This series supports running U-Boot as a payload on sc7180 Trogdor
Chromebooks like Lazor or Wormdingler. This is a jumble of different
patches to get to the final goal of booting a Linux distro from the eMMC
on Lazor. I'm able to boot Fedora Workstation 41 from a USB stick on my
Lazor.
I moved the reviewed patch to the start. After that one line fix there's
a few patches to add support for the particular SoC used on Trogdor
devices, sc7180. The next set of patches move the coreboot logic out of
arch/x86/ into lib/ to find the coreboot tables on ARM and stash them in
global data. Then I have a handful of patches to let the coreboot
commands and utilities parse and populate various things like pstore and
firmware details into the DTB with the proper data from the coreboot
tables. Finally, I add the calls to coreboot dram parsing code in the
snapdragon board so that if coreboot tables exist we get the memory info
from coreboot instead of from an earlier stage DTB.
I tested the SPI driver with the crosec command. The cros bootflow
method almost works, but it seems like chromeos userspace blows up
spectacularly likely because crossystem can't figure out what board it
is running on. I don't really care too much about booting chromeos
userspace here so I'm ignoring that problem.
I'm able to install fedora on Lazor with this as long as I start the USB
with CONFIG_PREBOOT=y. I tried to get this working on SC7280 Hoglin but
it crashed in Fedora. I'm not sure why but it could be because the
memory stuff was all wrong. Either way I hope it may work in the near
future.
The display is almost there but I suspect I'll need to do the whole
initialization all over again so I punted for now.
TODO:
* Get display working
* Implement FIT FDT picking similar to depthcharge based on coreboot
tables indicating the SKU and board id
Changes from v3 https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250428192427.3877612-1-swboyd@chromium.org
* GPIO chipselect in the SPI driver support
* sc7280 clk driver support for UART
* Enable the UART clk at probe
* Read VPD and inject the wifi MAC address
* Patch to inject wifi MAC from the environment
* Add a debug_board_init routine for trogdor to support early debug
* Add a defconfig
Changes from v2 https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250226221607.1283592-1-swboyd@chromium.org
* Check SPI proto in probe
* Handle pins differently in pinctrl driver
* Pick up tags
* Rebase to ToT
* Update pinctrl driver for new changes in last few months
* Add some more gates to clk driver to handle missing clk warnings
* New patch to locate coreboot tables early
Changes from v1 https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250220205900.3127680-1-swboyd@chromium.org
* Add Kconfig file in lib/coreboot/ to hold the coreboot config stuff
similar to EFI
* Couple new patches for ximg to support extracting the FDT from
chromeos kernel partitions
* Move the timestamp file out of arch/x86 as well in a different patch
