it's preferable that the vram setting be as high as
feasible, for users. we overlooked this on some
newer platforms that were added, over several
releases. these levels won't offend most users,
and people who want less can always turn it down

Faulty keyboards make GRUB unusable. Normally it happens
when a user plugs in a faulty USB keyboard, but if it's
the laptop keyboard, then GRUB becomes unusable and the
user cannot boot anything.
So, your laptop keyboard is a ticking timebomb if you use
GRUB; with this patch, that's no longer the case.

My previous fix to revert didn't fix S3 on GM45, one
of the platforms reported fixed by 78263; I'm merging
that instead, at patch set 10.
It is referenced by 78815/1 which was split from it,
so merge that too (restores overrides of higher values,
on certain platforms that we don't use yet).

also, enable seabios_withgrub on e6400, but not grubfirst;
right now, we also support dgpu which would brick on
grubfirst. on my tested nvidia model, loading grub from
seabios worked, so i'm going to re-add seabios_grubfirst
functionality like in older libreboot revisions, enabled
selectively on a given target.
e6430 currently only has igpu support anyway, but i've done
the same thing there, in anticipation of future dgpu support.
e6400 and e6430 ec report scancode set 2 with translation
by default, but only actually output scancode set 1
grub is trying to use scancode set 2 without scancode
translation, so the key inputs get messed up
fix it by forcing scancode set 2 with translation, but
only on coreboot; other build targets on GRUB will
retain the same behaviour as before
courtesy goes to Nicholas Chin who inspired me, and
helped me to fix this. tested on Nicholas's E6400
and E6430, and my E6400; Riku also tested it on
non-Dell, as did I (some thinkpads), and all seems OK.
The new behaviour in coreboot GRUB is essentially no
different to that of SeaBIOS, which does the same.

The original motherboard uses a 512kB flash chip size, however
I replaced the original chip with a bigger one (8MB).

the patch included in this revision is pulled from:
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/54024/2
contrary to hell's assertion of "not for merge", this does
in fact work nicely on a dell e6400; nicholas chin tested
on e6400 and found that those RCOMP values are the same
nicholas was testing some errant modules that seemed to
fail raminit in coreboot. in some cases, dell e6400 would
regularly fail coldboot even though reboot was ok; this was
therefore the cause of suspicioun for it being raminit-related
with this patch from hell (Angel Pons, but knows as hell
on IRC) it should fix boot issue on Dell Latitude E6400

note: me6_update_parser needs to be written, similar
to me7_update_parser, to generate the partition
tables within intel me6 on lenovo bios updates.
the current logic in lbmk goes like this:
mkdir -p vendorfiles/cache/
and save your factory dump as:
vendorfiles/cache/x201_factory.rom
the build system has been modified, in such a way
as to support extracting me.bin (which is the full
one) and then neutering from this.
this is done automatically, if the file is present,
but you must first insert that file there, which means
you'll need a dump of the original boot flash on your
thinkpad x201

the patch:
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/78270
this has been reverted, because it caused s3 resume
issues on most intel laptops in libreboot.
i was going to merge this instead:
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/78623
however, it's under review, and this doesn't change
to the old behaviour; it keeps the new universal
config, but changes the default
we know the old logic works, so keep that for now.
in fact, the offending patch was only merged to
main in coreboot, one day before i recently
updated coreboot revs in coreboot/default - i used
a 12 october revision, the patch above is 11 october
i then ran "./update trees -u coreboot" which updated
the heap sizes back to the old defaults. this should
fix s3 suspend/resume where it was broken, in the
libreboot 20231021 release - a point release with this
and a few other fixes is planned soon.

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.

gru_bob fails to build without python-setuptools. this isn't a huge issue,
because most users probably have it already as many other python programs
depend on it too. that's probably why no one noticed until now,
when i tried to do this on a fresh artix install uncontaminated by python.
i also sorted and deduplicated the packages with 'sort -u'.

github's httpd b0rked the fuck out and i didn't want to wait
for them to fix it (ssl cert error) before i continued a build.
i now host the relevant acpica tarball on libreboot rsync,
mirrored to princeton.

it's not used by anywhere else in lbmk, but the release build
script will automatically download each project named as per
file names in config/git/
this is a stupidly simply way to prove documentation in

notabug is unreliable, even as a backup.
why, just today, it was offline! all day.
i originally moved libreboot away from notabug,
to codeberg instead, but kept the notabug account
online, and i still push to it when it's online.
however, notabug seems to be in a terminal state
of neglect by its admins, so lbmk should not use it.

don't put multiple downloads in the same files, except
when they are dependencies that go inside the directory
of another download.
by doing this, the following functionality will become
possible: clean every project or build every project,
or maybe fetch every project, based entirely on the
names of these files.
this will be used later to simplify the release script.

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

i previously added this just for kicks, but it's not
actually needed; gnat isn't used on fam15h boards so
lbmk doesn't even use it (it's disabled).
in fact, i tested lbmk with crossgcc_ada handling
taken out, but with said patch; i still got build
errors with gnat anyway, on that old coreboot
revision (but gnat isn't needed there anymore).

We don't really need a custom coreboot tree for Chromebooks. I had added
one, because at a cursory glance to the available config/coreboot/board
subdirectories I had the impression that I should. But upstreams have
one tree for every board and I think we should move towards that too.
Move the one important BL31 makefile patch into the default coreboot
patches, update the gru boards' configs by running savedefconfig in the
cros tree and then running olddefconfig in the default tree.

By default U-Boot stores EFI variables in a ubootefi.var file in
whatever EFI System Partition it finds, which would be a FAT filesystem.
I'm occasionally finding out while testing that my ESPs somehow end up
with a corrupted filesystem, and I'm suspecting it's this.
For now, disable storing EFI environment variables on disk so that
U-Boot doesn't try to manipulate the filesystem.

Normally U-Boot immediately resets the board on a panic. I had run into
"Synchronous Abort"s from shim and rEFInd, and having a traceback in
those cases can be useful. Hang instead of resetting, so the panic
reason stays on the screen.

U-Boot can keep a "copy" framebuffer to read from, for devices where
reading from hardware framebuffer is expensive. This needs the video
driver to support it. The Rockchip video driver doesn't need or support
it, so this option does nothing on gru boards. Disable it.

U-Boot upstream used to have 16KB for EFI variables, and this was
causing problems with shim. Commit f0236acbc663 ("u-boot: Increase EFI
variable buffer size") fixed this by raising it to 32KB in our builds.
It has now been raised to 64K upstream, so raise it here as well.

For Rockchip boards U-Boot tries to build SPI and MMC images that
require an externally built BL31 file to be provided, and the build
fails otherwise. This is not really as configurable as it should be.
In Libreboot, we only care about the build outputs for U-Boot proper.
There is a BL31 built during our coreboot builds, but using that in
U-Boot builds is a chicken-and-egg problem. Building BL31 outside the
coreboot build and passing it to both projects is possible, but needs
work.
For now, stop trying to build these U-Boot-only images as a workaround,
by removing the binman image descriptions from the device-tree sources.
Additionally, disable in our configs the BINMAN_FDT functionality that
allows using these at runtime as it requires them to be present.
