The actual implementation of the ELF loading methods have been put into
an ELFLoader template class that takes a single template parameter, which
is a structure containing all the necessary ELF typedefs. It's a bit
verbose, but I thought it was a neater solution than using a bunch of
standalone functions with a huge number of template parameters. There is
no change to code outside of elf.cpp, the ELF32/ELF64 differences are
handled internally.
* There is now 2 structures, preloaded_elf32_image and preloaded_elf64_image,
which both inherit from preloaded_image.
* For now I've just hardcoded in use of preloaded_elf32_image, but the
bootloader ELF code will shortly be converted to use templates which use
the appropriate structure. The kernel will be changed later when I add
ELF64 support to it.
* All kernel_args data is now compatible between 32-bit and 64-bit kernels.
In r33670 the svn:eol-style property was dropped, which took care of
locally converting the line endings to the user's native style.
While most files use Unix-style LF line endings, some files have
Windows-style CR LF line endings.
Assure that the following r37262 directories use Unix-style line endings:
src/system/boot/
src/system/boot/arch/
src/system/boot/arch/ppc/
src/system/boot/loader/
src/system/boot/loader/net/
src/system/boot/platform/
src/system/boot/platform/openfirmware/
src/system/boot/platform/openfirmware/arch/
src/system/boot/platform/openfirmware/arch/ppc/
src/system/kernel/
src/system/kernel/arch/

headers/private/kernel/boot/

This avoids patches containing irrelevant lines unintentionally converted.
No functional changes.

{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.
