* [xen] Wait for and clear XenStore event before receiving dataMichael Brown2015-06-301-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Older, out-of-tree Xen kernel modules (such as those provided with SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 11) do not clear the leftover "event pending" bit when opening an event channel. Consequently, no event is ever delivered to indicate that there is information in the XenStore ring buffer, and the system hangs shortly after loading the xen-platform-pci kernel module. Work around this problem by always waiting for the XenStore event channel to be signalled, and clearing the event before processing the received data. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>

* [int13con] Add basic ability to log to a local disk via INT 13Michael Brown2015-05-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several popular public cloud providers do not provide any sensible mechanism for obtaining debug output from an OS which is failing to boot. For example, Amazon EC2 provides the "Get System Log" facility, which occasionally deigns to report a random subset of the characters emitted via the VM's serial port, but usually returns only a blank screen. (Amazingly, this is still superior to the debugging facilities provided by Azure.) Work around these shortcomings by adding a console type which sends output to a magically detected raw disk partition, and including such a partition within any iPXE .usb-format image. To use this facility: - build an iPXE .usb image with CONSOLE_INT13 enabled - boot the cloud VM from this image - after the boot fails, attach the VM's boot disk to a second VM - from this second VM, use "less -f -R /dev/sdb3" (or similar) to view the iPXE output.

* [malloc] Move valgrind headers out of arch/x86Michael Brown2015-03-032-4849/+0Star
| | | | | | | The valgrind headers are not x86-specific; they detect the CPU architecture and contain inline assembly for multiple architectures. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>

| | | | | | | | | | These files cannot be automatically relicensed by util/relicense.pl since they either contain unusual but trivial contributions (such as the addition of __nonnull function attributes), or contain lines dating back to the initial git revision (and so require manual knowledge of the code's origin).

* [timer] Rewrite the 8254 Programmable Interval Timer supportMichael Brown2015-02-171-0/+81
| | | | | | | | The 8254 timer code (used to implement udelay()) has an unknown provenance. Rewrite this code to avoid potential licensing uncertainty. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [libc] Reduce size of memset()Michael Brown2015-02-171-1/+127
| | | | | | | | | As with memcpy(), we can reduce the code size (by an average of 0.2%) by giving the compiler more visibility into what memset() is doing, and by avoiding the "rep" prefix on short fixed-length sequences of string operations. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [libc] Rewrite string functionsMichael Brown2015-02-171-18/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some of the C library string functions have an unknown provenance. Reimplement all such functions to avoid potential licensing uncertainty. Remove the inline-assembler versions of strlen(), memswap(), and strncmp(); these save a minimal amount of space (around 40 bytes in total) and are not performance-critical.

* [ioapi] Fail ioremap() when attempting to map a zero bus addressMichael Brown2014-07-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a 32-bit iPXE binary is running on a system which allocates PCI memory BARs above 4GB, our PCI subsystem will return the base address for any such BARs as zero (with a warning message if DEBUG=pci is enabled). Currently, ioremap() will happily map an address pointing to the start of physical memory, providing no sensible indication of failure. Fix by always returning NULL if we are asked to ioremap() a zero bus address. With a totally flat memory model (e.g. under EFI), this provides an accurate failure indication since no PCI peripheral will be mapped to the zero bus address. With the librm memory model, there is the possibility of a spurious NULL return from ioremap() if the bus address happens to be equal to virt_offset. Under the current virtual memory map, the NULL virtual address will always be the start of .textdata, and so this problem cannot occur; a NULL return from ioremap() will always be an accurate failure indication.

* [vesafb] Add VESA frame buffer consoleMichael Brown2013-11-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The VESA frame buffer console uses the VESA BIOS extensions (VBE) to enumerate video modes, selects an appropriate mode, and then hands off to the generic frame buffer code. The font is extracted from the VGA BIOS, avoiding the need to provide an external font file. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [settings] Expose CPUID instruction via settings mechanismMichael Brown2013-08-072-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow CPUID values to be read using the syntax ${cpuid/<register>.<function>} For example, ${cpuid/2.0x80000001} will give the value of %ecx after calling CPUID with %eax=0x80000001. Values for <register> are encoded as %eax=0, %ebx=1, %ecx=2, %edx=3. The numeric encoding is more sophisticated than described above, allowing for settings such as the CPU model (obtained by calling CPUID with %eax=0x80000002-0x80000004 inclusive and concatenating the values returned in %eax:%ebx:%ecx:%edx). See the source code for details. The "cpuvendor" and "cpumodel" settings provide easy access to these more complex CPUID settings. This functionality is intended to complement the "cpuid" command, which allows for testing individual CPUID feature bits. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>

* [crypto] Add big-integer library for RSA calculationsMichael Brown2012-03-141-0/+318
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | RSA requires modular exponentiation using arbitrarily large integers. Given the sizes of the modulus and exponent, all required calculations can be done without any further dynamic storage allocation. The x86 architecture allows for efficient large integer support via inline assembly using the instructions that take advantage of the carry flag (e.g. "adcl", "rcrl"). This implemention is approximately 80% smaller than the (more generic) AXTLS implementation. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>

* [x86_64] Add support for compilation as an x86_64 binaryMichael Brown2008-12-055-0/+551
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
