Change semantics; relocate() now just finds a suitable location; it
doesn't actually perform the relocation itself. Code in libprefix does
the copy in flat real mode.
Removed REAL_FRAGMENT and REAL_CALL, and left just REAL_EXEC (which is
the only one we actually use). This allows REAL_EXEC fragments to
contain proper references to constraints (e.g. "%w0"), rather than having
to force the use of specific registers.
Note that the "num_constraints" parameter is now completely obsolete, and
that we can probably reduce the syntax to something like
__asm__ __volatile__ ( REAL_CODE ( "asm statements" )
: output constraints
: input constraints
: clobber );
which would look much more natural, and avoid the need to always specify
a clobber list.
Add userptr_t to libkir.h, to allow it to at least compile.
We now split e820 regions around ourselves, rather than just
truncating the e820 region. This avoids the worst-case scenario of
losing all memory over 4GB.
It's more important to get the memory map right now that we're
expecting to still be loaded when the OS starts in several situations
(e.g. Linux with UNDI driver, any OS with iSCSI/AoE boot, etc.).
- implemented printw (formatted string output, a la printf)
- implemented hline/vline (part of wborder family)
- screen cursor now relocates at same time as window cursor when
restoring after a non-wrapping function
Refactored to reduce code size; now down from 1304 to 1105 bytes.
Tidied up debug messages; the log now contains one line per INT 13
operation, looking like
INT 13,08 (80): Get drive parameters
INT 13,02 (80): Read: C/H/S 0/47/14 = LBA 0xb9e <-> 1084:0000 (count 106)
- made some of the bit shifting attribute access simpler (in my mind)
- added extern declarations for global vars
- removed comments from static inlines (too time consuming to do them
all, considering all so far have been due to the ridiculous amount of
redundancy within the API spec)
- removed a few more extern func decls for funcs that cannot be
implemented at this time
Add the concept of a "user pointer" (similar to the void __user * in
the kernel), which encapsulates the information needed to refer to an
external buffer. Under normal operation, this can just be a void *
equivalent, but under -DKEEP_IT_REAL it would be a segoff_t equivalent.
Use this concept to avoid the need for bounce buffers in int13.c,
which reduces memory usage and opens up the possibility of using
multi-sector reads.
Extend the block-device API and the SCSI block device implementation
to support multi-sector reads.
Update iscsi.c to use user buffers.
Move the obsolete portions of realmode.h to old_realmode.h.
MS-DOS now boots an order of magnitude faster over iSCSI (~10 seconds
from power-up to C:> prompt in bochs).
iSCSI writes seem to be working (at least, the ethereal trace shows no
errors; still need to verify data integrity).
SCSI response PDUs are handled: status and sense data (if available) are
returned via the scsi_command structure.
Updated iSCSI session parameter usage.
