Stefan Reinauer 8f50e53a4b cbfstool: Fix architecture check when adding payload
In the process of rewriting cbfstool for ARM and using
a new internal API a regression was introduced that would
silently let you add an ARM payload into an x86 CBFS image
and the other way around. This patch fixes cbfstool to
produce an error in that case again.

Aaron Durbin 4f3bb801ed cbfstool: provide structure to linux payload builder
This change started with tracking down a bug where the trampoline
size was not being taken into account for sizing the output buffer
leading to a heap corruption.  I was having a hard time keeping
track of what num_segments actually tracked as well as what parts
were being placed in the output buffer. Here's my attempt at
hopefully providing more clarity.

This change doesn't crash when adding a bzImage:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=bb.bin bs=64 count=1
$ ./cbfstool tmp.rom create -s 4M -B bb.bin -m x86 -a 64
$ ./cbfstool tmp.rom add-payload -f ~/Downloads/bzImage -C "1" -n
"fallback"/payload

Ronald G. Minnich a8a133ded3 Add section header parsing and use it in the mk-payload step
This completes the improvements to the ELF file parsing code.  We can
now parse section headers too, across all 4 combinations of word size
and endianness. I had hoped to completely remove the use of htonl
until I found it in cbfs_image.c. That's a battle for another day.

There's now a handy macro to create magic numbers in host byte order.
I'm using it for all the PAYLOAD_SEGMENT_* constants and maybe
we can use it for the others too, but this is sensitive code and
I'd rather change one thing at a time.

To maximize the ease of use for users, elf parsing is accomplished with
just one function:

int
elf_headers(const struct buffer *pinput,
	    Elf64_Ehdr *ehdr,
	    Elf64_Phdr **pphdr,
	    Elf64_Shdr **pshdr)

which requires the ehdr and pphdr pointers to be non-NULL, but allows
the pshdr to be NULL. If pshdr is NULL, the code will not try to read
in section headers.

To satisfy our powerful scripts, I had to remove the ^M from an unrelated
microcode file.

BUG=None
TEST=Build a peppy image (known to boot) with old and new versions and verify they are bit-for-bit the same. This was also fully tested across all chromebooks for building and booting and running chromeos.

Ronald G. Minnich aa2f739ae8 cbfs: fix issues with word size and endianness.
Add XDR functions and use them to convert the ELF headers
to native headers, using the Elf64 structs to ensure we accomodate
all word sizes. Also, use these XDR functions for output.

This may seem overly complex but it turned out to be much the easiest
way to do this. Note that the basic elf parsing function
in cbfs-mkstage.c now works over all ELF files, for all architectures,
endian, and word size combinations. At the same time, the basic elf
parsing in cbfs-mkstage.c is a loop that has no architecture-specific
conditionals.

Add -g to the LDFLAGS while we're here. It's on the CFLAGS so there is
no harm done.

This code has been tested on all chromebooks that use coreboot to date.

I added most of the extra checks from ChromeOS and they triggered a
lot of warnings, hence the other changes. I had to take -Wshadow back
out due to the many errors it triggers in LZMA.

BUG=None
TEST=Build and boot for Peppy; works fine. Build and boot for nyan,
     works fine. Build for qemu targets and armv8 targets.

Hung-Te Lin 3cfacbf196 cbfstool: Add buffer management API.
Many functions in cbfstool need to deal with a memory buffer - both location and
size. Right now it's made by different ways: for ROM image using global variable
(romsize, master_header); and in cbfs-* using return value for size and char**
to return memory location.

This may cause bugs like assuming incorrect return types, ex:
	uint32_t file_size = parse();	// which returns "-1" on error
	if (file_size <= 0) { ...
And the parse error will never be caught.

We can simplify this by introducing a buffer API, to change
	unsigned int do_something(char *input, size_t len, char **output, ...)
into
	int do_something(struct buffer *input, struct buffer *output, ...)

The buffer API will be used by further commits.

Stefan Reinauer a90bd527d9 cbfstool: add offset parameter to create command
CBFS allows coreboot rom images that are only partially covered
by the filesystem itself. The intention of this feature was to
allow EC / ME / IMC firmware to be inserted easily at the beginning
of the image. However, this was never implemented in cbfstool.

This patch implements an additional parameter for cbfstool.

If you call cbfstool like this:
cbfstool coreboot.rom create 8192K bootblock.bin 64 0x700000
it will now create an 8M image with CBFS covering the last 1M of
that image.

Test:
     cbfstool coreboot.rom create 8192K bootblock.bin 64 0x700000
     creates an 8M image that is 7M of 0xff and 1M of CBFS.

Patrick Georgi 26774f2b72 Make the kconfig-style build work in mingw:
* use relative paths in ldscript.ld and crt0_includes.h
* avoid use of dd(1) in xcompile
* build libregex for kconfig, if necessary
* work around missing utsname on win32
* unlink targets before rename on win32
* implement (crude) mkstemp for win32
* avoid open/read/close, use fopen/fread/fclose instead
* don't free certain data structures in romcc on win32 to
  avoid crashes (likely use-after-free())
* handle "\CRLF" and win32 style absolute paths (X:/ or X:\)
  in romcc
* make lzma (part of cbfstool) build on XP
* implement ntohl/htonl on win32
* handle CRLF in awk script
* set larger stack for romcc on win32

Patrick Georgi 0da38dde4b Add a "locate" function cbfstool, which helps you find
out a suitable address to put a XIP stage to.

Specifically, you pass it the file (to get its filesize), its filename
(as the header has a variable length that depends on it), and the
granularity requirement it has to fit in (for XIP).
The granularity is MTRR-style: when you request 0x10000, cbfstool looks
for a suitable place in a 64kb-aligned 64kb block.

cbfstool simply prints out a hex value which is the start address of a
suitably located free memory block. That value can then be used with
cbfs add-stage to store the file in the ROM image.

It's a two-step operation (instead of being merged into cbfs add-stage)
because the image must be linked twice: First, with some bogus, but safe
base address (eg. 0) to figure out the target address (based on file
size). Then a second time at the target address.

The work flow is:
 - link file
 - cbfstool locate
 - link file again
 - cbfstool add-stage.

Patrick Georgi b7b56dd8fb New cbfstool. Works without mmap or fork/exec and
supports fixed location files. Some parts are salvaged
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.
