* mboxd: Introduce a new DEBUG log levelSuraj Jitindar Singh2017-05-041-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently there is no output on the console unless -v is specified on the command line which enables error output. A second -v will provide info output. We probably want error output irrespective of whether a -v was given on the command line because people generally want to know why their program stopped working. Make error output unconditional. A single -v will give minimal informational output which is a good level to see what the daemon is doing without barfing all over the console. A second -v will enable debug output which will print highly verbose information which will be useful for debugging. Probably don't enable this under normal circumstances.

* mboxd: Update mboxd to implement protocol V2 and add dbus supportSuraj Jitindar Singh2017-04-111-0/+278
Version 2 of the mbox protocol contains a few changes such as: - All sizes are in block size - Adds an erase command - Adds new response codes - Adds new BMC events - Open windows commands now take a size directive Update the mailbox daemon to support version 2 of the protocol which includes implementing all of the V2 functionality. Also entirely refactor the mboxd.c code to make it more modular improving readability and maintainability. At the same time improve the functionality by adding: - Multiple windows in the daemon (still only one active window) to cache flash contents - Implement a dbus interface to allow interaction with the daemon - Handle sigterm and sigint and terminate cleanly The previous implementation utilised the entire reserved memory region. Update the daemon so that on the command line the number of windows and the size of each which the reserved memory region will be split into can be specified. The reserved memory region is then divided between the windows, however there can still only be one "active" window at a time. The daemon uses these windows to cache the flash contents meaning the flash doesn't have to be copied when the host requests access assuming the daemon already has a copy. A dbus interface is added so that commands can be sent to the daemon to control it's operation from the bmc. These include suspending and resuming the daemon to synchronise flash access, telling the daemon to point the lpc mapping back to flash and telling the daemon when the flash has been modified out from under it.
