Details

Summary

OpenSBI is a RISC-V bootloader and set of firmware libraries that
implement the RISC-V Supervisor Binary Interface (SBI) required for
supervisor targets, such as the FreeBSD kernel.

This port installs the OpenSBI libraries that can be used for
development of custom firmwares, as well as the firmware files for the
QEMU virt and SiFive U540 platforms.

Test Plan

Passes portlint.
Builds fine in poudriere.

I also tested this in Poudriere on 12 and HEAD.

Looks good to me!

Of course if it were me (with my decades-long aversion to repeating hardcoded strings) I would have done it as, e.g.:

QEMU_VIRT_PLATFORM=qemu/virt
[...]
${MAKE_CMD} -C ${WRKSRC} PLATFORM=${QEMU_VIRT_PLATFORM} I=${STAGEDIR}${DATADIR} \
[...]

Reduce hardcoded strings.

This might be too aggressive, but it can be folded more: https://gist.github.com/e48b2311f72d655b0f88c7c798e6e722

This might help adding more platforms in the future, but I'm fine with the original version.

Use lhwsu's simplification.

Feel free to commit this with my approval, just modify the += nit before committing.

I think it's good. As far as I can tell, all platforms will produce the same firmware files.

Just to note, the platforms I've included now are the ones that are currently relevant to running FreeBSD. I could include the others (andes/ae350, kendryte/k210, and ariane-fpga) if we think that's useful.

We can add them when them become relevant to FreeBSD, or, add them as default-off options.
