[build] Use unique entry symbols for each prefix

2011-02-23T21:12:56+00:00

Some binutils versions will drag in an object to satisfy the entry symbol; some won't. Try to cope with this exciting variety of behaviour by ensuring that all entry symbols are unique. Remove the explicit inclusion of the prefix object on the linker command line, since the entry symbol now provides all the information needed to identify the prefix. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown

[efi] Use elf2efi utility in place of efilink

2009-01-07T22:59:05+00:00

elf2efi converts a suitable ELF executable (containing relocation information, and with appropriate virtual addresses) into an EFI executable. It is less tightly coupled with the gPXE build process and, in particular, does not require the use of a hand-crafted PE image header in efiprefix.S. elf2efi correctly handles .bss sections, which significantly reduces the size of the gPXE EFI executable.

[x86_64] Add support for compilation as an x86_64 binary

2008-12-05T00:06:27+00:00

Currently the only supported platform for x86_64 is EFI. Building an EFI64 gPXE requires a version of gcc that supports __attribute__((ms_abi)). This currently means a development build of gcc; the feature should be present when gcc 4.4 is released. In the meantime; you can grab a suitable gcc tree from git://git.etherboot.org/scm/people/mcb30/gcc/.git
