Gabe Black 06b13a37f0 cbmem: Terminate the cbmem console at the cursor position.
If the cbmem console buffer isn't zero filled before it's used, there won't be
a terminator at the end. We need to put one at the cursor position manually.

Kyösti Mälkki b3594ab489 util/cbmem: Workaround for IS_ENABLED()
Our include files reference CONFIG_xxx declarations, which we should
ignore for utility build.

We cannot include kconfig.h to get IS_ENABLED() as that file
would require build/config.h and we do not want to enforce a build
of the firmware to be able to build the utility.

Since we do not include build/config.h each occurence of CONFIG_xxx
in the included header files is undefined and will be treated as
disabled.

Aaron Durbin ab180d85f7 util/cbmem: handle larger than 1MiB mappings for console
In some cases the cbmem console can be larger than the default
mapping size of 1MiB. Therefore, add the ability to do a mapping
that is larger than the default mapping using map_memory_size().
The console printing code will unconditionally map the console based
on the size it finds in the cbmem entry.

Stefan Reinauer 8c5947709a cbmem utility: compatibility with older coreboot versions
Commit b8ad224 changed the memory address in lb_cbmem_ref coreboot
table entries from a pointer to a uint64_t. This change was introduced
to make the cbmem utility work on both 32bit and 64bit userland.
Unfortunately, this broke the cbmem utility running on older versions
of coreboot because they were still providing a 32bit only field for
the address while the cbmem utility would now take the following 4
bytes as upper 32bits of a pointer that can obviously not be
mmapped. This change checks if the size of the lb_cbmem_ref structure
provided by coreboot is smaller than expected, and if so, ignore the
upper 32bit of the address read.

Stefan Tauner e978fc265d cbmem: Fix makefile
The .dependencies rule did not use the CPPFLAGS variable which led
to funny behavior: a spurious termination message the first time
(after checkout/make distclean) one executes make. Afterwards the
(wrongly) empty .dependencies file hides the problem and the binary
is created anyway.

$ make
cbmem.c:37:34: fatal error: boot/coreboot_tables.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
cc -O2 -Wall -Werror -iquote ../../src/include -iquote ../../src/src/arch/x86  -c -o cbmem.o cbmem.c
cc   cbmem.o   -o cbmem

$ make
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.

$ make clean
rm -f cbmem *.o *~

$ make
cc -O2 -Wall -Werror -iquote ../../src/include -iquote ../../src/src/arch/x86  -c -o cbmem.o cbmem.c
cc   cbmem.o   -o cbmem

$ make distclean
rm -f cbmem *.o *~
rm -f .dependencies

$ make

compilation terminated.
cc -O2 -Wall -Werror -iquote ../../src/include -iquote ../../src/src/arch/x86  -c -o cbmem.o cbmem.c
cc   cbmem.o   -o cbmem

I fixed that by adding the CPPFLAGS variable to the .dependencies recipe, just
like Stefan Reinauer did in Chromium (Ia9d2e10a3ef122f30d681d16c2291eb108ead835),
hence the split sign-off for this tiny change. :)

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/

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)

Vadim Bendebury 00ba25decb Get more informative output from cbmem.py
This is a cosmetic change which formats timestamp information
retrieved by cbmem.py.

Instead of printing timestamps in a single line, print them one per
line and add time (in us) elapsed since the previous timestamp.

Vadim Bendebury f27d36c361 Fix cbmem to work on 64 bit platforms
For some reason which I fail to understand, specifying endiannes using
'@' (which means 'native' and should be the same as '<' on x86
platforms) causes cbmem.py to crash the machine on 64 bit systems.

What happens is that the addresses read from various table headers'
struct representations do not make sense, when bogus address gets
passed to get_phys_mem, the crash happens while that function is
executed.

dlaurie@ found out that replacing "@" with "<" in fact fixes the
issue. After some investigation I am just submitting this fix without
much understanding of the root cause.

Gabe Black 5d3438de41 Revamp cbmem.py to use the coreboot tables.
This change makes significant changes to cbmem.py to make it use the
coreboot tables to find the memory console and timestamp areas instead
of looking for the in memory table TOC structure. That appears to be
more robust and gets cbmem.py working again after some unrelated
changes that affected memory layout.

It also introduces some small infrastructure to make accessing C style
structures in physical memory easier and more transparent.

Vadim Bendebury b93f74bb07 Introduce utility for parsing CBMEM contents.
This is a python script which is supposed to run on a target
which is controlled by coreboot. The script examines top of
memory looking for the CBMEM signature at addresses aligned at
128K boundary. Once the script finds the CBMEM, it iterates
through the CBMEM table of contents and parses two entries: the
timestamps and the console log.

This submission is just a template to build upon to create a
utility for displaying CBMEM information while running Linux on
the target.

BUG=chrome-os-partner:4200
TEST=manual

See test description of d81e6b8c8d41f2d6 for test procedure.
