While we are here, this also remove the out-of-date description in the documentation regarding to coreboot framebuffer driver with U-Boot loaded as a payload from coreboot.

* x86: coreboot: Add generic coreboot payload supportBin Meng2018-08-201-15/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently building U-Boot as the coreboot payload requires user to change the build configuration for a specific board during menuconfig process. This uses the board's native device tree to configure the hardware. For example, the device tree provides PCI address range for the PCI host controller and U-Boot will re-program all PCI devices' BAR to be within this range. In order to make sure we don't mess up the hardware, we should guarantee the range matches what coreboot programs the chipset. But we really should make the coreboot payload support easier. Just like EFI payload, we can create a generic coreboot payload for all x86 boards as well. The payload is configured to include as many generic drivers as possible. All stuff that touches low level initialization are not allowed as such is the coreboot's responsibility. Platform specific drivers (like gpio, spi, etc) are not included.

* x86: cougarcanyon2: Remove CONFIG_HAVE_INTEL_MEBin Meng2018-06-131-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As README.x86 already mentions, there are two SPI flashes mounted on Intel Cougar Canyon 2 board, called SPI-0 and SPI-1 respectively. SPI-0 stores the flash descriptor and the ME firmware. SPI-1 stores the actual BIOS image which is U-Boot. Building a single image with both ME firmware and U-Boot does not make sense. This also describes the exact flash location where the u-boot.rom should be programmed in the documentation. Signed-off-by: Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
* SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel styleTom Rini2018-05-071-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line) and with slightly different comment styles than us. In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style. This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag and have introduced one. Signed-off-by: Tom Rini <trini@konsulko.com>

Serial number (serial# environment variable) is generated based on eMMC CID. MAC address on USB network interface is unique to the board but kept the same all over the time.
