As part of the config gui we want to be able to have the system define
new config options without them being lost if the user makes their own
changes in CBFS. To allow that this change creates a function initiated
in init that combines all /etc/config* files into /tmp/config. All
existing scripts have been changed to source /tmp/config instead of
/etc/config. The config-gui.sh script now uses /etc/config.user to hold
user configuration options but the combine_configs function will allow
that to expand as others want to split configuration out further.
As it stands here are the current config files:
/etc/config -- Compiled-in configuration options
/etc/config.user -- User preferences that override /etc/config
/tmp/config -- Running config referenced by the BIOS, combination
of existing configs
if "CONFIG_TPM=y" is not present in the config file, functionalities
needing TPM could be disabled, while leaving other functionalities intact.
This will make Heads a more general-usage bootloader payload atop coreboot.
Changed the checking of required hashes or required rollback state
to be right before boot, allowing the user to sign/set defaults
in interactive mode.
Also cleaned up usages of recovery and fixed iso parameter
regression.
Refactored boot parsing code and applied that in local-init to
scan /boot for grub options and allow the user to unsafely boot
anything. This goes a long way to addressing #196.
Optionally the user can customize those boot parameters or enforce
arbitrary hashes on the boot device by creating and signing config
files in /boot/ or /media/ or /media/kexec_iso/ISO_FILENAME/.
Supports booting from USB media using either the root device or
a signed ISO as the boot device. Boot options are parsed with
quick/dirty shell scripts to infer kexec params.
Closes#195 and begins to address #196
