The existing arm64 architecture code has been developed for the Tegra132 and Tegra210 SoCs, which only start their ARM64 cores in ramstage. It interweaves the stage entry point with code that initializes a CPU (and should not be run again if that CPU already ran a previous stage). It also still contains some vestiges of SMP/secmon support (such as setting up stacks in the BSS instead of using the stage-peristent one from memlayout). This patch splits those functions apart and makes the code layout similar to how things work on ARM32. The default stage_entry() symbol is a no-op wrapper that just calls main() for the current stage, for the normal case where a stage ran on the same core as the last one. It can be overridden by SoC code to support special cases like Tegra. The CPU initialization code is split out into armv8/cpu.S (similar to what arm_init_caches() does for ARM32) and called by the default bootblock entry code. SoCs where a CPU starts up in a later stage can call the same code from a stage_entry() override instead. The Tegra132 and Tegra210 code is not touched by this patch to make it easier to review and validate. A follow-up patch will bring those SoCs in line with the model. BRANCH=None BUG=None TEST=Booted Oak with a single mmu_init()/mmu_enable(). Built Ryu and Smaug.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ------------------ * make * gcc / g++ Because Linux distribution compilers tend to use lots of patches. coreboot does lots of "unusual" things in its build system, some of which break due to those patches, sometimes by gcc aborting, sometimes - and that's worse - by generating broken object code. Two options: use our toolchain (eg. make crosstools-i386) or enable the ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case). * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig' and 'make nconfig') * 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.
