	A new CBFS API is introduced to allow making CBFS access easier for providing multiple CBFS sources. That is achieved by decoupling the cbfs source from a CBFS file. A CBFS source is described by a descriptor. It contains the necessary properties for walking a CBFS to locate a file. The CBFS file is then decoupled from the CBFS descriptor in that it's no longer needed to access the contents of the file. All of this is accomplished using the regions infrastructure by repsenting CBFS sources and files as region_devices. Because region_devices can be chained together forming subregions this allows one to decouple a CBFS source from a file. This also allows one to provide CBFS files that came from other sources for payload and/or stage loading. The program loading takes advantage of those very properties by allowing multiple sources for locating a program. Because of this we can reduce the overhead of loading programs because it's all done in the common code paths. Only locating the program is per source.

2015-05-26	coreboot: introduce boot_device	Aaron Durbin
	The boot_device is a region_device that represents the device from which coreboot retrieves and boots its stages. The existing cbfs implementations use the boot_device as the intermediary for accessing the CBFS region. Also, there's currently only support for a read-only view of the boot_device. i.e. one cannot write to the boot_device using this view. However, a writable boot_device could be added in the future.

2015-05-21	Remove address from GPLv2 headers	Patrick Georgi
	As per discussion with lawyers[tm], it's not a good idea to shorten the license header too much - not for legal reasons but because there are tools that look for them, and giving them a standard pattern simplifies things. However, we got confirmation that we don't have to update every file ever added to coreboot whenever the FSF gets a new lease, but can drop the address instead. util/kconfig is excluded because that's imported code that we may want to synchronize every now and then. $ find * -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA[, ]02110-1301[, ]USA:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Suite 500, Boston, MA 02110-1335, USA:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find * -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place[-, ]Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307[, ]USA:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find * -type f -a \! -name \.patch \ -a \! -name \_shipped \ -a \! -name LICENSE_GPL \ -a \! -name LGPL.txt \ -a \! -name COPYING \ -a \! -name DISCLAIMER \ -exec sed -i "/Foundation, Inc./ N;s:Foundation, Inc.* USA\.* *:Foundation, Inc. :;s:Foundation, Inc. $:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + Change-Id: Icc968a5a5f3a5df8d32b940f9cdb35350654bef9 Signed-off-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@chromium.org> Reviewed-on: http://review.coreboot.org/9233 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) Reviewed-by: Vladimir Serbinenko <phcoder@gmail.com>
2015-04-18	riscv: use new-style CBFS header lookup	Patrick Georgi
	We recently restructured where the CBFS header is stored and how it is looked up, with less magic. The RISC-V port didn't get the memo, so have it follow the pack now.

2014-12-01	Add UCB RISCV support for architecture, soc, and emulation mainboard..	Ronald G. Minnich
	Works in the RISCV version of QEMU. Note that the lzmadecode is so unclean that it needs a lot of work. A cleanup is in progress. We decided in Prague to do this as one thing, because it forms a nice case study of the bare minimum you need to add to get a new architecture going in qemu.
