the e() and setvars() functions need to be declared before
the dependencies function.
also: after calling install_packages, it was doing a return
when it should have done an exit.
this is all fixed now. i apologise to anyone who previously
ran into trouble with this!

it's bloat. telling the user to rtfm is something that
we already do on irc; they will still ask how to do
everything, and ignore the message from badcmd(), or
they will automatically know to rtfm.
i'm on a massive purge, removing bloat from lbmk as
part of Libreboot Build System Audit 6.
all bloat must go.

replace it with logic that simply uses "." to load
files directly.
config/git files are now directories, also containing
pkg.cfg files each with the same variables as before,
such as repository link and commit hash
this change results in a noticeable reduction in code
complexity within the build system.
unified reading of config files: new function setcfg()
added to lib.sh
setcfg checks if a config exists. if a 2nd argument is
passed, it is used as a return value for eval, otherwise
a string calling err is passed. setcfg output is passed
through eval, to set strings based on config; eval must
be used, so that the variables are set within the same
scope, otherwise they'd be set within setcfg which could
lead to some whacky results.
there's still a bit more more to do, but this single change
results in a substantial reduction in code complexity.

don't say "file missing", because it may be present!
instead, say that the download failed. this covers both
contexts: internet failed and thus no file present, or
the file is present but checksum verification failed.
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
on the initial check, the output is confusing because
it will say "checksum verification failed" if the
file doesn't already exist, but then goes to download.
only say checksum failed if a download occured, and the
check failed, otherwise report nothing except that the
file already exists.
this will not reduce the ability to debug issues later
on, and it will reduce the amount of confusion for users.

certain code checks for build.list, to skip it, for
example in items()
we already use config/data/grub to store grub config data
that applied to all trees

config/data/coreboot
config/data/u-boot
config/data/seabios
move the respective build.list files in here, and also
to config/data/grub
now multi-tree projects contain, per directory, just the
target.cfg file and the patches directory. this is much
cleaner, because some of the logic can be simplified more
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
instead, check for the presence of target.cfg files
not in config/project/ but config/project/tree/
the way this check is done, it merely returns 1 if
config/project/*/target.cfg is detected, and returns
0 in all other cases, even if config/project/target.cfg
exists
that way, if the maintainer accidentally adds a
target.cfg in the main directory, the given multi-tree
project will not break

this avoids writing the version/versiondate files as root.
this complements the previous fix, that avoided writing those
same files when running the dependencies command.
initial setup of the build system requires root, to run the
dependencies script, but otherwise the build system prevents
running as root for everything else, so we must avoid writing
the version/versiondate files as root.
that same avoidance is necessary when checking whether running
other commands as root; ironically, this check then prevented
running the build system at all!
the bug should be fully fixed now. i found this quite by accident
the other day, when testing something else.
good thing this got fixed because the release!

do it strategically, in just the right place so that the
version and versiondate files aren't written.
otherwise, version/versiondate are written as root and
the build system becomes unusable after that, unless you
reset the file ownerships from root. hardly user-friendly.

already of saying "found", say "already exists"
this means the output of these commands more user
friendly and intuitive:
./update trees -b grub default
./update trees -b coreboot i945
this is just an example. when an ELF file already
exists, the build is skipped even if src isn't downloaded.
this design is intentional, because it means that you can
use previous builds if you want to save time on another.

The xHCI patches were removed because they caused issues
on Sandybridge-based Dell Latitude laptops. See:
https://codeberg.org/libreboot/lbmk/issues/216
The issue was not reported elsewhere, but we still don't
need xHCI support in Canoeboot's GRUB because none of the
available coreboot targets have xHCI support. However, we
may want it in the future and it helps to keep Canoeboot
in sync with Libreboot (this patch is adapted from lbmk).
Each given coreboot target can say which GRUB tree to use
by setting this in target.cfg:
grubtree="xhci"
In the above example, the "xhci" tree would be used. Some
generic GRUB config has been moved to config/data/grub/
and config/grub/ now looks like config/coreboot/ - also,
the grub.cfg file (named "payload" in each tree) is copied
to the GRUB source tree as ".config", then added to GRUB's
memdisk in the same way, as grub.cfg.
Several other design changes had to be made because of this:
* grub.cfg in memdisk no longer automatically jumps to one
in CBFS, but now shows a menuentry for it if available
* Certain commands in script/trees are disabled for GRUB,
such as *config make commands.
* gnulib is now defined in config/submodule/grub/, instead
of config/git/grub - and this mitigates an existing bug
where downloading gnulib first would make grub no longer
possible to download in lbmk.
There is another reason for merging this design change from
lbmk, and that reasoning also applies to lbmk. Specifically:
This change will enable per-board GRUB optimisation in the
future. For example, we hardcode what partitions and LVMs
GRUB scans because * is slow on ICH7-based machines, due
to GRUB's design. On other machines, * is reasonably fast,
for automatically enumerating the list of devices for boot.
Use of * (and other wildcards) could enable our GRUB payload
to automatically boot more distros, with minimal fuss. This
can be done at a later date, in subsequent revisions.
