This is using Mate Kukri's port, which was added in
previous lbmk revisions. I've added an IFD that sets
the HAP bit, and unlocks regions as standard.
vcfg is set to 3050micro, which defines downloading
of the MEv11 image and it will run deguard automatically.
I made a small adjustment to vendor.sh, because the hotpatch
logic for deguard uses -C in git, and when doing that, the
specified directory path is relative to that Git repository;
the .patch path has been adjusted accordingly.
Also add 3rdparty/fsp to coreboot/default modules.
This board requires the ifdtool option: -p sklkbl
The -p option tells flashrom what quirks are present in a
given IFD. We don't normally need this on other Libreboot
targets that we currently support. The -p option was needed
for creating this modified IFD, and it is therefore needed in
the inject script. Therefore, an "IFD_platform" option is
specified in a given board's target.cfg file. If this is set,
another variable is set that makes -p be used.
In this case, 3050's target.cfg says:
IFD_platform="sklkbl"
This option enables quirks for skylake/kabylake descriptors,
as required when using ifdtool.

I also added a "cleanargs" argument, similar to the makeargs
argument, to work around a build error.
This builds the PCSX-Redux PS1 BIOS. They reverse engineered
the Sony PS1 BIOS and wrote a free one under MIT license.
Run this:
./mk -b pcsx-redux
The file will appear: bin/playstation/openbios.bin

We don't need the entire emulator, but we will be using
a specific part: src/mips/openbios
third_party/uC-sdk submodule is included, because it
contains the necessary header files when building open bios.
I will be adding Sony Playstation support to Libreboot,
alongside a new emulator project to be announced soon.

Copy the downloaded deguard source code into appdir,
and patch it to run as part of lbmk, instead of
standalone. The archived one in src/ is not directly
used; instead, the hotpatched version is used.
This is because the standalone version already has
download logic for the .zip file, but we already
cache that file in cache/ and use that.

This program disables the Intel Boot Guard on Dell
OptiPlex 3050 Micro, via Intel ME modification.
Using this hack, you can run unsigned code on the ME.
Mate disabled BootGuard this way.

Commit 3ee4cc9ddec62276c374f8c7f0c0b3322cfaa9f6 (fix typo in dell
latitude coreboot coreboot config) fixed a typo from ${VARIANT_DIR) to
$(CONFIG_VARIANT_DIR). While this does work, since CONFIG_VARIANT_DIR is
a valid variable, it is not technically correct, as the default VBT path
set by coreboot's Kconfig files uses $(VARIANT_DIR), which is the same
as CONFIG_VARIANT_DIR, but with quotes stripped out.

some of my DDR2 checks were unnecessary, as nicholas pointed

DDR2 memory was used anyway.

The libgfxinit patch and other patches e.g. DDR2 fix, are
now provided in coreboot/default. The Latitude E6400 is now
using the newer coreboot revision from late July 2024.
Some other configs had to change because of this, relating to
the new way that Nicholas handles timing on LVDS displays
with the E6400 port; a default 96MHz clock is still used for
pixel reference clock, overridden with a value of 100MHz on
other GM45 machines, where 96MHz was previously hardcoded.

Several patches are now merged upstream and no longer needed
in lbmk, such as the HP EliteBook 8560w patch, and related
patches. Some patches were changed, for example the Dell Latitude
ivb/snb laptops are now variants in coreboot, instead of being
individual ports; now they re-use the same base code.
This this, the corresponding files under config/submodules
have changed, for things like 3rdparty submodules e.g. libgfxinit,
and tarballs e.g. crossgcc.
This is long overdue, and will enable more boards to be added.
This newer revision will be used in the next release, and some
follow-up patches will merge these trees into default:
* coreboot/haswell
* coreboot/dell

musl libc is very conservative in what it implements,
preferring a very "pure" libc implementation. this means
that it lacks many of the niceties found in others like
the GNU C Library; the latter implements many BSD libc
extensions, for example.
ACCESSPERMS is a #define in BSD libc that does:
S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IRWXO
Essentially, it provides a bitwise OR providing chmod 0777,
which can be used as shorthand in calls to functions such
as mkdir() available in all libc implementations.
In the case of uefitool, this define is indeed used on mkdir.
Conditionally re-define ACCESSPERMS, if undefined, so that musl
libc can be used when building uefitool.

this time, only handle multiple keymaps on seagrub
images. for images where seabios is first but does
not immediately load grub, whether grub is still
available in flash, just do one image (US Qwerty)
this still results in fewer images per target than
Libreboot 20240612, but should prevent most users
from being annoyed. i got a few people asking
repeatedly, and i hadn't documented yet how to add
keymap.gkb or how to remove bootorder, to get a
different keymap or disable seagrub respectively.
i anticipate that i'll get such questions a lot, even
if i do document it, so i'm reversing that decision.
it doesn't result in much extra code. the new design
in lbmk makes this sort of thing much simpler.

Commit 46e01c0e1dad ("u-boot: Avoid building U-Boot-only binman images")
added a patch that prevents an error while building U-Boot, due to some
U-Boot images needing a copy of BL31 that we are not passing in.
Removing build instructions for these images isn't really necessary,
when we can instead tell the build tool that it shouldn't exit with an
error. It checks a BINMAN_ALLOW_MISSING environment variable for this,
but just unconditionally replace the check with the argument.

Set default U-Boot revision to v2024.07 and rebase patches on top of
that. One patch that fixes drawing box characters (UTF-8 to CP437) had
an alternative merged, another hack we have to fix regulator issues is
no longer neccessary as the issue is fixed, and my QEMU patches were
merged upstream, so drop these patches. One patch we have to disable
binman images can be replaced by a simpler alternative so drop it too.
Upstream kconfig status is still unstable, so updating configs with
`make oldconfig` would miss important upstream changes, since they rely
on carrying defaults via upstream defconfigs. Update the configs as
such, like before:
- 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)

move the coreboot-specific includes into mkhelper.cfg
for that project.
on some projects, we need variables from mkhelper.cfg
to be global, so I was including serprog and coreboot
mkhelper.cfg files in this script.
instead, set a new variable "mkhelpercfg" pointing to
the config file. if it doesn't exist, create and then
point to a temporary (empty) mkhelper.cfg file.
the rom.sh include has been moved to coreboot mkhelper.cfg
The only remaining project-specific logic, in this trees
script, is now the coreboot crossgcc handling, but this
needs to be there as it's also used to build U-Boot.
The way this now works, certain includes are done twice.
For example, include/rom.sh will be included once globally,
outside of main(), and then again in configure_project().
This means that certain functions will be defined twice.
I'm uncertain if shell has anything equivalent to an ifdef
guard as in C, but we actually want this here anyway, and
it shouldn't cause any problems. It's a bit of a hack, but
otherwise results in much cleaner code.

-d does the same as -b, except for actually building
anything! in effect, it does the same as -f (fetch)
except that the resulting variable assignments will
not be recursive (as with -f).
if -d is passed, configuration is still loaded, defconfig
files are still cycled through, and more importantly:
helper functions are still processed.
the grub, serprog and coreboot helper functions have
been modified to return early (zero status) if -d is
passed.
this behaviour will be used to integrate vendor.sh
logic in with the trees script, for cases where the
user wants to only handle vendor files. e.g.:
./update trees -b coreboot x230_12mb
this would download the files as usual, build coreboot,
with those files, and then build the payloads. but:
./update trees -d coreboot x230_12mb
this would download the files, NOT build coreboot, and
NOT build the payloads.
this change increases the sloccount a bit, but i'm relying
on the fact that the vendor.sh script already re-implements
config handling wastefully; the plan is to only use trees.
for now, simply stub the same ./vendor download command.
there is one additional benefit to doing it this way:
this method is *per-kconfig* rather than per-target.
this way, one kconfig might specify a given vendor file
that is not specified in the other. although the stub
still simply handles this per target, it's done in premake,
which means that the given .config file has been copied.
this means that when i properly re-integrate the logic
into script/trees, i'll be able to go for it per-kconfig.
the utils command has been removed, e.g.
./update trees -b coreboot utils default
the equivalent is now:
./update trees -d coreboot default
this would technically download vendor files, but here
we are specifying a target for which no kconfigs exist;
a check is also in place, to avoid running the vendor file
download logic if tree==target
the overall effect of this change is that the trees script
no longer contains any project-specific logic, except for
the crossgcc build logic.
it does include some config/data mkhelper files at the top,
for serprog and coreboot, so that those variables defined in
those files can be global, but another solution to mitigate
that will also be implemented in a future commit.
the purpose of this and other revisions (in the final push
to complete lbmk audit 6 / cbmk audit 2) is to generalise as
much logic as possible, removing various ugly hacks.

stub it from the trees script. the way it works now,
there is less code in the build system.
./build roms
this is no longer a thing
./build roms serprog
this is also no longer a thing. instead, do:
./update trees -b coreboot targetnamehere
./update trees -b pico-serprog
./update trees -b stm32-vserprog
the old commands still works, which causes the new
commands to run
coreboot roms now appear in elf/, not bin/, as before,
but those images now contain payloads.
NOTE: to contradict the above: ./build roms is no
longer a thing, in that it's now deprecated, but
backward compatibility is present for now. it will
be removed in a future release.
./build roms list also still works! it will do:
./update trees -b coreboot list
also:
./update trees -b grub list
this is now possible too
if a target "list" is provided, for multi-tree sources,
the targets are shown.
there is another difference: seagrub roms are now seagrub_,
instead of seabios_withgrub.
seabios-only roms are no longer provided, where grub is also
enabled; only seagrub is used. the user can easily remove
the bootorder file, if they want seabios to not try grub first.

don't put it in the install modules.
this works around a hanging issue on haswell thinkpads.
when any usb device is inserted, GRUB will sometimes
hang if started from the SeaBIOS payload, *while* the
USB device is plugged in.
plugging in the USB device after GRUB starts worked.
it will have to be investigated more at a later date,
but this simply configuration change works.
the xhci module is already loaded explicitly, in grub.cfg

stick the makeargs in mkhelper
i previously did cbmakeargs because the old revisions
had to define makeargs per-target otherwise. mkhelper
was done specifically to solve that problem.

instead, make it a helper function, defined in target.cfg
this means that we can also do the same with other projects
in the future, and it is expected that we will have to.
these helper functions are used in cases where we want
additional actions to be performed.
actually, the helper could be anything. for example, you
could write:
mkhelper="./build foo bar"
and it would do that (at the point of execution, PWD
is the root directory of the build system)

don't hardcode the check based on whether the current
project is grub. instead, define "btype" in target.cfg
if unset, we assume kconfig and permit kconfig commands
e.g. make menuconfig, make silentoldconfig, etc
this is to avoid the deadliest of sins:
project-specific hacks

Never, ever build images where GRUB is the primary payload.
These options have been removed from target.cfg handling:
* seabios_withgrub
* grub_withseabios
The "payload_grub" variable now does the same thing as
the old "seabios_withgrub" variable, if set.
The "grubonly" configuration is retained, and enabled by
default when SeaGRUB is enabled (non-grubonly also available).
Due to lbmk issue #216, it is no longer Libreboot policy to
make GRUB the primary payload on any board. GRUB's sheer size
and complexity, plus the large number of memory corruption issues
similar to it that *have* been fixed over the years, tells me
that GRUB is a liability when it is the primary payload.
SeaBIOS is a much safer payload to run as primary, on x86, due
to its smaller size and much more conservative development; it
is simply far less likely to break.
If GRUB breaks in the future, the user's machine is not
bricked. This is because SeaBIOS is the default payload.
Since I no longer wish to ever provide GRUB as a primary
payload, supporting it in lbmk adds needless bloat that
will later probably break anyway due to lack of testing,
so let's just assume SeaGRUB in all cases where the user
wants to use a GRUB payload.
You can mitigate potential security issues with SeaBIOS
by disabling option ROM execution, which can be done at
runtime by inserting integers into CBFS. The SeaBIOS
documentation says how to do this.
Libreboot's GRUB hardening guide still says how to add
a bootorder file in CBFS, making SeaBIOS only load GRUB
from CBFS, and nothing else. This, combined with the
disablement of option ROM execution (if using Intel
graphics), pretty much provides the same security benefits
as GRUB-as-primary, for example when setting a GRUB password
and GPG checks, with encrypted /boot as in the hardening guide.

replace it with logic that simply uses "." to load
files directly. for this, "vcfg" is added as a variable
in coreboot target.cfg files, referring to a directory
in config/vendor/ containing a file named pkg.cfg, and
this file then contains the same variables as the
erstwhile config/vendor/sources
config/git files are now directories, also containing
pkg.cfg files each with the same variables as before,
such as repository link and commit hash
this change results in a noticeable reduction in code
complexity within the build system.
unified reading of config files: new function setcfg()
added to lib.sh
setcfg checks if a config exists. if a 2nd argument is
passed, it is used as a return value for eval, otherwise
a string calling err is passed. setcfg output is passed
through eval, to set strings based on config; eval must
be used, so that the variables are set within the same
scope, otherwise they'd be set within setcfg which could
lead to some whacky results.
there's still a bit more more to do, but this single change
results in a substantial reduction in code complexity.

this is bloat, because it's something the user can already
do at runtime configuration anyway.
set it to a reasonable default of 8 seconds instead of 5,
and don't honour the timeout variable in target.cfg.
this will be documented in the next release.

the background is only a few kb. the whole rationale
before was to limit the space used in memdisk, but this
decision was made when the background was much bigger;
it has since been optimised greatly, and the grub modules
were heavily reduce, so it should be safe.
grub's memdisk breaks when you add too much data to it.
as part of simplifying the rest of lbmk, this change removes
some more bloat from the rest of lbmk. handling this in the
memdisk is much simpler than handling it with cbfstool.
