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.

This is useful on desktops, where you want GRUB to
automatically start, but you still want access to the
GRUB menu, in the case where you rely on SeaBIOS to
execute the VGA ROM inside your graphics card.

export LBMK_THREADS=x
where x is an integer. this is already supported for
setting the number of build threads, but if not set
it uses nproc.
openbsd doesn't have nproc. default to 1 thread.
now you MUST set threads. e.g. in linux do:
export LBMK_THREADS=$(nproc)
preliminary work is being done to make lbmk run
on openbsd!

some latitudes still used the old style for variables
in target.cfg, specifically arch="x86_64" - lbmk used to
then check that on a big if/else and translate it to the
correct target name for crossgcc, e.g. i386-elf, arm-eabi
now it just puts the arch directly, in a new variable:
xarch
change arch="x86_64" to xarch="i386-elf" in these files.
also remove a few obsolete variables. should build now.

github is unreliable. i host these files myself.
coreboot uses intel.com again now in the latest revisions, and
intel broke it before. i'm going to start backing up the acpica
releases onto my rsync server from now on, and keep patching
coreboot to use my files.

just to ensure that nothing goes wrong. we don't rely on
the status variable for releases, because there is another
variable, release, that target.cfg files declare, e.g.
release="n"
release="y"
you can just omit the variable, because it defaults to y, so
you only need declare it when it needs to be "n"

export LBMK_STATUS=n
if not set, the status checks and confirmation dialogs
persist. if set to y they persist.
if you set it to n, all checks are disabled, so e.g.:
./build roms all
this would once again build all targets, regardless
of status. this is if you want the old behaviour.

raminit has never been fully reliable on this board, and so
this board has never been stable. so, now that lbmk specifies
such status per board, mark these boards as such.
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
for example:
./build roms list
this will list every now, still. same behaviour. now see:
./build roms list stable
this will list all stable roms
./build roms list untested
this lists untested roms. but wait!
./build roms list untested broken unstable
./build roms list broken unstable
yes. it works this way. now you can use lbmk to easily
see what rom status are, during maintenance.

export LBMK_VERSION_TYPE=x
x can be: stable, unstable
in target.cfg files, specify:
status=x
x can be: stable, unstable, broken, untested
if unset, lbmk defaults to "unknown"
if LBMK_VERSION_TYPE is set, no confirmation is asked
if the given target matches what's set (but what's set
in that environmental variable can only be stable or
unstable)
if LBMK_RELEASE="y", no confirmation is asked, unless
the target is something other than stable/unstable
"unstable" means it works, but has a few non-breaking
bugs, e.g. broken s3 on dell e6400
whereas, if raminit regularly fails or it is so absolutely
unreliable as to be unusable, then the board should be
declared "broken"
untested means: it has not been tested
With this change, it should now be easier to track whether
a given board is tested, in preparation for releases. When
working on trees/boards, status can be set for targets.
Also: in the board directory, you can add a "warn.txt" file
which will display a message. For example, if a board has a
particular quirk to watch out for, write that there. The message
will be printed during the build process, to stdout.
If status is anything *other* than stable, or it is unstable
but LBMK_VERSION_TYPE is not set to "unstable", and not building
a release, a confirmation is passed.
If the board is not specified as stable or unstable, during
a release build, the build is skipped and the ROM is not
provided in that release; this is in *addition* to
release="n" or release="y" that can be set in target.cfg,
which will skip the release build for that target if "n"

On T60 with Libreboot 20231106 and the GRUB payload, a user
reported this error in GRUB when a battery was connected:
"alloc magic is broken at 0x7b1aedf0: 0"
This error disappears when a battery is not connected, or
when using Libreboot 20230625. The issue has persisted
through to LIbreboot 20240225 and after, and I believe the
issue will be somewhere in coreboot, not in GRUB itself.
For now, switch i945 laptops (X60, T60, Macbook2,1) back to
the February 2023 coreboot revision used in Libreboot 20230625.
A bisect can be done before the next Libreboot release, ETA
May 2024, if time permits. Otherwise, this revert should solve
the problem for now, at least so far as Libreboot is concerned.
The following coreboot patches have been backported:
commit 29030d0f3dad2ec6b86000dfe2c8e951ae80bf94
Author: Bill Xie <persmule@hardenedlinux.org>

drivers/pc80/rtc/option.c: Stop resetting CMOS during s3 resume
Further patches from upstream:
commit 432e92688eca0e85cbaebca3232f65936b305a98
Author: Bill Xie <persmule@hardenedlinux.org>
Date: Fri Nov 3 12:34:01 2023 +0800
drivers/pc80/rtc/option.c: Reset only CMOS range covered by checksum
These patches fixed S3 on GM45 machines, though it will be useful on
the i945 machines aswell.
The reason I'm doing it this way it is because I don't have a battery
for my X60 or T60, and my T60 isn't in a very good state either,
so I can't reproduce the error myself yet.

GRUB has not pushed many patches to master since the recent 2.12
release, but there are a number of interesting fixes.
libreboot is doing a release soon. bump to latest grub revision.
Some of the new patches in GRUB are interesting:
XFS fixes:
"fs/xfs: Handle non-continuous data blocks in directory extents"
68dd65cfdaad08b1f8ec01b84949b0bf88bc0d8c
Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2254370
Apparently, XFS could not boot in some reports, though this was
likely with BIOS or UEFI GRUB; no such reports were made to libreboot
"gfxmenu/view: Resolve false grub_errno disrupting boot process"

"util/grub-fstest: Add a new command zfs-bootfs"

lbmk sets TMPDIR to /tmp, and then creates a tmpdir, then
exports *that* as the value of TMPDIR. this unified TMPDIR
location then contains all subsequent files and directories,
when any script or program makes use of /tmp, via mktemp. at
least, that's the theory!
in practise, because it was only being properly exported from
the main build scripts, subscripts that are then called were
not exporting it, at least that is my assumption because in
some cases, i found that the coreboot build system was leaving
errant files behind outside of our own TMPDIR, and that build
system did not seem to be setting TMPDIR itself; more debugging
is needed.
anyway: use the exact same logic, but do it from err.sh. since
err.sh is included from every lbmk script, that means it will
always be exported when running every single part of lbmk. this
should reduce the chance that mktemp creates files and directories
outside of our custom TMPDIR location.
this is because in lbmk, we mitigate unhandled tmpdirs/files by
unifying it in the manner described, then deleting the entire
TMPDIR on exit from the main lbmk parent process (the main
script that the user called from, which is always the "build"
file).
in lbmk, effort is made to clean up temporary files properly,
without relying on this catch-all, but we can't rely on that.
the catch-all should also be as robust as possible.

the temporary rom per build was not being deleted after
finishing the current target. this adds up in /tmp during
large builds, when building for many targets. fix this!

at present, the inject scripts compress refcode in a way
that is not reproducible, so there's no way to verify
that the firmware is correct, via checksum verification,
when injecting vendor code on release images
the lack of reproducibility in recompression will have to be
addressed, but the issue is that lbmk does not provide its own
sources for compression utilities, instead opting to use the
system's own compression utility
so the solution might be for lbmk not to use the host's utility,
and compile its own, or insert the refcode uncompressed. for now,
simply disable the hp 820 g2 target in libreboot releases
this uses the same logic recently implemented for excluding
mrc-based haswell images in libreboot releases
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
release="n" is set in target.cfg on haswell build targets
that use mrc.bin
script/update/release exports LBMK_RELEASE="y"
script/build/roms skips building a given target if release="n"
in target.cfg *and* LBMK_RELEASE="y"
you could also do the export yourself before running ./build roms,
for example:
export LBMK_RELEASE="y"
./build roms all
This would skip these ROM images. The native haswell raminit is
now stable enough in my testing, that I wish to delete the MRC-based
targets. This is in line with Libreboot's Binary Blob Reduction Policy,
which states: if a blob can be avoided, it should be avoided.
The problem is that users often run the inject script in *lbmk* from
Git, instead of from the src release archive. I forsee some users
running this on modern lbmk with older release images. If the mrc-based
target isn't there, the user may use an NRI-based target name, and
think it works; they will insert without MRC. I foresaw this ages
ago, which is why Caleb and I ensured that the script checks hashes,
and hashes are included in releases.
Therefore: for the time being, keep the MRC-based configs in lbmk
but do not include images for them in releases. This can be done
indefinitely, but I'll probably remove those configs entirely at
some point.
On the following boards, Libreboot now will *only* provide NRI-based
ROM images for the following machines:
* Dell OptiPlex 9020 SFF
* Dell OptiPlex 9020 MT
* Lenovo ThinkPad T440p
* Lenovo ThinkPad W541/W540
I now recommend exclusive use of NRI-based images, on Haswell
hardware. It's stable enough in my testing, and now supports S3.

sff happened to work, but mt would not boot with the patch,
because it called die() on unknown chassis type, and the gpio
happened to have a bad value in the old patch, because it wasn't
reading the right gpio.
i tested the fix on the old patch, but then decided to use
mate's new patch because instead of calling die(), it simply
boots with fan control disabled (max fan speed in that case),
if this happens again.
mt and sff have both been tested with this new version of the
patch. both of them boot, and they both have proper fan control.
