2023-12-23don't delete microcode updates in rom imagesLeah Rowe
at present, lbmk can remove microcode updates on images for a given target, if the target specifies microcode_required="n" in target.cfg lbmk then provides images with microcode, and images without, in a given release. although the user can also remove them manually, this just makes it a bit more convenient, for those users who do wish to run without the updates. this functionality is provided only on those platforms where no-microcode is tested. well, this behaviour implements a compromise on libreboot policy, which is to always include microcode updates by default. see: Binary Blob Reduction Policy the *canoeboot* project now exists, developed in parallel with libreboot, and it ships without microcode updates, on the same targets where lbmk also handled this. running without microcode updates is foolish, and should not be encouraged. clean up lbmk by not providing this kludge. the libreboot documentation will be updated, telling such users to try canoeboot instead, or to remove the update from a given libreboot rom - this is still possible, and mitigations such as PECI disablement on GM45 are still in place (and will be kept), so that this continues to work well.

2023-12-21build/roms: remove modify_coreboot_rom()Leah Rowe
don't handle "romtype" at all, in board target.cfg files add /dev/null as pike2008 rom on amd boards. this serves the same purpose, adding them as empty vga roms, to add an empty rom in cbfs. pike2008 cards cause seabios to hang, when their oproms are executed, so we insert a fake rom on i945 thinkpads, use the coreboot config option: CONFIG_INTEL_ADD_TOP_SWAP_BOOTBLOCK when set, this enables the same bootblock copy, for use with bucts. these two cases, namely pike2008 roms and i945 bootblock copies, no longer need to be handled in code Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-12-21update/trees: simplified crossgcc handlingLeah Rowe
only call crossgcc for coreboot and u-boot, but use hostcc for everything else. simplify the checking of which architecture to compile for. "arch" in target.cfg files has been modified, to allow further simplification. without this patch, the logic currently only *barely* avoids using crossgcc on things like utils, and only works in practise because, in practise, lbmk only works on x86_64 anyway. the new logic, as per this patch, is simpler and more robust.

2023-10-28coreboot/fam15h: don't set microcode_requiredLeah Rowe
the logic for naming coreboot roms is based on whether cpu_microcode_blob.bin would exist in cbfs, and whether deletion was therefore successful. lbmk was naming nomicrocode on fam15h roms on this basis, but the microcode was being inserted as microcode_amd.bin and microcode_amd_fam15h.bin in the recent 20231021 release, the roms were exclusively labeled _nomicrocode in the rom names, but they do in fact contain microcode. i'm fixing it by telling lbmk *not* to delete microcode. if microcode_required is not set, or it's set to y, then only roms *with* microcode updates are provided; even if the rom doesn't actually contain it, lbmk will only label it _nomicrocode if that setting is set to n. i'm not bothering to add further complexity to the rom handling logic, because canoeboot now exists anyway (at website https://canoeboot.org/) which is my new version re-implementing the older, inferior version of libreboot so i'm going to: 1) document this as errata in the release 2) cross reference in the freedom status page 3) if someone still isn't happy, i'll say use canoeboot job done.

2023-10-07rename blob/ to vendor/Leah Rowe
in the future, we may start downloading files that aren't blobs, such as mxm port configs (on mainboards that use MXM graphics) this directory will contain all of those files generally change the language used, across lbmk, to make use of "vendorfile" instead of "blob" Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
