* [util] Allow Option::ROM to understand and modify initialisation entry pointMichael Brown2008-08-151-5/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for manipulating the jump instruction that forms the option ROM initialisation entry point, so that mergerom.pl can treat it just like other entry points. Add support for merging the initialisation entry point (and IBM BOFM table) to mergerom.pl; this is another slightly icky but unfortunately necessary GPL vs. NDA workaround. When mergerom.pl replaces an entry point in the original ROM, it now fills in the corresponding entry point in the merged ROM with the original value; this allows (for example) a merged initialisation entry point to do some processing and then jump back to the original entry point.

This utility is required as a workaround for legal restrictions on including GPL and non-GPL code within the same expansion ROM image. While this is not encouraged, we are prepared to accept that concatenation of ROM images and updating of the ROM header data structures can be classed as "mere aggregation" within the terms of the GPL. If in any doubt, assume that you cannot include GPL and non-GPL code within the same expansion ROM image. Contact the Etherboot team for clarification on your specific circumstances.
