There are cases when grepping for an option in the config file where
grep will not find it, which is fine in this case, but without adjusting
the exit code in that case it can make an entire script bail out.
We need to handle the case where the specific config file doesn't exist,
or else grep fails, so we touch the file ahead of time. Mounting the usb
storage caused problems when you re-enter the menu a second time, so we
will just load the storage module.
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
This change will add a new GUI script that will allow users to change
their running configuration (currently just /boot and USB boot options)
and optionally persist that modified configuration with reflashing the
BIOS with a modified cbfs.
The install directly should basically behave like the "build" directory.
Since it's tracked by git, containing a gitignore file, we shouldn't
have it in the toplevel gitignore (just like the build directory).
But then, the toplevel Makefile's real.clean target removes the install
directory. This is changed so that only it's content is being removed.
When the Librem Key is enabled, the kernel loads USB modules at boot,
this causes PCR5 to change and breaks unsealing the LUKS key (if set).
This change retains the protection of the PCR5 check unless Librem Key
is enabled.
crossgcc is now using gcc 8.1.0 which will compile without issues
if your host system has gcc 8.x
This is required if we are to build on a new system (such as latest Fedora)
The current source URL is not available anymore.
kakaroto changed his copy of heads to point to his own github account's fbwhiptail:

But it seems that source.puri.sm/coreboot is a more accessible home for the
project.
