	The linux trampoline was modifying the existing GDT to add the 0x10 and 0x18 descriptors for Linux. This will not work when the existing GDT is in ROM. Change the code to set up a new GDT in what we know to be RAM. Tested by booting a linux payload. The main reason this works is that Linux almost immediately loads its own GDT and then segment registers. This GDT is a very temporary bridge. Note that none of this change used to be necessary; the coreboot GDT was originally compatible with Linux (ca 2000); then Linux changed.

2015-12-02	cbfstool: autocreate trampoline	Stefan Reinauer
	Add the code necessary to create the linux trampoline blob. Don't enforce this for the in-coreboot build or use objcopy to produce linux_trampoline.o as it is a bit trickier to get all the details right than I had hoped: - you have to know the elf architecture of the host machine - you might have to have more tools (xxd, perl, etc) installed Change-Id: I9b7877c58d90f9fb21d16e0061a31e19fffa2470 Signed-off-by: Stefan Reinauer <stefan.reinauer@coreboot.org> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/12505 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) Reviewed-by: Martin Roth <martinroth@google.com>
