* mboot: reimplement the Solaris DHCP hack, add compliant a.out modesyslinux-3.80-pre1H. Peter Anvin2009-04-265-6/+83
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Reimplement the Solaris DHCP information passing hack. Add a spec-compliant mode for the "a.out kludge". The spec is pretty clear that the bit should override the ELF header (after all, otherwise there wouldn't be any need for the bit), but Grub disagrees. We default to Grub-compliant mode, as Solaris seems to set the bit even though it's an ELF kernel, but add the option to enable spec-compliant mode, as apparently some versions of FreeBSD need it.

* | mboot: fix cmdline; a few more layout tweaksH. Peter Anvin2009-04-264-30/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix module command lines (it was overwriting the main kernel command line); a few minor layout tweaks. In particular, we require the section header to be page-aligned, but not the subsequent sections. With this, I can get Xen to boot. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* | mboot: skip --- marker; decompress all filesH. Peter Anvin2009-04-261-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When walking the argument list we need to skip --- markers. Grub, and the old mboot.c32, seem to transparently decompress all files, not just the main one, so do the same. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

| * ISOLINUX: set directory length correctlySteffen Winterfeldt2009-04-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Since searchdir() uses getfssec() to read the directory it needs to set file_bytesleft. Else it loops forever if you have a large directory (and/or rock ridge on).

| * | a20: advance A20Test by a large, prime numberH. Peter Anvin2009-04-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather than simply incrementing A20Test, advance it by a large prime number every time. The reason is to minimize false aliasing as quickly as possible. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
| * | a20: remove DO_WBINVD configurableH. Peter Anvin2009-04-213-43/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We haven't enabled DO_WBINVD for a very long time. A20 is implemented on the inside of the L1 cache for 486+ (and 386 didn't have WBINVD), so an I/O delay is the only thing we can rely on anyway. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>
| * | a20: inline io_delayH. Peter Anvin2009-04-211-4/+3

| * | a20: A20Test is now a dwordH. Peter Anvin2009-04-211-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A20Test is now a dword; this makes it less likely that we'll have a case of false aliasing resulting in the io_delay path being taken. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>
| * | a20: try to avoid io_delay if A20 is already enabledH. Peter Anvin2009-04-211-25/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have at least the possibility to avoid io_delay if A20 is already enabled. Thus, give it a try. Furthermore, when calling enable_a20, always try the zero-work case first, since we may have been enabled by a previous call. This should improve performance of the rm/pm ping-pong. Signed-off-by: H.

| * | bcopyxx: when going to 16-bit PM, might as well do it rightH. Peter Anvin2009-04-164-12/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When entering 16-bit PM after shuffle and boot, we might as well do so sanely. Specifically, set up the data segments so that they match the code segment, generating a 16-bit "tiny" model environment. This makes it a lot saner to bootstrap a proper PM environment from there if that is what the user intends. For the presumably more common case of RM entry, it won't do any harm, and it's only a handful of additional instructions. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>
