commit 2452f559081e1b8e996ebbe2fc4cd08839561609 Author: Arthur Heymans arthur@aheymans.xyz Date: Sun Jan 15 14:24:56 2017 +0100
Allow to add a second bootblock at a 64K offset for BUC.TS
This allows to add a second bootblock at an offset of 64K in order for it to be used if the BUC.TS bit, RCBA(0x3414)[BIT0], is set.
This method is often used to flash coreboot when the vendor BIOS only write protects its bootblock at the bottom of flash (e.g. Lenovo thinkpad X60 and T60), but can also be used to have a backup while hacking on bootblock code.
TESTED on Thinkpad x60 and x200 (with with the line in romstage.c RCBA32(0x3410) = 0x00100461 changed to RCBA32(0x3410) = 0x00100460).
