2017-08-11x86/boot: Add missing declaration of string functionsNicholas Mc Guire
[ Upstream commit fac69d0efad08fc15e4dbfc116830782acc0dc9a ] Add the missing declarations of basic string functions to string.h to allow a clean build. Fixes: 5be865661516 ("String-handling functions for the new x86 setup code.")

2016-06-08x86, asm: use bool for bitops and other assembly outputsH. Peter Anvin
The gcc people have confirmed that using "bool" when combined with inline assembly always is treated as a byte-sized operand that can be assumed to be 0 or 1, which is exactly what the SET instruction emits. Change the output types and intermediate variables of as many operations as practical to "bool". Signed-off-by: H.

2015-03-23x86/boot: Standardize strcmp()Arjun Sreedharan
strcmp() is always expected to return 0 when arguments are equal, negative when its first argument @str1 is less than its second argument @str2 and a positive value otherwise. Previously strcmp("a", "b") returned 1. Now it gives -1, as it is supposed to. Until now this bug never triggered, because all uses for strcmp() in the boot code tested for nonzero: triton:~/tip> git grep strcmp arch/x86/boot/ arch/x86/boot/boot.h:int strcmp(const char *str1, const char *str2); arch/x86/boot/edd.c: if (!strcmp(eddarg, "skipmbr") || !strcmp(eddarg, "skip")) { arch/x86/boot/edd.c: else if (!strcmp(eddarg, "off")) arch/x86/boot/edd.c: else if (!strcmp(eddarg, "on")) should in the future strcmp() be used in a comparative way in the boot code, it might have led to (not so subtle) bugs.

2014-05-08x86, boot: Remove misc.h inclusion from compressed/string.cVivek Goyal
Given the fact that we removed inclusion of boot.h from boot/string.c does not look like we need misc.h inclusion in compressed/string.c. So remove it. misc.h was also pulling in string_32.h which in turn had macros for memcmp and memcpy. So we don't need to #undef memcmp and memcpy anymore.

2014-05-08x86, boot: Do not include boot.h in string.cVivek Goyal
string.c does not require whole of boot.h. Just inclusion of linux/types.h and ctypes.h seems to be sufficient. Keep list of stuff being included in string.c to bare minimal so that string.c can be included in other places easily. For example, Currently boot/compressed/string.c includes boot/string.c but looks like it does not want boot/boot.h. Hence there is a define in boot/compressed/misc.h "define BOOT_BOOT_H" which prevents inclusion of boot.h in compressed/string.c. And compressed/string.c is forced to include misc.h just for that reason. So by removing inclusion of boot.h, we can also get rid of inclusion of misch.h in compressed/misc.c. This also enables including of boot/string.c in purgatory/ code relatively easily.

2014-03-19x86, boot: Move memcmp() into string.h and string.cVivek Goyal
Try to treat memcmp() in same way as memcpy() and memset(). Provide a declaration in boot/string.h and by default user gets a memcmp() which maps to builtin function. Move optimized definition of memcmp() in boot/string.c. Now a user can do #undef memcmp and link against string.c to use optimzied memcmp(). It also simplifies boot/compressed/string.c where we had to redefine memcmp(). That extra definition is gone now.

2011-12-12x86, efi: EFI boot stub supportMatt Fleming
There is currently a large divide between kernel development and the development of EFI boot loaders. The idea behind this patch is to give the kernel developers full control over the EFI boot process. As H. Peter Anvin put it, "The 'kernel carries its own stub' approach been very successful in dealing with BIOS, and would make a lot of sense to me for EFI as well." This patch introduces an EFI boot stub that allows an x86 bzImage to be loaded and executed by EFI firmware. The bzImage appears to the firmware as an EFI application. Luckily there are enough free bits within the bzImage header so that it can masquerade as an EFI application, thereby coercing the EFI firmware into loading it and jumping to its entry point. The beauty of this masquerading approach is that both BIOS and EFI boot loaders can still load and run the same bzImage, thereby allowing a single kernel image to work in any boot environment. The EFI boot stub supports multiple initrds, but they must exist on the same partition as the bzImage. Command-line arguments for the kernel can be appended after the bzImage name when run from the EFI shell, e.g. Shell> bzImage console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sdb initrd=initrd.img v7: - Fix checkpatch warnings. v6: - Try to allocate initrd memory just below hdr->inird_addr_max. v5: - load_options_size is UTF-16, which needs dividing by 2 to convert to the corresponding ASCII size. v4: - Don't read more than image->load_options_size v3: - Fix following warnings when compiling CONFIG_EFI_STUB=n arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c: In function ‘main’: arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c:138:24: warning: unused variable ‘pe_header’ arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c:138:15: warning: unused variable ‘file_sz’ - As reported by Matthew Garrett, some Apple machines have GOPs that don't have hardware attached. We need to weed these out by searching for ones that handle the PCIIO protocol. - Don't allocate memory if no initrds are on cmdline - Don't trust image->load_options_size Maarten Lankhorst noted: - Don't strip first argument when booted from efibootmgr - Don't allocate too much memory for cmdline - Don't update cmdline_size, the kernel considers it read-only - Don't accept '\n' for initrd names v2: - File alignment was too large, was 8192 should be 512. Reported by Maarten Lankhorst on LKML. - Added UGA support for graphics - Use VIDEO_TYPE_EFI instead of hard-coded number. - Move linelength assignment until after we've assigned depth - Dynamically fill out AddressOfEntryPoint in tools/build.c - Don't use magic number for GDT/TSS stuff. Requested by Andi Kleen - The bzImage may need to be relocated as it may have been loaded at a high address address by the firmware. This was required to get my macbook booting because the firmware loaded it at 0x7cxxxxxx, which triggers this error in decompress_kernel(), if (heap > ((-__PAGE_OFFSET-(128<<20)-1) & 0x7fffffff)) error("Destination address too large"); Cc: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com> Cc: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com> Tested-by: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg@euromail.se> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1321383097.2657.9.camel@mfleming-mobl1.ger.corp.intel.com Signed-off-by: H.

This patch adds serial I/O support to the real-mode setup (very early boot) printf(). It's useful for debugging boot code when running Linux under KVM, for example.
