and only where grub was already enabled; on boards that did not enable grub, grub is still disabled on desktops, it's possible that the user may insert a graphics card. if their first payload was grub, it won't work because lbmk doesn't configure coreboot itself to execute vga roms at present i found when testing t1650 (dell) that if a vgarom is loaded from seabios (from a graphics card), the grub payload still works; if booting in corebootfb mode, text mode is still used when booting with the card to decrease the probability of bricks with any given set of users, make seabios the only payload that starts first, but make grub available in the esc menu on seabios it's possible to add a bootorder file and disable the seabios menu, if you only want a grub payload accessible Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
they are fundamentally the same, in an lbmk context. they are downloaded in the same way, and compiled in the same way! (Kconfig infrastructure, board-specific code, the way submodules are used in git, etc) ~200 sloc reduction in resources/scripts the audit begins Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
this was taken from old libreboot. the last libreboot revisions that had these boards were under the old policy. i left microcode disabled at first, because the old coreboot 4.11 behaviour was to always insert microcode regardless, so old libreboot patched out microcode from the coreboot build system however, 4.11_branch appears to actually honour microcode configuration, so i do actually need to make sure it's enabled in configs Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
Libreboot 20220710 was the last release to support these boards. I plan to eventually port code differences between D8/D16 to Dasharo, for KCMA-D8 support in Dasharo, to then use in Libreboot for both KCMA-D8 and KGPE-D16, but I have no plans to update the KFSN4-DRE code, at least for now. Libreboot 20220710 used coreboot 4.11, whereas this patch makes use of coreboot 4.11_branch; the crossgcc toolchains no longer compile on modern distros, so I spent time patching those (tested in Debian Sid, will also work on Arch Linux and so on). The acpica downloads now fail, in 4.11_branch, because Intel made some changes upstream for these tarball downloads. Newer coreboot works around this by grabbing tarballs from github, itself a non-ideal solution, but I digress; this patch changes coreboot crossgcc (in 4.11_branch) to download the acpica tarball from libreboot rsync, where I've added it. This patch also re-introduces the PIKE2008 fix, where empty option ROMs for these are inserted into CBFS. This prevents SeaBIOS from loading the real option ROMs, which would cause SeaBIOS to hang. This means that SAS drives are not supported in SeaBIOS, for these boards in Libreboot. I previously said, in the Censored Libreboot c20230710 announcement, that I would *only* merge D8/D16 when I've added Dasharo support to Libreboot, and use that, but the work to make coreboot 4.11_branch compile is something I'm quite proud of and I see no reason to exclude from lbmk master branch. Honestly, there's not much different than 4.11, code-wise. I *probably* won't use 4.11_branch for the next Libreboot release, on D8/D16. By then, I might have Dasharo integrated in lbmk instead. We shall see. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
buggy, buggy, buggy, buggy, buggy, buggy, buggy full of bugs, these boards never worked properly. i got ripped off with these. now i'm ripping off the band aid use dasharo if you want d16 stuff. i'm done with it.
osboot is now part of libreboot, and will soon shut down. libreboot now conforms to osboot policy.
tianocore is a liability for the libreboot project. it's a bloated mess, and unreliable, broken on many boards, and basically impossible to audit. i don't trust tianocore, so i'm removing it.
