2023-05-27unify download/build scriptsLeah Rowe
move resources/scripts/download/ to: resources/scripts/update/module/ This: ./download coreboot Is now: ./update module coreboot However, running "./download coreboot" still works, via backwards compatibility. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-05-27Remove most of Ferass's lbmk contributionsLeah Rowe
The primary purpose of my intense auditing has been to improve lbmk's coding style and fix bugs but there is a secondary purpose: know precisely who owns what, because I want to re-license as much as possible of lbmk under *MIT*, instead of the current GNU licensing. MIT is vastly superior, because it grants *actual* freedom to the user, permits *sublicensing* and it is vastly more compatible with other GPL combinations; for example, MIT license is compatible with GPL2-only whereas lbmk's current mix of GPLv3-or-later and GPLv3-only is legally incompatible with GPLv2-only. Re-licensing under MIT will most likely result in more contributions to Libreboot's build system in the future, especially as it will attract a lot more commercial interest. Contrary to the popular arguments, copyleft is a liability to the free software movement and results in less code being written; in practise, permissively licensed code gets more public contributions, including from commercial entities, even if companies can theoretically make something proprietary out of it (in practise, anyone inclined can just use the upstream and proprietary forks almost always die). Copyleft propaganda is fundamentally flawed. See: <https://unixsheikh.com/articles/the-problems-with-the-gpl.html> Anyway, I've been doing a combination of: * Seeking permission from other copyright holders, for re-licensing * Deleting, or moving, other contributions; for example, splitting certain contributions into separate files so that originally modified files become unencumbered. This latter solution is a result of *code cleanup* arising from the audit. For Ferass's contributions, I opted to seek *permission*, and permission was denied. In full compliance with this legal imperative, I'm acting accordingly; this commit removes all of Ferass's changes that converted lbmk to posix shell scripts, thus removing his copyright on the affected files, bypassing his authority entirely. Therefore, lbmk is largely now bash-dependent. In practise, nobody is going to use anything other than a GNU system to build Libreboot, because many projects that Libreboot makes use of rely heavily on GNU; for example, coreboot's build system makes heavy use of GNU-specific extensions in *GNU Make*, and likely contains many bashisms. Of course, Libreboot also compiles GNU GRUB. I would much rather have MIT-licensed Bash scripts than GPL-licensed posix SCL scripts. This reverts the changes from Ferass El Hafidi, for the following commits, with some exceptions: * 7f5dfebf7d37c56d9c7993aaa17c59070cb5aec9 * f787044642236917c9c4dbcaa48a6b0648097db0 Exception: download/mrc not reverted, because that was already a fork of an existing script under coreboot's build system, and their script was GPLv2. i cannot/will not re-license this file (ergo, 7f5dfebf7d37c56d9c7993aaa17c59070cb5aec9 change remains intact, on this file) resources/scripts/build/boot/roms_helper, these changes have been kept: * 7e6691e9 - Add ARMv7 and AArch64 support * dec2d720 - add myself in the build/roms_helper script (added 2021 copyright for the change below) * b7405656 - Workaround for grub's slow boot ^ these changes will be re-factored, splitting them out of the file into a new file. This will be done in a future lbmk revision. (in some cases, it makes sense to keep a change but split it, allowing the main file to be re-licensed without the change in it) This is part of a much larger series of licensing audits. It's likely that lbmk will be posix-compliant (in its shell scripts) again some day, because I'm planning to rewrite most of these scripts (the ones modified in this patch), and many of them (e.g. individual download scripts) are subject to future deletion in a planned overhaul of the download logic for third party projects. In addition: these changes are being kept (no attempt to re-license them will be made): * cff081c6 - Fix grub's slow boot (1 year, 5 months ago) <Vitali64> * 4c851889 - Add macbook*1 16mb configs (1 year, 6 months ago) <Vitali64> Ferass's work that remains will be split into dedicated files containing them, where feasible. In the case of grub.cfg (for GNU GRUB), I don't care because it's a script for an engine (GRUB shell) that's under GPL anyway, so who really cares about MIT license.

it is not necessary to have help output similarly, listing all boards in this script is pointless. why not just run ls -1 on the directory?

2023-05-15download/coreboot: minor code cleanupLeah Rowe
i'm pretty much finished now there might be a few more changes later, like stricter error handling, more verbose error messages, etc right now, it relies on -e to kill lbmk on error, and uses the exit command another planned change it to support other upstreams besides coreboot.org, such as the dasharo codebase the latter is *why* i refactored this download script, for asus kgped-d16

2023-05-15download/coreboot: tidy up variable namesLeah Rowe
2023-05-15download/coreboot: run extra.sh from cbtreeLeah Rowe
to my knowledge, this feature has never been used, but lbmk permits resources/coreboot/boardname/extra.sh to execute, as provided by the maintainer, with working directory set to: coreboot/boardname this could be used to extend lbmk in a number of ways for example, it could be used to patch 3rdparty/ it could also be used to break coreboot in creative and novel ways. hint hint.
2023-05-15download/coreboot: avoid variable conflictLeah Rowe
the "board" variable in prepare_new_coreboot_tree() is also declared in fetch_coreboot_trees for the one in prepare_new_coreboot_tree, it's passed as an argument to the function, so give it a new name i learned that some shells have a global scope, when using variables of the same name between functions
2023-05-15download/coreboot: fix downloads without argumentLeah Rowe
this should download all trees: ./download coreboot without this patch, it doesn't with this patch, it works i overlooked this during earlier refactoring. auditing revealed it.
2023-05-15download/coreboot: much cleaner coding styleLeah Rowe
top-down order, and *still* rfc 3676 compliant i finished simplifying the logic, and i split everything into smaller functions there is still more more polishing to do final touches will be done in new revisions
2023-05-15download/coreboot: clone upstream via ./gitcloneLeah Rowe
coreboot trees/patching is still handled specifically by "./download coreboot" command now available in lbmk: ./gitclone coreboot this *only* creates the directory at: coreboot/coreboot this directory is never used in builds. it is only used by download/coreboot to create patched trees for each mainboard

2022-08-27download: Use shallow clones for big projectsAlper Nebi Yasak
Downloading coreboot and U-Boot takes quite the disk space and bandwith. We don't need to download entire repos, only the revisions that we are interested in. Use the --depth=1 option to only download the files we need. Since the initial clones may not have our target revision, always try to fetch it.

2022-08-27download: Allow keeping .git dirs with NODELETE=gitAlper Nebi Yasak
Keeping the git repositories is useful while development, e.g. to avoid git cloning repositories over and over again while debugging download scripts. Setting the NODELETE environment variable keeps the blobs and the git repositories. Allow a slightly finer-tuned version of this where we can keep only the git-related files by setting the variable to "git". Signed-off-by: Alper Nebi Yasak <alpernebiyasak@gmail.com>
2022-03-06scripts: download: coreboot: fix ./download allDenis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
When running ./download all, we have the following error: resources/scripts/download/coreboot: Line 52: $1 is not set. The ./download all command was broken by the following commit: 2bb805e2e07a7d3e1268a09d720ecd13e26af418 (download: Add --help in the individual download scripts).

2022-02-16download: Add --help in the individual download scriptsDenis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
This doesn't change the existing usage of the scripts: - For the Coreboot script, before this change, all arguments that were passed were considered as board to download the Coreboot source code for. Here we added the '--help' and '--list-boards' arguments, so it should not be an issue as it is extremely unlikely that a board would be called '--help' or '--list-boards'. - All the other scripts don't use any arguments so passing --help should not conflict with the existing usage.

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
