Right now the PVH option rom scans for the RSDP from 0xE0000 to
0xE1FFF. This is probobly a typo, it should scan from 0xE0000 to
0xFFFFF.
This is actually an issue on some QEMU versions/machines. For example,
when I run QEMU the RSDP is placed at 0xf5ad0 which will not be picked
up by the current implementation.
This bug still allows a Linux guest to boot (in most configurations) as
the kernel will just scan for the RSDP if one isn't provided.

The new pvh.bin option rom can be used with SeaBIOS to boot
uncompressed kernel using the x86/HVM direct boot ABI.
pvh.S contains the entry point of the option rom. It runs
in real mode, loads the e820 table querying the BIOS, and
then it switches to 32bit protected mode and jumps to the
pvh_load_kernel() written in pvh_main.c.
pvh_load_kernel() loads the cmdline and kernel entry_point
using fw_cfg, then it looks for RSDP, fills the
hvm_start_info required by x86/HVM ABI, and finally jumps
to the kernel entry_point.

The quiet-command make rule currently takes two arguments:
the command and arguments to run, and a string to print if
the V flag is not set (ie we are not being verbose).
By convention, the string printed is of the form
" NAME some args". Unfortunately to get nicely lined up
output all the strings have to agree about what column the
arguments should start in, which means that if we add a
new quiet-command usage which wants a slightly longer CMD
name then we either put up with misalignment or change
every quiet-command string.
Split the quiet-mode string into two, the "NAME" and
the "same args" part, and use printf(1) to format the
string automatically. This means we only need to change
one place if we want to support a longer maximum name.
In particular, we can now print 7-character names lined
up properly (they are needed for the OSX "SETTOOL" invocation).
Change all the uses of quiet-command to the new syntax.
(Any which are missed or inadvertently reintroduced
via later merges will result in slightly misformatted
quiet output rather than disaster.)
A few places in the pc-bios/ makefiles are updated to use
"BUILD", "SIGN" and "STRIP" rather than "Building",
"Signing" and "Stripping" for consistency and to keep them
below 7 characters. Module .mo links now print "LD" rather
than the nonstandard "LD -r".

Two fixes are needed. First, mingw does not have -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE,
hence --enable-debug disables optimization. This is not acceptable
for ROMs, which should override CFLAGS to force inclusion of -O2.
Second, PE stores global constructors and destructors using the
following linker script snippet:
___CTOR_LIST__ = .; __CTOR_LIST__ = . ;
LONG (-1);*(.ctors); *(.ctor); *(SORT(.ctors.*)); LONG (0);
___DTOR_LIST__ = .; __DTOR_LIST__ = . ;
LONG (-1); *(.dtors); *(.dtor); *(SORT(.dtors.*)); LONG (0);
The LONG directives cause the .img files to be 16 bytes too large;
the recently added check to signrom.py catches this. To fix this,
replace -T and -e options with a linker script.

Recent GCC compiles linuxboot_dma.c to 921 bytes, while CentOS 6 needs
1029 and clang needs 1527. Because the size of the ROM, rounded to the
next 512 bytes, must match, this causes the API to break between a <1K
ROM and one that is bigger.
We want to make the ROM 1.5 KB in size, but it's better to make clang
produce leaner ROMs, because currently it is worryingly close to the limit.
To fix this prevent clang's happy inlining (which -Os cannot prevent).
This only requires adding a noinline attribute.
Second, the patch makes sure that the ROM has enough padding to prevent
ABI breakage on different compilers. The size is now hardcoded in the file
that is passed to signrom.py, as was the case before commit 6f71b77
("scripts/signrom.py: Allow option ROM checksum script to write the size
header.", 2016-05-23); signrom.py however will still pad the input to
the requested size. This ensures that the padding goes beyond the
next multiple of 512 if necessary, and also avoids the need for
-fno-toplevel-reorder which clang doesn't support. signrom.py can then
error out if the requested size is too small for the actual size of the
compiled ROM.

Old kernels that used high memory only allowed the initrd to be in the
first 896MB of memory. If you load the initrd above, they complain
that "initrd extends beyond end of memory".
In order to fix this, while not breaking machines with small amounts
of memory fixed by cdebec5 (linuxboot: compute initrd loading address,
2014-10-06), we need to distinguish two cases. If pc.c placed the
initrd at end of memory, use the new algorithm based on the e801
memory map. If instead pc.c placed the initrd at the maximum address
specified by the bzImage, leave it there.
The only interesting part is that the low-memory info block is now
loaded very early, in real mode, and thus the 32-bit address has
to be converted into a real mode segment. The initrd address is
also patched in the info block before entering real mode, it is
simpler that way.
This fixes booting the RHEL4.8 32-bit installation image with 1GB
of RAM.

Even though hw/i386/pc.c tries to compute a valid loading address for the
initrd, close to the top of RAM, this does not take into account other

Luckily we can easily look at the memory map to find out how much memory is
used up there. This patch places the initrd in the first four gigabytes,
below the first hole (as returned by INT 15h, AX=e801h).
Without this patch:
[ 0.000000] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x07000000-0x07fdffff]
[ 0.000000] RAMDISK: [mem 0x0710a000-0x07fd7fff]
With this patch:
[ 0.000000] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x07000000-0x07fdffff]
[ 0.000000] RAMDISK: [mem 0x07112000-0x07fdffff]

When the BIOS returns ebx = 0, the current entry is still valid and

Fixing this meant that using bx as the entry index doesn't work any

anyway), so the whole loop had to change a bit and should be more
generic as a result (ebx can be an arbitrary continuation number now,

Commit dd4239d657 broke multiboot. It replaced the
instruction "rep insb (%dx), %es:(%edi)" by the binary output of
"addr32 rep insb (%dx), %es:(%di)".
Linuxboot calls the respective helper function in a code16 section. So the
original instruction was automatically translated to its "addr32" equivalent.
For multiboot, we're running in code32 so gcc didn't add the "addr32" which
breaks the instruction.
This patch splits that helper function in one which uses addr32 and one which
does not, so everyone's happy.
The good news is that nobody probably cared so far. The bundled multiboot.bin
