the following patch was just integrated into master: commit 930ecd22286a3a8f708e562362cef1e3a81f0200 Author: Vadim Bendebury vbendeb@chromium.org Date: Fri Sep 30 14:21:03 2011 -0700
Introduce utility for parsing CBMEM contents.
This is a python script which is supposed to run on a target which is controlled by coreboot. The script examines top of memory looking for the CBMEM signature at addresses aligned at 128K boundary. Once the script finds the CBMEM, it iterates through the CBMEM table of contents and parses two entries: the timestamps and the console log.
This submission is just a template to build upon to create a utility for displaying CBMEM information while running Linux on the target.
