10 daysAdd auto-boot timeout for U-Boot's bootflow menuLeah Rowe
Otherwise, you have to press enter to boot your distro. With this, a timeout is created. After a number of seconds, which can be reconfigured, the first option selected will be booted, when generating a bootflow menu. The timeout is disabled when you navigate the menu; it only kicks in if you don't input anything on the keyboard. More information about how this works is in the U-Boot patches, within this patch. I've set the timeout to 8 seconds. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

Otherwise, you have to press enter to boot, which is unacceptable for headless operation. Pressing anything other than enter an an option, such as the arrow keys, will disable the timeout. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

This reverts commit 5b4c9158e5a79f8d7e776c8c4ece69dda5aa8690.
12 daystrees: Allow using a custom clean commandLeah Rowe
On coreboot for example, as Mate has told me, if you're making Kconfig changes and re-compiling, sometimes the actual image that you build might still have the old one in it, due to how coreboot's build system works. To mitigate this, you can just always run distclean before doing the build, but lbmk was doing just clean. In practise, we did not find any issues, but this change should be harmless, and might prevent such issues in the future. It's even possible that we might have already encountered this before and not realised, and we were just lucky that no noticeable issues were caused. It's *also* possible that the reverse is true: an issue that was previously covered up, then that issue will now be exposed. However, if that turns out to be true, then that is good because we are exposing said bugs and then we will know to fix them! Anyway, the variable in target.cfg is: cleancmd="whatever_you_want" e.g. cleancmd="distclean" You may also specify this in global mkhelper.cfg files, per project; I've already done this for SeaBIOS, coreboot and U-Boot, since all of these use Kconfig files.

12 daysAdd SPD support for onboard ThinkPad T480S RAMLeah Rowe
Patchset 20 from: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/83274/18..20 Updated to that. A bunch of changes I made locally have been copied here, thus removed from lbmk. The previous setup in lbmk was to have only the DIMM slot work, on the ThinkPad T480S, without setting up SPD for the onboard RAM> Mate Kukri reverse engineered the scheme by which the SPDs are chosen at boot, based on the wiring of the board. This should just about match the way Lenovo did it in their firmware. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
12 daysDisable m2 caddy hotplug on T480SLeah Rowe
This fixes an error where nvme disappears and gets renamed on s3 resume. Mate Kukri told me to test that and it worked. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
12 daysvendor.sh: Remove T480 VGA ROM download handlingLeah Rowe
Libreboot's binary blob reduction policy is crystal clear: If a blob can be avoided, it must be avoided. The ThinkPad T480 was using Intel's VGA ROM for graphics initialisation very briefly, before Mate fixed libgfxinit. Since libgfxinit is fixed, the Intel VGA ROM is obsolete, so we should not be handling this at all. Similarly, the Nvidia ROM handling has been removed, because Mate is hard-disabling that in the coreboot code anyway, since the Nvidia dGPU didn't work when tested anyway. Even if it did, Libreboot's blob policy makes it clear that Intel graphics with native init from coreboot is to be the preferred option. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
12 daysEnable legacy 8254 timer on ThinkPad T480Leah Rowe
I also enabled this on T480S, because otherwise SeaBIOS hung. Enabling it shouldn't cause any harm on the T480, though Mate did say that his machine seemed to work with my setup. However, I believe that was when I gave him the ones that lbmk built with the VGA ROM. Now it builds with libgfxinit, because Mate was able to fix libgfxinit on this machine.

12 daysNEW MAINBOARD: ThinkPad T480SLeah Rowe
Added t480s delta to deguard, for MFS config. Updated coreboot/next to latest t480 patch set, which includes t480s. This porting was done by Mate Kukri. also includes experimental t480s support Also added a data.vbt file (not in the gerrit patch) for the T480s. I had to turn on 8254 legacy timer on t480s, otherwise SeaBIOS would hang. Same issue I saw on OptiPlex 3050 Micro. Minor issue: On S3 resume, nvme0n1 for example got renamed to nvme0n2. This caused a crash if running Linux from the nvme. I confirmed this via live USB distro. So this port will need some tweaking before it can be considered stable. Also uses libgfxinit, which Mate recently fixed. I'm going to enable libgfxinit on regular T480 next. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

14 daysu-boot: Enable USB with a preboot commandAlper Nebi Yasak
We need to initialize the USB subsystem before we can use USB devices like keyboards and external disks, by running `usb start`. Use the PREBOOT config option to run the necessary command before U-Boot tries to automatically boot anything. It's already enabled for boards other than gru_kevin and gru_bob, so just update those two configs. Signed-off-by: Alper Nebi Yasak <alpernebiyasak@gmail.com>
14 daysu-boot: Update ARM64 boards to v2024.10Alper Nebi Yasak
Set default U-Boot revision to v2024.10 and rebase patches on top of that. The video subsystem now has switched to using the 'cyclic' mechanism, so the code around one of the video patches changed a bit. x86 boards were already switched to v2024.10. Update U-Boot for the remaining ARM64 boards as usual: - Turn old configs into defconfigs (./update trees -s u-boot) - Save the diff from old upstream defconfig (diffconfig $theirs $ours) - Update U-Boot revision, rebase patches, and clean old trees - Prepare new U-Boot tree (./update trees -f u-boot) - Review the diffconfigs to see if any options were renamed upstream - Copy over the new upstream defconfigs and apply earlier diff - Turn new defconfigs into configs (./update trees -l u-boot) Signed-off-by: Alper Nebi Yasak <alpernebiyasak@gmail.com>
2024-11-29trees: reset PATH per-targetLeah Rowe
Otherwise, if PATH was set before, it will be re-used again in the next pass. We previously unset CROSS_COMPILE to avoid using the wrong cross-compiler when switching to another target within a multi-tree project such as U-Boot. Well, PATH was also being set, to use coreboot xgcc first. This is fine, but the next target may not use the same one. This patch solves a similar problem to the following patch which was mentioned above: commit 637c0a1521a03e3f65de85dcc5ffd478b37a5360 Author: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org> Date: Tue Nov 19 02:52:28 2024 +0000 trees: unset CROSS_COMPILE per target Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-11-27rom.sh: Add U-Boot before SeaBIOS and GRUB (x86)Leah Rowe
Since U-Boot must be inserted at a specific offset, it's theoretically possible that other files might overlap, but cbfstool will work around wherever U-Boot was inserted if it was inserted first; we don't use specific offsets for the other files. This is technically a preventative bug fix, but it fixes a bug that would probably never occur in practise. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-11-26rom.sh: Remove unnecessary shebangLeah Rowe
This is not a main script, and should not be treated as such; it must never be directly executed by the user. This script was only ever used inside other scripts, so the shebang didn't seem to do much at all, but it shouldn't be there anyway. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

2024-11-21rom.sh: Don't build U-Boot on normal initmodeLeah Rowe
The "normal" mode in lbmk is where no built-in GPU exists, or no libgfxinit is used, and SeaBIOS is the first payload, and SeaBIOS executes VGA ROMs (can't know if it'll start in VESA or text mode). U-Boot needs a VESA framebuffer or native coreboot framebuffer to work correctly. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

2024-11-21rom.sh: Support SeaUBoot for 64-bit x86 U-BootLeah Rowe
Same concept as SeaGRUB, but for U-Boot. SeaBIOS starts, but has a bootorder file loading U-Boot first, from flash. You can interrupt it with the ESC menu, to boot something else in SeaBIOS, including GRUB. With this, we can effectively provide extremely user-friendly UEFI-first setups in Libreboot. Take that, edk2! Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-11-20U-Boot x86: Avoid clearing the VESA displayLeah Rowe
This is a patch from Simon Glass. U-Boot clears the display when it starts up, but was asking the VESA driver to do the same, needlessly; this patch avoids the latter. A further patch is also included, which provides a better message when jumping into long mode on the SPL (64-bit) target, dumping it on the serial console instead of using printf.

2024-11-20Only boot 32-bit u-boot from grub, 64 from seabiosLeah Rowe
For some reason, 32-bit U-Boot only works when executed from GRUB, but not SeaBIOS; 64-bit U-Boot only works from SeaBIOS! This will have to be investigated. Standalone U-Boot, where U-Boot is the primary payload, has not yet been tested in Libreboot, and will not be provided for some time due to stability concerns. More testing is needed!

2024-11-19u-boot x86 serial/ns16550: disable UART as neededLeah Rowe
U-Boot was hanging on hardware, but not Qemu. This is because on the machines tested, namely the X200 and E6230 laptops supported in Libreboot, the UART was disabled from coreboot. This U-Boot patch from Simon Glass works around the issue by silently disabling the UART when it isn't there. Instead, output is sent to the display and U-Boot no longer hangs.

2024-11-19trees: unset CROSS_COMPILE per targetLeah Rowe
When building a coreboot image, if they enable the x86 U-Boot payloads, sometimes what happens is you have CROSS_COMPILE set, for i386-elf, but then it's still set to that when later building 64-bit U-Boot, which needs x86_64-elf. We currently rely on hostcc to build U-Boot. To mitigate this, unset CROSS_COMPILE in the main loop of the trees script, for building project targets. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
