* Sat Apr 24 2004 Matt Domsch - Fixed reversed logic of create_or_edit_variable which prevented object creation or editing on sysfs. - Removed debug printfs in sysfs read/write commands. - Released v0.5.0-test3 * Thu Feb 04 2004 Matt Domsch - removed -t short option for --test - added -t and -T delete timeout options - updated man page and README about the timeout options - Released v0.5.0-test2 * Tue Sep 09 2003 Matt Domsch - Released v0.5.0-test1 * Thu Sep 04 2003 Matt Domsch - Seperated access to variables through /proc into efivars_procfs.[ch] - Added efivars_sysfs.h to access variables through sysfs. - Moved around some functions, cleaned up some duplication. * Thu Sep 04 2003 Matt Domsch - released v0.4.2-test2 as v0.4.2 without additional changes. * Mon Aug 11 2003 Matt Domsch - fixed unaligned access errors - removed extraneous printing of mac addr when creating netboot entries - sync docbook to README - whitespace cleanups * Thu Jul 31 2003 Matt Domsch - Applied patch from Dann Frazier to enable creating netboot entries. - update AUTHORS with Dann's netboot contribution. - Until we can get the ACPI HID and UID programatically, make the user pass them in when creating a netboot entry. - Add O_DIRECT support for reading the disk. - Fix unparse_hardware_path() for the PCI case - the device and function values were printed in reverse order. - Fix the README file to reflect all the options that can be passed, and add a new item for netboot entries. - whitespace cleanups * Fri Oct 25 2002 Matt Domsch - trivial patch from Fabien Lebaillif - Delamare increases the length of the boot option description from 40 to 64 bytes. * Tue Oct 22 2002 Matt Domsch - ran docbook2man on the man page Dann Frazier created - Added man page to spec file - Added patches from Dann Frazier - Removes the requirement to be root to run efibootmgr. This lets mortal users run efibootmgr to check the version, and see the --help output. It should also allow efibootmgr to work under security systems without the strict root/non-root dichotomy. - Checks to see if a boot option was specified when a boot option deletion was requested. - Released version 0.4.1 * Sun Jul 21 2002 Matt Domsch - Added kernel_has_blkgetsize64() test, now uses BLKGETSIZE64 if on a known-good kernel. This is important when the Large Block Device (64-bit block address) patch gets merged into the 2.5 kernel. * Wed May 1 2002 Matt Domsch - Released version 0.4.0 * Tue Apr 30 2002 Matt Domsch - Added some printfs to compare_gpts(). * Mon Apr 08 2002 Matt Domsch - Make sure partition number arg is in the GPT disk. - Added a few more _FILE_OFFSET_BITS defines where needed * Fri Apr 05 2002 Matt Domsch - Added syncs to make tarball target so NFS is current and CVS dirs get deleted before the tarball is made. - Added a few __leXX_to_cpu() calls in code currently commented out in gpt.c * Tue Apr 02 2002 Matt Domsch - finished conversion to GPT code * Sat Mar 30 2002 Matt Domsch - began conversion to GPT code in post-2.4.18 and post-2.5.7 kernels. - added manpage contributed by dannf@fc.hp.com * Mon Feb 11 2002 Matt Domsch - BLKGETSIZE64 is fixed in 2.4.18-pre8 and 2.5.4-pre3. Wait a bit longer before using though. - added list_for_each_safe() routine. It's needed in the boot var deletion routine, though it was already breaking out once found. - changed struct list_head to list_t - released v0.4.0-test4 * Fri Jan 18 2002 Matt Domsch - commented out BLKGETSIZE64 ioctl use for now. Kernels 2.4.15-2.4.18 and 2.5.0-2.5.3 don't return the right value. * Thu Jan 3 2002 Matt Domsch - added back in read last sector IOCTL hack, but only after read() fails. - released v0.4.0-test4 * Thu Jan 3 2002 Matt Domsch - more cleanups - released v0.4.0-test3 * Wed Jan 2 2002 Matt Domsch - Changed PROC_DIR_EFI to PROC_DIR_EFI_VARS - write_variable() now searches /proc/efi/vars for a variable that's not the one being written. The EFI 1.1 sample implementation changed the name of the "victim" being written to (was Efi-xxxxx, now EFI-xxxxx), so previous versions of efibootmgr don't work with the new firmware. This should fix that up. - released v0.4.0-test2 * Fri Dec 7 2001 Matt Domsch - Removed read last sector ioctl hack, it's not needed anymore. The kernel takes care of it for us with a new patch. - Added test for valid PMBR, similar to parted and the kernel. - Added test for returning size of block device as a u64. - Added test for returning sector size as int, and use that. - Changed GPT struct and member names to be more Linux-like. - added -g option to force disk with invalid PMBR to be treated as GPT anyhow. - released v0.4.0-test1 * Thu Aug 9 2001 Matt Domsch - Added some uniqueness to the MBR signature. - removed ExclusiveArch from spec file - released v0.3.4 * Mon Aug 6 2001 Matt Domsch - applied patch from Richard Hirst to fix efichar_char_strcmp(). * Fri Aug 3 2001 Matt Domsch - By request, warn when creating a new boot entry with the same name as another boot entry. - released v0.3.3 * Mon Jul 30 2001 Matt Domsch - Added test for non-zero signature on MBR-style disks, and new -w flag to write a unique signature to the disk if so. - released v0.3.3-test4 - Fixed counting of optional data length (extra args) - released v0.3.3-test5 * Fri Jul 27 2001 Matt Domsch - Added test for running as root - released v0.3.3-test3 * Thu Jul 26 2001 Matt Domsch - Unparse extra args being passed to bootloader too. - released v0.3.3-test2 * Wed Jul 25 2001 Matt Domsch - Added -u option to pass extra args to the bootloader in unicode (default is to pass in ASCII) - Added -t option to allow writing to a file (for testing) - released v0.3.3-test1 * Tue May 22 2001 Matt Domsch - Applied patch from Andreas Schwab. remove_from_boot_order() called read_boot_order() without checking the return status. - Changed README to remove os loader args comment - Changed efi_status_t to be unsigned long (not uint64_t) as per EFI spec. This allows efibootmgr to be recompiled as a 32-bit or 64-bit app depending on its running on 32-bit or 64-bit Linux. Note: this changes the size of the structure returned in /proc/efi/vars to match the kernel implementation. 32-bit efibootmgr won't work on 64-bit Linux and vice versa. - release v0.3.2 * Fri May 18 2001 Matt Domsch - changed usage() to *not* let you think you can pass args to the OS loader - release v0.3.1 * Fri May 18 2001 Matt Domsch - Padded HARDDRIVE_DEVICE_PATH out to please EFI Boot Manager. - Incorporated patches from Andreas Schwab - replace __u{8,16,32,64} with uint{8,16,32,64}_t - use _FILE_OFFSET_BITS - fix a segfault - release v0.3.0 * Tue May 15 2001 Matt Domsch - initial external release v0.2.0
