I'm adding a Geos platform driver that needs to be able to confirm that it's running on the correct hardware, and it does this by locating the Coreboot tables and parsing them for the vendor/part fields.
Unfortunately, it's not working entirely.
I borrowed code from flashrom's cbtable.c and tweaked it:
... #define BYTES_TO_MAP (1024*1024) struct lb_record *coreboot_init(void) { uint8_t *table_area; unsigned long addr, start; struct lb_header *lb_table; struct lb_record *rec, *last;
start = 0x0; table_area = phys_to_virt(start);
printk(KERN_INFO "trying %#x (%#x)\n", start, table_area); lb_table = find_lb_table(table_area, 0x00000, 0x1000); printk(KERN_INFO "find_lb_table returns %#x\n", lb_table); if (!lb_table) { printk(KERN_INFO "2nd try %#x (%#x)\n", start, table_area); lb_table = find_lb_table(table_area, 0xf0000 - start, BYTES_TO_MAP - start); printk(KERN_INFO "find_lb_table returns %#x\n", lb_table); } if (lb_table) { struct lb_forward *forward = (struct lb_forward *) (((char *)lb_table) + lb_table->header_bytes); printk(KERN_INFO "forward=%#x\n", forward); if (forward->tag == LB_TAG_FORWARD) { start = forward->forward; start &= ~(PAGE_SIZE - 1); table_area = phys_to_virt(start); printk(KERN_INFO "3rd try %#x (%#x)\n", start, table_area); lb_table = find_lb_table(table_area, 0x00000, 0x1000); printk(KERN_INFO "find_lb_table returns %#x\n", lb_table); } }
if (!lb_table) { msg_pinfo("No coreboot table found.\n"); return NULL; }
addr = ((char *)lb_table) - ((char *)table_area) + start; msg_pinfo("coreboot table found at 0x%lx.\n", (unsigned long)lb_table - (unsigned long)table_area + start); rec = (struct lb_record *)(((char *)lb_table) + lb_table->header_bytes); last = (struct lb_record *)(((char *)rec) + lb_table->table_bytes); msg_pdbg("coreboot header(%d) checksum: %04x table(%d) checksum: %04x entries: %d\n", lb_table->header_bytes, lb_table->header_checksum, lb_table->table_bytes, lb_table->table_checksum, lb_table->table_entries); search_lb_records(rec, last, addr + lb_table->header_bytes);
return rec; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(coreboot_init);
const char *coreboot_vendor(void) { return lb_vendor; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(coreboot_vendor);
const char *coreboot_part(void) { return lb_part; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(coreboot_part);
And obviously threw in some debugging.
Here's what I get when I run it:

What am I missing? What's wrong with the forward pointer?
Thanks,
