x is part of the for loop in main() and may or not
still be available from handle_target, depending on
your implementation of sh, but this should not be assumed
do it properly

for example:
./build roms list stable
this lists all images that are marked "stable"
now:
./build roms list _stable
this lists all images that are *not* marked stable
this will help me keep track during development

I'm on a schedule here and don't have time to do the
release changelog before actually compiling the release.
I'm pushing the release changelog / news announcement
*while the release is building*. Therefore, the actual
release archive will contain Libreboot documentation, but
from the lbwww revision just before the release announcement.
(a changelog file is still generated from Git, and included
in releases)

Angel Pons told me I should do it. See comments here:
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/81016
I see no harm in complying with the request. I'll merge
this into the main patch at a later date and try to
get this upstreamed.
Just a reminder: on Optiplex 9020 variants, Xorg locks up
under Linux when tested with a graphics card; disabling
IOMMU works around the issue. Intel graphics work just fine
with IOMMU turned on. Libreboot disables IOMMU by default,
on the 9020, so that users can install graphics cards easily.
I'm pretty sure this is the correct way to do it. The machine
still seems to boot, in this configuration.

NRI is libre raminit
MRC is binary blob raminit
the libre raminit is stable enough now that it's default
the MRC-based targets will be removed in a future release

i initially decided to say unstable, but the default
configuration is reliable; the only caveat is that if
you enable IOMMU, you must only be using intel graphics.
this is already documented in warn.txt files, and on
the website, so it's more than ok to call this stable.
i use one of these myself as my daily driver and it's
rock solid. i haven't had any problems with it. i also
sell these to people with libreboot. no problems.
mark it as stable, ready for a full release.

nitrocaster boards are hard to find nowadays and i'm not
comfortable supporting the knockoff chinese gear; quality
varies greatly, and i can't know how reliable they are.
nitrocaster has been out of business so it's just not
viable to support this mod anymore. in fact, keeping the
eDP-based targets is a liability to libreboot.
regular x220/x230 (non-eDP-modded) are retained. the eDP
modkit from nitrocaster let you use eDP screens instead
of lvds, on thinkpad x220 and x230, letting you use
higher resolution screens.
older lbmk revs can still be used, if you happen to come
across one of these boards. i only recommend using the
official nitrocaster board, if youcan find one unused.
ymmv with the chinese gear. better just use an unmodded
x230 or get a different machine.

angel pons said how to fix it. more info in the patch.
works perfectly. i still see that scancode in dmesg and i guess
i have to assign it to some function that sets software rfkill
hw rfkill is no longer set. it's unblocked, and i can use wifi.
just in time for the libreboot release.

was reported broken on canoeboot 0.1, which uses 2021
coreboot. we use much newer coreboot now in libreboot, but
still, better be cautious. set to release=n.
i'll set status and remove release=n if it works on testing

Use shell scripting in the recipe instead of GNU make's
conditional syntax. This allows the Makefile to work with
the default implementations of make on the BSDs.

Add FreeBSD to the README as it is now supported. Make a note about
using gmake instead of make as the makefile currently uses GNU
extensions to determine build flags based on the OS.

it should be marked unstable, though these machines
are basically reliable; they have certain missing features
and quirky behaviour so it's important not to over-sell it
mark it as unstable, on all of the dell latitudes

The pio.h header, although present on NetBSD, is not necessary, as it
only declares x86 port IO inx()/outx() functions which are not actually
implemented.
