load_linux: dynamically calculate the cmdline region

2013-07-25T21:39:57+00:00

Users are hitting issues where the offset calculated by,

    (0x9ff0 - cmdline_size) & ~15;

is not useable memory, e.g. it is SMT_RESERVED. Instead we should be
trying to find the highest lowmem address.

movebits: add an inline to test for SMT_FREE || SMT_TERMINAL

2013-07-18T00:12:34+00:00

Introduce a predicate inline to test for a valid terminal address.

movebits: Add SMT_TERMINAL - a last resort region type

2013-07-17T17:29:16+00:00

Some memory regions are usable, but only as a last resort just before we
hand over control to a kernel image. Add the necessary movebits
infrastructure to use these regions when all other options have been
exhausted.

movebits: Add syslinux_memmap_find()

2013-07-17T17:29:16+00:00

Refactor the code for finding a suitable location for kernel
protected-mode and real-mode data. It's complicated enough that it
deserves to be separated into its own function.

zonelist: rename syslinux_memmap_find()...

2013-07-17T17:10:42+00:00

to syslinux_memmap_find_type(), which more accurately reflects its
function and frees up the old name for another use.

com32: make syslinux_dump_*() pure debugging functions

2012-05-18T23:04:00+00:00

Make the syslinux_dump_*() functions pure debugging functions; that is
the way that they are used anyway, and this way they log to the same
place as dprintf.

Run Nindent on com32/include/syslinux/movebits.h

2009-05-29T22:10:22+00:00

Automatically reformat com32/include/syslinux/movebits.h using Nindent.

Do this for all files except HDT, gPXE and externally maintained
libraries (zlib, tinyjpeg, libpng).

shuffler: work around KVM problem with the new shuffler

2009-04-14T02:11:30+00:00

KVM uses V86 mode to simulate real mode.  This causes problems with
the new shuffler.  This changes the shuffler handover to be in
16-bit protected mode instead, and requires the stub to do the actual
entry to real mode.  For the KVM hack to work, all segments must have:

(seg.base & 0xfff0000f) == 0 && seg.limit == 0xffff

As a result, we have to make sure the real-mode entry stub is
paragraph-aligned, lest we violate the first criterion.

shuffler: make the new shuffler actually work

2009-03-31T23:31:18+00:00

Make the new shuffler actually work.  This includes changing
rllpack.inc to run in 32-bit mode (since simple_pm_call now switches
to 32-bit mode) and changing the new shuffler interface to move the
shuffle list before actually doing any work.
