krane-fb-stub: arm64 framebuffer test payload for depthcharge
Minimal freestanding arm64 binary that depthcharge boots as a kernel: parses depthcharge's /firmware/coreboot DTB node, walks the coreboot table, finds LB_TAG_FRAMEBUFFER, and paints red/yellow/green/blue checkpoints (~2s each) into the live boot-splash framebuffer. Verified against coreboot tables header, Linux arm64 booting.rst, and depthcharge's fit.c/boot64.c. Host parser tests pass against the live /sys/firmware/fdt; full red->yellow->green->blue sequence verified end-to-end under qemu-system-aarch64; packed image verifies with the ChromeOS devkeys.

# krane-fb-stub
|
||||
|
||||
Minimal arm64 "hello framebuffer" payload for the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet
|
||||
Chromebook (MT8183, `google,krane` sku176). It validates the
|
||||
depthcharge → custom-payload pipeline before any U-Boot bring-up work:
|
||||
it locates the boot-splash framebuffer handed over by coreboot/depthcharge
|
||||
and paints solid colors at checkpoints.
|
||||
|
||||
## Checkpoint convention
|
||||
|
||||
Parsed first (instantaneous), then drawn — see Deviations:
|
||||
|
||||
| stage | success signal | failure signal |
|
||||
|-------|---------------------------------------|-------------------------------------|
|
||||
| 1 | screen RED ~2s | screen keeps depthcharge output — DTB parse failed |
|
||||
| 2 | YELLOW ~2s | (yellow implies DTB parsed) |
|
||||
| 3 | GREEN ~2s | stuck on yellow — LBIO/fb record bad|
|
||||
| 4 | BLUE, held forever | stuck on green — fb fill faulted |
|
||||
|
||||
If the stub never runs at all (header rejected, load failed), depthcharge
|
||||
falls back to its own screen — no color ever appears.
|
||||
|
||||
## Files
|
||||
|
||||
- `stub.S` — 64-byte arm64 Image header + entry stub (own stack, no PLT).
|
||||
- `main.c` — FDT walker, coreboot-table walker, framebuffer painter.
|
||||
- `linker.ld` — flat layout, `.bss` asserted empty (image_size must cover
|
||||
all state because depthcharge does not zero-fill beyond the file).
|
||||
- `build.sh` — build + relocation/bss checks + `image_size` patch.
|
||||
- `host_test.c` — host-compiled test of both parsers against the live
|
||||
`/sys/firmware/fdt` and a synthetic LBIO table.
|
||||
- `qemu_test.py` — end-to-end smoke test under `qemu-system-aarch64`
|
||||
(synthetic coreboot table + DTB; asserts red→yellow→green→blue timeline).
|
||||
- `build-payload.sh` — packs `krane-fb-stub.bin` + `krane-sku176.dtb` into a
|
||||
signed depthcharge image via mkdepthcharge.
|
||||
- `krane-fb-stub.bin` — raw arm64 Image (18 KB).
|
||||
- `krane-fb-stub-payload.bin` — packed, devkey-signed depthcharge image,
|
||||
verified with `futility vbutil_kernel --verify`.
|
||||
- `krane-sku176.dtb` — the exact krane sku176 DTB from the currently-booting
|
||||
FIT on this unit (extracted with `dumpimage` from the p1 FIT, config
|
||||
conf-27 `mt8183-kukui-krane-sku176`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Verification performed (per the prompt's "verify against source" list)
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. coreboot table layout — CHECKED, matches prompt
|
||||
Cloned coreboot `main`; read
|
||||
`src/commonlib/include/commonlib/coreboot_tables.h`:
|
||||
- `physical_address` is `lb_uint64_t` = `__aligned(4) uint64_t`
|
||||
(`LB_ENTRY_ALIGN == 4`). On little-endian AArch64 this is a plain
|
||||
8-byte LE u64 at offset 8 of `struct lb_framebuffer`; the "hi/lo split"
|
||||
is only an alignment trick, not separate halves in memory.
|
||||
- Full struct is 40 bytes: `tag@0, size@4, physical_address@8,
|
||||
x_resolution@16, y_resolution@20, bytes_per_line@24, bits_per_pixel@28,
|
||||
red 29/30, green 31/32, blue 33/34, reserved 35/36, orientation@37,
|
||||
flags@38, pad@39`. Verified by compiling a `sizeof`/`offsetof` probe
|
||||
against the real header on the host (`sizeof == 40`).
|
||||
- `lb_header` matches the prompt: `signature[4] "LBIO"`, then
|
||||
`header_bytes, header_checksum, table_bytes, table_checksum,
|
||||
table_entries` (LE u32 each). Records start after `header_bytes`.
|
||||
- `LB_TAG_FRAMEBUFFER = 0x12` confirmed.
|
||||
- Cross-check on this live unit: parsing the live `/sys/firmware/fdt`
|
||||
(which contains depthcharge's injected `/firmware/coreboot` node)
|
||||
yields LBIO at `0xffed9000`, size `0x380` — matches the prompt.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. arm64 Image header — CHECKED against Linux `booting.rst`
|
||||
- 64-byte header, magic `0x644d5241` ("ARM\x64") at `0x38`, LE fields.
|
||||
- `code0` must branch past the header; entry is at the image start with
|
||||
`x0`=DTB phys addr, `x1..x3`=0, MMU off, DAIF masked.
|
||||
- `image_size` must be exact (non-zero), little-endian.
|
||||
- Cross-checked against depthcharge's consumer: `src/arch/arm/boot64.c`
|
||||
reads the same header (magic check, `image_size`, `text_offset` as
|
||||
`load_offset` for KASLR slot math).
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. depthcharge behavior — CHECKED against chromiumos depthcharge source
|
||||
- `src/arch/arm/boot64.c`: image is decompressed/relocated to a random
|
||||
2 MiB-aligned slot; the **Image header magic is verified**; entry is the
|
||||
first byte of the (relocated) image; x0 = flat DTB, x1..x3 = 0
|
||||
(`boot64_asm.S` zeroes x1-x3, disables MMU, `br x25`).
|
||||
- => the stub must be position-independent (built `-fPIC`, checked for
|
||||
zero dynamic relocations) and carry its own stack (done, 16 KiB inside
|
||||
the image).
|
||||
- **Prompt assumption contradicted by source:** a FIT config *without* an
|
||||
FDT subimage is skipped (`fit.c`: "config %s has no FDT, skipping"), and
|
||||
with no match depthcharge gives up. So the packed FIT **does** include a
|
||||
DTB — the real krane-sku176 DTB taken from the working FIT — while
|
||||
depthcharge still injects its own `/firmware/coreboot` node at boot via
|
||||
`src/boot/coreboot.c` `install_coreboot_data` (it adds `#address-cells`,
|
||||
`#size-cells`, `ranges`, `compatible`, and the `reg` pairs to
|
||||
`/firmware/coreboot`). Our DTB is only a config-selection key; the
|
||||
runtime DTB the stub receives at x0 is depthcharge's fixed-up tree.
|
||||
- depthcharge injects `/firmware/coreboot` reg = (table addr, CBMEM addr)
|
||||
in `src/boot/coreboot.c`; the krane root DTS uses
|
||||
`#address-cells=2/#size-cells=2`, so the first reg pair decodes to
|
||||
LBIO @0xffed9000 size 0x380 — matching the prompt.
|
||||
- Existing kernel p1 body confirmed to be a FIT (`d00dfeed` at body
|
||||
offset 0), body load address 0x100000, so FIT (`--format fit`, the arm
|
||||
default in mkdepthcharge) is the right container.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. mkdepthcharge input format — CHECKED, answers the prompt's question
|
||||
- `mkdepthcharge` builds the FIT itself (`mkimage -f auto -T kernel
|
||||
-O linux -C none -d <vmlinuz> -b <dtbs>`, then patches the kernel
|
||||
subimage type to `kernel_noload`), then signs with `vbutil_kernel`.
|
||||
- A raw arm64 Image binary can be passed **directly** as `-d`/VMLINUZ —
|
||||
no manual uImage wrapping. mkdepthcharge auto-detects arm64 from the
|
||||
`ARM\x64` magic at file offset 0x38 and defaults to FIT format for arm.
|
||||
- Packed command (see `build-payload.sh`):
|
||||
`mkdepthcharge -A arm64 -o <out> -n <desc> -d krane-fb-stub.bin -b krane-sku176.dtb`
|
||||
- The packed image verifies with the devkeys and carries one config
|
||||
(`conf-1`, description "krane-sku176") with `kernel_noload` + `flat_dt`
|
||||
subimages, compression `none` — the same shape as the working kernel.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deviations from the prompt (all deliberate, explained)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Red-on-entry is physically impossible.** The framebuffer address is
|
||||
only discoverable by parsing the DTB (depthcharge injects it) and the
|
||||
coreboot table. Parsing is sub-millisecond, so the sequence is:
|
||||
parse → red → yellow → green → blue. A pre-parse failure leaves
|
||||
depthcharge's dev-mode screen visible, which is a strictly better
|
||||
"stuck at stage N" indicator than a stuck color (a stuck color would
|
||||
hide *which* parse failed; an unpainted screen + depthcharge's own
|
||||
on-screen error identifies the stage).
|
||||
2. **A DTB is included in the FIT** (contrary to "no DTB"): this unit's
|
||||
depthcharge requires an fdt subimage in the chosen config. We embed the
|
||||
genuine krane sku176 DTB; depthcharge's fixup adds the coreboot node at
|
||||
runtime, exactly as the prompt's hardware facts describe.
|
||||
3. Colors are derived from the mask_pos/mask_size fields of the framebuffer
|
||||
record rather than hard-coded xRGB — works for any format the panel
|
||||
reports (krane reports 32bpp xRGB: red@16/8, green@8/8, blue@0/8).
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing done (host)
|
||||
|
||||
- `host_test` (host C): FDT parser against the LIVE `/sys/firmware/fdt`
|
||||
(finds LBIO @0xffed9000 size 0x380 — exact match to the prompt's
|
||||
manually-confirmed values), synthetic coreboot table layout test,
|
||||
color composition for all four checkpoints, and full-screen fill bounds
|
||||
(first/last pixel written, no overflow past `yres*bpl`).
|
||||
- qemu end-to-end: real stub binary + real krane DTB + synthetic coreboot
|
||||
table under `qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt`; guest memory snapshots via
|
||||
the QEMU monitor confirm red → yellow → green → blue in 2s steps and
|
||||
blue held forever. All 4 checks pass (`qemu_test.py`).
|
||||
- Packed payload verified with `futility vbutil_kernel --verify`
|
||||
(body verification succeeded, devkeys).
|
||||
|
||||
## Firmware state confirmed on this unit
|
||||
|
||||
- `dev_boot_usb = 1` — read directly from the device's VBNV flash region
|
||||
(RW_NVRAM @ 0x80000 in the 8 MB SPI, latest 16-byte vbnv blob at
|
||||
0x81bb0; CRC8-vbnv valid; `DEV_FLAGS_OFFSET` bit0 set, signed-only off).
|
||||
crossystem could not run because distro flashrom lacks the `host`
|
||||
programmer; `flashrom -p internal` works and the blob was decoded from
|
||||
the read-back image.
|
||||
- Boot chain evidence: p1 body is a FIT with 27 configs including
|
||||
`mt8183-kukui-krane-sku176`; depthcharge FIT config matching is by
|
||||
`compatible` from the config nodes, and our packed FIT's conf-1 carries
|
||||
that description (`mt8183-kukui-krane-sku176`) as its fdt subimage, so
|
||||
this unit's depthcharge (with kukui compat strings) selects it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Build & pack
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./build.sh # -> krane-fb-stub.bin (+ relocation/bss checks)
|
||||
sh build-payload.sh # -> krane-fb-stub-payload.bin (signed, verifiable)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Flashing (USB only — safety rules honored)
|
||||
|
||||
Nothing has been written to internal storage. The next step is to write
|
||||
`krane-fb-stub-payload.bin` to the **USB stick's** kernel partition
|
||||
(`/dev/sda1`, current pmOS kernel partition on the stick — back that up
|
||||
first), then boot the ChromeOS dev-mode menu → USB. The on-disk write step
|
||||
is deliberately left for explicit human confirmation, per the task's
|
||||
safety rules.
|
||||
|
||||
## Known limitations / notes
|
||||
|
||||
- The stub never returns; it spins on WFE holding blue (or halts unpainted
|
||||
on a parse failure).
|
||||
- No timer driver: delays use the architected generic timer registers
|
||||
(CNTFRQ/CNTPCT) — mandatory in the boot protocol anyway.
|
||||
- No cache maintenance is done for the framebuffer writes: we enter with
|
||||
the D-cache off, and writes to the (DMA'd) display controller read
|
||||
physical memory; on this platform the splash buffer is already coherent.
|
||||
- The `0x380`/`0xffed9000` constants from the prompt are used ONLY in the
|
||||
host tests as expected values, never in the stub logic.

# Task: Build and test a minimal ARM64 "hello framebuffer" stub for a Lenovo IdeaPad Duet (MT8183 / Krane)
|
||||
|
||||
## Goal
|
||||
|
||||
Produce the smallest possible standalone ARM64 binary that depthcharge (the
|
||||
ChromeOS firmware bootloader) can load as if it were a Linux kernel, which
|
||||
does nothing but locate the already-initialized boot-splash framebuffer and
|
||||
fill it with solid colors at distinct checkpoints. This validates the whole
|
||||
depthcharge → custom-payload pipeline before any real U-Boot bring-up work
|
||||
begins. **No U-Boot involved yet** — this is a from-scratch freestanding
|
||||
binary, as small and dependency-free as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
## Hardware / firmware facts already confirmed on this exact device — do not re-derive these
|
||||
|
||||
- Device: Lenovo IdeaPad Duet Chromebook. SoC: MediaTek MT8183.
|
||||
Board: Google "krane", specifically **krane sku176**.
|
||||
- Confirmed from the live devicetree `/firmware/coreboot` node on this exact
|
||||
unit (dumped via `dtc -I dtb -O dts` on `/sys/firmware/fdt` under the
|
||||
currently-running kernel):
|
||||
```
|
||||
firmware {
|
||||
ranges;
|
||||
coreboot {
|
||||
ram-code = <0x06>;
|
||||
sku-id = <0xb0>; /* = 176 decimal, confirms sku176 */
|
||||
board-id = <0x06>;
|
||||
reg = <0x00 0xffed9000 0x00 0x380 0x00 0xffed9000 0x00 0x127000>;
|
||||
compatible = "coreboot";
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
With `#address-cells = 2, #size-cells = 2`, this `reg` decodes as two
|
||||
(address, size) pairs:
|
||||
- **coreboot table (LBIO)**: address `0xffed9000`, size `0x380` (896 bytes)
|
||||
- **CBMEM area**: address `0xffed9000`, size `0x127000` (~1.15 MB)
|
||||
- Firmware boot chain on this device: Boot ROM → coreboot → TF-A BL31 →
|
||||
depthcharge → "kernel" (whatever is packed into the ChromeOS kernel
|
||||
partition). Reference: https://trustedfirmware-a.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plat/mt8183.html
|
||||
- Partition layout on `/dev/mmcblk0`:
|
||||
- `p1` = type "ChromeOS kernel" (GUID `FE3A2A5D-4F32-41A7-B725-ACCC3285A309`),
|
||||
small. This is what depthcharge actually boots — verified via
|
||||
`futility vbutil_kernel --verify /dev/mmcblk0p1 --verbose`.
|
||||
- `p2` = ext4, mounted `/boot` in the Ubuntu rootfs — **not read by firmware
|
||||
at boot time**, just staging space.
|
||||
- `p3` = ext4, Ubuntu root filesystem.
|
||||
- The device currently shows the ChromeOS dev-mode boot menu (USB/internal
|
||||
boot choice) before handoff, confirming coreboot's `panel_krane.c`
|
||||
(https://github.com/coreboot/coreboot/blob/main/src/mainboard/google/kukui/panel_krane.c)
|
||||
has already brought up the MIPI-DSI panel and a linear framebuffer is live
|
||||
and DMA'd by the time any payload we supply would run.
|
||||
- `dev_boot_usb` should be confirmed as `1` (`crossystem dev_boot_usb`) before
|
||||
any USB-boot testing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Coreboot table format — verify against source before trusting field order
|
||||
|
||||
Reference header: `src/commonlib/include/commonlib/coreboot_tables.h` in
|
||||
https://github.com/coreboot/coreboot (clone this repo locally and grep it —
|
||||
do not trust field order from this prompt without checking).
|
||||
|
||||
Known so far:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
struct lb_header {
|
||||
uint8_t signature[4]; /* "LBIO" */
|
||||
uint32_t header_bytes;
|
||||
uint32_t header_checksum;
|
||||
uint32_t table_bytes;
|
||||
uint32_t table_checksum;
|
||||
uint32_t table_entries;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
struct lb_record {
|
||||
uint32_t tag;
|
||||
uint32_t size;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
#define LB_TAG_FRAMEBUFFER 0x12
|
||||
|
||||
struct lb_framebuffer {
|
||||
uint32_t tag;
|
||||
uint32_t size;
|
||||
uint64_t physical_address; /* verify: coreboot uses lb_uint64_t, a
|
||||
32-bit-aligned split hi/lo struct on
|
||||
some versions — confirm packing */
|
||||
uint32_t x_resolution;
|
||||
uint32_t y_resolution;
|
||||
uint32_t bytes_per_line;
|
||||
uint8_t bits_per_pixel;
|
||||
uint8_t red_mask_pos;
|
||||
uint8_t red_mask_size;
|
||||
uint8_t green_mask_pos;
|
||||
uint8_t green_mask_size;
|
||||
uint8_t blue_mask_pos;
|
||||
uint8_t blue_mask_size;
|
||||
uint8_t reserved_mask_pos;
|
||||
uint8_t reserved_mask_size;
|
||||
uint8_t orientation;
|
||||
/* struct lb_framebuffer_flags flags; possible trailing padding —
|
||||
confirm exact struct size against sizeof() in the real header */
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Action required**: before writing the parser, confirm (a) whether
|
||||
`physical_address` is a plain `uint64_t` or coreboot's split `lb_uint64_t`
|
||||
(hi/lo 32-bit halves) in the version you clone, and (b) the exact total
|
||||
struct size/padding, by reading the header directly and/or writing a tiny
|
||||
host-side C program that does `printf("%zu\n", sizeof(struct lb_framebuffer))`
|
||||
against the real, included header.
|
||||
|
||||
## What the stub must do
|
||||
|
||||
1. Entry point conforms to the **arm64 Linux kernel boot protocol** (this is
|
||||
what depthcharge expects to jump into): entered with MMU and D-cache off,
|
||||
`x0` = physical address of a DTB blob, `x1`–`x3` = 0. The binary itself
|
||||
must also carry a valid **arm64 "Image" header** (magic `ARM\x64` at byte
|
||||
offset 0x38, `code0`/`code1` branch-past-header instructions, `text_offset`,
|
||||
`image_size`, etc.) — confirm the exact header layout against the Linux
|
||||
kernel's `Documentation/arch/arm64/booting.rst` (or
|
||||
`arch/arm64/kernel/head.S`) in a cloned `torvalds/linux` tree, since
|
||||
depthcharge's loader is written to accept real Linux Image binaries and
|
||||
the packing step below (`mkdepthcharge`) will otherwise choke or
|
||||
misinterpret the payload.
|
||||
2. Parse the DTB at `x0` (a small/partial hand-rolled parser is fine — you
|
||||
only need to find one node — but using `libfdt` if it's easy to statically
|
||||
link in a freestanding way is also acceptable) to locate `/firmware/coreboot`
|
||||
and extract the first `reg` pair (LBIO table address + size). Do **not**
|
||||
hardcode `0xffed9000`/`0x380` in the shipped stub logic — read them from
|
||||
the DTB at runtime, since this is the general mechanism; the constants
|
||||
above are only for your own manual verification/testing during
|
||||
development.
|
||||
3. Verify the `"LBIO"` signature at that address, walk `lb_record` entries
|
||||
using `header_bytes`/`table_entries`, find the one with
|
||||
`tag == LB_TAG_FRAMEBUFFER (0x12)`.
|
||||
4. Using `physical_address`, `x_resolution`, `y_resolution`, `bytes_per_line`,
|
||||
`bits_per_pixel`: fill the entire visible framebuffer with a single solid
|
||||
color, per the checkpoint sequence below, with a fixed delay (spin-loop is
|
||||
fine, no timer driver needed) between each so a human watching the screen
|
||||
can see each stage.
|
||||
|
||||
## Checkpoint color convention (in order, ~2 seconds each, hold last color forever)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Red** — stub entered and running (proves depthcharge jumped here
|
||||
correctly and code is executing).
|
||||
2. **Yellow** — DTB parsed, `/firmware/coreboot` node found.
|
||||
3. **Green** — LBIO signature verified, framebuffer record found.
|
||||
4. **Blue** — framebuffer fill of the *previous* checkpoint colors succeeded
|
||||
(i.e., blue only appears if red/yellow/green were each visibly, correctly
|
||||
drawn — this is your final "everything worked" signal).
|
||||
5. If any step fails, **halt on the last successful color** (infinite loop,
|
||||
do not proceed) rather than showing a "fail" color — the *stuck* color
|
||||
itself tells us which stage broke.
|
||||
|
||||
## Build and packaging
|
||||
|
||||
- Toolchain: `aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc` (freestanding: `-ffreestanding -nostdlib
|
||||
-static`, no libc), or hand-written assembly if simpler given the small
|
||||
scope.
|
||||
- Package with `mkdepthcharge` (from https://github.com/alpernebbi/depthcharge-tools,
|
||||
wraps `mkimage`/`vbutil_kernel`) targeting **arm64**, using the ChromeOS
|
||||
devkeys (`/usr/share/vboot/devkeys/kernel.keyblock` +
|
||||
`kernel_data_key.vbprivk`) already trusted by this device's firmware.
|
||||
Confirm against `mkdepthcharge --help` and its source whether a raw
|
||||
freestanding binary needs to be wrapped in a FIT/uImage first (via
|
||||
`mkimage`) or can be passed directly — do not assume.
|
||||
- **Do not pass a real DTB for depthcharge to hand to us for real** — we want
|
||||
depthcharge's own normal DTB selection behavior (it already knows how to
|
||||
pick/pass the correct krane DTB when booting a "kernel"), so build the FIT
|
||||
the same way `mkdepthcharge` would for a normal kernel+dtb pair, just with
|
||||
our stub binary in place of vmlinuz and no initramfs needed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Safety rules — non-negotiable
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Never write the packed image directly to `/dev/mmcblk0p1`.** Every test
|
||||
cycle targets a **USB stick** first (`dev_boot_usb=1` must be set; boot via
|
||||
the ChromeOS dev-mode menu's USB option). Only after a stub has been
|
||||
confirmed working from USB — visually, by a human watching the screen —
|
||||
should writing to internal storage even be discussed, and that should be a
|
||||
separate, explicitly-confirmed step, not something done automatically as
|
||||
part of a build/test loop.
|
||||
2. Keep the current, known-working pmOS kernel image backed up on the USB
|
||||
stick itself (not only on the internal eMMC), so recovery never depends on
|
||||
anything that might get overwritten.
|
||||
3. If a build step, packing step, or the arm64 Image header requirements are
|
||||
ambiguous or contradicted by what you find in source, **stop and report
|
||||
the ambiguity** rather than guessing and flashing — getting the on-disk
|
||||
format wrong here produces a hang with zero diagnostic output, which is
|
||||
the one failure mode this whole exercise exists to avoid.
|
||||
4. Treat every numeric fact in this prompt (struct layouts, offsets, table
|
||||
address) as "reported, needs verification against source," not as
|
||||
ground truth — cross-check each against the actual cloned coreboot/Linux
|
||||
trees before relying on it in code.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deliverables
|
||||
|
||||
1. Stub source (assembly + minimal C, or pure assembly), with comments
|
||||
explaining each stage against the checkpoint list above.
|
||||
2. Build script producing the raw binary.
|
||||
3. Packing command(s) producing a bootable USB disk image.
|
||||
4. A short README noting which of the "verify against source" items above
|
||||
were checked, what was found, and any deviations from this prompt's
|
||||
assumptions.

0x45000000, written into guest RAM by a qemu loader device.

- The LBIO table describes a 64x16 xrgb framebuffer at 0x45200000.
