2013-11-19nvramtool: write size field more obviouslyPatrick Georgi
The field wasn't initialized in RAM first and later overwritten in a somewhat twisted way (that relied on the size field coming after the tag field in the struct).

We write CMOS data to 128 byte files, which is a problem when using them later-on (eg. as part of a coreboot image) where nvramtool assumes them to be 256 byte, and so data corruption occurs.

Some bootloaders seem to overwrite memory starting at 0x600, thus destroying the coreboot table integrity, rendering the table useless. By moving the table to the high tables area (if it's activated), this problem is fixed. In order to move the table, a 40 bytes mini coreboot table with a single sub table is placed at 0x500/0x530 that points to the real coreboot table. This is comparable to the ACPI RSDT or the MP floating table. This patch also adds "table forward" support to flashrom and nvramtool.

2008-09-27Add string support to nvramtool.Stefan Reinauer
To add a string to your cmos.layout, you need to specify type 's': #start len type unused name 416 512 s 0 boot_devices With this patch you can do $ nvramtool -w boot_devices="(hd0,0);(hd2,1);(hd3)" And FILO will attempt to load a menu.lst from any of these devices in that order. The patch is not exactly pretty, but a cleaner solution might have resulted in a complete rewrite of the tool, which I did not want.
