these laptops do not officially have nvme slots on them,
but there is an ngff wifi slot which is PCI-E x1, and you
can use a special adapter on it to run nvme ssds.
total throughput is retarded by the x1 PCI-E configuration,
but it's still faster than a sata ssd (nvmes are x4 PCI-E).
support it in grub_scan_disk on the off chance that some
users may make use of this. it should work just fine.

A subsequest revision will set them again as needed,

Fixes this bug:
https://codeberg.org/libreboot/lbmk/issues/216
Well, fix is the wrong word. We want xHCI ideally.
Mate is working on it as I write this. I've also:
* Disabled CONFIG_FINALIZE_USB_ROUTE_XHCI on Haswell
boards (coreboot)
* Disabled the GRUB payload on HP 820 G2 for now
We will need to re-add the xHCI patches once fixed.
If Mate/we can't fix it, I'll contact Patrick
Rudolph who originally wrote the xHCI patches.

See:
https://codeberg.org/libreboot/lbmk/issues/216
Almost all users will be OK running GRUB, but a
minority of users have experienced a fatal error
pertaining to grub_free() or grub_realloc() (as
my investigation of GRUB sources reveal when grepping
the error reported in the link above).
We don't yet know what the bug is, only that the
error occurs, leading to an effective brick if the
user has GRUB as their primary payload.
So far, it has only been reported on some Intel
SandyBridge-based Dell Latitudes in Libreboot, but
we can't be too sure.
The user reported that memtest86+ passes just fine,
and SeaBIOS works; BIOS GRUB also works, which means
that the bug is likely only in an area of GRUB that
runs specifically on the coreboot payload, so it's
probably a driver in GRUB when running on the metal
rather than BIOS/UEFI.
The build system supports a configuration whereby
SeaBIOS is the primary payload, but GRUB is available
in the SeaBIOS boot select menu, and an additional
configuration is available where GRUB is what SeaBIOS
executes first (while still providing boot select);
both of these are now the *only* configurations
available, on all x86 targets except QEMU.
The QEMU target is fine because if the bug occurs there,
you can just close QEMU and try a different image.
Even after this bug is later identified and fixed,
the GRUB source code is vastly over-engineered and there
are likely many more such bugs. SeaBIOS is a reliable
payload; the code is small and robust. Remember always:
Code
equals
bugs
Therefore, this configuration change is likely going
to be permanent. This will apply in the next release.

the release variable is all we need, turning a target on
or off for a given release.
the status checks were prone to bugs, and unnecessary; it
also broke certain benchmark scripts.
it's better to keep the lbmk logic simpler. board status
will be moved to the documentation instead.

export LBMK_VERSION_TYPE=x
x can be: stable, unstable
in target.cfg files, specify:
status=x
x can be: stable, unstable, broken, untested
if unset, lbmk defaults to "unknown"
if LBMK_VERSION_TYPE is set, no confirmation is asked
if the given target matches what's set (but what's set
in that environmental variable can only be stable or
unstable)
if LBMK_RELEASE="y", no confirmation is asked, unless
the target is something other than stable/unstable
"unstable" means it works, but has a few non-breaking
bugs, e.g. broken s3 on dell e6400
whereas, if raminit regularly fails or it is so absolutely
unreliable as to be unusable, then the board should be
declared "broken"
untested means: it has not been tested
With this change, it should now be easier to track whether
a given board is tested, in preparation for releases. When
working on trees/boards, status can be set for targets.
Also: in the board directory, you can add a "warn.txt" file
which will display a message. For example, if a board has a
particular quirk to watch out for, write that there. The message
will be printed during the build process, to stdout.
If status is anything *other* than stable, or it is unstable
but LBMK_VERSION_TYPE is not set to "unstable", and not building
a release, a confirmation is passed.
If the board is not specified as stable or unstable, during
a release build, the build is skipped and the ROM is not
provided in that release; this is in *addition* to
release="n" or release="y" that can be set in target.cfg,
which will skip the release build for that target if "n"

hell added a patch fixing S3 on haswell NRI, but it seems
you still need to set 8MB CBFS size as with the MRC
tested on a t440p. S3 now works on haswell NRI.

the t440p/w541 configs were re-done from scratch, because
the coreboot revisions are nearly two years apart.
i also added corebootfb configs.
hell updated their patchset. this patchset uses the following patch:
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/81948/1
it uses this, along with parent patches in the haswell nri patch series

the grub payload was previously disabled, because the libre
mrc code sets up xhci rather than ehci, and grub did not have
xhci support (not natively).
libreboot now has xhci support in the grub payload, so enable
grub on these configurations.

arch no longer needs to be set, on multi-tree projects,
and it has been renamed to xarch
the new behaviour is: if xarch is set, treat it as a
list of crossgcc targets and go through the list. set
the first one as the target, for what lbmk builds, but
build all of the defined crossgccc targets
crossgcc_ada is now xlang, and defines which languages
to build, rather than whether to build gcc-gnat

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

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.

as opposed to the current 3-level structure.
recent build system simplifications have enabled
this change, thus:
./build fw coreboot -> ./build roms
./build fw grub -> ./build grub
./build fw serprog -> ./build serprog
./update project release -> ./update release
./update project trees -> ./update trees
./update vendor download -> ./vendor download
./update vendor inject -> ./vendor inject
alper criticised that the commands were too long,
so i made them shorter!

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"

We don't have a directory names "srces", just "src".
Ditto ecs, mrcs <-- it's just ec and mrc
When referring to a file, e.g. blob/t1650/me.bin, that
makes much more sense, because it's a single blob, not
multiple blobs.
Don't pluralise what isn't plural

build/release/src was partly re-written to accomodate this
memtest86plus was patched to have a central Makefile, and
lbmk modified to use that, rather than mess with build32
and build64. the central Makefile just builds both targets
or cleans both targets
