2021-05-19tests: improve code coverage supportPaul Fagerburg
Fix the exclusion path for lcov; it should exclude the directory with source code, not object files. Use the COV environment variable to * control whether we build for coverage or not * select the output directory Add a separate target for generating the report, so we can get a report for all of the tests together or just a single test. Add documentation.

2019-10-21Documentation: Add proposal for a comprehensive image assembly stagePatrick Georgi
I originally put up this document for discussion in 2015 (mailing list: https://mail.coreboot.org/hyperkitty/list/coreboot@coreboot.org/message/FXX4V2OSXAQC4B2VUENSFZEWRPPOVRH2/) (doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o2bFl5HCHDFPccQsOwa-75A8TWojjFiGK3r0yeIc7Vo/edit) It may be time to revisit the way we define our image layouts now that there are new fmap schemes for new vboot uses. The approach outlined in this document may or may not be the right one, but it's something we have, so let's discuss. Compared to the doc, this will * be updated (things changed in the last 3.5 yearws) * integrate feedback to the doc and on the mailing list back then Change-Id: Ib40d286e2c9b817f55e58ecc5c9bc8b832ac5783 Signed-off-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@google.com> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/32687 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Stefan Reinauer <stefan.reinauer@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Arthur Heymans <arthur@aheymans.xyz>
