they are bit-for-bit the same. This was also fully tested across all chromebooks for building and booting and running chromeos.
BRANCH=None
