This includes extracting/adding certain regions, changing files inside the coreboot file system, swapping payloads, dumping/analyzing specific parts, etc. The number of tools at upstream is huge and many of them are platform specific, require patches or simply don't work at platforms other than Linux, but with such a package I no loner have to spin up Linux VMs to tinker around unless I want to build new images. I have patches for other tools around but those need polishing, so this is the basic package with generic handling for tools; adding new ones is trivial--perhaps this enables other interested users to add their favourite tool? Information for inst:coreboot-utils-4.11 Comment: collection of utilities to work with firmware images Description: coreboot is an extended firmware platform that delivers a lightning fast and secure boot experience on modern computers and embedded systems. As an Open Source project it provides auditability and maximum control over technology. While it is not (yet) possible to build coreboot firmware on OpenBSD, this package contains the following utilities to work with existing images: * ifdtool Extract and dump Intel Firmware Descriptor information Maintainer: Klemens Nanni <k...@openbsd.org> WWW: https://coreboot.orgNew tarball with MAKE_CMD now being inlined after feedback from laundry. CC is now also being honored by all tools; eventually I should fix their Makefiles to not set certain variables in stone, but that needs to be done with/in upstream. This tarball now contains the following tools: * cbmem CBMEM parser to read e.g. timestamps and console log * ectool Dumps the RAM of a laptop's Embedded/Environmental Controller (EC) * ifdtool Extract and dump Intel Firmware Descriptor information All three work perfectly on my X230. Feedback? OK to import and continue in-tree?
ok benoit@ to import !
