[build] Explicitly link efilink against -liberty

2008-11-19T19:24:48+00:00

On some systems, libbfd is supplied only as a static library; linking will fail unless -liberty is also specified.

[build] Fix building on FreeBSD

2008-10-17T17:24:04+00:00

FreeBSD requires the object format to be specified as elf_i386_fbsd, rather than elf_i386. Based on a patch from Eygene Ryabinkin

[efi] Add EFI image format and basic runtime environment

2008-10-13T09:24:14+00:00

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.

[makefile] Add -Wformat-nonliteral as an extra warning category

2008-10-10T17:41:24+00:00

-Wformat-nonliteral is not enabled by -Wall and needs to be explicitly specified. Modified the few files that use nonliteral format strings to work with this new setting in place. Inspired by a patch from Carl Karsten and an identical patch from Rorschach .

[makefile] Inhibit warnings if AUTO_DEPS or MEDIA_DEPS are empty lists

2008-10-10T02:42:56+00:00

[makefile] Add missing dependency on arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile to MAKEDEPS

2008-10-10T02:42:37+00:00

[makefile] Split config.h out into config/*.h and kill off mkconfig.pl

2008-10-08T01:17:32+00:00

[makefile] Add support for multiple build platforms

2008-10-08T01:17:25+00:00

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.

[makefile] Fix -fno-stack-protector test on older versions of gcc

2008-10-01T18:24:56+00:00

Some older versions of gcc don't complain about unknown compiler flags unless you ask them to actually compile; asking them to merely preprocess won't trigger the error. Fix the -fno-stack-protector test by making it attempt to compile an empty file, rather than preprocess an empty file.

[release] Update version to 0.9.5+ post release

2008-10-01T17:46:16+00:00
