This is where we reach the crux of the matter - In the stock/shellball
firmware, extracting BOOT_STUB doesn't yield a file which cbfstool in
upstream coreboot or CrOS coreboot can decipher. Looking at the file in
hexedit it appears to be almost identical to a CBFS that is recognised,
but
that's it. I have managed to extract the SVGA binary from the CBFS in the
RW_LEGACY slot, and I've made an educated guess as to where the
system-agent
begins and ends in the unrecognised CBFS (section beginning "LARCHIVE
mrc.bin" or similar with the binary itself following, surrounded by FF's)
copying and pasting it to a file. I would like to know if I am correct in
my
assumptions about extracting that file manually and what size it should
be,
in bytes?


That's interesting. It is just a regular 'ol cbfs. The images that
shipped with your device is an 8MiB SPI. First 2MiB Duncan covered.
The next 5 have nothing to do w/ coreboot proper -- all the extra
vboot firmware bits. The last 1MiB is the cbfs.


Okay, well I extracted the attached file using:

eval `./fmap_decode bios.bin | grep BOOT_STUB`
dd if=c720.rom ibs=$((area_offset)) skip=1 | dd bs=$((area_size))
iflag=fullblock of=c720-coreboot.bin

and:

../coreboot/build/cbfstool c720-coreboot.bin print

produces:

c720-coreboot.bin:
1024 kB, bootblocksize 3144, romsize 8388608, offset 0x700000
alignment: 64 bytes

Name                           Offset     Type         Size

zippo.

It seems I don't have permission to see that, as a non-Googler.
