Kyösti Mälkki 4fbac46524 cbmem: Unify CBMEM init tasks with CBMEM_INIT_HOOK() API
Squashed and adjusted two changes from chromium.git. Covers
CBMEM init for ROMTAGE and RAMSTAGE.

cbmem: Unify random on-CBMEM-init tasks under common CBMEM_INIT_HOOK() API

There are several use cases for performing a certain task when CBMEM is
first set up (usually to migrate some data into it that was previously
kept in BSS/SRAM/hammerspace), and unfortunately we handle each of them
differently: timestamp migration is called explicitly from
cbmem_initialize(), certain x86-chipset-specific tasks use the
CAR_MIGRATION() macro to register a hook, and the CBMEM console is
migrated through a direct call from romstage (on non-x86 and SandyBridge
boards).

This patch decouples the CAR_MIGRATION() hook mechanism from
cache-as-RAM and rechristens it to CBMEM_INIT_HOOK(), which is a clearer
description of what it really does. All of the above use cases are
ported to this new, consistent model, allowing us to have one less line
of boilerplate in non-CAR romstages.

BRANCH=None
BUG=None
TEST=Built and booted on Nyan_Blaze and Falco with and without
CONFIG_CBMEM_CONSOLE. Confirmed that 'cbmem -c' shows the full log after
boot (and the resume log after S3 resume on Falco). Compiled for Parrot,
Stout and Lumpy.

cbmem: Extend hooks to ramstage, fix timestamp synching

Commit 7dd5bbd71 (cbmem: Unify random on-CBMEM-init tasks under common
CBMEM_INIT_HOOK() API) inadvertently broke ramstage timestamps since
timestamp_sync() was no longer called there. Oops.

This patch fixes the issue by extending the CBMEM_INIT_HOOK() mechanism
to the cbmem_initialize() call in ramstage. The macro is split into
explicit ROMSTAGE_/RAMSTAGE_ versions to make the behavior as clear as
possible and prevent surprises (although just using a single macro and
relying on the Makefiles to link an object into all appropriate stages
would also work).

This allows us to get rid of the explicit cbmemc_reinit() in ramstage
(which I somehow accounted for in the last patch without realizing that
timestamps work exactly the same way...), and replace the older and less
flexible cbmem_arch_init() mechanism.

Also added a size assertion for the pre-RAM CBMEM console to memlayout
that could prevent a very unlikely buffer overflow I just noticed.

BRANCH=None
BUG=None
TEST=Booted on Pinky and Falco, confirmed that ramstage timestamps once
again show up. Compile-tested for Rambi and Samus.

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:
