2 * elilo 3.12 release commit
3 * Added additional #defines for debug levels to reduce the output
4 * Added Mac console patch rework from Julien Blache @ debian
5 this fixes the invisible console output from elilo on Macs
6 * Moved static ELILO_VERSION variable from elilo.c to elilo.h
7 so that elilo will print its version string and arch on startup.
8 * Fixed bug 2825044 ExitBootServices error handling, correctly deal
9 with changed memory map key if memory map changes from under elilo.
10 * Added memory map key to map debug output.
11 * Fixed bug 2874380 netbooting just flat broken. fixed ia64, x86_64
12 ia32, fixed handling of server side support of tfpt options (get file size)
13 elilo now attempts to get file size before attempting read of file
14 to set the buffers up correctly and deal with tftp servers that dont
15 support options extensions a little better.
16 * netboot, fixed bad blocksize handling
17 * netboot, fixed filename length for elilo-x86_64.conf type on tftp
19 * increased bzimage kernel max length sizes to 4mb on i386 and 8mb on
20 x86_64... this is a legacy design hold over from original design and
21 needs to be re-written to do dynamic size memory management based on
22 the size of the actual vmlinuz image, as ia64/gzip does.

24 * elilo 3.10 release commit
25 * Bumped version string to 3.10
26 * added PTR_FMT 32bit & 64bit pointer translation for correct output
27 * elilo hang bugfix x86_64 non-standard kernels with non-traditional start address
28 elilo will pull the start address from the kernel elf header for 2.6
29 or newer kernels, map memory and use that start address, else use standard
30 1MB default start address. And handle case of overlapping kernels
31 and initrds in memory. Patch contributor Stuart Hayes @ Dell,
33 * ported kernel start adress fix to ia32
34 * eliminated all possible compiler warnings except those actually
35 caused by gnu-efi that cant be fixed here.
36 * Debug output improvement, added pauses with visual feedback when
37 user sets debug & verbose options.
38 * bugfix added missing find_bits function definition back into ia32
40 * bugfix loader_probe now correctly errors out if no loaders
42 2008-01-11 signed off by Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
43 * Various compile warning cleanups.
44 2008-01-03 signed off by Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
45 * Patch contribution from Scott Davilla <davilla@4pi.com>
46 when x is zero for the first call to add_memory_region, e820_map[-1]
47 will access memory outside the bounds of e820_map. While this does
48 not result in any problems as there is a UINT32 unused_8[41] block
49 above the e820_map[0] location that should have been zeroed by the
50 bootloader, the code should not access outside the bounds of
52 2008-01-03 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
53 * initrd.c -- Let the allocator decide where to grab the memory from
54 the efi memory map. Current start_addr=image->start_addr forces the
55 same efi region everytime, and has a 7mb limit. ramdisk (initrd.img)
56 files larger than 7MB wouldnt fit into the memory region assumed by
57 the image->start_addr resulting in an elilo hang. Leaving start_addr
58 NULL at initialization forces alloc_pages to get a memory region
59 sufficient for the size of the initrd image.
60 2007-12-19 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
61 * bumping version string to 3.8
62 2007-12-19 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
63 * MORE PATCHES FROM INTEL FOR IA32 X86_64.
64 * Fix compile warning for cmdline_addr assignment.
65 * Fix an issue caused by uninitialized e820_nr_map in fill_e820map.
66 * On some machines, there are too many EFI memory map entries, so that,
67 the number of E820 map entries converted from EFI memory map exceeds
68 the limit (128). This patch fixes this bug by merging consecutive
69 memory map entries with the same type.
70 * CL_MAGIC is not supported by 32-bit boot protocol. So, the kernel
71 command line passing code is changed accordingly.
72 * EFI-2.0 boot support patches have been accepted into Linux kernel
73 2.6.24-rc4 and EFI runtime service patches have been accepted by
74 Linux kernel 2.6.24-rc4-mm1. There are some changes during the
75 merging, so there are some updates for elilo ia32/x86_64 too.
76 * The x86_64 boot parameters of Linux kernel is rearranged to line up
77 with ia32 boot parameters.
78 * The boot loader signature of IA32 and x86_64 is redefined to
79 make it possible for Linux kernel to distinguish whether the
80 underlying firmware is EFI 32 or EFI 64.
81 * The EFI framebuffer type ID is changed in Linux kernel to
82 conform to Linux kernel framebuffer type ID grouping rules. So the
83 EFI framebuffer type ID setting code in ELILO is changed accordingly.
84 * E820 memory map is added to IA32 to make it possible for
85 Linux kernel not to depend on EFI memory map on EFI 32.
86 2007-09-27 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
87 * updating changelog for last commit that was omitted
88 * incorporating AGriffis patches to enhance parsing
89 passes root= option to kernel options and accounts for -- option

162 2006-01-27 Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com>
163 * Found a couple more places where vmcode isn't zeroed, causing the
164 option to get carried over to labels it shouldn't.
165 2006-01-09 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
167 2005-12-22 Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com>
168 * Fixed vmcode_name initialization in textmenu chooser
169 2005-12-01 Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com>
170 * Applied patch from Fred Yang <fred.yang@intel.com> to support the
171 vmm= boot option. This option specifies the kernel image for a
172 virtual machine monitor (aka hypervisor). The vmm= and image=
173 options are used together to load both the hypervisor kernel and
174 the guest domain kernel into memory. If a vmm= option is not
175 specified, elilo defaults to the old behavior of loading and booting
176 to the image= kernel.
177 * Added support for compressed image= files when used with the vmm=
178 option. If the image= file is detected to be gzip compressed, the
179 image will be uncompressed into memory before it is provided to the
180 hypervisor. Any combination of compressed and uncompressed images
181 can be used for the image and vmm options.
182 2005-09-15 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
183 * Applied patch from Tristan Gingold to add dcache flush and sync with
184 icache to gzip and plain loaders. This ommision was just noticed now
185 due to the much larger caches in Montecito, and the smaller size of
186 Xen (as compared to the linux kernel).
187 2004-09-27 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
188 * Increase the hardcoded size of the texmenu chooser menu from 16 to 64
189 2004-09-23 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
190 * Fix for 924147. Thanks to Stephanie Schaaf <sas@sgi.com> for a patch
191 that the fix is based on.
192 2004-02-19 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
193 * Fixed bug where default image initrd would carry over to another
194 image that was selected interactively (iff the newly selected image
195 did not have an initrd).
196 * Added support for subnet-specific config files in netfs.
197 2004-02-17 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
198 * integrated ia32 compressed kernel support from Matt Tolentino

206 * updated elilo.txt and netbooting.txt
207 * fix a bug in choosers/simple.c:print_infos().
208 it needs to check if config file path is absolute
209 when printing filename.
210 * move definitions of CHAR_SLASH CHAR_BACKSLASH to elilo.h
211 * fix a bug in read_config() where it would try other
212 filename even when the user explicitely specified one
213 via -C, now it fails it that file cannot be opened.
214 * updated simple chooser set of builtin command keys
215 * command keys are only valid if first on the line
216 * increase default buffer size and increment when netbooting
217 2003-06-04 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
218 * fix fs/netfs.c to work with recent version
219 of EFI (14.61 or higher) which do not have the
220 TFTP problem anymore. fix submitted by Guy Laborde
221 2003-04-21 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
222 * ext2fs support is turned off by default to avoid
223 problems with ext3-formatted partitions.
224 * added gcc version check. MUST use 3.0 or higher
225 2003-03-03 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
226 * added check on dev_tab in fs/*fs.c:*_uninstall()
227 2003-02-07 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
228 * clean up in glue_localfs.c w.r.t. CHAR16 in set_default_path()
229 * added support for extracting basename of bootloader path
230 when using BOOTP (DHCP) only. The prefix is then used for all files
231 open via netfs. Suggestion and initial patch by Guy Laborde from HP.
232 2003-01-28 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
233 * fix the set_default_path() routine in glue_localfs.c. It would not
234 correctly get the basename of the devpath. This caused the
235 elilo.conf not to be found sometimes.
236 2003-01-21 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
237 * fix bug in glue_netfs.c convert_ip2decstr() which caused some IP
238 addresses to be incorrectly converted to strings.
239 2002-11-01 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
240 * fix bug in -r option for IA64. There is no argument to this option.
241 2002-10-15 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
242 * fixed a double free bug for the kernel memory in case of abort.
243 (bug spotted by Levent Akyl from Intel)
245 2002-09-14 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
246 * applied patch from Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de> to eliloalt.c.

251 * rewrote fs/ext2fs.c:read_bytes() to large memory stack buffer which
252 was bigger than the 128KB limit of EFI causing some weird fimrware
253 errors. bug reported by OMURA Jun'ichi <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com>

255 2002-09-10 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
256 * fix a bug in argify() that was causing an EFI assertion
257 when aborting at the elilo prompt when netbooted.
258 2002-08-26 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
259 * fixed devschemes/simple.c to use SPrint() instead of its own buggy
260 conversion code (spotted by Richard Hirst).
261 * fix bug in argify() when there was no NULL character in the string.

271 2002-06-13 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
272 * Changed the despecialization character for the variables from \\ to &
273 to avoid conflicts with \\ as a path separator
274 2002-06-11 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>

278 initialization bug in choosers/textmenu.c
279 * applied patch from Richard Hirst <rhirst@linuxcare.com> to make elilo
280 compliant with EFI spec with regards to where it looks for files.
281 With this patch, elilo will look in the directory it was loaded
282 from, not on the root of the partition anymore.

340 2001-08-01 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
341 * fixed bug in fs/netfs.c where it would not handle the small buffer
342 error correctly. The retry path was not allocating a bigger buffer.
343 * Global config options are now used if the user specifies a non-label
344 load target, i.e. a kernel image file.

358 * fixed to wait_timeout() to correct the problem with the interactive prompt when
359 return is hit directly when no text
360 * fixed command line argument destruction problem, now we make a copy of them. This
361 was affecting elilo when called directly from bootmanager with NVRAM options.
363 2001-06-28 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
364 * removed W2U() hack to get from wide-char to unicode. Use -fshort-wchar option instead.
365 * split gnu-efi package in two different packages: the libary+include+crt and the bootloader.
366 * restructured the fileops module. Now use direct function calls.
367 * added support for accessing files on different devices.
368 * fixed a buffer leak in simple_chooser.c. Renamed simple_chooser.c to simple.c.
369 * created a strops.c file to incorporate all string operations functions.
370 * added support for ext2fs filesystem.
371 * restructured code to allow additional filesystems to be added easily.
372 * cleaned up add-on chooser interface.
373 * restructured code to use the EFI protocol interface to install filesystems.
374 * added compile-time options to turn on and off specific filesystems.
375 * added support for architecture specific configuration options (elilo.conf).
376 * added fpswa option to IA-64 to designate a fpswa driver file.
377 * incoporated IA-32 support from Mike Johnston <michael.johnston@intel.com>
378 * incorporated rewritten gzip.c:flush_window() from Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
379 * added interface for custom device naming schemes (devnames directory).
380 * added support for 2 possible config file (now just on netboot). The first
381 (primary) choice uses a host specific filename based on the IP address. Suggestion
382 from Egan Ford <egan@sense.net>.
384 2001-04-06 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
386 * incorporated patches from David and Michael Johnston at Intel
387 to get the package to compile for IA-32 linux target.
389 * Fixed ELILO to compile for Ia-32 (does not execute yet, though):
390 Makefile and start_kernel() function.
392 2001-04-06 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
395 get the timeout directive to do something. implemented the global
398 * Fix the efi_main() to deal with the -C option properly
400 2001-04-05 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
402 * update efi library to latest EFI toolkit 1.02 as distributed
403 by Intel. Fixed header + library files to compile with GCC
405 * merged ELI and LILO (as of gnu-efi-1.1) together, mostly
406 taking the config file feature of ELI.
408 * renamed LILO to ELILO to make the distinction
410 * restructured code to make it easier to understand and maintain
412 * fixed FPSWA driver checking and loading: we try all possible
413 files and let the driver itself figure out if it is the most
415 * added support for compression (gzip) but keep support for plain
416 ELF image. ELILO autodetects the format
418 * change the way the kernel is invoked. Now we call it in
419 physical memory mode. This breaks the dependency between the
420 kernel code and the loader. No more lilo_start.c madness.
422 * changed the way the boot_params are passed. We don't use the
423 ZERO_PAGE_ADDR trick anymore. Instead we use EFI runtime memory.
424 The address of the structure is passed to the kernel in r28
427 * released as gnu-efi-2.0
429 2001-04-03 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
431 * gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c (_relocate): Change return type from "void"
432 to "int". Return error status if relocation fails for some
435 * gnuefi/elf_ia32_efi.lds: Drop unneeded ".rel.reloc" section.
437 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (_start): Exit if _relocate() returns with
438 non-zero exit status.
440 * inc/ia32/efibind.h [__GNUC__]: Force 8-byte alignment for 64-bit
441 types as that is what EFI appears to be expecting, despite the
442 "#pragma pack()" at the beginning of the file!
444 2001-03-29 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
446 * gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c: Add a couple of defines to work around
447 libc/efilib collision on uint64_t et al.
448 (_relocate): Use ELF32_R_TYPE() instead of ELFW(R_TYPE)().
450 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (dummy): Add a dummy relocation entry.
452 2001-03-29 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
454 * gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c: Add a couple of defines to work around
455 libc/efilib collision on uint64_t et al.
456 (_relocate): Use ELF32_R_TYPE() instead of ELFW(R_TYPE)().
458 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (dummy): Add a dummy relocation entry.
460 2000-10-26 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
462 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Mention .rela.sdata.
464 * Make.defaults (CFLAGS): Remove -nostdinc flags so we can pick
465 up the C compiler's stdarg.h.
467 * inc/stdarg.h: Remove this file. It's not correct for gcc (nor
468 most other optimizing compilers).
470 2000-10-10 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
472 * cleaned up the error message and printing of those.
473 * added support to load the FPSWA from a file in case support is not
474 present in the firmware already
475 * fixed split_args() to do the right thing when you have leading spaces
477 * changed the argify() function to rely on \0 instead of LoadOptionSize
478 as the field seems to be broken with current firmware
479 * bumped version to 1.0
481 2000-10-04 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
483 * gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S: Reserve space for up to 750 function descriptors.
485 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Add .sdata section for small data and
486 put __gp in the "middle" of it.
488 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia64.S (_start): Use movl/add to load
489 gp-relative addresses that could be out of the range of the addl
491 * gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S (_relocate): Ditto.
493 * apps/Makefile: Remove standard rules and include Make.rules instead.
494 * lilo/Makefile: Ditto.
496 * Make.rules: New file.
498 2000-08-04 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
499 * released version 0.9
500 * incorporated ACPI changes for Asuza by NEC < kouchi@hpc.bs1.fc.nec.co.jp>
501 * added support for initrd (-i option) original ELI code from Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com>)
503 * got rid of #ifdef LILO_DEBUG and uses macro instead
504 * fix a few extra memory leaks in create_boot_params()
505 * added exit capability just before starting the kernel
507 2000-06-22 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
509 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Add .srodata, .ctors, .IA64.unwind,
510 .IA64.unwind_info to .data section and .rela.ctors to .rela
513 2000-04-03 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
515 * lilo/lilo.c (LILO_VERSION): Up version number to 0.9.
517 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Include .IA_64.unwind and
518 .IA_64.unwind_info in .data segment to avoid EFI load error
519 "ImageAddress: pointer outside of image" error due to the .dynsym
520 relocations against these sections.
522 * ChangeLog: Moved from lilo/ChangeLogs.
524 * gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S: fixed typo: .space directive had constant
525 100 hardcoded instead of using MAX_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTORS
528 Fri Mar 17 15:19:18 PST 2000 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
531 * replace the getopt.c with new version free with better license
532 * created a documentation file
533 * fix a couple of memory leaks
535 * created a separate directory for lilo in the gnu-efi package.
536 * added support for the BOOT_IMAGE argument to kernel
537 * default is to build natively now
