[PATCH 0/3] SeaVGABIOS serial console test

by Kevin O'Connor

Hi Gerd, I was curious to see what the "sercon" stuff would look like in SeaVGABIOS instead of in SeaBIOS. So, I put together a quick prototype. The code is also at: https://github.com/KevinOConnor/seabios/tree/testing This is just a proof-of-concept thing - I didn't implement any of the useful features you have in your series. Specifically, it doesn't unclutter the serial output, doesn't implement cp437 translations, and doesn't handle multi-byte input. It does does have basic input, output, and split-output handling though. I'm not sure if this is better than a SeaBIOS implementation. I suspect it will be easier to handle vga quirks this way. However, handling exotic serial outputs (eg, mmio and usb based) would be better suited in SeaBIOS. Thoughts? -Kevin Kevin O'Connor (3): sercon: Initial support for VGA emulation over serial port sercon: Add basic keyboard input support sercon: Support "split output" mode Makefile | 2 +- vgasrc/Kconfig | 6 + vgasrc/sercon.c | 356 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ vgasrc/vgabios.c | 15 ++- vgasrc/vgabios.h | 5 + vgasrc/vgaentry.S | 7 ++ vgasrc/vgahw.h | 72 ++++++++++- vgasrc/vgainit.c | 12 +- vgasrc/vgautil.h | 24 ++++ 9 files changed, 482 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) create mode 100644 vgasrc/sercon.c -- 2.5.5

[PATCH] tpm: Log TPM 2 digest structure in little endian format

by Stefan Berger

The parameters for extending the PCRs of a TPM 2 are written in big endian format when sent to the TPM. However, the log needs to be written in little endian format, so we cannot just copy the structure into the log as-is. To support the little endian format in the log, we extend the function writing the TPM 2 digest structure with a parameter that allows us to choose the endianess of a few parameters. We then rewrite the digest structure in little endian format for the log.

[PATCH for-1.10-stable] drop "etc/boot-cpus" fw_cfg file and reuse legacy QEMU_CFG_NB_CPUS

since QEMU_CFG_NB_CPUS not going away anytime soon and serves the same purpose as just added "etc/boot-cpus" fw_cfg drop support for "etc/boot-cpus" while this code is not in use yet (i.e. QEMU with "etc/boot-cpus" hasn't been released) and reuse QEMU_CFG_NB_CPUS instead of it.

Patch: Add multiboot-capability to documentation

by Dennis Guse

Hello, so far the multiboot support is not included in the documentation. This small patch changes docs/Runtime_config.md to include multiboot. I think adding how to use multiboot with Grub would be nice, but this does not seem to fit to the content of Runtime_config.md. Do you have any suggestions where to put it? > This example shows how to start SeaBIOS from Grub2 via multiboot. SeaVGABIOS is passed as a module. ``` set root=(usb0,msdos1) multiboot /bios.elf.bin module /vgabios.bin name=vgaroms/seavgabios.bin boot ``` > Best, --- Dennis Guse

The multiboot support should allow one to pass modules from grub2 to SeaBIOS. I've not used multiboot, but this was an example posted in the past: menuentry "SeaBIOS (mb)" --unrestricted { root=ahci0,2 multiboot /bios.bin.elf module /vgabios_x230.rom name=pci8086,0166.rom } > So far, I can chainload Seabios from Grub2 (mostly via USB0). > Then Seabios is accessing the CBFS and automatically loads Grub2 from CBFS. I don't see why SeaBIOS would automatically chainload grub2 unless you asked it to. SeaBIOS only brings in payloads that are stored in the "img/" directory of CBFS - as long as one doesn't put images in that directory, SeaBIOS wont attempt to boot them. > For my case, it would be perfect if the roms (mainly VGA.rom) and > configuration would be compiled into the `bios.bin.elf`. > > I looked into the source and did not find a built in option for this > (I think nobody ever came with such a use case). > What would be a good starting point for me? There's no support for compiling in binaries to SeaBIOS. I'm CC'ing Vladimir as he added the multiboot support. -Kevin

Starting SEABIOS as Grub payload and NOT loading roms/configuration from CBFS

by Dennis Guse

Hey, I know usually Seabios is loaded by Coreboot and then Seabios loads its modules from CBFS. I want to do it slightly different: * Hardware starts coreboot (actually libreboot flashed to a Lenovo X60) * Coreboot starts Grub2 * Grub2 chainloads Seabios from external storage, e.g., USB0: `chainloader (usb0,msdos1)/bios.bin.elf` * Seabios starts and loads its roms and configuration NOT from CBFS My actual reason for not accessing CBFS is that I want to avoid flashing the CBFS to hardware for every change of Seabios or its configuration. However, I want to have VGA output... So far, I can chainload Seabios from Grub2 (mostly via USB0). Then Seabios is accessing the CBFS and automatically loads Grub2 from CBFS. For my case, it would be perfect if the roms (mainly VGA.rom) and configuration would be compiled into the `bios.bin.elf`. I looked into the source and did not find a built in option for this (I think nobody ever came with such a use case). What would be a good starting point for me? Best, --- Dennis Guse

SeaBIOS doesn't boot from secondary hard drive with OS if primary hard drive is empty

by Аладышев Константин

When I have 2 SATA disks attached to my board, and only second priority device is with OS, SeaBIOS doesn't boot. The "empty" disk doesn't have MBR, so SeaBIOS doesn't stuck on it, it goes to the end message "No bootable device. Retrying in 60 seconds." But if I manually press "ESC" and choose correct disk in interactive promt, system boots successfully. Two logs attached to the message (with and without "ESC" interaction). I use SeaBIOS (d7adf6044a4c772b497e97272adf97426b34a249) as a payload to coreboot.

Seabios build failure with gcc 6.2.0 in Debian Sid

Hi, I'm reporting a build issue that I'm seeing when building Xen's userspace tools, when the build process clones and build Seabios, on Debian Sid, with gcc '6.2.0 20161019 (Debian 6.2.0-9)'. The error looks like this (http://pastebin.com/99cubDZ3): make -C seabios-dir all make[6]: Entering directory '/home/SOURCES/xen/xen.git/tools/firmware/seabios-dir-remote' Compile checking out/src/stacks.o src/stacks.c: Assembler messages: src/stacks.c:567: Error: found `(', expected: `)' src/stacks.c:567: Error: junk `(%ebp))' after expression src/stacks.c:568: Warning: indirect call without `*' Makefile:133: recipe for target 'out/src/stacks.o' failed make[6]: *** [out/src/stacks.o] Error 1 make[6]: Leaving directory '/home/SOURCES/xen/xen.git/tools/firmware/seabios-dir-remote' /home/SOURCES/xen/xen.git/tools/firmware/../../tools/Rules.mk:218: recipe for target 'subdir-all-seabios-dir' failed Seabios folks may be aware of this already, as it looks very similar to this: https://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg1463516.h… And even more to this: https://lists.debian.org/debian-gcc/2016/10/msg00147.html A colleague of mine (Cc-ed) said in chat that gcc 6.2.1 (don't know on what distro) seems to build all fine.
