2024-05-01correct dell latitude status for releaseLeah Rowe
it should be marked unstable, though these machines are basically reliable; they have certain missing features and quirky behaviour so it's important not to over-sell it mark it as unstable, on all of the dell latitudes Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

2024-04-28fix target.cfg files on dell latitudesLeah Rowe
some latitudes still used the old style for variables in target.cfg, specifically arch="x86_64" - lbmk used to then check that on a big if/else and translate it to the correct target name for crossgcc, e.g. i386-elf, arm-eabi now it just puts the arch directly, in a new variable: xarch change arch="x86_64" to xarch="i386-elf" in these files. also remove a few obsolete variables. should build now.

2024-04-26build/roms: report status when building imagesLeah Rowe
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" Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-04-26i945: switch boards to 20230625 coreboot revisionLeah Rowe
On T60 with Libreboot 20231106 and the GRUB payload, a user reported this error in GRUB when a battery was connected: "alloc magic is broken at 0x7b1aedf0: 0" This error disappears when a battery is not connected, or when using Libreboot 20230625. The issue has persisted through to LIbreboot 20240225 and after, and I believe the issue will be somewhere in coreboot, not in GRUB itself. For now, switch i945 laptops (X60, T60, Macbook2,1) back to the February 2023 coreboot revision used in Libreboot 20230625. A bisect can be done before the next Libreboot release, ETA May 2024, if time permits. Otherwise, this revert should solve the problem for now, at least so far as Libreboot is concerned. The following coreboot patches have been backported: commit 29030d0f3dad2ec6b86000dfe2c8e951ae80bf94 Author: Bill Xie <persmule@hardenedlinux.org> Date: Sat Oct 7 01:32:51 2023 +0800 drivers/pc80/rtc/option.c: Stop resetting CMOS during s3 resume Further patches from upstream: commit 432e92688eca0e85cbaebca3232f65936b305a98 Author: Bill Xie <persmule@hardenedlinux.org> Date: Fri Nov 3 12:34:01 2023 +0800 drivers/pc80/rtc/option.c: Reset only CMOS range covered by checksum These patches fixed S3 on GM45 machines, though it will be useful on the i945 machines aswell. The reason I'm doing it this way it is because I don't have a battery for my X60 or T60, and my T60 isn't in a very good state either, so I can't reproduce the error myself yet.

2024-04-26GRUB: bump to today's latest revisionLeah Rowe
GRUB has not pushed many patches to master since the recent 2.12 release, but there are a number of interesting fixes. libreboot is doing a release soon. bump to latest grub revision. Some of the new patches in GRUB are interesting: XFS fixes: "fs/xfs: Handle non-continuous data blocks in directory extents" 68dd65cfdaad08b1f8ec01b84949b0bf88bc0d8c Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2254370 Apparently, XFS could not boot in some reports, though this was likely with BIOS or UEFI GRUB; no such reports were made to libreboot "gfxmenu/view: Resolve false grub_errno disrupting boot process" 39c927df66c7ca62d97905d1385054ac9ce67209 "util/grub-fstest: Add a new command zfs-bootfs" 28c4405208cfb6e2cea737f6cbaf17e631bac6cd The gnulib revision does not need to be updated at this time.

2024-04-25hp820g2: allow building, but don't do release ROMsLeah Rowe
at present, the inject scripts compress refcode in a way that is not reproducible, so there's no way to verify that the firmware is correct, via checksum verification, when injecting vendor code on release images the lack of reproducibility in recompression will have to be addressed, but the issue is that lbmk does not provide its own sources for compression utilities, instead opting to use the system's own compression utility so the solution might be for lbmk not to use the host's utility, and compile its own, or insert the refcode uncompressed. for now, simply disable the hp 820 g2 target in libreboot releases this uses the same logic recently implemented for excluding mrc-based haswell images in libreboot releases Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-04-24haswell: only provide NRI-based ROMs in releasesLeah Rowe
release="n" is set in target.cfg on haswell build targets that use mrc.bin script/update/release exports LBMK_RELEASE="y" script/build/roms skips building a given target if release="n" in target.cfg *and* LBMK_RELEASE="y" you could also do the export yourself before running ./build roms, for example: export LBMK_RELEASE="y" ./build roms all This would skip these ROM images. The native haswell raminit is now stable enough in my testing, that I wish to delete the MRC-based targets. This is in line with Libreboot's Binary Blob Reduction Policy, which states: if a blob can be avoided, it should be avoided. The problem is that users often run the inject script in *lbmk* from Git, instead of from the src release archive. I forsee some users running this on modern lbmk with older release images. If the mrc-based target isn't there, the user may use an NRI-based target name, and think it works; they will insert without MRC. I foresaw this ages ago, which is why Caleb and I ensured that the script checks hashes, and hashes are included in releases. Therefore: for the time being, keep the MRC-based configs in lbmk but do not include images for them in releases. This can be done indefinitely, but I'll probably remove those configs entirely at some point. On the following boards, Libreboot now will *only* provide NRI-based ROM images for the following machines: * Dell OptiPlex 9020 SFF * Dell OptiPlex 9020 MT * Lenovo ThinkPad T440p * Lenovo ThinkPad W541/W540 I now recommend exclusive use of NRI-based images, on Haswell hardware. It's stable enough in my testing, and now supports S3. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-04-219020 sff/mt: fix bad gpio read on hwm patchLeah Rowe
sff happened to work, but mt would not boot with the patch, because it called die() on unknown chassis type, and the gpio happened to have a bad value in the old patch, because it wasn't reading the right gpio. i tested the fix on the old patch, but then decided to use mate's new patch because instead of calling die(), it simply boots with fan control disabled (max fan speed in that case), if this happens again. mt and sff have both been tested with this new version of the patch. both of them boot, and they both have proper fan control.

2024-04-06enable grub payload on libremrc w541/t440pLeah Rowe
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. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-04-06add t440p/w541 configs using broadwell mrcLeah Rowe
broadwell mrc enables both igpu and dgpu to be enabled at any given time. if the onboard (intel) gpu is set as primary, the logic to disable it is not executed within coreboot; instead, the igpu is used for vga decode. on some t440p/w541 thinkpads, both an intel and nvidia gpu are present. in this setup, the intel gpu must be used for vga, and all output, but rendering can be offloaded to the nvidia gpu (nvidia optimus). optimus would never work on haswell mrc.bin, because it always disables the igpu when a dgpu is present, so a hack exists in coreboot that hides the dgpu from mrc, so that the igpu remains enabled. broadwell mrc doesn't do this, so the option to hide PEG devices has been disabled in these configs. the broadwell mrc has better peg device handling, and can support 16gb modules on broadwell hardware; it may well support these modules on haswell hardware too, though ddr3 sodimms are very hard to find (and expensive). (and currently untested, with this patch) Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-04-06add 9020 sff/mt targets that use broadwell mrcLeah Rowe
broadwell mrc has better peg handling and can support 16gb modules on broadwell machines - the blob can be used on haswell machines too, instead of haswell mrc, and it might support 16gb modules on these machines (not yet tested, but using broadwell mrc does at least boot as reliably as haswell mrc anyway) one little quirk with haswell mrc is that it actually handles vga decode, disabling the igpu entirely, when a dgpu is used. the broadwell mrc enables both GPUs and does not handle vga decoding, so we must handle this the usual way; my patch for this was merged upstream and i'm also adding it to libreboot, which currently uses an older coreboot revision. this is needed for dgpu to work. see patch: 0040-nb-haswell-Disable-iGPU-when-dGPU-is-used.patch broadwell mrc may also make dealing with nvidia optimus setups more reliable, on laptops that have nvidia GPUs, but this patch does not add bmrc configs for t440p/w541 NOTE: on t440p/w541 laptops with nvidia graphics, the video output is wired to intel but rendering can be offloaded to nvidia. in this setup, we want vga decode to be done on intel, so i've set these configs to enable CONFIG_ONBOARD_VGA_IS_PRIMARY (set it to y) Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-04-05grub xhci supportLeah Rowe
see: https://github.com/9elements/grub/commits/xhci-module-upstreaming-squash_v4/ grub only supports xhci on bios/uefi targets, but not coreboot. some newer machines don't have ps/2 controllers, and boot in a way where ehci isn't available at startup; the controller can't be used by ehci code, there must be xhci support. the code is from Patrick Rudolph working on behalf of 9elements. the code was also sent here for review: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2020-12/msg00111.html however, upstream never merged these patches. libreboot will have to maintain these from now on. the patches have been rebased for use with grub 2.12.

2024-03-02coreboot/dell9020*_12mb: Disable IOMMU by defaultLeah Rowe
Needed to make graphics cards work. Turn it on if you're using only the Intel GPU. With IOMMU *enabled*, graphics cards do not work reliably at all. The cause still needs to be investigated, but the symptoms are graphical corruption on the screen, and Xorg usually crashes. In some cases (on some cards), TTYs can still be used; the payload can still be used reliably, on a graphics card, but Xorg fails to work properly. This could be a bug in Linux drivers, instead of anything that coreboot does (not yet tested in factory BIOS). Leaving it off by default will ensure reliable operation on all setups, whether an iGPU or dGPU is used. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2024-03-02coreboot/haswell: make IOMMU a runtime optionLeah Rowe
It is now possible to disable the IOMMU on Haswell boards, by doing this on your ROM image: ./nvramtool -C libreboot.rom -w iommu=Disable To enable it again, do this: ./nvramtool -C libreboot.rom -w iommu=Enable If not specified, the default behaviour is *on*. A follow-up patch will turn IOMMU *off* by default, on Dell OptiPlex 9020 SFF/MT, by setting it as such in cmos.default. This is to make graphics cards work properly to work around a bug when it's turned on. Leaving the IOMMU enabled is recommended, if it works. It works in most cases, including on 9020 SFF/MT when using the Intel GPU without a graphics card inserted. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
