It turns out that there are quite a few other projects that can access
the CBMEM console by now. If we ever want to make another structural or
behavioral change to it, we need to know where these implementations are
so we can make sure they're all getting updated. Let's try to build a
comprehensive list in the file that should be the source of truth for
all (coreboot's own implementation).

This patch allows the CBMEM console to persist across reboots, which
should greatly help post factum debugging of issues involving multiple
reboots. In order to prevent the console from filling up, it will
instead operate as a ring buffer that continues to evict the oldest
lines once full. (This means that if even a single boot doesn't fit into
the buffer, we will now drop the oldest lines whereas previous code
would've dropped the newest lines instead.)
The console control structure is modified in a sorta
backwards-compatible way, so that new readers can continue to work with
old console buffers and vice versa. When an old reader reads a new
buffer that has already once overflowed (i.e. is operating in true ring
buffer mode) it will print lines out of order, but it will at least
still print out the whole console content and not do any illegal memory
accesses (assuming it correctly implemented cursor overflow as it was
already possible before this patch).

Shorten field names of struct cbmem_console since saying "buffer_" in
front of everything is redundant and we can use the gained space to save
some line breaks in the code later. This also aligns the definition with
the version in libpayload.

Implement postcar stage cbmem console support. The postcar stage
is more like ramstage in that RAM is already up. Therefore, in
order to make the cbmem console reinit flow work one needs the cbmem
init hook infrastructure in place and the cbmem recovery called.
This call is added to x86/postcar.c to achieve that. Additionally,
one needs to provide postcar stage cbmem init hook callbacks for
the cbmem console library to use. A few other places need to
become postcar stage aware so that the code paths are taken.
Lastly, since postcar is backed by ram indicate that to the
cbmem backing store.

Squashed and adjusted two changes from chromium.git. Covers
CBMEM init for ROMTAGE and RAMSTAGE.
cbmem: Unify random on-CBMEM-init tasks under common CBMEM_INIT_HOOK() API
There are several use cases for performing a certain task when CBMEM is
first set up (usually to migrate some data into it that was previously
kept in BSS/SRAM/hammerspace), and unfortunately we handle each of them
differently: timestamp migration is called explicitly from
cbmem_initialize(), certain x86-chipset-specific tasks use the
CAR_MIGRATION() macro to register a hook, and the CBMEM console is
migrated through a direct call from romstage (on non-x86 and SandyBridge
boards).
This patch decouples the CAR_MIGRATION() hook mechanism from
cache-as-RAM and rechristens it to CBMEM_INIT_HOOK(), which is a clearer
description of what it really does. All of the above use cases are
ported to this new, consistent model, allowing us to have one less line
of boilerplate in non-CAR romstages.
BRANCH=None
BUG=None
TEST=Built and booted on Nyan_Blaze and Falco with and without
CONFIG_CBMEM_CONSOLE. Confirmed that 'cbmem -c' shows the full log after
boot (and the resume log after S3 resume on Falco). Compiled for Parrot,
Stout and Lumpy.

cbmem: Extend hooks to ramstage, fix timestamp synching
Commit 7dd5bbd71 (cbmem: Unify random on-CBMEM-init tasks under common
CBMEM_INIT_HOOK() API) inadvertently broke ramstage timestamps since
timestamp_sync() was no longer called there. Oops.
This patch fixes the issue by extending the CBMEM_INIT_HOOK() mechanism
to the cbmem_initialize() call in ramstage. The macro is split into
explicit ROMSTAGE_/RAMSTAGE_ versions to make the behavior as clear as
possible and prevent surprises (although just using a single macro and
relying on the Makefiles to link an object into all appropriate stages
would also work).
This allows us to get rid of the explicit cbmemc_reinit() in ramstage
(which I somehow accounted for in the last patch without realizing that
timestamps work exactly the same way...), and replace the older and less
flexible cbmem_arch_init() mechanism.
Also added a size assertion for the pre-RAM CBMEM console to memlayout
that could prevent a very unlikely buffer overflow I just noticed.
BRANCH=None
BUG=None
TEST=Booted on Pinky and Falco, confirmed that ramstage timestamps once
again show up. Compile-tested for Rambi and Samus.

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.

This patch creates a new mechanism to define the static memory layout
(primarily in SRAM) for a given board, superseding the brittle mass of
Kconfigs that we were using before. The core part is a memlayout.ld file
in the mainboard directory (although boards are expected to just include
the SoC default in most cases), which is the primary linker script for
all stages (though not rmodules for now). It uses preprocessor macros
from <memlayout.h> to form a different valid linker script for all
stages while looking like a declarative, boilerplate-free map of memory
addresses to the programmer. Linker asserts will automatically guarantee
that the defined regions cannot overlap. Stages are defined with a
maximum size that will be enforced by the linker. The file serves to
both define and document the memory layout, so that the documentation
cannot go missing or out of date.
The mechanism is implemented for all boards in the ARM, ARM64 and MIPS
architectures, and should be extended onto all systems using SRAM in the
future. The CAR/XIP environment on x86 has very different requirements
and the layout is generally not as static, so it will stay like it is
and be unaffected by this patch (save for aligning some symbol names for
consistency and sharing the new common ramstage linker script include).

On non-x86 systems, the location of the preram CBMEM console may not be in a
predictable place relative to other things in the linker script. That makes it
difficult to work with as its own section because the linker will complain if
you try to move backwards as it lays out memory. If the console header is
treated as an actual blob of memory which has to be put in the image, we'd
have to predict where to put it so that it isn't before something with a lower
address or after something with a higher address. Symbols, on the other hand,
can be defined arbitrarily.

to be where CAR is available and at the very bottom of the stack.
There is one shortcoming of this change:
The section created by this change needs to be stripped out by the Makefile
since leaving it in confuses cbfstool when it installs the stage in the image.
I would like to make the tools link those symbols at the right location but
leave allocation of that space out of the ELF.

The CBMEM console driver saves console output in a CBMEM area, which
then is made available to Linux applications for perusing.
There are some system limitations which need to be worked around
to achieve this goal:
- some console traffic is generated before DRAM is initialized,
leave alone CBMEM initialized.
- after the RAM based stage starts, a lot of traffic is generated
before CBMEM is initialized.
As a result, the console log lives in three different places -
the bottom of the cache as RAM space, the CBMEM buffer (where it
is expected to be) and a static buffer used early in the RAM
stage.
When execution starts (in the cache as RAM mode), the console
buffer is allocated at the bottom of the cache as RAM memory
address range. Once DRAM is initialized, the CBMEM structure is
initialized, and then the console buffer contents are copied from
the bottom of the cache as RAM space into the CBMEM area right
before the cache as RAM mode is disabled. The
src/lib/cbmem_console.c:cbmemc_reinit() takes care of the
copying.
At this point the cache as RAM memory is about to be disabled,
but the ROM stage is still going generating console output. To
make sure this output is not lost, cbmemc_reinit() saves the new
buffer address at a fixed location (0x600 was chosen for this),
and the actual "printing" function checks to see if the RAM is
already initialized (the stack is in RAM), and if so, gets the
console buffer pointer from this location instead of using the
cache as RAM address.
When the RAM stage starts, a static buffer is used to store the
console output, as the CBMEM buffer location is not known. Then,
when CBMEM is reinitialized, cbmemc_reinit() again takes care of
the copying.
In case the allocated buffers are not large enough, the excessive
data is dropped, and the copying routine adds some text to the
output buffer to indicate that there has been data lost and how
many characters were dropped.
