efi: implement Linux kernel handover protocol support

2013-07-08T14:47:22+00:00

The handover protocol is the preferred method of booting kernels on EFI
because it allows workarounds for various firmware bugs to be contained
in one place and applied irrespective of the chosen bootloader. Use it
if available, but ensure that we fallback to the legacy boot method.

Also, update the linux_header structure with recent changes made in the
kernel source.

firmware: Add EFI linux boot support

2012-02-02T16:24:08+00:00

Add .boot_linux to 'struct firmware', we do quite a lot of things
differently for BIOS and EFI. For EFI we don't need the movelist code
because we have little control over the memory map, and so can't
guarantee we can place code/data at specific addresses.

com32: Move initramfs_size() into header file

2012-02-02T16:21:00+00:00

Both the EFI and BIOS firmwares need to calculate the size of
initramfs, so move this helper function into a common header file.

linux: Move linux_header definition to header

2012-02-02T16:21:00+00:00

We're gonna need to include the 'struct linux_header' definition in
both the BIOS .boot_linux implementation the EFI one so move the
definition into a central header file.

linux.c32: move handling of mem= and vga= into the library function

2009-04-30T01:39:06+00:00

Move the handling of mem= and vga= into syslinux_boot_linux(), so that
the user of that function doesn't need to worry about it.
