lib/cbmem_console: Add cbmemc_copy_in function When running in verstage before bootblock, the PSP (ARM co-processor) is running with limited SRAM. It needs to stash the verstage console data internally until DRAM is brought up. Once DRAM is brought up the data is stashed in a "transfer buffer" region. In the current design, we are using the same region for the transfer buffer and the preram_cbmem_console region. This has the following downsides: 1) The pre-x86 buffer needs to be large enough to hold all the verstage, bootblock and romstage console logs. 2) On AMD platforms, the PSP verstage is signed. Changing the size of preram_cbmem_console after the fact will result in a mismatch of the transfer buffer between verstage and bootblock. This CL adds a new method that allows SoC specific code to copy the CBMEM console in the transfer buffer to the active CBMEM console.

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.

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.
