This was only tested on the iGPU model, though a dGPU model does exist.
The vendor firmware used a 16KiB gbe.bin, which was modified with a
random MAC address as well as shrinking it to 8KiB. As with the E6400,
GRUB doesn't like the way the EC implements the keyboard controller and
thus GRUB payloads are disabled at this time. Suspend does not currently
work, and this is believed to be due to the EC controlling the DRAM
reset gate which is required to prevent DRAM from being reset on resume.
With some tweaks, the e6400-flash-unlock utility also works on this
system, though both flash chips can be accessed through removal of only
the keyboard.

coreboot revision:
d86260a134575b083f35103e1cd5c7c7ad883bce
from 2 August 2023
The patches were updated. HP 8300 USDT has now been merged upstream,
so that patch is no longer included in lbmk.
SD card fix for E6400 merged upstream, so now it's removed in lbmk.
The nvidia E6400 patch (devicetree.cb) has not yet merged upstream.
The ifdtool --nuke option has been rebased.
Patches as follow-ups to earlier patches removed; for example, patches
that set VRAM to 352MB on GM45 have been removed, and replaced with
patches that just set 256MB in the first place (this is more stable).
This was mostly a clean rebase, of all the patches. It went smooth.
I haven't updated cros/haswell yet; the 4.11_branch revision used
on fam15h will also remain, for now.
The coreboot configurations have been updated, for this new
revision of coreboot.

Still on Gerrit. ME downloader failed with HP update file, so let's just
use Lenovo's instead. Both contain identical ME8_5M_Production.bin files.
Tested and working:
* Native raminit with both DIMMs
* Libgfxinit textmode and framebuffer on both DisplayPorts and VGA
* External USB2 and USB3 ports: they all work
* USB 3.0 SuperSpeed (rear, 4 ports)
* Ethernet
* Mini-PCIe WLAN
* SATA: 2.5" SSD and optical drive bay
* SeaBIOS and GRUB (boot to linux)
* PS/2 keyboard and mouse
* S3 suspend and resume, wake using USB keyboard
* Headphone output, line out, internal speaker
* Wake on LAN
* Rebooting
* CMOS options & nvramcui
Untested:
* Line in, mic input
* MXM graphics card
* EHCI debug
Not working:
* Mini-PCIe USB: I couldn't get it working on vendor BIOS either, so
maybe it just isn't present
* PS/2 keyboard wake from S3
* mSATA (I have no mSATA drives)

This fixes the PCI interrupt routing tables for the E6400 so that the SD
card works. It is already merged in upstream but libreboot has not yet
updated coreboot.

I added this in upstream to prevent people from accidentally flashing
roms without a payload resulting in a no boot situation, but in
libreboot lbmk handles the payload and thus this warning always comes
up. This has caused confusion and concern so just patch it out.

python 3 is default now, in all the distros
specifically calling "python3" often doesn't work anymore
python2 is obsolete
let python2 die

libreboot will still include microcode updates
by default, but mitigations against broken speedstep
and reboot (when microcode updates are excluded) were
removed following the merge with osboot
this patch restores those mitigations; the patch
reverts coreboot to older smrr code (which works fine, it
isn't critical to use the new behaviour) and disables peci
(pointless feature)
i'll probably re-tool this later to apply the changes
conditionally to whether ucode is present
this is not a change in policy. policy says:
include cpu microcode updates by default
policy also says:
libreboot must be configurable
microcode removal via cbfstool remove -n, counts as
configuration, and in practise is not possible on
gm45 patches in current libreboot; this patch corrects
that problem, allowing the machines to work somewhat
well (same stability issues as before, like MCE errors
resulting in kernel panic on high CPU/memory usage,
but i digress)
happy... hacking

352MB VRAM causes stability issues, according to some reports
users can still set it to the higher level when building, if
they wish to

|

e.g.
./ifdtool --nuke me coreboot.rom
this will be used by rom release build scripts, to scrub
stuff like intel me from the rom

New x230edp_12mb target uses the
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/28950 patchset to add an
X230_EDP target to the default coreboot branch.
Consequently the "fhd" coreboot branch is no longer needed and has
been safely removed.

osboot is now part of libreboot, and will soon shut down.
libreboot now conforms to osboot policy.

with this change, it's unlikely we'll hit errors again. previously,
some projects used were calling "python" which in context was
python3, but on some setups, the user only has python2 and python3
but no symlink for "python" (which if exists, we assumed linked to
python3)
now it's unambiguous. docs/build/ can probably be updated now, as
a result of this change, to remove the advice about that

Coreboot is enabling PECI on these CPUs which, according to Intel erratum, must
only be done after loading microcode updates, otherwise the CPUID feature set
becomes corrupted. That's my understanding, and I think this is why SpeedStep
is broken. To be specific, it could but but operating systems no longer detect
that the feature is supported. In any case, belgin on IRC found the commit in
coreboot, after a bisect, enabling PECI. This commit in Libreboot adds a patch,
reverting coreboot's PECI patch.

tianocore is a liability for the libreboot project. it's a bloated mess, and
unreliable, broken on many boards, and basically impossible to audit.
i don't trust tianocore, so i'm removing it.

See:
<https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-08/msg00063.html>
This enables all SATA ports, allowing full T400s compatibility. T400s already
works just fine, when flashing a T400 ROM, but not all SATA ports were usable.
The specific patch is here:
<https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-08/txtgT_L8DC94R.txt>
There was also this patch, which coreboot actually adapted upstream:
<https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-08/txtMXyws85Q_P.txt>
Yes, this patch was submitted in 2016. I overlooked it, during all this time.

mitigate missing characters in unifont for border/arrow characters. this saves
space because now it is no longer necessary to add a custom font
the background added has the libreboot logo on it, and it's 10kb in size unlike
the old gnulove background that was hundreds of KB

This fixes issue 3:
https://notabug.org/libreboot/lbmk/issues/3
In this issue, GM45 laptops such as X200/T400 will hang on reboot (normal boot
works, and shutting down works too).

this is forked from the "libre" branch in osboot, which is itself a libre,
deblobbed fork of osboot, a blobbed up fork of libreboot
libreboot needed to be purged clean. this is the new libreboot development
repository. the old one has been abandoned
