What this change does: 1) Initialize limited page tables as soon as we jump into libpayload. Basically two ranges are initialized. One is for the BASE_ADDRESS and other is for the coreboot_tables. With page tables initialized and MMU enabled, we jump into code to parse coreboot tables. 2) Once coreboot tables are parsed and we have complete picture of the memory, we perform a complete page table initialzation and enable MMU and then jump to payload. Additionally, we also: 1) Initialize DMA memory on our own depending upon the memory map. It ensures that the DMA buffer is placed in 32-bit memory. CQ-DEPEND=CL:216826 BUG=chrome-os-partner:31634 BRANCH=None TEST=Compiles successfully and we are able to start execution of libpayload in EL2 and reach kernel login prompt Change-Id: I8a6203e465868bc2a3e5cc377e108f36cc58e2fa Signed-off-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@chromium.org> Original-Commit-Id: 7695bb7afe34ea460282125a0be440e8994b01e4 Original-Change-Id: Ie0f47b7759d4ac65a6920f7f2f7502b889afda6d Original-Signed-off-by: Furquan Shaikh <furquan@google.com> Original-Reviewed-on: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/216824 Original-Reviewed-by: Aaron Durbin <adurbin@chromium.org> Original-Tested-by: Furquan Shaikh <furquan@chromium.org> Original-Commit-Queue: Furquan Shaikh <furquan@chromium.org> Reviewed-on: http://review.coreboot.org/8792 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) Reviewed-by: Stefan Reinauer <stefan.reinauer@coreboot.org> |

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. 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 Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO 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.
