* mboot.c: prefer ELF header over multiboot headersyslinux-3.73-pre6Ralf Ertzinger2008-10-201-63/+57
| | | | | | | | | | If a loaded kernel is in ELF format and contains a multiboot header indicating valid relocation information, prefer the informations from the ELF header. This is in violation of the Multiboot spec, but it's the way GRUB does things and Solaris kernels rely on this behaviour. Signed-of-by: Ralf Ertzinger <ralf@skytale.net> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* mboot.c32: add <stdint.h> and <stdbool.h>syslinux-3.73-pre5H. Peter Anvin2008-10-191-0/+2
| | | | | | We need <stdbool.h>; we might as well add <stdint.h> as well. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

| | | | | | Reorganize the mboot.c32 Solaris print messages slightly. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* mboot.c32: change DHCP_ACK_SIZE to 2048H. Peter Anvin2008-10-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | Change DHCP_ACK_SIZE to 2048 just to prevent some systems from doing stupid things. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* mboot.c32: add Solaris modeRalf Ertzinger2008-10-191-0/+43
| | | | | | | Add a "Solaris" mode to mboot.c32, which mimics a nonstandard extension to Multiboot used by Solaris' pxeboot program. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* MEMDISK: in safeint mode, don't bother testing for unchanged INT 15hsyslinux-3.73-pre4H. Peter Anvin2008-10-151-26/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | In safeint mode, don't bother testing for unchanged INT 15h. It points back at ourselves, anyway, and we end up doing, in the end, the same thing as the safeint stub would do. Furthermore, the test was broken for years, and so this is actually closer to what we originally tested. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

* com32: make _Exit just an ordinary symbolH. Peter Anvin2008-10-142-5/+8
| | | | | | | | Make _Exit just an ordinary symbol which aliases _exit. This avoids some versions of gcc complaining about the inline, which is rather unnecessary anyway. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* Older binutils wants parens around macrosDag Wieers2008-10-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | Older versions of gcc/binutils apparently really want parentheses around macro arguments. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

* SYSLINUX -> SyslinuxH. Peter Anvin2008-10-1411-92/+96
| | | | | | | | Adopt the moniker "The Syslinux Project", ordinary proper noun capitalization, to refer to the project as a whole. This leaves the all-caps SYSLINUX to refer to the FAT loader only. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

* MEMDISK: default to "safeint" modesyslinux-3.73-pre3H. Peter Anvin2008-10-143-18/+45
| | | | | | | | | | There is enough evidence that "safeint" is a decent compromise between The Right Thing[TM] and dealing with the reality of ultra-broken DOSen. Make it the default. Clean up some of the command-line parsing code and status printing. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
* meminfo: update to deal with ACPI 3 and other braindamageH. Peter Anvin2008-10-131-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | Add support for ACPI 3 and certain broken e820 implementations in the meminfo program. Some e820 implementations expect the buffer to remain the same between different invocations, despite the fact that there is absolutely no guarantee to that effect in the spec. Signed-off-by: H.

* e820: pre-initialize bufferH. Peter Anvin2008-10-133-0/+9
| | | | | | | | Pre-initialize the e820 buffer to all zero, except for the active bit; we have found that BIOSes will make assumptions about the pre-existing value of the buffer and this seems the most conservative value. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

* Support "extended attributes" for INT 15h, AX=E820hH. Peter Anvin2008-10-139-57/+107
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some blithering idiot thought it was a good idea to introduce "extended attributes" for INT 15h, AX=E820h, and in doing so, breaking compatibility with ALL E820 users out there. F*cking morons. Implement handling of extended attributes in: - e820 parsing in the core - e820 parsing in libcom32 - e820 parsing *and proxying* in memdisk The latter is the really painful one.

| | | | | | | | -Werror is great for development, but is really bad for production where one may encounter a number of different toolchains. This causes diagnostic warnings to get promoted to build failures. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
