We don't do anything with it yet, though, so the BIOS will probably ignore us since
we are supposed to poll for events.

device in the Open Firmware implementation of boot loader and
pass its path to the kernel, where it's opened and used for
getting/setting the real time. The expensive atomic_*64() on PPC
32-bit make things a bit more complicated. Moreover, missing
64 bit multiplication and division instructions won't really
allow system_time() to be anywhere near as fast as on x86. :-/

bus, and time base frequency) in the PPC boot loader, and propagate
them to the kernel via kernel_args.
* Now we use the correct time base frequency for timer calculations.
* Implemented PPC specific system info stuff. Added a few PPC CPU
types to <OS.h>.

According to the spec we need to set it before taking over the MMU,
but we can't call it before arch_mmu_init(), since we need the OF
to allocate the page table. So we do it after we have allocated
the new page table.
* Added PPC specific kernel_args: The virtual address ranges we want
to keep in the kernel. We fill that in with the translations we
find when initializing the MMU stuff. We remove the memory the
boot loader occupies from those. Besides the stack for the boot
loader only the OF stuff remains.
* arch_mmu_allocate() now starts to search at KERNEL_BASE for a free
virtual address when no particular address is requested. This saves
us further trouble in the kernel, since those allocations would
need to be remapped otherwise.

arch_mmu_allocate() to set the "cache inhibited" flag. One negative
effect was that for such memory the lwarx instruction (used by the
atomic_*() functions) does "... cause the system data storage error
handle to be invoked...", as the architecture specification puts it.

{HAIKU,HOST,TARGET}_KERNEL_PIC_{CC,LINK}FLAGS which define the
compiler/linker flags specifying the kind of position independence
the kernel shall have. For x86 we had and still have -fno-pic, but the
PPC kernel has -fPIE (position independent executable) now, as we
need to relocate it.
* The boot loader relocates the kernel now. Mostly copied the relocation
code from the kernel ELF loader. Almost completely rewrote the PPC
specific relocation code, though. It's more correct and more complete now
(some things are still missing though).
* Added boot platform awareness to the kernel. Moved the generic
Open Firmware code (openfirmware.c/h) from the boot loader to the kernel.
* The kernel PPC serial debug output is sent to the console for the time
being.
* The PPC boot loader counts the CPUs now and allocates the kernel stacks
(made OF device iteration a bit more flexible on the way -- the search
can be restricted to subtree). Furthermore we really enter the kernel...
(Yay! :-) ... and crash in the first dprintf() (in the atomic_set()
called by acquire_spinlock()). kprintf() works, though.

specifying whether only the exact supplied address is acceptable. If
false, the address is considered a hint only. It will be picked, if
available, otherwise a greater address is tried to be acquired, and
as last resort any address. This feature is only implemented for PPC.
It is needed since the preferred kernel text base address 0x80000000
might not be available (and actually isn't on my Mac mini).
* Fixed a bug in the PPC memory management code:
is_{virtual,physical}_allocated() were checking whether the given
range was completely contained by an existing range instead of
checking for intersection. As a consequence we could (and did) allocate
a range intersecting with already allocated ranges. The kernel segment
thus overwrote OF memory for instance.
* The ELF loader makes sure that it got both text and data segment of
the image to be loaded.
The PPC boot loader successfully loads kernel and modules now. Next
comes the hard part, I'm afraid.

platform_allocation_region(). Since the callback stuff doesn't seem to
work, the Open Firmware didn't ask us to allocate memory in turn, and
thus we didn't know about the range that had been mapped and reused it
later.

IP, and UDP, as well as a home brewn UDP based protocol, "remote disk",
which provides random access to a single remote file/device. The Open
Firmware flavored boot loader automatically initializes the net stack,
searches for a remote disk, and tries to boot from it, if the boot
device is a network device (e.g. when loading the boot loader via
TFTP).
This is quite nice for developing with a two-machine setup, since one
doesn't even need to install Haiku on the test machine anymore, but can
serve it directly from the development machine. When the networking
support in the kernel is working, this method could even be used to
fully boot, not just for loading kernel and initial modules.

of_call_method() which is actually an implementation of the
"call-method" client function.
* of_interpret() announced one less return value than actually needed.
Seemed to work anyway, though.

menu. The menu basically works, but has a couple of problems. The
harmless ones are graphical: we get cursor artifacts when the colors
are changed, and the item selection doesn't quite look as it should.
More serious is the lack of Home/End, Page Up/Down keys. All I read from
the console is a '\0' byte when such a key is pressed. The cursor keys
work fortunately. I mapped the functionality of Page Up/Down
additionally to the Left/Right cursor keys. So the menu should be usable
at least. I guess, I'll leave it in that state; Axel wants a graphical
menu anyway.

* Missing includes (like <stdlib.h> and <string.h>).
* Linking against $(TARGET_LIBSTDC++) instead of libstdc++.r4.so.
* Local variables shadowing parameters.
* Default parameters in function definitions (as opposed to function
declarations).
* All C++ stuff (nothrow, map, set, vector, min, max,...) must be imported
explicitly from the std:: namespace now.
* "new (sometype)[...]" must read "new sometype[...]", even if sometype is
something like "const char *".
* __FUNCTION__ is no longer a string literal (but a string expression), i.e.
'printf(__FUNCTION__ ": ...\n")' is invalid code.
* A type cast results in a non-lvalue. E.g. "(char *)buffer += bytes"
is an invalid expression.
* "friend class SomeClass" only works when SomeClass is known before.
Otherwise the an inner class with that name is considered as friend.
gcc 4 is much pickier about scopes.
* gcc 4 is generally stricter with respect to type conversions in C.

* there is now a "Disable Hyper-Threading" safemode in the boot loader
* the SMP & HT menu items are now added in smp.cpp - and are only added
if the system supports one of them.
* more cleanup to smp_apic.h
* removed cpuid() from the boot loader's support.S - instead, it will now
use the one from the kernel.
* added a very weak HT detection: if the MP config only listed one CPU,
and this CPU supports HT, we enable the other logic processor manually -
as this currently doesn't work, it's disabled, though.

BIOSDrive::ReadAt() now tries to read a specific block up to 3 times before
failing - after the second retry, it will also reset the disk system.
get_ext_drive_parameters() will now fail if the BIOS fills in the device_parameters

Renamed gCDFloppyBoot variable to gBootedFromImage (as network boot should look

The "kernel_args.boot_disk.cd" field is now maintained as well.

of that of its marked item.

like floppy or CD boot.
This allows it to reduce the number of scans needed to identify the boot
partition - when booted from a real floppy, this speeds up the boot
process by a magnitude.
Also, the loader now has a fall back in case there were no "boot" links
on the disk - the current boot floppy script doesn't create them.
With these changes, I was able to boot into a HD based Haiku installation
from a floppy disk. It's not yet enough to boot from CD (as the boot
device selection is a bit too simplistic right now), but it will eventually
come next. Testing is a lot slower here, though, as neither qemu nor
Bochs support multi-session CDs (at least I have no idea how to get them
to do this).

CHS access.
Changed the cylinder-to-regs conversion in BIOSDrive::ReadAt() (that one was actually
correct) to make it look similar to the conversion in the opposite direction in
get_drive_parameters().

freed, as that's currently good enough).

of zbeos - but since we don't have this mechanism in place yet, the maximum

boot considerably.
