This reverts commit 5535cead (intel/skylake: Disable SaGv in recovery mode). Commit 5535cead disables SaGv in recovery mode to save few seconds booting time as we were doing memory training on every recovery flow. Now we don't need to perform MRC training on every recovery boot due to RECOVERY_MRC_CACHE implementation in place. Hence we don't need to define different SaGv policy between Normal (developer) mode and recovery mode to save few seconds. Using different SaGv parameters between recovery and all other mode has some significent drawbacks over warm reboot cycle. We are seeing a MRC traning hang in eve/soraka/poppy devices with below use case. Step 1: Boot system in developer mode (first time RW_MRC training) Step 2: Set recovery_request=1 (using crossystem) and issue “reboot” from OS Step 3: System will perform recovery mode MRC training and boot to OS (first time RECOVERY_MRC training) Step 4: Issue “reboot” from OS console. Step 5: System wil boot in developer mode (using RW_MRC cache) Step 6: Set recovery_request=1 (using crossystem) and issue “reboot” from OS Step 7: System will pick RECOVERY_MRC_CACHE and will hang during MRC training. This patch fixes issue mentioned above and ensures system boot to OS without any hang if we change mode (dev<->recovery) over warm reset. BUG=b:63515071 BRANCH=none TEST=manual stress testing of dev<->recovery mode over warm boot. No MRC hang with this fix on eve/soraka/poppy devices.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See https://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * https://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * https://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * make * gcc / g++ Because Linux distribution compilers tend to use lots of patches. coreboot does lots of "unusual" things in its build system, some of which break due to those patches, sometimes by gcc aborting, sometimes - and that's worse - by generating broken object code. Two options: use our toolchain (eg. make crosstools-i386) or enable the ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case). * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * pkg-config * libssl-dev (openssl) Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig' and 'make nconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------ If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see https://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: https://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: https://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
