2016-08-17mainboard: Clean up boot_option/reboot_bits in cmos.layoutNico Huber
Since commit 3bfd7cc (drivers/pc80: Rework normal / fallback selector code) the reboot counter stored in `reboot_bits` isn't reset on a reboot with `boot_option = 1` any more. Hence, with SKIP_MAX_REBOOT_CNT_CLEAR enabled, later stages (e.g. payload, OS) have to clear the counter too, when they want to switch to normal boot. So change the bits to (h)ex instead of (r)eserved. To clarify their meaning, rename `reboot_bits` to `reboot_counter`. Also remove all occurences of the obsolete `last_boot` bit that have sneaked in again since 24391321 (mainboard: Remove last_boot NVRAM option).

Set MMCONF_BASE_ADDRESS to 0xf8000000. It was already done for some boards, but not all. The sandybridge chipset code assumes 64 pci buses behind MMCONF. Therefore, only 64MiB of physical address space is required. Increasing the address allows to use additional 128MiB of MMIO space and to use the Intel IGD and a PEG at the same time. Previously it wasn't possible to use both at the same time, as two 256MiB areas won't fit into MMIO space.

2015-10-03sandybridge ivybridge: Treat native init as first class citizenAlexandru Gagniuc
This is a sad story. We have three different code paths for sandybridge and ivybridge: proper native path, google MRC path, and, everyone's favorite: Intel FSP path. For the purpose of this patch, the FSP path lives in its own little world, and doesn't concern us. Since MRC was first, when native files and variables were added, they were suffixed with "_native" to separate them from the existing code. This can cause confusion, as the suffix might make the native files seem parasitical. This has been bothering me for many months. MRC should be the parasitical path, especially since we fully support native init, and it works more reliably, on a wider range of hardware. There have been a few board ports that never made it to coreboot.org because MRC would hang. gigabyte/ga-b75m-d3h is a prime example: it did not work with MRC, so the effort was abandoned at first. Once the native path became available, the effort was restarted and the board is now supported. In honor of the hackers and pioneers who made the native code possible, rename things so that their effort is the first class citizen.

2014-11-23sandy/ivy/nehalem: Remerge interrupt handlingVladimir Serbinenko
On those chipsets the pins are just a legacy concept. Real interrupts are messages on corresponding busses or some internal logic of chipset. Hence interrupt routing isn't anymore board-specific (dependent on layout) but depends only on configuration. Rather than attempting to sync real config, ACPI and legacy descriptors, just use the same interrupt routing per chipset covering all possible devices. The only part which remains board-specific are LPC and PCI interrupts. Interrupt balancing may suffer from such merge but: a) Doesn't seem to be the case of this map on current systems b) Almost all OS use MSI nowadays bypassing this stuff completely c) If we want a good balancing we need to take into account that e.g. wlan card may be placed in a different slot and so would require complicated balancing on runtime. It's difficult to maintain with almost no benefit.

From the C specification in 5.1.2.1 Freestanding environment; "In a freestanding environment (in which C program execution may take place without any benefit of an operating system), the name and type of the function called at program startup are implementation-defined." Clang complains about these being missing as Clang is somewhat more strict about the spec than GNU/GCC is. An advantage here is that a different entry-point type-signature shall now be warned about at compile time.
