2023-08-26much, much stricter, more verbose error handlingLeah Rowe
lbmk is much more likely to crash now, in error conditions, which is a boon for further auditing. also: in "fetch", remove the downloaded program if fail() was called. this would also be done for gnulib, when downloading grub, but done in such a way that gnulib goes first. where calls to err write "ERROR" in the string, they no longer say "ERROR" because the "err" function itself now does that automatically. also: listmodes/listoptions (in "lbmk") now reports an error if no scripts and/or directories are found. also: where a warning is given, but not an error, i've gone through in some places and redirected the output to stderr, not stdout as part of error checks: running anything as root, except for the "./build dependencies *" commands, is no longer permitted and lbmk will throw an error mrc downloads: debugfs output no longer redirected to /dev/null, and stderr no longer redirected to stdout. everything is verbose. certain non-error states are also more verbose. for example, patch_rom in blobs/inject will now state when injection succeeds certain actual errors(bugs) were fixed: for example, build/release/roms now correctly prepares the blobs hash files for a given target, containing only the files and checksums in the list. Previously, a printf message was included. Now, with this new code: blobutil/inject rightly verifies hashes. doing all of this in one giant patch is cleaner than 100 patches changing each file. even this is yet part of a much larger audit going on in the Libreboot project.

2023-08-24use the new coding style in scriptsLeah Rowe
there were stragglers left over from the last audit, and these stragglers still exist even after all the major re-factoring as of late the new style is: bsd-like coding style and error handling. verbose yet simple error handling. we use an "err" function in a way reminiscent of most C programs that you see in openbsd base (err.h) this style is very clean, resulting in readable code Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-08-23scripts: never exit 1, always call err insteadLeah Rowe
this same change has been applied, selectively, to certain return statements. the general rule is this: the return statement should only be used to direct logic within a script, where certain non-errors states are used to skip certain actions; the exit command should *never* be used to return non-zero, except by err(). in so doing, we ensure easier debugging of the build system also: strip_rom_image in build/release/roms was running "continue" when a rom file didn't exist, despite not being a while/for loop. i make it return (non-error condition) instead it's ok for a script to exit 0, where appropriate, but perhaps a function could also be written for it Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-08-21general code cleanup on lbmk shell scriptsLeah Rowe
in update/blobs/download, i saw instances where appdir was being deleted with rm -r, but the more appropriate command would rm -Rf. this is now fixed. other than that, i've mostly just simplified a bunch of if statements and consolidated some duplicated logic (e.g. if/else block for dependencies in build_dependencies() of update/blobs/download one or two functions and/or variables have been renamed, for greater clarity in the code, also removed a few messages that were redundant used printf instead of echo, in a few places, also fixed up the indentation in a few places Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-08-20unify most module build scriptsLeah Rowe
Some of them weren't even used at all, such as the flashrom build script. the bios_extract build script existed but was never used, because we only called (from blobutil) a python script from in there, without actually compiling anything! resources/script/build/src/for Usage, e.g.: ./build src for memtest86plus It also handles fetch. This script is intended largely for those codebases that are quite simple, requiring trivial or no intervention besides running "make". 37 sloc reduction. Not a lot, but the audit continues! These optimisations add up. I started at 3300 sloc in resources/scripts and me target is 2k (2000) sloc. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
