librems vs mainline have:
- mei module not compiled in
- Streamline modules/linux Makefile helpers so that one asks on console for new Kconfig options to be y/n, another one to do olddefconfig (accept new defaults)
- Exercice proves again that oldconfig exposes new things added into kernel by default as opposed to defconfig format.
- Add TCP Syn cookies to all linux configs (all boards add CDC tethering AFAIK. Add this protection by default)
- Remove unneeded network card drivers from librems common and unify
- Remove unneeded microsoft surface drivers from librems common and unify
- Remove WMI embedded Binary MOF driver CONFIG_WMI_BMOF
- Unify removed Kconfig options from x230 ported to 6.1.8 to librems common
- Verify qemu (AMD) changes working (note, there is clock source watchdog that would need to be investigated seperately for QEMU TCG mode, that is, not KVM)
- Review crypto backend requirements/unify once more
- Removed bunch of unused stuff under QEMU Q35 (AMD)
Q/A:
- CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_NONE vs CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_FULL? CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_NONE now.
- CONFIG_LDISC_AUTOLOAD=y?
- CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL=y?
- CONFIG_X86_THERMAL_VECTOR=y?
- ACPI-WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) mapper device (PNP0C14) enabled by ACPI_VIDEO and depended by DRM drivers.
- ACPI_VIDEO seems needed.
- CONFIG_INPUT_VIVALDIFMAP=y anabled by CONFIG_KEYBOARD_ATKBD (AT/PS2 Keyboard)

kgpe-d16 linux configs: disable CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_NI_INTEL (not avail on AMD)
This applied to Q35 qemu board which is AMD, not intel.
generic AES needs to be enabled on non-intel boards, otherwise cryptsetup doesn't know how to deal with xts-plain
Then saved back with linux.save_in_oldconfig_format_in_place
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y: Remove preemptiveness for servers. Under heads, we are single tasking. No point having this big thing in kernel https://lwn.net/Articles/746780/
IO scheduler: only enable CONFIG_MQ_IOSCHED_DEADLINE=y since we want maximum throughput and do not have concurrent tasks
CONFIG_CPU_ISOLATION=y : Enable CPU Isolation accross all boards: this permits to make sure that the kernel tasks running on a CPU are not distrurbed bu user tasks
CONFIG_MULTIUSER not defined: Removing cluttering since we are single root user under Heads anyway
CONFIG_IO_URING=y : limit number of copy operations between kernel and user space from apps
CONFIG_ZONE_DMA not defined: relevant for older hardware (less then 32bit addressing space)
CONFIG_X86_MPPARSE not defined: relevant for older smp systems
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE is enabled and SCHEDUTIL is disabled: we want performance with CPU sched with deadline IO.
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_INTEL_UNCORE and CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_INTEL_CSTATE not defined: we want max perf on Heads
CONFIG_X86_VSYSCALL_EMULATION not defined: no need for syscall emulation under Heads
CONFIG_SECCOMP not defined : usefull if BPF is enabled and used.
CONFIG_ACPI_SPCR_TABLE=y : usefull for serial redirection table and earlycon
CONFIG_PCI_MMCONFIG CONFIG_MMCONF_FAM10H unset but for kgpe-d16 which is either fam10h of fam15h
CONFIG_DM_SNAPSHOT=y CONFIG_DM_THIN_PROVISIONING=y so that recovery shell can provide LVM/DM functionality in later PR.
CONFIG_EXFAT_FS=y so that exfat preformated thumb drives can work out of the box
Adjust CONFIG_HW_RANDOM per platform, removing CONFIG_HW_RANDOM_TIMERIOMEM
Only support processor family needed per board (AMD only AMD, Intel only Intel, removing CONFIG_CPU_SUP_HYGON CONFIG_CPU_SUP_HYGON CONFIG_CPU_SUP_CENTAUR CONFIG_CPU_SUP_ZHAOXIN CONFIG_CPU_SUP_ZHAOXIN everywhere
qemu: support both AMD and INTEL as an exception for the above.

EC signatures requires that the digest has the corresponding length. Removing the hardcoded sha2-256 hash function and adding support of sha2-384 and sha2-512 should allow using EC crypto.
Testing point:
- All board configs not explicitely stating export CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD=y should not have any impact
- librem_l1um, kgpe-d16_workstation-usb_keyboard, librem_mini_v2 and librem_mini will loose USB Keyboard input with this commit alone.

Resulting in only linux-kgpe-d16_workstation.config being updated.
For KGPE-D16 workstation boards:
Remove `console=tty0` from `CONFIG_BOOT_KERNEL_ADD` as was blocking Qubes graphical installer (CLI installer was launched).
Comment out `export CONFIG_BOOT_KERNEL_REMOVE="plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles"` to provide a more desktop like experience.
Removed 0001-cpu-x86-smm-Use-PRIxPTR-to-print-uintptr_t.patch as already exists as 0000-cpu-x86-smm-Use-PRIxPTR-to-print-uintptr_t.patch
Added 0020-kgpe-d16_measured-boot-support.patch for coreboot 4.11
Fix TPM errors when microcode is measured by initialising TPM earlier and loading the microcode later.
Thanks to Michał Żygowski <miczyg1> for condition suggestion: `if (CONFIG(MEASURED_BOOT) && CONFIG(LPC_TPM) && boot_cpu())`
Locate bootblock location and size with CBFS API. Credit to: Michał Żygowski <miczyg1>
Bring patches/coreboot-4.11 on par with master
Removed patches/coreboot-4.11/0020-kgpe-d16-vboot.patch
Removed Vboot options from KGPE-D16 coreboot configs
Enabled TPM in kgpe-d16 board configs
Enabled measured boot in kgpe-d16 coreboot configs.
Added support for video cards that require nouveau, radeon and amdgpu drivers in linux-kgpe-d16_workstation.config
`nouveau.config=NvForcePost=1` to be added to kexec'd kernels for better Nvidia card support.
Changing CONFIG_USB_BOOT_DEV to sdc1, adding back CONFIG_BOOT_STATIC_IP to 192.168.2.3, adding dual console to OpenBMC and tty0 in attempt to have QubesOS graphic installer which complains with no networking when attempting to start VNC
Adding dual console to OpenBmc and tty0
putting kgpe-d16-coreboot.conf in defconfig format
NO_HZ wasn't included in kernel config. Adding it.
Wasn't able to have both console firing up QubesOS gui installer, complaining about hvc1 console errors. Splitting up Workstation and server config. This one works for Worstation
Removing serial configuration and static IP stuff since we have a workstation here.
Seperate Workstation and Server board configurations until dual console truely works through QubesOS gui installation. kgpe-d16 board config removed until then.
Placing files in good directories
Corrrect flashrom options for kgpe-d16 server and workstation boards
kgpe-d16 linux: NO_HZ_IDLE instead of NO_HZ
kgpe-d16: seperate board for workstation to be AST and gui-init based, while kgpe-d16-> kgpe-d16_server
kgpe-d16_server: boots, shows ASpeed text on VGA, controllable through BMC via SSH.
kgpe-d16_workstation on ASpeed console. WIP. (Includes CIs configs to build server and workstation)
kgpe-d16_workstation in defconfig format
kgpe-d16 boards: pass from GPG to GPG2 board definitions
kgpe-d16_workstation : Adding Cairo and FbWhpitail in board config for gui-init to work in FB mode
kgpe-d16: removing plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles to fix server terminal output
kgpe-d16: bring par with staging branch https://gitlab.com/tlaurion/heads/commits/kgpe-d16_staging
kgpe-d16 : expressively export CONFIG_TPM=n
kgpe-d16_wokstation gui-init variables were missing
kgpe-d16 boards: add CONFIG_LINUX_USB_COMPANION_CONTROLLER so that usb is recognized
linux-kgpe-d16*: add support for Pike
kgpe-d16_workstation-usb_keyboard board support addition
kgpe-d16_server-whiptail: Add board and dependencies to have gui-init in whiptail (console mode, not FbWhiptail based
GitlabCI: kgpe-d16 fixes and upstream merge of change
kgpe-d16* board: add statement to fixate coreboot version to 4.8.1 for the moment
kgpe-d16: add missing config/linux-kgpe-d16_server-whiptail.config file
KGPE-D16: community work migration to coreboot 4.11 to fix issue #740
KGPE-D16 boards: Adding VBOOT+measured boot, musl-cross patch and 4.11 patch brought up per https://github.com/osresearch/heads/pull/709
kgpe-d16* boards: add VBOOT Kconfig patch per @miczyg1 recommendation under https://github.com/osresearch/heads/pull/795#issuecomment-671214637
KGPE-D16* coreboot configs: Add S3NV as a Runtime data whitelist (so that it is not measured at term) per @miczyg1 recommendation under https://github.com/osresearch/heads/pull/795#issuecomment-671214637
kgpe-d16 coreboot 4.11: add https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/36908 patch
kgpe-d16 boards: add Linux kernel version where missing.
CircleCI: Add debug output on fail for kgpe-d16 board builds to bring par with upstream after rebasing on master
coreboot module: typo correction (tabs vs spaces)
CircleCI: trying to address "g++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus." happening under coreboot 4.11 and coreboot 4.12 builds
CircleCI: remove past addition to test recommendation from CircleCI: "resource_class: large"
CircleCi: Ok.... lets output dmesg content prior of other logs.... I'm out of ideas. Next step, ask CircleCI for support
At this stage:
- job's "make --load" is supposed to guarantee that the number of thread doesn't exhaust pass of a load of 2 (medium, free class, CircleCI has 32 cores so possibility of a load of 32)
- "--max_old_space_size=4096" in CircleCI environement is supposed to limit memory consumption to 4096Mb of memory, the max of a medium class free tier CircleCI node
CircleCI: remove verbose build (no more V=1), in case of failed build, find all logs modified in last minute and output each of them on console.
coreboot module: implement load average respect inside of problematic CI build for coreboot 4.11+ being killed in the action (32 cores with 4Gb ram get gcc OOM)
coreboot module: replace nproc by number of Gb actually available as number of CPUs, since each thread is expected to have 1Gb of ram.
CircleCI & coreboot config: fix merge conflict rebasing on master
coreboot 4.11 kgpe-d16 vboot patches addendum, credits goes to @Tonux599
Fix merge conflicts and make sure all boards are inside of CircleCI builds. PoC build for #867
