2022-02-16u-boot-stable-src-release: rename to u-boot-libreDenis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
If the script is named u-boot-stable-src-release and that users see an u-boot-libre tarball they will not make the link between both unless we rename the script. Signed-off-by: Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli <GNUtoo@cyberdimension.org>
2022-02-16u-boot-stable-src-release: follow u-boot and linux-libre naming conventionsDenis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
Many people using FSDG compliant distributions or wanting to use one are already familiar with linux-libre. This change renames the resulting tarball to u-boot-libre to make it easier for people to understand the goal of this tarball. In addition we also rename the version from v2021.07 (which is the git tag corresponding to the release) to 2021.07 as u-boot upstream tarballs use that. The revision wasn't bumped as we didn't have any releases of u-boot-libre yet. Signed-off-by: Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli <GNUtoo@cyberdimension.org>
2022-02-10Add support for releasing deblobbed u-boot 2020.07 source tarballsDenis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
Once the tarball are released, it will enable distributions to use these tarballs to produce deblobbed u-boot packages. Note that the produced tarball is not reproducible yet. Because of that it has to be trusted. During a release, it's a good idea to sign the uncompressed tarball as the various compression formats and associated tools make different tradeoffs. For instance with xz, xz -9e tends to compress really well with the the most used xz[1] implementation, and most GNU/Linux users probably already have it installed, but and the drawbacks is that the format is very fragile[2]. The lzip format is more suited for long term archiving but its most packaged implementation[3] is less likely to be already installed by users than more well known formats like xz, bzip2 or gzip. Being able to add more compression formats after the release is also useful, for instance to accommodate different build systems or use cases (like being able to build u-boot with less dependencies in distributions like Guix, or building u-boot directly on devices which don't have enough RAM for xz for instance).

hardcode everything. in practise, the new logic will work just the same in almost all cases, for most people, but it works around performance issues in grub. cleanup of grub.cfg will be done in the next commit
2021-12-29grub.cfg: optimize search_isolinuxLeah Rowe
GRUB is slow at device enumeration. This patch works around it in the same way as vitali64's recent patch.
2021-12-29Fix grub's slow bootVitali64
On many boards, grub takes a very long time to search for a grub.cfg file on the disk. The problem is the search_grub function which takes a long time to complete. I (vitali64) studied the grub.cfg from 2016 and the grub.cfg from 2021 and optimized the grub.cfg. It should be faster now.

2021-12-01Fix broken SpeedStep on GM45 laptops such as ThinkPad X200, T400, T500, W500Leah Rowe
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.
