[efi] Add EFI image format and basic runtime environment
We have EFI APIs for CPU I/O, PCI I/O, timers, console I/O, user
access and user memory allocation.
EFI executables are created using the vanilla GNU toolchain, with the
EXE header handcrafted in assembly and relocations generated by a
custom efilink utility.
The userptr_t is now the fundamental type that gets used for conversions.
For example, virt_to_phys() is implemented in terms of virt_to_user() and
user_to_phys().
[i386] Simplify linker script and standardise linker-defined symbol names
Reduce the number of sections within the linker script to match the
number of practical sections within the output file.
Define _section, _msection, _esection, _section_filesz, _section_memsz,
and _section_lma for each section, replacing the mixture of symbols that
previously existed.
In particular, replace _text and _end with _textdata and _etextdata, to
make it explicit within code that uses these symbols that the .text and
.data sections are always treated as a single contiguous block.
[makefile] Add support for multiple build platforms
Allow for the build CPU architecture and platform to be specified as part
of the make command goals. For example:
make bin/rtl8139.rom # Standard i386 PC-BIOS build
make bin-efi/rtl8139.efi # i386 EFI build
The generic syntax is "bin[-[arch-]platform]", with the default
architecture being "i386" (regardless of the host architecture) and the
default platform being "pcbios".
Non-path targets such as "srcs" can be specified using e.g.
make bin-efi srcs
Note that this changeset is merely Makefile restructuring to allow the
build architecture and platform to be determined by the make command
goals, and to export these to compiled code via the ARCH and PLATFORM
defines. It doesn't actually introduce any new build platforms.
[pcbios] Allow for larger-than-20-byte buffers in e820mangler.S
Although the E820 API allows for a caller to provide only a 20-byte
buffer, there exists at least one combination (HP BIOS, 32-bit WinPE)
that relies on information found only in the "extended attributes"
field, which requires a 24-byte buffer.
Allow for up to a 64-byte E820 buffer, in the hope of coping with
future idiocies like this one.
[pcbios] Print INT 15,E820 extended attributes, if present
The ACPI specification defines an additional 4-byte field at offset 20
for an E820 memory map entry. This field is presumably optional,
since generally E820 gets given only a 20-byte buffer to fill.
However, the bits of this optional field are defined as:
bit 0 : region is enabled
bit 1 : region is non-volatile memory rather than RAM
so it seems as though callers that pass in only a 20-byte buffer may
be missing out on some rather important information.
Our INT 15,e820 code was setting %es=%ss (as part of the "look ahead
in the memory map" logic), but failing to restore %es afterwards.
This is a serious bug, but wasn't affecting many platforms because
almost all callers seem to set %es=%ss anyway.
[pcbios] Fetch INT 15,e820 entry directly into our e820 cache
Some BIOSes require us to pass in not only the continuation value (in
%ebx) as returned by the previous call to INT 15,e820 but also the
unmodified buffer (at %es:%di) as returned by the previous call to INT
15,e820. Apparently, someone thought it would be a worthwhile
optimisation to fill in only the low dword of the "length" field and
the low byte of the "type field", assuming that the buffer would
remain unaltered from the previous call.
This problem was being triggered by the "peek ahead" logic in
get_mangled_e820(), which would read the next entry into a temporary
buffer in order to be able to guarantee terminating the map with
%ebx=0 rather than CF=1. (Terminating with CF=1 upsets some Windows
flavours, despite being documented legal behaviour.)
Work around this problem by always fetching directly into our e820
cache; that way we can guarantee that the underlying call always sees
the previous buffer contents (and the same buffer address).
[pcbios] Add facility for testing arbitrary E820 memory maps
We seem to be having issues with various E820 memory maps. These
problems are often difficult to reproduce, requiring access to the
specific system exhibiting the problem.
Add a facility for hooking in a fake E820 map generator, using an
arbitrary map defined in a C array, solely in order to be able to test
the map-mangling code against arbitrary E820 maps.
[romprefix] Allow BANNER_TIMEOUT to control banners in romprefix.S
In particular, allow BANNER_TIMEOUT=0 to inhibit the prompt banners
altogether.
Ironically, this request comes from the same OEM that originally
required the prompts to be present during POST.
[pcbios] Inhibit INT 15 memory map hiding on brain-dead BIOSes
Some really moronic BIOSes bring up the PXE stack via the UNDI loader
entry point during POST, and then don't bother to unload it before
overwriting the code and data segments. If this happens, we really
don't want to leave INT 15 hooked, because that will cause any loaded
OS to die horribly as soon as it attempts to fetch the system memory
map.
We use a heuristic to detect whether or not we are being loaded at the
top of free base memory. If we determine that we are being loaded at
some other arbitrary location in base memory, then we assume that it's
not safe to hook INT 15.
[romprefix] If we hook INT 19, prompt before attempting boot
On non-BBS systems we hook INT 19, since there is no other way we can
guarantee gaining control of the flow of execution. If we end up
doing this, prompt the user before attempting boot, since forcibly
capturing INT 19 is rather antisocial.
[relocate] Guard against systems that report empty memory regions
If the INT 15,e820 memory map reports a region [0,0), this confuses
the "truncate to even megabytes" logic, which ends up rounding the
region 'down' to [0,fff00000).
Fix by ensuring that the region's end address is at least 1, before we
subtract 1 to obtain the "last byte in region" address.
INT 15,e801 is capable of returning a memory range that extends to
4GB, so allow for this in the debug message that shows the data
returned by INT 15,e801.
[undi] Scan for UNDI ROMs on 512-byte boundaries rather than 2kB boundaries
Apparently some BIOSes will place option ROMs on 512-byte boundaries.
While this is against specification, it doesn't actually hurt
anything, so we may as well increase our scan granularity to 512
bytes.

[pxe] Add a dummy PXENV+ entry point at UNDI_CS:0000
Wyse Streaming Manager server (WLDRM13.BIN) assumes that the PXENV+
entry point is at UNDI_CS:0000; apparently, somebody at Wyse has
difficulty distinguishing between the words "may" and "must"...
Add a dummy entry point at UNDI_CS:0000, which just jumps to the
correct entry point.
[multiboot] Allow for unspecified {load,bss}_end_addr for raw images
The multiboot specification states that, for raw images, if
load_end_addr is zero then it should be interpreted as meaning "use
the entire file", and if bss_end_addr is zero it should be interpreted
as meaning "no bss".
[libprefix] Add addr32 prefix required by older assemblers
Explicitly state that we are using 32-bit addressing in 16-bit code.
GNU as 2.15 (FreeBSD/amd64 7-STABLE) got confused that 32-bit registers
are used in the code that was declared as 16-bit. Add explicit modifier
'addr32' to make assembler happy.
Signed-off-by: Eygene Ryabinkin <rea-fbsd@codelabs.ru>
IBM's iSCSI Firmware Initiator checks the UNDIROMID pointer in the
!PXE structure that gets created by the UNDI loader. We didn't
previously fill this value in.
[romprefix] Add more diagnostic messages to ROM prefix
Include PMM allocation result in POST banner.
Include full product string in "starting execution" message.
Also mark ourselves as supporting DDIM in PnP header, for
completeness.
[romprefix] On a PCI3.0, non-BBS system, use the correct %cs for INT19
On a system that doesn't support BBS, we end up hooking INT19 to gain
control of the boot process. If the system is PCI3.0, we must take
care to use the runtime value for %cs, rather than the POST-time
value, otherwise we end up pointing INT19 to the temporary option ROM
POST scratch area.
[pcbios] Support arbitrary splits of the e820 memory map
Allow for an arbitrary number of splits of the system memory map via
INT 15,e820.
Features of the new map-mangling algorithm include:
Supports random access to e820 map entries.
Requires only sequential access support from the underlying e820
map, even if our caller uses random access.
Empty regions will always be stripped.
Always terminates with %ebx=0, even if the underlying map terminates
with CF=1.
Allows for an arbitrary number of hidden regions, with underlying
regions split into as many subregions as necessary.
Total size increase to achieve this is 193 bytes.
[pcbios] Prepare for multiple splits of hidden e820 memory regions
Define a list of N allowed memory regions, and split each underlying
e820 region into up to N subregions. Strip resulting empty regions
out of the map, avoiding using the "return with CF set to strip last
empty region" trick, because it seems that bootmgr.exe in Win2k8 gets
upset if the memory map is terminated with CF set.
This is an intermediate checkin that defines a single allowed memory
region covering the entire 64-bit address space, and uses the existing
map-mangling code on top of the new region-splitting code. This
sanitises the memory map to the point that Win2k8 is able to boot even
on a system that defines a final zero-length region at the 4GB mark.
I'm checking this in because it may be useful for future debugging
efforts to be able to run with the existing and known-working map
mangling code together with the map sanitisation capabilities of the
new map mangling code.
