arm64: Bump exception stack size to 2KB To avoid trampling over interesting exception artifacts on the real stack, our arm64 systems switch to a separate exception stack when entering an exception handler. We don't want that to use up too much SRAM so we just set it to 512 bytes. I mean it just prints a bunch of registers, how much stack could it need, right? Quite a bit it turns out. The whole vtxprintf() call stack goes pretty deep, and aarch64 generally seems to be very generous with stack space. Just the varargs handling seems to require 128 bytes for some reason, and the other stuff adds up too. In the end the current implementation takes 1008 bytes, so bump the exception stack size to 2K to make sure it fits.

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.
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.
coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards.

ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case).Optional:
make menuconfig and make nconfig)Please consult https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details.
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.
