disabled by -D) from the output of newvers_stand.sh. Change -D to the
inverted logic, so that it adds the date to bootprog_rev in ().
Change all platforms accordingly. -D is added if MKREPRO is not yes and
wasn't present before. Platforms that didn't use -D don't depend on
MKREPRO now either.
on the 7043-150. The B50 wants not only a note at the head of the
binary, like the 7044 did, but it also wants a PHDR that points at it.
Because the IBM firmware doesn't like the real note section that ld
generates (it puts it at the end of the file), we instead point PT_NOTE
at the text section. This works, because at the top of the text section,
there is a note hacked in, which was required for the 7044.
Also, change the mode from virtual mode to real mode in the note, because
the B50 hangs if you load it in virtual. Tested to work on a B50, 7044,
and Pegasos2.
Yay IBM.
program that dumps the entire ofw device tree automatically. I needed
this functionality to collect ofw dumps from users, and it doesn't hurt
to just commit it, as it's all protected inside a #ifdef OFWDUMP.
where the bootloader would freak out if various printfs were enabled or
disabled.
Add code to autodetect a 64bit cpu, and attempt to load a different set
of kernels if they exist.
Bump version to 1.9
This branch was a major cleanup and rototill of many of the various OEA
cpu based PPC ports that focused on sharing as much code as possible
between the various ports to eliminate near-identical copies of files in
every tree. Additionally there is a new PIC system that unifies the
interface to interrupt code for all different OEA ppc arches. The work
for this branch was done by a variety of people, too long to list here.
TODO:
bebox still needs work to complete the transition to -renovation.
ofppc still needs a bunch of work, which I will be looking at.
ev64260 still needs to be renovated
amigappc was not attempted.
NOTES:
pmppc was removed as an arch, and moved to a evbppc target.
<sys/bootblock.h>:
* Added definitions for the Master Boot Record (MBR) used by
a variety of systems (primarily i386), including the format
of the BIOS Parameter Block (BPB).
This information was cribbed from a variety of sources
including <sys/disklabel_mbr.h> which this is a superset of.
As part of this, some data structure elements and #defines
were renamed to be more "namespace friendly" and consistent
with other bootblocks and MBR documentation.
Update all uses of the old names to the new names.
<sys/disklabel_mbr.h>:
* Deprecated in favor of <sys/bootblock.h> (the latter is more
"host tool" friendly).
amd64 & i386:
* Renamed /usr/mdec/bootxx_dosfs to /usr/mdec/bootxx_msdos, to
be consistent with the naming convention of the msdosfs tools.
* Removed /usr/mdec/bootxx_ufs, as it's equivalent to bootxx_ffsv1
and it's confusing to have two functionally equivalent bootblocks,
especially given that "ufs" has multiple meanings (it could be
a synonym for "ffs", or the group of ffs/lfs/ext2fs file systems).
* Rework pbr.S (the first sector of bootxx_*):
+ Ensure that BPB (bytes 11..89) and the partition table
(bytes 446..509) do not contain code.
+ Add support for booting from FAT partitions if BOOT_FROM_FAT
is defined. (Only set for bootxx_msdos).
+ Remove "dummy" partition 3; if people want to installboot(8)
these to the start of the disk they can use fdisk(8) to
create a real MBR partition table...
+ Compile with TERSE_ERROR so it fits because of the above.
Whilst this is less user friendly, I feel it's important
to have a valid partition table and BPB in the MBR/PBR.
* Renamed /usr/mdec/biosboot to /usr/mdec/boot, to be consistent
with other platforms.
* Enable SUPPORT_DOSFS in /usr/mdec/boot (stage2), so that
we can boot off FAT partitions.
* Crank version of /usr/mdec/boot to 3.1, and fix some of the other
entries in the version file.
installboot(8) (i386):
* Read the existing MBR of the filesystem and retain the BIOS
Parameter Block (BPB) in bytes 11..89 and the MBR partition
table in bytes 446..509. (Previously installboot(8) would
trash those two sections of the MBR.)
mbrlabel(8):
* Use sys/lib/libkern/xlat_mbr_fstype.c instead of homegrown code
to map the MBR partition type to the NetBSD disklabel type.
Test built "make release" for i386, and new bootblocks verified to work
(even off FAT!).
. use the boot_entry_t type for the entry point
Makes ofwboot compile with -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes, as
suggested by Chuck Silvers in a private e-mail.
