Paul Menzel 747c07f08a util/cbmem: Fix CBMEM TOC printing Since commit `c0199078` (cbmem utility: Find actual CBMEM area) [1], at least on the Lenovo X201, X230 and X60, printing the CBMEM table of contents did not work. It still worked on the ASRock E350M1 though. $ sudo /src/coreboot/util/cbmem/cbmem -l --verbose # Lenovo X60t Looking for coreboot table at 0 Mapping 1MB of physical memory at 0x0. Found! coreboot table entry 0x11 Found forwarding entry. Unmapping 1MB of virtual memory at 0xb74dc000. Looking for coreboot table at 7f6c4000 Mapping 1MB of physical memory at 0x7f6c4000. Found! coreboot table entry 0xc8 coreboot table entry 0x01 Found memory map. coreboot table entry 0x03 coreboot table entry 0x04 coreboot table entry 0x05 coreboot table entry 0x06 coreboot table entry 0x07 coreboot table entry 0x08 coreboot table entry 0x09 coreboot table entry 0x0a coreboot table entry 0x16 Found timestamp table. cbmem_addr = 7f7dd000 coreboot table entry 0x17 Found cbmem console. cbmem_addr = 7f7de000 Unmapping 1MB of virtual memory at 0xb74dc000. No coreboot CBMEM area found! The address of the boot info record has to be used for checking, that reading takes place in the bounds of the boot info record. $ sudo ~/src/coreboot/util/cbmem/cbmem -l # Lenovo X60 CBMEM table of contents: ID START LENGTH […] Big thanks to David and Stefan for their help.

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:
