2016-03-05lz4_wrapper: Use __asm__ rather than asm.Vladimir Serbinenko
__asm__ is more robust to compilation flags. Change-Id: Ic7ca6e38ddd439dcfc4a62ef272ecea62416b4be Signed-off-by: Vladimir Serbinenko <phcoder@gmail.com> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/13905 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) Reviewed-by: Julius Werner <jwerner@chromium.org>

2016-02-24commonlib/lz4_wrapper: Use correct casts to ensure valid calculationsPaul Menzel
Commit 09f2921b (cbfs: Add LZ4 in-place decompression support for pre-RAM stages) breaks building cbfstool with gcc (Debian 4.9.2-10) 4.9.2 in Debian 8.3 (jessie) with a 32-bit user space. It works fine in a 64-bit user space. ``` /home/joey/src/coreboot/src/commonlib/lz4_wrapper.c:164:18: note: in expansion of macro 'MIN' size_t size = MIN((uint32_t)b.size, dst + dstn - out); ^ /home/joey/src/coreboot/src/commonlib/include/commonlib/helpers.h:29:35: error: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression [-Werror=sign-compare] #define MIN(a,b) ((a) < (b) ? (a) : (b)) ^ ``` The problem is arithmetic on void*, so explicitly cast to the wanted types as suggested by user *redi* in #gcc@irc.freenode.net.

2016-02-22cbfs: Add LZ4 in-place decompression support for pre-RAM stagesJulius Werner
This patch ports the LZ4 decompression code that debuted in libpayload last year to coreboot for use in CBFS stages (upgrading the base algorithm to LZ4's dev branch to access the new in-place decompression checks). This is especially useful for pre-RAM stages in constrained SRAM-based systems, which previously could not be compressed due to the size requirements of the LZMA scratchpad and bounce buffer. The LZ4 algorithm offers a very lean decompressor function and in-place decompression support to achieve roughly the same boot speed gains (trading compression ratio for decompression time) with nearly no memory overhead. For now we only activate it for the stages that had previously not been compressed at all on non-XIP (read: non-x86) boards. In the future we may also consider replacing LZMA completely for certain boards, since which algorithm wins out on boot speed depends on board-specific parameters (architecture, processor speed, SPI transfer rate, etc.). BRANCH=None BUG=None TEST=Built and booted Oak, Jerry, Nyan and Falco. Measured boot time on Oak to be about ~20ms faster (cutting load times for affected stages almost in half).
