- xx30 legacy boards (x230, x230-flash, t430, t430-flash) now rely also on coreboot 4.13
- DOWNSIDE: x230 and t430 legacy boards now rely on WHIPTAIL (NOT FBWhiptail) to have enough space to fit under 7mb)
- xx20 boards moved to 4.13 (no need of xx20-flash boards here since single SPI boards with 7.5mb useable since blobs scripts are required)
- DOWNSIDE: all xx20 boards now have dropbear deactivated, while still having ethernet driver in.
- qemu-coreboot and qemu-coreboot-fbwhiptail switched to coreboot 4.13 WITHOUT TPM SUPPORT (with cryptsetup 2.x support)
- DOWNSIDE:
- coreboot-qemu board CBFS_SIZE=0x700000 -> 0x750000
- coreboot-qemu-fbwhiptail CBFS_SIZE=0x750000 -> 0x780000
- CircleCi build recipe removes 4.8.1 boards altogether
- KGPE-D16 workstation is used as new base build to save workspace layer (we removed one workspace layer)
- Removing one workspace layer will save approx 2 hours of build time on fresh builds
- Removing one coreboot version will save us approx 2 hours of build time on fresh builds
- KGPE-D16 will stay to coreboot 4.11 until forward notice.
- All other board configs SHOULD be built on latest coreboot versions
* config/coreboot-*: drop CONFIG_LOCALVERSION
Will be injected as part of the build using $(HEADS_GIT_VERSION)

* modules/coreboot: inject $(HEADS_GIT_VERSION) as CONFIG_LOCALVERSION
Needed for fwupd to handle board updates

* modules/coreboot: override SMBIOS ProductName with $(BOARD)

* Use $(BOARD)-$(HEADS_GIT_VERSION) as basis for output filename
makes builds uniquely identifiable based on board and version.

* x230-hotp-verification: revert to coreboot "CONFIG_CBFS_SIZE=0x700000" by disabling board "CONFIG_DROPBEAR=y" and "CONFIG_LINUX_E1000E" to save space per @alex-nitrokey test under #770 to fix#608
* x230-htop-verification board: add clarifications on x230 board differences. Fixes#737#770#608
* X230 board & coreboot config: Fix x230 board, removing dropbear and e1000e driver.
* t430: board and coreboot config par with x230 to circumvent CBFS linked suspend/resume issues.
Add ability to change CMOS values by genning SMBIOS tables and using the values from stock bios, this allows for editing of SMBIOS values to change things such as VRAM allocation, FN and CTRL key swap etc
This changes Heads' bootscript for the x230 to gui-init and adds config
options needed for it. The config is very similar to the librem13v2 config.
My comparison of startup-time from a power-button press shows 2.5 seconds
more with these changes applied.
That said, the experience is smooth, the GUI is beautiful and easier to use
than the shell and text menu, especially during setup. That's what we
buy with startup time here.
This touches most of the module configurations since the
coreboot build process had to add a few new features.
The Linux kernel could make use of it as well if we need
separate x230/chell/qemu kernels, for instance.
