Don't insert special files like GRUB keymaps after
copying to the final destination.
Instead, copy the tmprom to /tmp and operate on that,
in these instances.
This is less efficient, depending on the user's
configuration; if /tmp is on the same file system as
the user's xbmkpwd, it should be fine. However, the
actual performance hit isn't that bad in practise,
on most setups.
If the user's /tmp is a tmpfs, then that means using
tmpfs, but it's one image at a time. It should be OK.

"not seauboot" is a valid check at present, but if
i start supporting other arguments in the future,
this code would have to change.
therefore, i change it in advance, on that theory.
this new check is more technically correct. these
lines are triggered when inserting grub keymaps.

Don't directly call a variable. Call a function that
checks the variable instead.
The new err function also checks whether an exit was
actually done, and exits 1 if not.
If an exit was done by the given function, but the exit
was zero, this is also corrected to perform an exit 1.
This fixes a longstanding design flaw of lbmk.

Many users report bugs, so I'm reverting lbmk back to only
supporting the rp2040 dongles for the time being. The
documentation will be updated to reflect this.
Pico2 support will be re-added at a later date, once more
testing has been done, and fixes made if necessary.
lbmk creates TMPDIR as /tmp/xbmk_*, but it's theoretically
possible that something could re-export it by mistake.
this change retains the same initialisation, but further
use is now via a new variable "xbmktmp", that stores the
value of TMPDIR upon lbmk's initialisation of it.
this reduces the chance of such a bug in the future, as
described above, so it is a preemptive/preventative fix.

the cbfs function will call cbfstool, which will perform
the same check, and the same error condition would cause
the same exit behaviour in lbmk. the error message would
also provide output that is just as useful for debugging.

several code lines were condensed together, which
make them less readable. make the code more readable

We were previously not handling picotool at all, and
pico-sdk would download picotool itself, at build time.
This means that the source archive, if created, would
not contain picotool. While not strictly required, for
complete corresponding source, since it's a toolchain
and not the actual pico-serprog firmware, it is my policy
that releases must include full corresponding source code,
when it is feasible to do so.
I must say, I intensely dislike cmake, with such burning
passion; I am thoroughly displeased by how hacky this is,
but it works and now nothing is in my way for a Libreboot
20241206 rev8 release!

There was also a condition in run_make_command that is now

light fixes, intended for Libreboot 20241206 rev8.

Don't extract to bin/release/
Modify the tarball instead. Previously, the tarball would
not be modified, but a lot of users thought the tarball was
being modified and ignored bin/release/, where the injected
images were actually being saved to.
Don't copy the tarball either. Just modify it in-place.
Don't allow single-rom injection either; only allow the
tarball-based method.
The command syntax has changed, but:
./mk inject tarball.tar.xz
This is the same. What has changed is nuke, and MAC address
modification. Observe:
./mk inject tarball.tar.xz nuke
./mk inject tarball.tar.xz setmac
./mk inject tarball.tar.xz setmac ??:??:??:??:??:??
./mk inject tarball.tar.xz setmac 00:1f:16:??:22:aa
These are just a few examples. The MAC address syntax is
the same as used for nvmutil, which means you can set it
randomly. Also:
./mk inject tarball.tar.xz setmac
You can use the *setmac* command *repeatedly*, even if
you've already injected a given archive. It'll just
update the archive, but skip injecting other files
that were already injected.
If you use setmac without a MAC address, it will randomise
the MAC address. This is therefore very similar to the
command structure used in nvmutil.
The code for injection is generally more robust, with
stronger error checks. This design change was done, so
that the user doesn't accidentally brick their machine.
The non-injected images have a prefix in the file name
saying "DO_NOT_FLASH", and those non-injected images are
padded by 1 byte. That way, the user knows not to flash it
and if they try, flashprog will throw an error.
The prefix and padding is removed on injection. Old images
without the padding/prefix can still be injected, via
tarballs; this new code is backwards-compatible with tarballs
from older Libreboot releases.
A common thing I see sometimes is a user will say they have
a black screen or something, and I say: did you insert vendor
files? And they say yes. And they did. But they extracted and
flashed from the tarball, which wasn't injected, because
they didn't release about bin/release/
No amount of RTFM is justified. The previous design flaw
is a bug. We must always observe user safety first, no matter
what, so that has now been done.

I believed that the compressed nature of refcode was the only
non-reproducible thing, but turns out you also need to run
rmodtool on the refcode to make the binary relocatable in
cbfs. This is based on my reading of the coreboot Makefile.
With this change, I can now provide release binaries for
the HP EliteBook 820 G2.

Previously serprog_rp2040, but we now also support
the RP2530 boards.
Therefore, serprog_pico is a nice generic name. The
directory on release archives will now be serprog_pico
instead of serprog_rp2040; it will contain serprog images
for both RP2040 and RP2530 devices.
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
rp2040 and rp2530 platforms can't share a cmake build directory. we
could just delete the build directory after every compilation, but that
would be really wasteful (every tool would need to be recomiled every
time. instead create new build directories as new plaforms are found
and symlink them to the point where the build directory used to be.
to find out which platform we're compiling for, we crudely parse the
board headers file.
there surely would be better ways to do this, but this hack works
with all the boards in pico-sdk 2.1.0.

in this setup, seabios is never the default payload, grub is,
but only if grub is enabled.
set this in target.cfg:
payload_grubsea="y"
if payload_grub isn't enabled, this is auto-set to n
ditto if initmode=normal
NOTE: if flashing libgfx setups, you should make sure
that you're not booting with a graphics card, only intel
graphics. this setting will intentionally not be documented,
because it's not recommended, but is being implemented for
testing purposes (and i implemented it for some guy who i
think is cool). i'll probably also use this myself, since
i already do grub-only setups on all my own machines.
seagrub is the default on x86 because of past instabilities
with grub. to mitigate in case of future issues, since seabios
is always stable, we reduce the chance of bricks.

Since U-Boot must be inserted at a specific offset, it's
theoretically possible that other files might overlap, but
cbfstool will work around wherever U-Boot was inserted if
it was inserted first; we don't use specific offsets for
the other files.
This is technically a preventative bug fix, but it fixes
a bug that would probably never occur in practise.

This is not a main script, and should not be treated as such;

The "normal" mode in lbmk is where no built-in GPU exists,
or no libgfxinit is used, and SeaBIOS is the first payload,
and SeaBIOS executes VGA ROMs (can't know if it'll start
in VESA or text mode).
U-Boot needs a VESA framebuffer or native coreboot
framebuffer to work correctly.

Same concept as SeaGRUB, but for U-Boot. SeaBIOS starts, but
has a bootorder file loading U-Boot first, from flash.
You can interrupt it with the ESC menu, to boot something else
in SeaBIOS, including GRUB.
With this, we can effectively provide extremely user-friendly
UEFI-first setups in Libreboot.
Take that, edk2!

For some reason, 32-bit U-Boot only works when executed from
GRUB, but not SeaBIOS; 64-bit U-Boot only works from SeaBIOS!
This will have to be investigated. Standalone U-Boot, where
U-Boot is the primary payload, has not yet been tested in
Libreboot, and will not be provided for some time due to
stability concerns. More testing is needed!

NOTE: Support added for xarch target x86_64-elf,
but U-Boot failed to build with this error:
OBJCOPY lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi
x86_64-elf-objcopy: lib/efi_loader/helloworld_efi.so: invalid bfd target
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.lib:476: lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi] Error 1
Since I'm building U-Boot for x86_64 *on* an x86-64
host, and since that is currently the recommended type
of machine to use for lbmk development, and since the
other x86 payloads currently don't cross compile anyway,
this is an acceptable compromise for now. This is because
at present, I'm not making U-Boot the primary payload on x86,
instead preferring to chain it from GRUB and SeaBIOS.
The target.cfg file for x86 u-boot shows xarch/xtree commented.
Uncomment these to compile on crossgcc instead of hostcc.
I mention 64-bit because I initially did this first, but decided
to do 32-bit first. I'll work on the 64-bit one next (SPL).
It's only enabled in QEMU for now.

the .git directory never exists anyway, when doing a release,
so the purpose this is intended is defeated by lbmk's design.
individual headers say "pcsx-redux team" as copyright anyway,
and the code for generating that COPYING file, with MIT license
and correct years (matching the entire source code for the
open bios) remains correct.
a mitigation instead of this patch might be to maintain a hardcoded
list of authors, and manually update it over time, but this is not
required. however, it may be good practise for upstream to maintain
such a file. perhaps i should contact them?
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
I also checked the copyright declarations in the
directory src/mips/openbios where the PCSX-Redux BIOS
is, gleaning all the copyright years: 2019-2024 at this
time.
The years will be updated as and when PCSX-Redux is
updated in lbmk. Their BIOS is under MIT so I made lbmk
generate an appropriate COPYING file alongside the binary,
containing:
Copyright (c) 2019-2024 PCSX-Redux authors
Along with the actual text of the MIT license. With all
of this, the PCSX-Redux BIOS can now be included in
Libreboot releases.
No actual tarball is created. The release script in lbmk
simply copies the bin/ directory to ../roms
I'm leaving the PCSX-Redux BIOS release uncompressed,
because, and this will sound patronising because that is
my precise intention: Windows users don't know how to do
anything. If I provide a tarball to Windows users, they
won't know what to do. Libreboot releases always go on rsync
mirrors, which also have HTTP servers with indexing enabled,
for browsing release files.
I mention Windows users, because most people who use the PCSX
Redux BIOS will probably use it on a PlayStation emulator, and
most emulator users are on Windows. I can't really be bothered
to provide it as a .zip archive, and it's only 512kb, so just
provide it uncompressed in Libreboot releases!
Releases were already possible under this scheme, so this
patch really just adds the COPYING file. It's simply a courtesy
to the PCSX-Redux developers, providing proper credit to them.

on 3050micro, we disable seabios as a primary payload,
making grub a pribary payload instead.
the way it worked, the roms were still named seagrub
and the seabios rom would be compiled, but with the wrong
path, so seabios wouldn't be executed; seabios would hang
anyway, on this board.
instead, engineer it in such a way as to disable seabios_
images on this board. also, rename seagrub_ to grub_.
i normally only permit seagrub, and not grub, but i make an
exception for 3050micro because we know grub works, but seabios
currently hangs on this board (which means no bsd).
