* [build] Mark core files as permitted for UEFI Secure BootMichael Brown2026-01-145-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | Mark all files used in a standard build of bin-x86_64-efi/snponly.efi as permitted for UEFI Secure Boot. These files represent the core functionality of iPXE that is guaranteed to have been included in every binary that was previously subject to a security review and signed by Microsoft. It is therefore legitimate to assume that at least these files have already been reviewed to the required standard multiple times. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [profile] Standardise return type of profile_timestamp()Michael Brown2024-09-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All consumers of profile_timestamp() currently treat the value as an unsigned long. Only the elapsed number of ticks is ever relevant: the absolute value of the timestamp is not used. Profiling is used to measure short durations that are generally fewer than a million CPU cycles, for which an unsigned long is easily large enough. Standardise the return type of profile_timestamp() as unsigned long across all CPU architectures. This allows 32-bit architectures such as i386 and riscv32 to omit all logic associated with retrieving the upper 32 bits of the 64-bit hardware counter, which simplifies the code and allows riscv32 and riscv64 to share the same implementation.

* [libc] Centralise architecture-independent portions of setjmp.hMichael Brown2024-09-121-0/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | The definitions of the setjmp() and longjmp() functions are common to all architectures, with only the definition of the jump buffer structure being architecture-specific. Move the architecture-specific portions to bits/setjmp.h and provide a common setjmp.h for the function definitions. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [gdb] Allow CPU architectures to omit support for GDBMichael Brown2024-09-051-0/+80
| | | | | | | | Move the <gdbmach.h> file to <bits/gdbmach.h>, and provide a common dummy implementation for all architectures that have not yet implemented support for GDB. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [build] Allow for per-architecture unprefixed constant operand modifierMichael Brown2023-02-061-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Over the years, the undocumented operand modifier used to produce the unprefixed constant values in __einfo_error() has varied from "%c0" to "%a0" in commit 1a77466 ("[build] Fix use of inline assembly on GCC 4.8 ARM64 builds") and back to "%c0" in commit 3fb3ffc ("[build] Fix use of inline assembly on GCC 8 ARM64 builds"), according to the evolving demands of the toolchain. LoongArch64 suffers from a similar issue: GCC 13 will allow either, but the currently released GCC 12 allows only the "%a0" form. Introduce a macro ASM_NO_PREFIX, defined in bits/compiler.h, to abstract away this difference and allow different architectures to use different operand modifiers.

* [build] Allow __asmcall to be used as a type attributeMichael Brown2021-03-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The "used" attribute can be applied only to functions or variables, which prevents the use of __asmcall as a type attribute. Fix by removing "used" from the definition of __asmcall for i386 and x86_64 architectures, and adding explicit __used annotations where necessary. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [linux] Use host glibc system call wrappersMichael Brown2021-03-011-6/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When building as a Linux userspace application, iPXE currently implements its own system calls to the host kernel rather than relying on the host's C library. The output binary is statically linked and has no external dependencies. This matches the general philosophy of other platforms on which iPXE runs, since there are no external libraries available on either BIOS or UEFI bare metal. However, it would be useful for the Linux userspace application to be able to link against host libraries such as libslirp. Modify the build process to perform a two-stage link: first picking out the requested objects in the usual way from blib.a but with relocations left present, then linking again with a helper object to create a standard hosted application. The helper object provides the standard main() entry point and wrappers for the Linux system calls required by the iPXE Linux drivers and interface code. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [build] Prevent use of MMX and SSE registersMichael Brown2018-03-201-2/+1Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existence of MMX and SSE is required by the System V x86_64 ABI and so is assumed by gcc, but these registers are not preserved by our own interrupt handlers and are unlikely to be preserved by other context switch handlers in a boot firmware environment. Explicitly prevent gcc from using MMX or SSE registers to avoid potential problems due to silent register corruption. We must remove the %xmm0-%xmm5 clobbers from the x86_64 version of hv_call() since otherwise gcc will complain about unknown register names. Theoretically, we should probably add code to explicitly preserve the %xmm0-%xmm5 registers across a hypercall, in order to guarantee to external code that these registers remain unchanged. In practice this is difficult since SSE registers are disabled by default: for background information see commits 71560d1 ("[librm] Preserve FPU, MMX and SSE state across calls to virt_call()") and dd9a14d ("[librm] Conditionalize the workaround for the Tivoli VMM's SSE garbling").

* [bios] Add bin-x86_64-pcbios build platformMichael Brown2016-02-169-100/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move most arch/i386 files to arch/x86, and adjust the contents of the Makefiles and the include/bits/*.h headers to reflect the new locations. This patch makes no substantive code changes, as can be seen using a rename-aware diff (e.g. "git show -M5"). This patch does not make the pcbios platform functional for x86_64; it merely allows it to compile without errors. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>

* [build] Fix the REQUIRE_SYMBOL mechanismMichael Brown2015-03-051-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At some point in the past few years, binutils became more aggressive at removing unused symbols. To function as a symbol requirement, a relocation record must now be in a section marked with @progbits and must not be in a section which gets discarded during the link (either via --gc-sections or via /DISCARD/). Update REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to generate relocation records meeting these criteria. To minimise the impact upon the final binary size, we use existing symbols (specified via the REQUIRING_SYMBOL() macro) as the relocation targets where possible. We use R_386_NONE or R_X86_64_NONE relocation types to prevent any actual unwanted relocation taking place. Where no suitable symbol exists for REQUIRING_SYMBOL() (such as in config.c), the macro PROVIDE_REQUIRING_SYMBOL() can be used to generate a one-byte-long symbol to act as the relocation target. If there are versions of binutils for which this approach fails, then the fallback will probably involve killing off REQUEST_SYMBOL(), redefining REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to use the current definition of REQUEST_SYMBOL(), and postprocessing the linked ELF file with something along the lines of "nm -u | wc -l" to check that there are no undefined symbols remaining.

* [rng] Add ANS X9.82 Approved Source of Entropy InputMichael Brown2012-02-211-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ANS X9.82 specifies several Approved Sources of Entropy Input (SEI). One such SEI uses an entropy source as the Source of Entropy Input, condensing each entropy source output after each GetEntropy call. This can be implemented relatively cheaply in iPXE and avoids the need to allocate potentially very large buffers. (Note that the terms "entropy source" and "Source of Entropy Input" are not synonyms within the context of ANS X9.82.) Use the iPXE API mechanism to allow entropy sources to be selected at compilation time. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
* [block] Replace gPXE block-device API with an iPXE asynchronous interfaceMichael Brown2010-09-141-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The block device interface used in gPXE predates the invention of even the old gPXE data-transfer interface, let alone the current iPXE generic asynchronous interface mechanism. Bring this old code up to date, with the following benefits: o Block device commands can be cancelled by the requestor. The INT 13 layer uses this to provide a global timeout on all INT 13 calls, with the result that an unexpected passive failure mode (such as an iSCSI target ACKing the request but never sending a response) will lead to a timeout that gets reported back to the INT 13 user, rather than simply freezing the system. o INT 13,00 (reset drive) is now able to reset the underlying block device. INT 13 users, such as DOS, that use INT 13,00 as a method for error recovery now have a chance of recovering. o All block device commands are tagged, with a numerical tag that will show up in debugging output and in packet captures; this will allow easier interpretation of bug reports that include both sources of information. o The extremely ugly hacks used to generate the boot firmware tables have been eradicated and replaced with a generic acpi_describe() method (exploiting the ability of iPXE interfaces to pass through methods to an underlying interface). The ACPI tables are now built in a shared data block within .bss16, rather than each requiring dedicated space in .data16. o The architecture-independent concept of a SAN device has been exposed to the iPXE core through the sanboot API, which provides calls to hook, unhook, boot, and describe SAN devices. This allows for much more flexible usage patterns (such as hooking an empty SAN device and then running an OS installer via TFTP). Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>

* [x86_64] Add support for compilation as an x86_64 binaryMichael Brown2008-12-0511-0/+136
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
