2013-03-21coreboot: introduce CONFIG_RELOCATABLE_RAMSTAGEAaron Durbin
This patch adds an option to build the ramstage as a reloctable binary. It uses the rmodule library for the relocation. The main changes consist of the following: 1. The ramstage is loaded just under the cmbem space. 2. Payloads cannot be loaded over where ramstage is loaded. If a payload is attempted to load where the relocatable ramstage resides the load is aborted. 3. The memory occupied by the ramstage is reserved from the OS's usage using the romstage_handoff structure stored in cbmem. This region is communicated to ramstage by an CBMEM_ID_ROMSTAGE_INFO entry in cbmem. 4. There is no need to reserve cbmem space for the OS controlled memory for the resume path because the ramsage region has been reserved in #3. 5. Since no memory needs to be preserved in the wake path, the loading and begin of execution of a elf payload is straight forward.

2013-03-19cbfs: alternative support for cbfs_load_payload()Aaron Durbin
In certain situations boot speed can be increased by providing an alternative implementation to cbfs_load_payload(). The ALT_CBFS_LOAD_PAYLOAD option allows for the mainboard or chipset to provide its own implementation. Booted baskingridge board with alternative and regular cbfs_load_payload().

2013-02-27selfboot: Report correct entry point address in debug message.Hung-Te Lin
Entry point in payload segment header is a 64 bit integer (ntohll). The debug message is currently reading that as a 32 bit integer (which will produce 00000000 for most platforms).

2013-01-30Extend CBFS to support arbitrary ROM source media.Hung-Te Lin
Summary: Isolate CBFS underlying I/O to board/arch-specific implementations as "media stream", to allow loading and booting romstage on non-x86. CBFS functions now all take a new "media source" parameter; use CBFS_DEFAULT_MEDIA if you simply want to load from main firmware. API Changes: cbfs_find => cbfs_get_file. cbfs_find_file => cbfs_get_file_content. cbfs_get_file => cbfs_get_file_content with correct type. CBFS used to work only on memory-mapped ROM (all x86). For platforms like ARM, the ROM may come from USB, UART, or SPI -- any serial devices and not available for memory mapping. To support these devices (and allowing CBFS to read from multiple source at the same time), CBFS operations are now virtual-ized into "cbfs_media". To simplify porting existing code, every media source must support both "reading into pre-allocated memory (read)" and "read and return an allocated buffer (map)". For devices without native memory-mapped ROM, "cbfs_simple_buffer*" provides simple memory mapping simulation. Every CBFS function now takes a cbfs_media* as parameter. CBFS_DEFAULT_MEDIA is defined for CBFS functions to automatically initialize a per-board default media (CBFS will internally calls init_default_cbfs_media). Also revised CBFS function names relying on memory mapped backend (ex, "cbfs_find" => actually loads files). Now we only have two getters: struct cbfs_file *entry = cbfs_get_file(media, name); void *data = cbfs_get_file_content(CBFS_DEFAULT_MEDIA, name, type); Test results: - Verified to work on x86/qemu. - Compiles on ARM, and follow up commit will provide working SPI driver.

2013-01-12Implement GCC code coverage analysisStefan Reinauer
In order to provide some insight on what code is executed during coreboot's run time and how well our test scenarios work, this adds code coverage support to coreboot's ram stage. This should be easily adaptable for payloads, and maybe even romstage. See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Gcov.html for more information. To instrument coreboot, select CONFIG_COVERAGE ("Code coverage support") in Kconfig, and recompile coreboot. coreboot will then store its code coverage information into CBMEM, if possible. Then, run "cbmem -CV" as root on the target system running the instrumented coreboot binary. This will create a whole bunch of .gcda files that contain coverage information. Tar them up, copy them to your build system machine, and untar them. Then you can use your favorite coverage utility (gcov, lcov, ...) to visualize code coverage. For a sneak peak of what will expect you, please take a look at http://www.coreboot.org/~stepan/coreboot-coverage/ Change-Id: Ib287d8309878a1f5c4be770c38b1bc0bb3aa6ec7 Signed-off-by: Stefan Reinauer <reinauer@google.com> Reviewed-on: http://review.coreboot.org/2052 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) Reviewed-by: David Hendricks <dhendrix@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Martin Roth <martin@se-eng.com> Reviewed-by: Ronald G.
