Very nice ivybridge board that supports ECC RAM.
NOTE: I couldn't get onboard graphics working yet, but
this was confirmed working with a graphics card (in my
case nvidia quadra k420) booted in text mode on the SeaBIOS
payload. The GRUB payload also works, when loaded from SeaBIOS.
Therefore, this is a SeaBIOS-only board (as far as first payload
is concerned), but you can pick GRUB from the menu.
You could make it "GRUB-only" in practise by setting SeaBIOS
boot order to only load GRUB, and disable the SeaBIOS menu.
We refer to this as "SeaGRUB".
I've made lbmk use biosutilities and uefiextract, to
get at the SMSC SCH5545 Environmental Control (EC) firmware.
This firmware is needed for fan control. This is automatically
downloaded and extracted, from Dell UEFI firmware updates.
As with other blobs such as Intel ME, this firmware is then
scrubbed by the release build scripts. The blobutil "inject"
script can be used to re-insert it.
Of note: there is no fixed offset, but no other blobs to
be inserted in CBFS either, so the offset when re-inserting
on release ROMs should still be the same, and thus the ROM
checksums should match, when running blobutil inject.

coreboot revision:
d86260a134575b083f35103e1cd5c7c7ad883bce
from 2 August 2023
The patches were updated. HP 8300 USDT has now been merged upstream,
so that patch is no longer included in lbmk.
SD card fix for E6400 merged upstream, so now it's removed in lbmk.
The nvidia E6400 patch (devicetree.cb) has not yet merged upstream.
The ifdtool --nuke option has been rebased.
Patches as follow-ups to earlier patches removed; for example, patches
that set VRAM to 352MB on GM45 have been removed, and replaced with
patches that just set 256MB in the first place (this is more stable).
This was mostly a clean rebase, of all the patches. It went smooth.
I haven't updated cros/haswell yet; the 4.11_branch revision used
on fam15h will also remain, for now.
The coreboot configurations have been updated, for this new
revision of coreboot.

blobdir is incorrect, and it means that the directory

At present, the logic only tries backup URLs when an
actual download fails (bad internet connection or the
server is down).
If the main download succeeds, but it has a bad checksum,
the backup download is not attempted.
Since wrongly hashed files are to be assumed useless, we
may aswell delete and try the next file. This will guard
against the possibility of a vendor changing their file,
without changing the file name (non-versioned files, for
example, may be subject to such changes).

ME extraction didn't support unar (RAR format), for regular
extraction, after downloading a vendor file.
For bruteforce ME extraction, after extracting a vendor
archive, unar(RAR) and inno(innoextract) was not supported.
This patch fixes both issues. It should be noted that as of
now, the unar method has only been tested with certain HP
vendor updates, and it's currently not used on any of those.

Immediately after the last revision, which was a hacky
workaround to the problem, I realised the actual problem,
and the real solution:
In the switch block, check *backup* first. Then it breaks,
continuing on the iteration.
If it's variable for a main URL, it'll reliably go to the
next check in the block, whereas if it's backup, it'll
default to the first one in each case.
This bug has been annoying the sh*t out of me for ages,
and I've finally nailed it.

The script was actually downloading the backup, at
all times, for each given URL. The way we handle
this is quite buggy.
This patch is a workaround, a dirty hack in fact, but
it will do for now, because our backup URLs are always
wayback links where the original URL (matching the
correct main URL in the sources file) is always present,
in the URL.

this was taken from old libreboot. the last libreboot
revisions that had these boards were under the old
policy.
i left microcode disabled at first, because the old
coreboot 4.11 behaviour was to always insert microcode
regardless, so old libreboot patched out microcode
from the coreboot build system
however, 4.11_branch appears to actually honour microcode
configuration, so i do actually need to make sure it's
enabled in configs

the upstream link died. this patch makes it grab the
acpica tarball (for iasl) via libreboot rsync, where
i've added the corresponding tarball
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
Libreboot 20220710 was the last release to support these
boards. I plan to eventually port code differences between
D8/D16 to Dasharo, for KCMA-D8 support in Dasharo, to then
use in Libreboot for both KCMA-D8 and KGPE-D16, but I have
no plans to update the KFSN4-DRE code, at least for now.
Libreboot 20220710 used coreboot 4.11, whereas this patch
makes use of coreboot 4.11_branch; the crossgcc toolchains
no longer compile on modern distros, so I spent time patching
those (tested in Debian Sid, will also work on Arch Linux and
so on).
The acpica downloads now fail, in 4.11_branch, because Intel
made some changes upstream for these tarball downloads. Newer
coreboot works around this by grabbing tarballs from github,
itself a non-ideal solution, but I digress; this patch changes
coreboot crossgcc (in 4.11_branch) to download the acpica
tarball from libreboot rsync, where I've added it.
This patch also re-introduces the PIKE2008 fix, where empty
option ROMs for these are inserted into CBFS. This prevents
SeaBIOS from loading the real option ROMs, which would cause
SeaBIOS to hang. This means that SAS drives are not supported
in SeaBIOS, for these boards in Libreboot.
I previously said, in the Censored Libreboot c20230710
announcement, that I would *only* merge D8/D16 when I've
added Dasharo support to Libreboot, and use that, but the
work to make coreboot 4.11_branch compile is something I'm
quite proud of and I see no reason to exclude from lbmk
master branch.
Honestly, there's not much different than 4.11, code-wise.
I *probably* won't use 4.11_branch for the next Libreboot
release, on D8/D16. By then, I might have Dasharo integrated
in lbmk instead. We shall see.

This error was observed, in the coreboot build system:
In file included from src/lib/version.c:4:
build/build.h:10:32: error: 'libreboot' undeclared here (not in a function)
10 | #define COREBOOT_MAJOR_VERSION libreboot-20230625

src/lib/version.c:35:46: note: in expansion of macro 'COREBOOT_MAJOR_VERSION'
35 | const unsigned int coreboot_major_revision = COREBOOT_MAJOR_VERSION;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This happened on the 20230625 *release archive*, when a user tried to
build for W541 MRC on an Arch Linux container.
This change fixes the error. I never got the error on my end when
build testing the release archives, but this will prevent the error.
Fix it by only inserting libreboot version string YYYYMMDD representing
the Libreboot version. (libreboot uses ISO dates as version numbers)

I keep getting random linker issues when running:
./build boot roms all
I think the issue lies somewhere in here, from when
I did that massive audit. So I'm undoing the audit
which mostly re-factored the code style here.
These changes are being backported:
f338697b build/boot/roms: Support removing microcode
941fbcb run coreboot utils from own directory
f256ce98 build/boot/roms: say board name on stderr
I removed this change:
6d6bd5ee (the script now uses dedicated utils directory)
additionally:
cbutils is built much earlier on in the script, first
thing after initialising variables
the other changes not backported are all code style
changes, and I believe these are responsible.
if no other fixes occur to this fire before the next
libreboot release, then my hunch was right.

This reverts commit 2099545078.
Wasn't this config's fault, the problem happens elsewhere too.
I'm going to revert build/boot/roms to an older version and backport
a few recent changes, to see if that fixes the problem. If it does,
then I know that the recent linker issues happen due to recent changes
in build/boot/roms
The linker errors typically appear in util/kconfig/ but can happen
elsewhere, seemingly random, which means I'm not handling distclean
properly. Something isn't getting cleaned properly.
