This is a copy of coreboot's autoport utility, with a patch applied to
support Haswell/Lynx Point platforms. That patch is currently in review
on coreboot's Gerrit.

In order for the EC to maintain the state of whether or not to set the
flash descriptor override across a power cycle, the AC adapter must be
connected, as the system leaves the voltage rail that the EC uses
powered under this condition. Without this, the utility may fail,
continually asking the user to power off and on.
On Linux, CONFIG_X86_IOPL_IOPERM must be set for the kernel, or else the
iopl call will error with "Function not implemented". Make a note of
this in case a user runs into this issue.

These systems have a report that the unlock utility does not work.
Until there are multiple reports of failed unlocks and a technical
determination of why it doesn't work, they will not be listed as
explicitly unsupported.
As this utility requires access to /dev/mem, the default protections of
Linux and OpenBSD must be relaxed to allow this. Make a note of this in
the instructions.
The old Open Security Training site had a course called Advanced x86:
BIOS and SMM Internals, which had a set of slides outlining the method
to supress SMIs by changing the GBL_SMI_EN bit. Add a reference to it as
this is where I originally learned of this method.
under the current logic, errno would be ECANCELED
if neither checksum is valid, or I/O related if
pwrite fails; alternatively, the for loop exits
and the file has been written, where it is quite
correctly reset already.
ergo, the errno reset at the start of
writeGbeFile is superfluous. remove this bloat.

previously, a bad checksum would have caused a non-zero
exit, even if the other checksum was correct (observed
when using the swap command)

This updates lbmk's copy of e6400-flash-unlock to commit c5567fece479
(README.md: Update with info about broader device support) in my
upstream repo.
Changes:
- Theoretical support for any Dell system that implements that flash
descriptor override command. This is done by reading base address
registers at runtime instead of hard coding them for specific devices.
Tested on the Latitude E6400 and Latitude E6430.
- Support for OpenBSD. It compiles, runs, and behaves as expected,
though I have not actually tested internally flashing with flashrom
yet. It should work though, as the program checks if the descriptor
override is set and the BIOS Write Enable is able to be set to 1, which
is all that is needed to internal flash.
- Integrated changes made in the lbmk copy
- Moved operating system accessor implementations to their own file
It should be fully functional, though minor formatting and cleanup
changes are still planned.

at this stage in the code, the file name will be NULL
value, so it would be improper to use it in a string.

the previous code size optimisations removed mention
of the file name, on file-related err() calls.
almost every error the user runs across will be file
related, so put the path on err() called from err_if()

there is no need to have these as defines, when err_if
exists; get rid of xunveil and xpledge. use the bare
pledge and unveil functions directly, with err_if().
268 sloccount now on nvmutil.c, versus 289 sloccount
before this change, with no loss of functionality.

it doesn't really make sense to have nvmutil.h
since this is only a very small program and not
intended for use as a library

This cuts down on build time, and it will allow libreboot
to remove large chunks of code.
these ifd/gbe configs are just binary-encoded config files,
in a format well-understood. they can easily be opened up
and displayed, using ich9show or ifdtool, and manipulated
by these tools; bincfg can generate them from scratch, and
nvmutil can change mac addresses, for example.
so, do this and remove from lbmk the following:
* ich9utils (which contains ich9gen) - not needed anymore
* code in lbmk for handling ich9gen and insertions; the
coreboot build system is now used, for this same purpose,
so remove such code from lbmk
this results in a massive code size reduction (thousands of
lines) in lbmk; smaller when only looking at the build
system, but much larger when you consider that ich9utils
is also removed (about 3k sloc)

the loop in main() already checks EOF, and errno is
properly handled at the end of main()
we only need to call ferror(), to check error state
this fixes a bogus error message when pressing ctrl+D
to terminate the program, *which is the intended way
to terminate this program* (that, or EOF is reached
in any other another way)
do not treat intended behaviour as an error condition!

i've build-tested this code with clang and that also
works. in practise, a user is going to have clang or gcc

make it more obvious that this *is* a ring buffer being
handled, and make it more obvious when checking a pulse
in the next frame

i forked spkmodem-recv from coreboot, who forked it from
gnu grub. gnu grub's version has the full header, with
copyright declared as belonging to the fsf
coreboot made changes after forking it, and later replaced
the license declaration with an equivalent SPDX header, but
they also removed the FSF's copyright declaration, which by
itself does not void the declaration
anyway, i just feel better re-adding the full declaration.
make it so!

there's no point passing it as argument to a
function. it's used across more than one function,
so make it global
