Add dedicated CAR setup and teardown functions and Kconfig options to force their inclusion into the build. The .S files are mostly duplicated code from the old cache_as_ram.inc file. The .S files use global proc names in anticipation for use with the Kconfig symbols C_ENVIRONMENT_BOOTBLOCK and POSTCAR_STAGE. Move the mainboard romstage functionality into the soc directory and change the function name to be compatible with the call from assembly_entry.S. Drop the BIST check like other devices. Move InitReset and InitEarly to bootblock. These AGESA entry points set some default settings, and release/recapture the AP cores. There are currently some early dependencies on InitReset. Future work should include: * Pull the necessary functionality from InitReset into bootblock * Move InitReset and InitEarly to car_stage_entry() and out of bootblock - Add a mechanism for the BSP to give the APs an address to call and skip most of bootblock and verstage (when available) (1) - Reunify BiosCallOuts.c and OemCustomize.c (1) During the InitReset call, the BSP enables the APs by setting core enable bits in F18F0x1DC and APs begin fetching/executing from the reset vector. The BSP waits for all APs to also reach InitReset, where they enter an endless loop. The BSP sends a command to them to execute a HLT instruction and the BSP eventually returns from InitReset. The goal would be to preserve this process but prevent APs from rerunning early code.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 https://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: * https://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * https://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) * pkg-config * libssl-dev (openssl) 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 https://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 https://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: https://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: https://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
