* [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
