thorpej d5df55112a vm_offset_t -> {paddr_t,vaddr_t}, vm_size_t -> vsize_t 1998-08-14 16:50:00 +00:00
drochner dabc8eb436 Implement the 'i' flag which makes the bootloader ask for the file to
load (as in OSF/1).
Useful for netboot where "-file" doesn't work as needed.

ross de27f1befc Don't bother reading the ELF string table out of a stripped /netbsd[.gz].
In this case, all it has in it are the never-referenced printable names
for the ELF sections themselves. It's located at the end of the (ramdisk)
netbsd.gz file, so it is a very expensive seek and read for only 85 bytes.

Boot floppy load time:

	before:	5 minutes
	now:	3 minutes

cgd c0ac8bae67 GC alpha's ECOFF_TOOLCHAIN make variable, and related bits. Nobody
should be using an ECOFF toolchain on NetBSD/alpha any more.

cgd 92d17b5b50 clean up the way bootinfo information is passed and used: move the version
number passed by the boot block into a register, change the kernel's
bootinfo handing so that it always uses bootinfo to get bootinfo-ish values
(filling them in if the boot blocks didn't pass them), and make versioning
a small bit more sane.

ross 43a3471986 While here in alpha/stand, add a technically required imb coherency op
just before transferring to the kernel entry point.

ross c1972a428c Avoid VMS palcode ops by using a different technique for cpu_number(),
and don't execute the VMS->OSF palcode switch if the OSF palcode
is already running...which will be the case if the console is not
the venerable SRM.

cgd 21ad990583 reorganize Alpha boot block sources: put common sources in a 'common'
directory (so they don't clutter up the arch/alpha/stand), and put
not-common sources in programs' directories.
