Kyösti Mälkki 91bfa8e7ea PCIEXP_PLUGIN_SUPPORT: Change dependency on PCI access
Some PCI-e capability registers are located starting from
0x100, these are not accessible using the conventional
PCI IO config operations at 0xcf8/0xcfc, unless PCI_CFG_EXT_IO
was selected.

Thus any feature that calls pciexp_find_extended_cap()
depends on either MMCONF_SUPPORT_DEFAULT or PCI_CFG_EXT_IO
being enabled on the platform.

In theory there can be system without MMCONF_SUPPORT, but
with complete PCI Express configuration space available
using PCI_CFG_EXT_IO. Do not use explicit PCI MMCONF
operations here, but rely on the default PCI access
method to be able to access all of the configuration space.

While at it, convert to IS_ENABLED() everywhere in the source
and organize Kconfig file better.

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:
