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.
Split debug functions out into core/debug.c, so that they can be
automatically linked in on demand.
Corrected warnings in misc.c. strtoul() really should be
unsigned long strtoul ( const char *p, const char **endp, int base )
but such is not the ANSI standard.
Strip down i386 PCI configuration space I/O to the bare minimum. A
typical build will now include 880 bytes of PCI support code, compared to
2327 bytes in Etherboot 5.4.
(There is a slight cost of around 5 extra bytes per access to a
non-constant config space address; this should be an overall win.
Driver-specific accesses will usually be to constant addresses, for
which there is no additional cost.)
Restructured PCI subsystem to fit the new device model.
Generic PCI code now handles 64-bit BARs correctly when setting
"membase"; drivers should need to call pci_bar_start() only if they want
to use BARs other than the first memory or I/O BAR.
Split rarely-used PCI functions out into pciextra.c.
Core PCI code is now 662 bytes (down from 1308 bytes in Etherboot 5.4).
284 bytes of this saving comes from the pci/pciextra split.
Cosmetic changes to lots of drivers (e.g. vendor_id->vendor in order to
match the names used in Linux).
Tear out old heap code, replace with code that simply allocates memory
for use by malloc().
This breaks the image-loading code (which previously used the heap to
allocate the buffer for downloading the image), but that's not a major
concern since I'm going to tear out all the image formats within the next
couple of days anyway. Byebye, NBI! :)
Shaved around 100 bytes off vsprintf.o. It's now 50 bytes smaller than
the old implementation and provides much more conformant semantics,
including the ability to return the number of characters that would have
been printed to the string had the buffer been big enough. (iSCSI needs
this functionality).
At least cope with "%llx" by reading the correct-sized va_arg from the
stack, even if we don't yet print it out.
At some point, vsprintf() needs to be fixed up so that it can correctly
cope with limited-sized buffers (i.e. vsnprintf), long longs, and
standard format specifiers (e.g. "%04x"). We should also remove the
special types (MAC addresses and IP addresses). This would then enable
us to use gcc's ability to type-check printf format strings.
