Hi,
This series adds a coreboot CFR firmware-attributes driver.
v3 addresses Julius's review feedback that this does not belong under
platform/x86. The driver now lives under drivers/firmware/coreboot/,
next to the existing coreboot table consumers. To support that, the
firmware-attributes class helper is moved from drivers/platform/x86 to
drivers/firmware.
The series also renames drivers/firmware/google to
drivers/firmware/coreboot, because the drivers in that directory are
coreboot table drivers rather than Google-specific firmware drivers.
The existing CONFIG_GOOGLE_* symbols are intentionally kept to avoid
user configuration churn.
The CFR driver uses the existing firmware-attributes ABI. It exposes
runtime EFI variable-backed boolean, enum and integer options, skips
suppressed, volatile, dependency-gated and non-runtime options, and keeps
read-only or inactive options read-only in sysfs.
For CFR runtime-apply metadata using APM_CNT, x86 systems can apply a
setting immediately after writing the EFI variable. Non-x86 builds keep
the EFI write and report pending_reboot.
Changes in v3:
- Move the driver from platform/x86 to drivers/firmware/coreboot.
- Split out the firmware-attributes class helper move.
- Rename drivers/firmware/google to drivers/firmware/coreboot.
- Keep CONFIG_GOOGLE_* symbols unchanged.
- Keep coreboot bus internals private to drivers/firmware/coreboot.
- Keep CFR record definitions private to the CFR driver.
- Avoid rewriting EFI variables when userspace writes the current value.
Testing:
- Tested on a Star Labs Byte with firmware 26.07 and the driver built as a
module against Linux 6.17.
- Verified runtime APM_CNT apply with power_led.
- Verified reboot-needed behavior with debug_level.
- Built x86 objects with W=1 for the CFR/coreboot/helper path and touched
platform-x86 firmware-attributes users.
- Built ARM64 objects with clang for the CFR/coreboot/helper path.
- Passed git diff --check and scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict.

Move the firmware attributes class helper from drivers/platform/x86 to
drivers/firmware and expose its class declaration through a public Linux
header.
The helper is not x86-specific. Keeping it in firmware lets coreboot
firmware drivers use the standard firmware-attributes ABI without living
under platform/x86.

Most drivers in drivers/firmware/google are coreboot table drivers rather
than Google-specific firmware drivers. Rename the directory to coreboot
and update the Kconfig prompt, build path and maintainer entry.
Keep the existing CONFIG_GOOGLE_* symbols to avoid user configuration
churn in this mechanical move.

coreboot can publish a CFR tree in its coreboot table to describe
firmware setup options. Add a firmware-attributes driver for that table
entry under the coreboot firmware driver directory.
The driver exposes runtime EFI variable-backed boolean, enum and integer
settings through the firmware-attributes ABI. It only registers settings
with readable runtime EFI variables, skips suppressed, volatile,
dependency-gated and non-runtime options, and keeps read-only or inactive
options read-only in sysfs.
For settings with an APM_CNT runtime-apply record, write the EFI variable
and ask firmware to apply the setting immediately on x86. If firmware
reports a failure, restore the old EFI variable value. Settings without a
runtime apply hook, or non-x86 builds, keep the EFI variable update and
set pending_reboot.
Tested on a Star Labs Byte with firmware 26.07 and the driver built as a
module against Linux 6.17: runtime APM_CNT apply was verified with
power_led, and reboot-needed behavior was verified with debug_level.
