2015-03-10x86 cache-as-ram: Remove BROKEN_CAR_MIGRATE optionKyösti Mälkki
This was added to handle cases of Intel FSP platforms that had EARLY_CBMEM_INIT but could not migrate CAR variables to CBMEM. These boards were recently fixed. To support combination of EARLY_CBMEM_INIT without CAR migration was added maintenance effort with little benefits. You had no CBMEM console for romstage and the few timestamps you could store were circulated via PCI scratchpads or CMOS nvram.

2015-02-06FSP & CBMEM: Fix broken cbmem CAR transition.Martin Roth
1) Save the pointer to the FSP HOB list to low memory at address 0x614. This is the same location as CBMEM_RESUME_BACKUP - the two aren't used in the same platform, so overlapping should be OK. I didn't see any documentation that actually said that this location was free to use, and didn't need to be restored after use in S3 resume, but it looks like the DOS boot vector gets loaded juat above this location, so it SHOULD be ok. The alternative is to copy the memory out and store it in cbmem until we're ready to restore it. 2) When a request for the pointer to a CAR variable comes in, pass back the location inside the FSP hob structure. 3) Skip the memcopy of the CAR Data. The CAR variables do not get transitioned back into cbmem, but used out of the HOB structure. 4) Remove the BROKEN_CAR_MIGRATE Kconfig option from the FSP platform.

2015-01-27CBMEM: Tidy up CAR migrationKyösti Mälkki
Move the CAR migration call to arch -specific part of CBMEM init, it is truly a x86 specific thing.

With the change it becomes irrelevant if memcpy() car.global_data or cbmemc_reinit() is done first.

2014-12-30CBMEM: Always build for x86 romstageKyösti Mälkki
Always build CBMEM for romstage, even for boards that will not use it. We further restrict car_migrate_variables() runs to non-ROMCC boards without BROKEN_CAR_MIGRATE. This fixes regression of commit 71b21455 that broke CBMEM console support for boards with a combination of !EARLY_CBMEM_INIT && !HAVE_ACPI_RESUME.

2014-02-24CAR_GLOBAL: enforce compiler to check if _start != _endEdward O'Callaghan
There are some fun rules C compilers can use to optimize their code. One of them is the assumption that two symbols point to two different addresses. In this case this wasn't true, resulting in unintended code execution (and later, a crash) with a clang build.

Non-S3 resume paths of sandy/ivybridge call cbmem_initialize() more than once. Doing car_migrate_variables() more than twice caused at least loss of some lines in CBMEM console.

2013-05-16x86: add cache-as-ram migration optionAaron Durbin
There are some boards that do a significant amount of work after cache-as-ram is torn down but before ramstage is loaded. For example, using vboot to verify the ramstage is one such operation. However, there are pieces of code that are executed that reference global variables that are linked in the cache-as-ram region. If those variables are referenced after cache-as-ram is torn down then the values observed will most likely be incorrect. Therefore provide a Kconfig option to select cache-as-ram migration to memory using cbmem. This option is named CAR_MIGRATION. When enabled, the address of cache-as-ram variables may be obtained dynamically. Additionally, when cache-as-ram migration occurs the cache-as-ram data region for global variables is copied into cbmem. There are also automatic callbacks for other modules to perform their own migration, if necessary.
