I am planning to write a document for new man, helping them to build a
working image from knowing nothing about Coreboot. The previous
LinuxBIOS-AMD64.tex was a good script.
LinuxBIOS was a out-of-date name. It needs to be changed it to Coreboot.
And the new document is not specific to AMD, so we get rid of the AMD64 from
the file name.
This is a separate patch for the renaming.
LinuxBIOS-AMD64.tex was still about SVN and buildtarget. Later patch
will come up for updating those old thing. And this new document,
CorebootBuildingGuide.tex, is planning to be only about building.
Navigating the source code is moved to later advanced document.

This option has never had much if any use. It solved a problem over 10
years ago that resulted from an argument over the value or lack thereof
of including all the debug strings in a coreboot image. The answer is
in: it's a good idea to maintain the capability to print all messages,
for many reasons.
This option is also misleading people, as in a recent discussion, to
believe that log messges are controlled at build time in a way they are
not. For the record, from this day forward, we can print messages at all
log levels and the default log level is set at boot time, as directed by
DEFAULT_CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL. You can set the default to 0 at build time and
if you are having trouble override it in CMOS and get more messages.
Besides, a quick glance shows it's always set to max (9 in this case) in
the very few cases (1) in which it is set.

In order to provide some insight on what code is executed during
coreboot's run time and how well our test scenarios work, this
adds code coverage support to coreboot's ram stage. This should
be easily adaptable for payloads, and maybe even romstage.
See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Gcov.html for
more information.
To instrument coreboot, select CONFIG_COVERAGE ("Code coverage
support") in Kconfig, and recompile coreboot. coreboot will then
store its code coverage information into CBMEM, if possible.
Then, run "cbmem -CV" as root on the target system running the
instrumented coreboot binary. This will create a whole bunch of
.gcda files that contain coverage information. Tar them up, copy
them to your build system machine, and untar them. Then you can
use your favorite coverage utility (gcov, lcov, ...) to visualize
code coverage.
For a sneak peak of what will expect you, please take a look
at http://www.coreboot.org/~stepan/coreboot-coverage/
