2015-05-21Remove address from GPLv2 headersPatrick Georgi
As per discussion with lawyers[tm], it's not a good idea to shorten the license header too much - not for legal reasons but because there are tools that look for them, and giving them a standard pattern simplifies things. However, we got confirmation that we don't have to update every file ever added to coreboot whenever the FSF gets a new lease, but can drop the address instead. util/kconfig is excluded because that's imported code that we may want to synchronize every now and then. $ find * -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, *MA[, ]*02110-1301[, ]*USA:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find * -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Suite 500, Boston, MA 02110-1335, USA:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find * -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place[-, ]*Suite 330, Boston, MA *02111-1307[, ]*USA:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find * -type f -exec sed -i "s:Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + $ find * -type f -a \! -name \*.patch \ -a \! -name \*_shipped \ -a \! -name LICENSE_GPL \ -a \! -name LGPL.txt \ -a \! -name COPYING \ -a \! -name DISCLAIMER \ -exec sed -i "/Foundation, Inc./ N;s:Foundation, Inc.* USA\.* *:Foundation, Inc. :;s:Foundation, Inc. $:Foundation, Inc.:" {} + Change-Id: Icc968a5a5f3a5df8d32b940f9cdb35350654bef9 Signed-off-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@chromium.org> Reviewed-on: http://review.coreboot.org/9233 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) Reviewed-by: Vladimir Serbinenko <phcoder@gmail.com>
2015-01-12libpayload: Let GDB stub read/write memory with aligned MMIO wordsJulius Werner
Looks like we got our first SoC that actually insists on using word-sized accesses for its MMIO registers with the Rk3288. This patch changes the GDB command handler for reading and writing memory to always perform word-sized accesses. This isn't really perfect since the remote GDB interface is just not really meant to interact with MMIO (e.g. you shouldn't use this on something with read side effects), but for most of our purposes it should be good enough. BUG=chrome-os-partner:18390 TEST=Remote GDB works on Veyron even when writing MMIO registers.

2015-01-09libpayload: Add remote GDB supportJulius Werner
This patch adds the ability to attach a GDB host through the UART to a running payload. Libpayload implements a small stub that can parse and respond to the GDB remote protocol and provide the required primitives (reading/writing registers/memory, etc.) to allow GDB to control execution. The goal of this implementation is to be as small and uninvasive as possible. It implements only the minimum amount of primitives required, and relies on GDB's impressive workaround capabilities (such as emulating breakpoints by temporarily replacing instructions) for the more complicated features. This way, a relatively tiny amount of code on the firmware side opens a vast range of capabilities to the user, not just in debugging but also in remote-controlling the firmware to change its behavior (e.g. through GDBs ability to modify variables and call functions). By default, a system with the REMOTEGDB Kconfig will only trap into GDB when executing halt() (including the calls from die_if(), assert(), and exception handlers). In addition, payloads can manually call gdb_enter() if desired. It will print a final "Ready for GDB connection." on the serial, detach the normal serial output driver and wait for the commands that GDB starts sending on attach. Based on original implementation by Gabe Black <gabeblack@chromium.org>. BUG=chrome-os-partner:18390 TEST=Boot a GDB enabled image in recovery mode (or get it to hit a halt()), close your terminal, execute '<toolchain>-gdb --symbols /build/<board>/firmware/depthcharge_gdb/depthcharge.elf --directory ~/trunk/src/third_party/coreboot/payloads/libpayload --directory ~/trunk/src/platform/depthcharge --directory ~/trunk/src/platform/vboot_reference --ex "target remote <cpu_uart_pty>"' and behold the magic. (You can also SIGSTOP your terminal's parent shell and the terminal itself, and SIGCONT them in reverse order after GDB exits. More convenient wrapper tools to do all this automatically coming soon.)
