2015-06-02cbfs: new API and better program loadingAaron Durbin
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.

2015-05-21Remove address from GPLv2 headersPatrick 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>
2015-05-11vboot: inject vboot loader for stage loadingAaron Durbin
As previously done the vboot loader can be optionally inserted in the stage loading logic in order to decide the source of each stage. This current patch allows for verstage to be loaded and interrogated for the source of all subsequent stages. Additionally, it's also possible to build this logic directly into one of the additional stages. Note that this patch does not allow x86 to work.

2015-04-30program loading: add optional is_loader_active() callbackAaron Durbin
Add a way for a loader to indicate if it is active. Such users of this callback would be vboot which can indicate to the rest of the system that it isn't active. is_loader_active() also gives vboot a chance to perform the necessary work to make said decision.

2015-04-14timestamps: You can never have enough of them!Julius Werner
Now that we have timestamps in pre-RAM stages, let's actually make use of them. This patch adds several timestamps to both the bootblock and especially the verstage to allow more fine-grained boot time tracking. Some of the introduced timestamps can appear more than once per boot. This doesn't seem to be a problem for both coreboot and the cbmem utility, and the context makes it clear which operation was timestamped at what point. Also simplifies cbmem's timestamp printing routine a bit, fixing a display bug when a timestamp had a section of exactly ",000," in it (e.g. 1,000,185). BRANCH=None BUG=None TEST=Booted Pinky, Blaze and Falco, confirmed that all timestamps show up and contained sane values. Booted Storm (no timestamps here since it doesn't support pre-RAM timestamps yet).

2015-04-03program loading: add prog_run() functionAaron Durbin
The prog_run() function abstracts away what is required for running a given program. Within it, there are 2 calls: 1. platform_prog_run() and 2. arch_prog_run(). The platform_prog_run() allows for a chipset to intercept a program that will be run. This allows for CPU switching as currently needed in t124 and t132.

2015-04-03program loading: introduce struct progAaron Durbin
The struct prog serves as way to consolidate program loading. This abstraction can be used to perform more complicated execution paths such as running a program on a separate CPU after it has been loaded. Currently t124 and t132 need to do that in the boot path. Follow on patches will allow the platform to decide how to execute a particular program. Note: the vboot path is largely untouched because it's already broken in the coreboot.org tree. After getting all the necessary patches pushed then vboot will be fixed.

Provide a common run_romstage() function to be used by bootblocks to load and run romstage. This is similar to run_ramstage() in that it provides a single entry point for doing the necessary work of loading and running romstage.
