The current implementation of creating rmodules relies
on invoking the linker in a certain manner with the
relocations overlaid on the BSS section. It's not really
surprising that the linker doesn't always behave the way
one wants depending on the linker used and the architecture.
Instead, introduce rmodtool which takes an ELF file as an
input, parses it, and creates a new ELF file in the format
the rmodule loader expects.

Since a long time GRUB 2 is a viable payload alternative to SeaBIOS and
FILO. So make it easy for coreboot users to use GRUB 2 as a payload by
integrating it into coreboot’s build system, so it can be selected in
Kconfig.
As the last GRUB 2 release 2.00 is too old and has several bugs when
used as a coreboot payload only allow to build GRUB 2 master until a new
GRUB release is done. The downside is, that accidental breakage in
GRUB’s upstream does not affect coreboot users.
Currently the GRUB 2 payload is built with the default modules which
results in an uncompressed size of around 730 kB. Compressed it has a
size of 340 kB, so it should be useable with 512 kB flash ROMs.
Tested with QEMU.

This is the first major re-work for the board status script.
Summary:
- Added a command to the getrevision.sh script to retrieve tagged
revision.
- Results are placed in a dynamically generated temporary location.
This makes it easy to do multiple trial runs and avoids polluting
the coreboot directory.
- Results are stored in a directory with the following form:
<vendor>/<mainboard>/<tagged_revision>/<timestamp>/
Vendor and mainboard are obtained from CONFIG_MAINBOARD_DIR so that
hierarchy is consistent between coreboot and board-status.
- The results directory is used as the commit message.
- board-status repository is checked out automatically if results are
to be uploaded.
TODO:
- Add ability to run commands which may fail. Currently we assume
any failure should terminate the script, but some commands can be
made optional.
Successfully uploaded first result to board-status repository. See
http://review.coreboot.org/gitweb?p=board-status.git;a=summary .

This new tool called `ifdfake` just creates an empty Intel Firmware
Descriptor (IFD) and writes the IFD signature plus the section layout
given on the command line.
usage: ifdfake [(-b|-m|-g|-p) <start>:<end>]... <output file>
-b | --bios <start>:<end> BIOS region
-m | --me <start>:<end> Intel ME region
-g | --gbe <start>:<end> Gigabit Ethernet region
-p | --platform <start>:<end> Platform Data region
-h | --help print this help
<start> and <end> bounds are given in Bytes, the <end> bound is inclusive.
All regions must be multiples of 4K in size and 4K aligned.
The descriptor region always resides in the first 4K.
An IFD created with ifdfake won't work as a replacement for a real IFD.
Never try to flash such an IFD to your board!
The output of ifdfake can be utilized to build an image with just the
later added sections (like coreboot itself) being valid. The resulting
image can then be partially written to a machines flash ROM to just
update coreboot (i.e. the BIOS section).

Coreboot and u-boot create a table of timestamps which allows to see
the boot process performance. The util/cbmem/cbmem.py script allows to
access the table after ChromeOS boots up and display its contents on
the console. The problem is that shipping images do not include Python
interpreter, so there is no way to access the table on a production
machine.
This change introduces a utility which is a Linux app displaying the
timestamp table. Conceivably the output of this utility might be
included in one of the ChromeOS :/system sections, so it was attempted
to write this procedure 'fail safe', namely reporting errors and not
continuing processing if something goes wrong.
Including of coreboot/src .h files will allow to keep the firmware
timestamp implementation and this utility in sync in the future.
Test:
. build the utility (run 'make' while in chroot in util/cbmem)
. copy `cbmem' and 'cbmem.py' to the target
. run both utilities (limiting cbmem.py output to 25 lines or so)
. observe that the generated tables are identical (modulo rounding
up of int division, resulting in 1 ns discrepancies in some
cases)
