Current cbfstool implementation is relying on global variables to pass processed
data, and the calculation of address is based on x86 architecture (ex, always
assuming 0x0000 as invalid address), not easy to be used on platforms without
top-aligned memory mapping. This CL is a first step to start a new cbfstool
without global variables, and to prevent assuming memory layout in x86 mode.
The first published APIs are for reading and writing existing CBFS ROM image
files (and to find file entries in a ROM file).
Read cbfs_image.h for detail usage of each API function.

This is an initial re-factoring of CBFS code to enable multiple
architectures. To achieve a clean solution, an additional field
describing the architecture has to be added to the master header.
Hence we also increase the version number in the master header.

- Adding more and more optional and non-optional parameters
bloated cbfstool and made the code hard to read with a lot
of parsing in the actual cbfs handling functions. This change
switches over to use getopt style options for everything but
command and cbfs file name.
- This allows us to simplify the coreboot Makefiles a bit
- Also, add guards to include files
- Fix some 80+ character lines
- Add more detailed error reporting
- Free memory we're allocating

If a file "cmos.default", type "cmos default"(0xaa) is in CBFS,
a wrong checksum leads to coreboot rewriting the first 128 bytes
(except for clock data) with the data in cmos.default, then
reboots the system so every component of coreboot works with the
same set of values.

from the pre-commit version (esp. stage and payload creation),
others are completely rewritten (eg. the main loop that handles
file addition)
Also adapt newconfig (we don't need cbfs/tools anymore) and fix
some minor issues in the cbfstool-README.

src/lib/ code in coreboot. I.e. the tool changes but the coreboot code
does not.
Currently, as cbfstool manages the ROM, there are files and empty
space. To allocate files, the code does, first, a walk of the headers
and, if that fails, does a brute-force search of the rest of the
space.
We all agree that the brute-force search has lots of problems from a
performance and correctness standpoint.
I've made a slight change. Instead of an "empty space" area with no
valid headers, I've made a header for the empty space.
So cbfs creation looks like this:
- set up the boot block
- create a file, of type CBFS_COMPONENT_NULL, that contains the empty
space. CBFS_COMPONENT_NULL was already defined in cbfs.h
Here's an example:
[rminnich@xcpu2 cbfstool]$ ./cbfstool testcbfs create 1048576 2048
(cbfstool) E: Unable to open (null): Bad address
[rminnich@xcpu2 cbfstool]$ ./cbfstool testcbfs print
testcbfs: 1024 kB, bootblocksize 2048, romsize 1048576, offset 0x0
Alignment: 16 bytes
Name Offset Type Size
0x0 0xffffffff 1046456
So how do we create a new file?
It's easy: walk the files and find a file of type CBFS_COMPONENT_NULL,
which is as large
or larger than the file you are trying to create. Then you use that file.
- if the file is the same size as the NULL file, then it's easy: take it
- if the file is smaller than the NULL file, you split the NULL file
into two parts.
note that this works in the base case: the base case is that the whole
storage is CBFS_COMPONENT_NULL.
Here's an example of adding a file.
[rminnich@xcpu2 cbfstool]$ ./cbfstool testcbfs add-stage testfixed t
[rminnich@xcpu2 cbfstool]$ ./cbfstool testcbfs print
testcbfs: 1024 kB, bootblocksize 2048, romsize 1048576, offset 0x0
Alignment: 16 bytes
Name Offset Type Size
t 0x0 stage 23176
0x5ab0 0xffffffff 1023240
Note that the NULL split and got smaller. But the entire ROM is still
contained by the two files. To walk this entire rom will require two
FLASH accesses.
Add another file:
[rminnich@xcpu2 cbfstool]$ ./cbfstool testcbfs add-stage testfixed tt
[rminnich@xcpu2 cbfstool]$ ./cbfstool testcbfs print
testcbfs: 1024 kB, bootblocksize 2048, romsize 1048576, offset 0x0
Alignment: 16 bytes
Name Offset Type Size
t 0x0 stage 23176
tt 0x5ab0 stage 23176
0xb560 0xffffffff 1000024
[rminnich@xcpu2 cbfstool]$
So, taking current ROMs as an example, I can reduce FLASH accesses for
cbfs from (potentially) thousands to (typically) less than 10.
Index: fs.c
Changes for readability and cleanliness. Move common blobs of code to functions.
New function: rom_alloc,which allocates files by finding NULL files and using/splitting.
Other changes as needed to support this usage.
Index: util.c
Creating a cbfs archive now requires creation of a NULL file covering the file system space.
Index: cbfs.h
Add a DELETED file type with value 0. Any file can be marked deleted by zero its type; this is a
FLASH-friendly definition for all known FLASH types.
