Add support for ram payloadsrampayload
This is enabled by CONFIG_RAMPAYLOAD. The code will look for a ram payload and, if it is found, try to run it. If the load fails or the payload returns it will continue with ramstage. We also include a new payload, linuxcheck, which is intended to verify that linux can be loaded and run, e.g. as a LinuxBoot payload. Currently, it fails. This does not yet work but it makes sense as a foundation on which to build. For one thing, we need to build at least a few tables for Linux. The goal for LinuxBoot is to build as few as possible. To test with linuxcheck (linux is not even close to working): cd payloads/linuxcheck/ cp x86config .config make cd ../.. make ./build/cbfstool build/coreboot.rom add-payload -n fallback/rampayload -f payloads/linuxcheck/linuxcheck.elf qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -m 8192 -bios build/coreboot.rom -monitor /dev/pts/$1 -s We need to change the payload menu so we can add a rampayload but it's a bit tricky as written, so that must come later. Note that I'm still creating a special purpose romselfboot. The idea of merging romselfboot and selfboot is probably a good idea -- in the future. I think until we know how this should look, such a merge is premature. Signed-off-by: Ronald G.
