3 (with one of them way too much assembler code). On the way, I had to make some changes to the way the code is built, which is an effort I want to expand over time. Right now, large portions of the in-ROM part of coreboot is compiled as a single file, with lots of .c files including other .c files. That has its justification for pre-raminit code, but it also affects lots of post-raminit code (memcpy doesn't really make sense before raminit, or at least CAR) The coreboot_apc code (AMD boards) gained some .c includes because I don't know that part of the code enough to really rework it and only have limited possibilities to test it. The includes should give an identical situation for this part of the code. This change was posted as set of 6 patches to the list, but they were mostly split for review purposes, hence commit them all at once. They can still be backed up using the patch files, if necessary.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS you can find in most of today's computers. It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes one of many possible payloads, e.g. a Linux kernel or a bootloader. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * gcc / g++ * make * python * perl Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Documentation for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------- If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
