Vladimir Serbinenko f4a0d019fa util/cbmem: Don't output trailing garbage for cbmemc
Current code outputs the whole cbmemc buffer even if only part of
it is really used. Fix it to output only the used part and notify
the user if the buffer was too small for the required data.

Stefan Reinauer d37ab454d4 Implement GCC code coverage analysis
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/

Stefan Reinauer 19f8756f00 cbmem utility: Add option to dump cbmem console
This adds an option to the cbmem utility to dump the cbmem console.
To keep the utility backwards compatible, specifying -c disables
printing of time stamps. To print both console and time stamps, run
the utility with -ct

Stefan Reinauer 05cbce672e cbmem utility: Use mmap instead of fseek/fread
The kernel on Ubuntu 12.04LTS does not allow to use
fseek/fread to read the coreboot table at the end of
memory but will instead abort cbmem with a "Bad Address"
error.

Whether that is a security feature (some variation of
CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM) or a kernel bug is not  yet clear,
however using mmap works nicely.

Stefan Reinauer 1e0e55615f cbmem utility: support command line options
The tool could print much more useful information than
just time stamps, for example the cbmem console on systems
that don't have a kernel patched to support /sys/firmware/log.

Hence, add command line option parsing to make adding such
features easier in the future.

Vadim Bendebury 6d18fd09c3 Utility to dump boot timing table
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)
