Marc, should we modify the LX build to somehow wget the VSA and copy it in to LAR? Or should we have a top-level "blob" directory in v3 that includes the vsa file, and then build it in to LAR?
Please don't store any blobs in the v3 tree directly.
I am probably going to put a wget for the vsa in the board or cpu or northbridge makefile; and add a rule to drop the vsa into blob/vsa in the LAR. Then in the pci setup bus scan phase I'll run the vsa --- the core is all there and almost right anyway.
Since we don't absolutely require buildrom to build a rom image, we need to make sure we can get a working coreboot image from the coreboot build.
Please don't. coreboot is not about the VSA, its not about VGA blobs or NIC blobs or Bob's random blob. Its about the core boot code. If it takes an extra step to build the final rom, well, so be it. Write a script or use an existing one.
