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!

The previous stability issues were resolved, thanks to the previous revision which added a fix courtesy Simon Glass. This reverts commit eba73c778a85d1c6ad2f0de57c82a8775cdd1c17.
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. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

2024-11-19grub.cfg: mark U-Boot as experimental in the menuLeah Rowe

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>

2024-11-06Bump coreboot/next and merge coreboot/dell7Leah Rowe
coreboot/dell7 is now part of coreboot/next, which in turn has been updated, to accomodate 3050 micro patchset 18: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/82053/18 It incorporates my Verb/VBT patches, which are therefore no longer included separately. Mate has fixed the USB config; see diff for details. The configuration of USB ports was wrong, before. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

2024-11-03Experimental U-Boot payload (32-bit dtb, U-Boot)Leah Rowe
NOTE: Support added for xarch target x86_64-elf, but U-Boot failed to build with this error: OBJCOPY lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi x86_64-elf-objcopy: lib/efi_loader/helloworld_efi.so: invalid bfd target make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.lib:476: lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi] Error 1 Since I'm building U-Boot for x86_64 *on* an x86-64 host, and since that is currently the recommended type of machine to use for lbmk development, and since the other x86 payloads currently don't cross compile anyway, this is an acceptable compromise for now. This is because at present, I'm not making U-Boot the primary payload on x86, instead preferring to chain it from GRUB and SeaBIOS. The target.cfg file for x86 u-boot shows xarch/xtree commented. Uncomment these to compile on crossgcc instead of hostcc. I mention 64-bit because I initially did this first, but decided to do 32-bit first. I'll work on the 64-bit one next (SPL). It's only enabled in QEMU for now. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-11-01coreboot/default: Re-base all patchesLeah Rowe
There were a lot of unnecessary patches, such as the VRAM patches; as Nicholas Chin has explained to me, the drivers for these machines will just allocate what RAM they want anyway, so in a lot of cases the extra allocated Video RAM simply reduces the total amount of memory for other uses. In general, we have a lot of patches that have existed for years. A much more aggressive sweep will be done in the next major audit, especially when the revisions are updated again.

2024-10-273050micro: Re-enable SeaGRUBLeah Rowe

2024-10-273050micro: don't set static option tableLeah Rowe
Again, I'm adapting the config to be as close to the coreboot one as possible. I compiled directly from coreboot earlier, and got SeaBIOS to work on my 3050. I'm matching the setup as closely as possible. Once it works, I can use that in a Libreboot release but then debug why the old config wasn't working. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-10-273050micro: Use alt century byte +legacy 8254 timerLeah Rowe
I'm eliminating as many differences as possible between lbmk's setup, and the setup that is default when simply building from the gerrit patch, directly in coreboot, by just picking the mainboard; in this way, coreboot picks SeaBIOS as payload. I already changed the SeaBIOS configs, in the previous patch. Upon testing, this seems to have fixed the SeaBIOS hanging. I need to have both of these options selected, or SeaBIOS hangs just after it says "Press ESC" for the boot menu. With this config change, SeaBIOS does not hang; instead, it shows the list of devices as normal, and boots your machine. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

- Update the MEC5035 S3 patches to the versions that were sent upstream to prevent conflicts with subsequent patches for that EC. - Update the patch that enables the S3 SMI handler in mainboard code so that all Latitudes use the handler. - Add a new patch that tells the EC to route power button events to the host so that the OS can decide what to do. Without it, the EC powers off the system without letting the OS cleanly shut down. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Chin <nic.c3.14@gmail.com>
2024-10-27Switch Dell 3050 Micro to newer coreboot revisionLeah Rowe
Specifically, use the same revision that Mate used in patchset 15. This will ensure that any issues are *not* caused by the coreboot revision; this is being done, because the old coreboot revision was from July, but patchset 15 from Mate is based on a September revision of coreboot. I've been eliminating as many variables as possible, trying to fix SeaBIOS payload on this machine, because it hangs in Libreboot, but not when building from gerrit directly, which means the coreboot revision may be a factor (since I'm using his patches on an older revision so upstream might have made some changes since then that the port relies on). For this, a new coreboot tree is used, called "dell7", referring to the fact that Kabylake is Intel's 7th generation. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-10-26Update dell 3050 patch to patch 15 (pwm fix)Leah Rowe
Use patchset 15 instead of 14: config/coreboot/default/patches/0061-WIP-OptiPlex-3050-Micro-port.patch Rebase the verb patch; patchset 15 modified the Makefile: config/coreboot/default/patches/0064-dell-optiplex_3050-add-hda_verb.c.patch We were using patchset 14 for the 3050 micro: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/82053/14 Now we use patchset 15: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/82053/15 Without this patch, the fans are always on a low setting, on the Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro, even under stress conditions. With this patch, the fans change speed according to CPU temperature. I had to rebase my verb patch, because Mate modified the Makefile to add his sch5555 handler, on the same line where I add hda_verb. Mate tells me he will merge my verb and vbt patches into a further patchset later on. For now, I've simply rebased these patches on top of Mate's newer work; I've told him he can use them in his port. I'm probably going to now issue a new revision ROM image for Libreboot 20241008, so that users can get this fix sooner. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-10-20rom.sh: remove unnecessary logic from copyps1biosLeah Rowe
the .git directory never exists anyway, when doing a release, so the purpose this is intended is defeated by lbmk's design. individual headers say "pcsx-redux team" as copyright anyway, and the code for generating that COPYING file, with MIT license and correct years (matching the entire source code for the open bios) remains correct. a mitigation instead of this patch might be to maintain a hardcoded list of authors, and manually update it over time, but this is not required. however, it may be good practise for upstream to maintain such a file. perhaps i should contact them?
