Hello Stefan,
Thank you for the tip, I'm currently looking into that. But I'm still
not sure how to specify the load address. My guess is that I should edit
the linking script properly to do it. By default it looks as follows
(memtest.lds):
OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf32-i386");
OUTPUT_ARCH(i386);
ENTRY(_start);
SECTIONS {
. = 0x10000;
_start = . ;
.data : {
*(.data)
}
}
And here is the output of 'readelf -a memtest' command:

There is no dynamic section in this file.
There are no relocations in this file.
The decoding of unwind sections for machine type Intel 80386 is not
currently supported.
No version information found in this file.
So, the entry point is at the offset of 0x10000. But I think I should
somehow change the 'VirtAddr'. I've tried to edit the script in
different ways, for example, I've tried to add MEMORY command and then
allocate certain sections to the regions as explained here:
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/REGION_005fALIAS.html#REGION_005fALIAS
but haven't come to any success yet.
Are there any advices you could give me? Am I even looking in the right
direction?
Thanks in advance,
Viktor

Hello,
I'm trying to load Memtest86+ on the Mohon Peak reference board from
CBFS and it fails.
My primary payload is SeaBIOS. Memtest is added using cbfstool, so
the layout of my ROM file is as follows:
$ ./build/cbfstool build/coreboot.rom print
coreboot.rom: 8192 kB, bootblocksize 1024, romsize 8388608, offset 0x600000
alignment: 64 bytes, architecture: x86
Name Offset Type Size
cmos_layout.bin 0x600000 cmos_layout 1352
fallback/romstage 0x600580 stage 26616
fallback/ramstage 0x606dc0 stage 60446
fallback/payload 0x615a40 payload 55799
config 0x623480 raw 4323
revision 0x6245c0 raw 714
img/Memtest86+ 0x6248c0 payload 225028
(empty) 0x65b800 null 1001368
mrc.cache 0x74ffc0 (unknown) 65536
cpu_microcode_blob.bin 0x760000 microcode 83968
(empty) 0x774840 null 46936
fsp.bin 0x77ffc0 (unknown) 372736
(empty) 0x7db000 null 150424
I've tried versions 4.20 and 5.01. Memtest86+ v4.20 just hangs, here
is output of SeaBIOS trying to load it:
Trying CBFS
Booting from CBFS...
Run img/Memtest86+
Segment 41544144 194420@0xffe24920 -> 194420@0x00000000
No compression
And then nothing. Memtest86+ v5.01 goes a bit further, SeaBIOS finds
its entry point:
Trying CBFS
Booting from CBFS...
Run img/Memtest86+
Segment 41544144 224972@0xffe24920 -> 224972@0x00000000
No compression
Calling addr 0x00010000
It looks like in both cases memtest86+ is loaded at address 0x00000000
which will overwrite a bunch of memory, including the coreboot tables.
Looks like the memtest86+ elf binary needs to specify a load address.
