The previous stability issues were resolved, thanks to
the previous revision which added a fix courtesy Simon Glass.
This reverts commit eba73c778a85d1c6ad2f0de57c82a8775cdd1c17.
U-Boot was hanging on hardware, but not Qemu. This is because on
the machines tested, namely the X200 and E6230 laptops supported
in Libreboot, the UART was disabled from coreboot.
This U-Boot patch from Simon Glass works around the issue by
silently disabling the UART when it isn't there. Instead,
output is sent to the display and U-Boot no longer hangs.

When building a coreboot image, if they enable the
x86 U-Boot payloads, sometimes what happens is you
have CROSS_COMPILE set, for i386-elf, but then it's
still set to that when later building 64-bit U-Boot,
which needs x86_64-elf.
We currently rely on hostcc to build U-Boot.
To mitigate this, unset CROSS_COMPILE in the main
loop of the trees script, for building project targets.

Currently seems to stall when booted from the GRUB
payload, but works when booted from the SeaBIOS menu.
I also tested it as a standalone payload and it seems
to boot. Will test on hardware next, and start adding
it to more mainboards.

This version simply updates the revision, whereas
the corresponding lbmk patch was more invasive:
commit 9abddb82b9228be738382ddc178a9562926404b3
Author: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
Date: Wed Nov 6 22:28:45 2024 +0000
Bump coreboot/next and merge coreboot/dell7
Canoeboot must be in sync with Libreboot at all times.
Well, the Libreboot patch also merges another tree
that Canoeboot doesn't have, containing the Dell OptiPlex
3050 Micro port, because Canoeboot can't support the
OptiPlek 3050 Micro.
So the Libreboot patch rebased many patches. This one
simply updates the revision.

NOTE: Support added for xarch target x86_64-elf,
but U-Boot failed to build with this error:
OBJCOPY lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi
x86_64-elf-objcopy: lib/efi_loader/helloworld_efi.so: invalid bfd target
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.lib:476: lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi] Error 1
Since I'm building U-Boot for x86_64 *on* an x86-64
host, and since that is currently the recommended type
of machine to use for cbmk development, and since the
other x86 payloads currently don't cross compile anyway,
this is an acceptable compromise for now. This is because
at present, I'm not making U-Boot the primary payload on x86,
instead preferring to chain it from GRUB and SeaBIOS.
The target.cfg file for x86 u-boot shows xarch/xtree commented.
Uncomment these to compile on crossgcc instead of hostcc.
I mention 64-bit because I initially did this first, but decided
to do 32-bit first. I'll work on the 64-bit one next (SPL).
It's only enabled in QEMU for now.

This is based on the same change recently made in
lbmk. A lot of unnecessary patches, and I want to

Also, cbmk's /default didn't actually build, whereas
lbmk did, which is the primary motive for this rebase.

the .git directory never exists anyway, when doing a release,
so the purpose this is intended is defeated by lbmk's design.
individual headers say "pcsx-redux team" as copyright anyway,
and the code for generating that COPYING file, with MIT license
and correct years (matching the entire source code for the
open bios) remains correct.
a mitigation instead of this patch might be to maintain a hardcoded
list of authors, and manually update it over time, but this is not
required. however, it may be good practise for upstream to maintain
such a file. perhaps i should contact them?

This brings in the following important fix:
commit d128a0ae87086b37c0e5d7a8d934bcdee173402f

flashchips: Remove unsupported erase blocks for Winbond W25X{16,32,64}
This family of chips does not support the 0x52 (32 KiB block erase) and
0x60 (chip erase) opcodes according to their datasheet.
The full list of changes this brings in is as follows:
* d128a0a flashchips: Remove unsupported erase blocks for Winbond W25X{16,32,64}
* c6a924a Don't mention writing when erasing only (-E)
* dac4239 ch347_spi: Add 'spimode' parameter
* 56d236b chipset_enable: Add some newer AMD code names
* 3b9f152 chipset_enable: Probe AMD SPIBAR first and bail on ff
* 522160f meson: Add ft4222_spi
Nicholas Chin's patch fixes a bug on GM45 ThinkPads, where WX25
ICs (Winbond) could be read, but writes would fail in certain
cases because flashchips.c provided incorrect block erase commands.
This is unrelated to the --workaround-mx patch, for Macronix ICs.

I added support earlier, on rom.sh, but the main build script

I also checked the copyright declarations in the
directory src/mips/openbios where the PCSX-Redux BIOS
is, gleaning all the copyright years: 2019-2024 at this
time.
The years will be updated as and when PCSX-Redux is
updated in lbmk. Their BIOS is under MIT so I made lbmk
generate an appropriate COPYING file alongside the binary,
containing:
Copyright (c) 2019-2024 PCSX-Redux authors
Along with the actual text of the MIT license. With all
of this, the PCSX-Redux BIOS can now be included in
Libreboot releases.
No actual tarball is created. The release script in lbmk
simply copies the bin/ directory to ../roms
I'm leaving the PCSX-Redux BIOS release uncompressed,
because, and this will sound patronising because that is
my precise intention: Windows users don't know how to do
anything. If I provide a tarball to Windows users, they
won't know what to do. Libreboot releases always go on rsync
mirrors, which also have HTTP servers with indexing enabled,
for browsing release files.
I mention Windows users, because most people who use the PCSX
Redux BIOS will probably use it on a PlayStation emulator, and
most emulator users are on Windows. I can't really be bothered
to provide it as a .zip archive, and it's only 512kb, so just
provide it uncompressed in Libreboot releases!
Releases were already possible under this scheme, so this
patch really just adds the COPYING file. It's simply a courtesy
to the PCSX-Redux developers, providing proper credit to them.

people were raising a stink about futility test data
in GNU Boot recently, which is proprietary data that
they forgot to delete.
i was already deleting this data since october 2023,
when canoeboot pretty much first started, and they
recently started following suit in their project.
however, i was deleting specific files, found as a
result of intense auditing done in october 2023. to
be more cautious, this patch now simply deletes the
entire directory, so that no test data remains. this
ensures that any future additions upstream will not
be included inadvertently in releases.
not to gloat, but this was never an issue in canoeboot.
again to be clear, this is a preventative fix; titled
"irony prevention", because such a bug in a future
release would indeed be highly ironic.

the way it worked, the roms were still named seagrub
and the seabios rom would be compiled, but with the wrong
path, so seabios wouldn't be executed; seabios would hang
anyway, on this board.
instead, engineer it in such a way as to disable seabios_
images on such setups. also, rename seagrub_ to grub_.
i normally only permit seagrub, and not grub, but i make an
exception for 3050micro because we know grub works, but seabios
currently hangs on this board (which means no bsd).
dell optiplex 3050 micro isn't actually supported in canoeboot,
but the workaround patch for enabling grub as primary payload
was added so that cbmk will maintain parity with lbmk.

Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro support was added to Libreboot,
which we can't add in Canoeboot, but SeaBIOS hung on that
board so we made GRUB the primary payload on that board.
SeaGRUB is still enforced on all Canoeboot targets at
present, but we want cbmk to maintain parity with lbmk.
Therefore, import this functionality into cbmk, but without
actually using it.
Add two variable options for target.cfg files:
* seabiosname
* grubname
This string defines where it would be located in CBFS.

in some cases, on a fresh clone, the cached repo already
exists but lbmk tries to download it again. work around
this by checking that the directory exists; it's in the
main if statement, so that the "else" still applies. as
a result, the fallback to a live repo would un-fall back
to doing git-pull if the cached directory exists exists.
if it doesn't seem to make sense, it's because it doesn't.
this whole function needs to be rewritten better.

I also added a "cleanargs" argument, similar to the makeargs
argument, to work around a build error.
This builds the PCSX-Redux PS1 BIOS. They reverse engineered
the Sony PS1 BIOS and wrote a free one under MIT license.
Run this:

The file will appear: bin/playstation/openbios.bin
Yes. PlayStation support. It's even RYF-friendly:
* Replace BIOS chip with PCSX-Redux's open BIOS
* Install PsNee modchip (libre modchip firmware)
* Install PicoStation (libre optical disc drive emulator)
* Libre SDKs are available e.g. PSn00bSDK
I added this to Libreboot, because I'm working on a fork of
DuckStation. DuckStation recently went proprietary, so I'm making
a fork (soon to be launched) that is based on the libre version,
and I was told of PCSX-Redux's Open BIOS, so I decided to add it
to the *boot projects.

We don't need the entire emulator, but we will be using
a specific part: src/mips/openbios
third_party/uC-sdk submodule is included, because it
contains the necessary header files when building open bios.
I will be adding Sony Playstation support to Canoeboot,
alongside a new emulator project to be announced soon.
Yes, RYF playstation is possible. A real playstation can
run this BIOS. Then disable the copy protection from the
CD controller by installing a modchip (PsNee runs free
modchip firmware), and picostation is also libre if you want
something to boot software from SD card instead of CD-R.
