Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The *cedit* command is used to load a configuration-editor description and allow
|
|
the user to interact with it.
|
|
|
|
It makes use of the expo subsystem.
|
|
|
|
The description is in the form of a devicetree file, as documented at
|
|
:ref:`expo_format`.
|
|
|
|
See :doc:`../../develop/cedit` for information about the configuration editor.
|
|
|
|
cedit load
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Loads a configuration-editor description from a file. It creates a new cedit
|
|
structure ready for use. Initially no settings are read, so default values are
|
|
used for each object.
|
|
|
|
cedit run
|
|
~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Runs the default configuration-editor event loop. This is very simple, just
|
|
accepting character input and moving through the objects under user control.
|
|
The implementation is at `cedit_run()`.
|
|
|
|
cedit write_fdt
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Writes the current user settings to a devicetree file. For each menu item the
|
|
selected ID and its text string are written.
|
|
|
|
cedit read_fdt
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Reads the user settings from a devicetree file and updates the cedit with those
|
|
settings.
|
|
|
|
cedit read_env
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Reads the settings from the environment variables. For each menu item `<name>`,
|
|
cedit looks for a variable called `c.<name>` with the ID of the selected menu
|
|
item.
|
|
|
|
The `-v` flag enables verbose mode, where each variable is printed after it is
|
|
read.
|
|
|
|
cedit write_env
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Writes the settings to environment variables. For each menu item the selected
|
|
ID and its text string are written, similar to:
|
|
|
|
setenv c.<name> <selected_id>
|
|
setenv c.<name>-str <selected_id's text string>
|
|
|
|
The `-v` flag enables verbose mode, where each variable is printed before it is
|
|
set.
|
|
|
|
cedit write_cmos
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Writes the settings to locations in the CMOS RAM. The locations used are
|
|
specified by the schema. See `expo_format_`.
|
|
|
|
The `-v` flag enables verbose mode, which shows which CMOS locations were
|
|
updated.
|
|
|
|
Normally the first RTC device is used to hold the data. You can specify a
|
|
different device by name using the `dev` parameter.
|
|
|
|
.. _cedit_cb_load:
|
|
|
|
cedit cb_load
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
This is supported only on x86 devices booted from coreboot. It creates a new
|
|
configuration editor which can be used to edit CMOS settings.
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
=> cedit load hostfs - fred.dtb
|
|
=> cedit run
|
|
=> cedit write_fdt hostfs - settings.dtb
|
|
|
|
That results in::
|
|
|
|
/ {
|
|
cedit-values {
|
|
cpu-speed = <0x00000006>;
|
|
cpu-speed-value = <0x00000003>;
|
|
cpu-speed-str = "2 GHz";
|
|
power-loss = <0x0000000a>;
|
|
power-loss-value = <0x00000000>;
|
|
power-loss-str = "Always Off";
|
|
};
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
=> cedit read_fdt hostfs - settings.dtb
|
|
|
|
This shows settings being stored in the environment::
|
|
|
|
=> cedit write_env -v
|
|
c.cpu-speed=11
|
|
c.cpu-speed-str=2.5 GHz
|
|
c.cpu-speed-value=3
|
|
c.power-loss=14
|
|
c.power-loss-str=Always Off
|
|
c.power-loss-value=0
|
|
c.machine-name=my-machine
|
|
c.cpu-speed=11
|
|
c.power-loss=14
|
|
c.machine-name=my-machine
|
|
=> print
|
|
...
|
|
c.cpu-speed=6
|
|
c.cpu-speed-str=2 GHz
|
|
c.power-loss=10
|
|
c.power-loss-str=Always Off
|
|
c.machine-name=my-machine
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
=> cedit read_env -v
|
|
c.cpu-speed=7
|
|
c.power-loss=12
|
|
|
|
This shows writing to CMOS RAM. Notice that the bytes at 80 and 84 change::
|
|
|
|
=> rtc read 80 8
|
|
00000080: 00 00 00 00 00 2f 2a 08 ...../*.
|
|
=> cedit write_cmos -v
|
|
Write 2 bytes from offset 80 to 84
|
|
=> rtc read 80 8
|
|
00000080: 01 00 00 00 08 2f 2a 08 ...../*.
|
|
=> cedit read_cmos -v
|
|
Read 2 bytes from offset 80 to 84
|
|
|
|
Here is an example with the device specified::
|
|
|
|
=> cedit write_cmos rtc@43
|
|
=>
|
|
|
|
This example shows editing coreboot CMOS-RAM settings. A script could be used
|
|
to automate this::

Check that the CMOS RAM checksum is correct, then create a configuration editor
|
|
and load the settings from CMOS RAM::
|
|
|
|
=> cbcmos check
|
|
=> cedit cb
|
|
=> cedit read_cmos
|
|
|
|
Now run the cedit. In this case the user selected 'save' so `cedit run` returns
|
|
success::
|
|
|
|
=> if cedit run; then cedit write_cmos -v; fi
|
|
Write 2 bytes from offset 30 to 38
|
|
=> echo $?
|
|
0
|
|
|
|
Update the checksum in CMOS RAM::
|
|
|
|
=> cbcmos check
|
|
Checksum 6100 error: calculated 7100
|
|
=> cbcmos update
|
|
Checksum 7100 written
|
|
=> cbcmos check
