i actually went through all of lbmk and found no
instances where err calls were missing except in
build/boot/roms_helper

in some cases, messages that should be considered errors
or warnings, were being written to the standard output,
rather than written as error messages.
also: one or two printf statements should specifically
avoid printing errors (to any file); in these cases,
stdout has been redirected to /dev/null

these scripts used to be in the main directory of
lbmk, and thus needed to check for root user, and
also git credentials. now they are called by the main
lbmk script, which also runs the same checks.
avoid waste of resources by not running the same
check twice.

on e6400_4mb, the release build scripts remove nvidia's vga
rom which is used on dgpu models. however, microcode is also
removed in separately copied rom images
the inject script was inserting vgaroms directly into these
no-microcode roms, but the microcode blob is bigger than the
vga rom, and cbfstool inserts into the first available free
spot within cbfs, so it was inserting into the spot where
cpu microcode went. this caused the rom checksum to not match
what was generated during build/release/roms being executed
the only real fix is to guarantee offsets within cbfs for all
files, by recording what offsets were used and then calculating
that during insertion
so this patch is a workaround, but fixes the issue. the workaround
is: don't insert blobs directly on no-microcode roms, instead
insert only on microcode-based roms, then re-copy those roms
and remove microcode in aptly named copies
it's a bit more convoluted, but works perfectly fine.

sha-1 has known collision issues, which may not be readily
exploitable yet (in our context), but we should ideally use
a more secure method for checking file integrity.
therefore, use sha-2 (sha512sum) for checking files. this is
slower than sha-1, but checksum verification is only a minor
part of what lbmk does, so the overall effect on build times
is quite negligible.

My previous patch b0rked memtest and others because when making sure
their parent directory (the project root) exists, it would instead create
the project directory (memtest86lus). The later move would then put the
git repo inside that (memtest86plus/memtest86plus_123456).
We just need to make sure we don't create the target directory itself.
This way, there's no need to hardcode any project names.
Tested by ./updating rpi-pico-serprog, memtest86plus, grub and seabios.

we are copying large numbers of ROM images, and the
host system may have /tmp under a tmpfs; that same
host system may or may not have a lot of memory.

explicitly set the count to 3, so that a maximum of 3

the /tmp/ file system may be a tmpfs, with conservative
memory limits, depending on host system.
it's more likely that the user will have enough disk space
under tmp/ within lbmk (if they don't, they can't use
lbmk anyway). that is to say: more likely that they would
have the disk space, but not the memory.

the handling of target.cfg is *not* required, in
this script. other mechanisms are also used for
error checking. this script only uses defconfigs.

it doesn't really make sense for them to be under
blobs/ - nominally, they are blobs, but they are
well-understood data files containing config data,
that is easily parsed by tools like ich9show or
ifdtool (and tools like bincfg or nvmutil)
blobs/ has been re-purposed: this directory no longer
exists in lbmk, but it is created (and on .gitignore)
when needed, by blobutil
thus, the blobs/ directory shall only contain vendor
files, and only those files that libreboot scrubs from
releases. therefore, build/release/src can (and has
been) simplified; it currently copies just the ifd and
gbe files from blobs/, selectively, and this logic is
quite error prone, requiring maintenance. now, the
build/release/src script simply copies config/ (which
only ever contains distributable files) and entirely
ignores the blobs/ directory
the blob download script already creates the required
directory, except for the sch5545 download; this is
now fixed
lbmk code size is slightly smaller, due to this patch

The same ROM images that you flash on Intel GPU variants,
are now flashed on Nvidia models. The same ROM will work
on both. If an Intel GPU variant is present, libgfxinit
is used, and the VGA ROM is used if an Nvidia GPU variant;
however, release ROMs will scrub the nvidia option ROM,
so release ROMs will only work on Intel GPUs unless you
run the blobutil inject command.
I decided to no longer have this under WIP, but to put
it in master. The issue with it pertains to video drivers,
which is not Libreboot's problem.
Nouveau crashes under Linux, so use "nomodeset" if it does.
The "nv" drivers in BSD systems work very well.
The nvidia model of E6400 isn't recommended for other
reasons, namely: poor thermal cooling (thermal pad on
the GPU) and that Nvidia GPU doesn't get very good
performance on any libre drivers anyway. The Intel GPU
variant is better, in terms of power efficiency and
software support; the intel variant also works with
native graphics initialisation in coreboot.
This board port already only enables SeaBIOS, which will
simply execute the VGA ROM. Blobutil already supports
reading the config, detecting that a VGA ROM is needed,
because that part of the WIP E6400 branch was already
merged in lbmk master.

this means the unified /tmp handling is now provided for
in both the former "fetch" and "fetch_trees" script, which
are now (respectively):
./update project repo
./update project trees
if the fetch scripts weren't cleaning /tmp before, they
now are, because lbmk handles it
