and a bunch of generic changes. - Started playing with automatic scanning memory for LinuxBIOS tables. - Converted the fill_inbuf drivers to stream drivers. This allows for pure data copying operations to be faster, and it allows skipping of unneeded data on platforms that support it. - Added a section .rodata.streams for the stream driver control structures. This is preparation for building a bootloader that shares source code with LinuxBIOS. - Added a driver command to NLBConfig.py for objects that should always be linked into LinuxBIOS if they are compiled at all. - Moved the boot_successful logic down into the guts of the bootloaders. - Modified the ip style checksum logic so it isn't specific to uniform boot headers... - Added a function ndelay that uses the RTC (this is i786 specific for now). - Added a function to delay in seconds for the braindead harddrive spinup logic. - Added a floppy stream driver. - Added a ide stream driver. - Broke out the ram initialization for the p4dc6 into multiple c files. - Stupidly adapted linuxbiosmain and do_inflate to the new stream interface. get_byte is now a slow function call so it might be able to use some optimization. - Updated the ELF bootloader to the new stream interface and adding a ELF header scanning function so we can boot off of harddrives and not smash their partition tables. - Removed some bogus unlook ahead code from inflate.c - Fixed a problem where we did not enable I/O resources on VGA compatible chips. This caused a trident card to lock up the system when it's memory mapped resources were enabled. - Correctly set up nested pci busses. Before this a pci bus behind a pci bus would not get enabled. - Config changes to the p4dc6 - Added more interrupt sources to the p4dc6 interrupt table - Converted all of the inbuf drivers to stream drivers. All have good conversions except the doc_millenium. |
