- Support for remember our compile time environment
- Simple and always correct version of compute_ip_checksum
- Improve message strings in crt0.base
- Initial support for > 2G ram.
- Sizeram now returns a list of valid ranges of ram
- pci resource allocation now starts at 0xC0000000
- Update sizeram for every northbridge
- Misc cleanups.
- Motherboard identification in the linuxbios table.
- Better SMP startup code.
- Support for the tyan s2462, the supermicro p4dc6, the supermicro p4dc6+, and the beginnings of supermicro p4dpr support
- Remove of no longer needed USE_AMD_NDA option
- Workaround cmos tables overlapping the traditional bios data segment
- Fixes to the p4dc6 examples to be syntactically correct
- Fixes to NLBConfig to fix the previos syntax error ``option foo bar'' is invalid
- Update docmil_fil_inbuf to only be compiled when the appropriate options are set
- Updates NLBConfig.py to export the variables MAINBOARD && TARGET_DIR
as well as correct specify the generated files
- Fix bad heuristic in mkelfImage 1.11 where if I wasn't given a firmware
type I assumed PCBIOS.
- Use objcopy to strip off extra symbols and the .ramdisk section if unused
- Fix typo linuxBIOS -> LinuxBIOS
ELF notes especially an ELF checksum of the entire image. This finishes
my proof of concept implementation of all significant features with respect
to ELF booting. Now to do some native ports...
Highlights:
- elfboot.c Now can load images to the ram location where linuxBIOS is running
- Added the standalone directory for bootloaders built from the linuxBIOS source
Other things:
- Correctly maode fallback_boot.c conditional
- Added entry32.lds to do the math for segment descriptor table entries
- Merged ldscript.cacheram and ldscript.base
- Moved assembly code to the sections .rom.text and .rom.data
- Modified linuxBIOS so C code completely runs from RAM as the SiS630
case does
- Updated and commented example config files for the supermicro p4dc6
- Bumped the elfboot loader version to 1.0
- Removed extra carriage returns in dump_northbridge.inc (DOS->UNIX)
- General cleanups to the config of the supermicro p4dc6
