8 - yet some more mac fixes
9 - align elilo with latest kernel boot protocol format.
10 - new memory management strategy for initrd and kernel image loading.
11 * add force text mode command line option.

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

38 * elilo 3.10 release commit
39 * Bumped version string to 3.10
40 * added PTR_FMT 32bit & 64bit pointer translation for correct output
41 * elilo hang bugfix x86_64 non-standard kernels with non-traditional start address
42 elilo will pull the start address from the kernel elf header for 2.6
43 or newer kernels, map memory and use that start address, else use standard
44 1MB default start address. And handle case of overlapping kernels
45 and initrds in memory. Patch contributor Stuart Hayes @ Dell,
47 * ported kernel start adress fix to ia32
48 * eliminated all possible compiler warnings except those actually
49 caused by gnu-efi that cant be fixed here.
50 * Debug output improvement, added pauses with visual feedback when
51 user sets debug & verbose options.
52 * bugfix added missing find_bits function definition back into ia32
54 * bugfix loader_probe now correctly errors out if no loaders

61 * Patch contribution from Scott Davilla <davilla@4pi.com>
62 when x is zero for the first call to add_memory_region, e820_map[-1]
63 will access memory outside the bounds of e820_map. While this does
64 not result in any problems as there is a UINT32 unused_8[41] block
65 above the e820_map[0] location that should have been zeroed by the
66 bootloader, the code should not access outside the bounds of
69 2008-01-03 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
70 * initrd.c -- Let the allocator decide where to grab the memory from
71 the efi memory map. Current start_addr=image->start_addr forces the
72 same efi region everytime, and has a 7mb limit. ramdisk (initrd.img)
73 files larger than 7MB wouldnt fit into the memory region assumed by
74 the image->start_addr resulting in an elilo hang. Leaving start_addr
75 NULL at initialization forces alloc_pages to get a memory region
76 sufficient for the size of the initrd image.
78 2007-12-19 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
79 * bumping version string to 3.8
81 2007-12-19 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
82 * MORE PATCHES FROM INTEL FOR IA32 X86_64.
83 * Fix compile warning for cmdline_addr assignment.
84 * Fix an issue caused by uninitialized e820_nr_map in fill_e820map.
85 * On some machines, there are too many EFI memory map entries, so that,
86 the number of E820 map entries converted from EFI memory map exceeds
87 the limit (128). This patch fixes this bug by merging consecutive
88 memory map entries with the same type.
89 * CL_MAGIC is not supported by 32-bit boot protocol. So, the kernel
90 command line passing code is changed accordingly.
91 * EFI-2.0 boot support patches have been accepted into Linux kernel
92 2.6.24-rc4 and EFI runtime service patches have been accepted by
93 Linux kernel 2.6.24-rc4-mm1. There are some changes during the
94 merging, so there are some updates for elilo ia32/x86_64 too.
95 * The x86_64 boot parameters of Linux kernel is rearranged to line up
96 with ia32 boot parameters.
97 * The boot loader signature of IA32 and x86_64 is redefined to
98 make it possible for Linux kernel to distinguish whether the
99 underlying firmware is EFI 32 or EFI 64.
100 * The EFI framebuffer type ID is changed in Linux kernel to
101 conform to Linux kernel framebuffer type ID grouping rules. So the
102 EFI framebuffer type ID setting code in ELILO is changed accordingly.
103 * E820 memory map is added to IA32 to make it possible for
104 Linux kernel not to depend on EFI memory map on EFI 32.
106 2007-09-27 Jason Fleischli <jason.fleischli@hp.com>
107 * updating changelog for last commit that was omitted
108 * incorporating AGriffis patches to enhance parsing
109 passes root= option to kernel options and accounts for -- option

184 2006-01-27 Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com>
185 * Found a couple more places where vmcode isn't zeroed, causing the
186 option to get carried over to labels it shouldn't.
188 2006-01-09 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
191 2005-12-22 Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com>
192 * Fixed vmcode_name initialization in textmenu chooser
194 2005-12-01 Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@hp.com>
195 * Applied patch from Fred Yang <fred.yang@intel.com> to support the
196 vmm= boot option. This option specifies the kernel image for a
197 virtual machine monitor (aka hypervisor). The vmm= and image=
198 options are used together to load both the hypervisor kernel and
199 the guest domain kernel into memory. If a vmm= option is not
200 specified, elilo defaults to the old behavior of loading and booting
201 to the image= kernel.
202 * Added support for compressed image= files when used with the vmm=
203 option. If the image= file is detected to be gzip compressed, the
204 image will be uncompressed into memory before it is provided to the
205 hypervisor. Any combination of compressed and uncompressed images
206 can be used for the image and vmm options.
208 2005-09-15 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
209 * Applied patch from Tristan Gingold to add dcache flush and sync with
210 icache to gzip and plain loaders. This ommision was just noticed now
211 due to the much larger caches in Montecito, and the smaller size of
212 Xen (as compared to the linux kernel).
214 2004-09-27 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
215 * Increase the hardcoded size of the texmenu chooser menu from 16 to 64
217 2004-09-23 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
218 * Fix for 924147. Thanks to Stephanie Schaaf <sas@sgi.com> for a patch
219 that the fix is based on.
221 2004-02-19 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
222 * Fixed bug where default image initrd would carry over to another
223 image that was selected interactively (iff the newly selected image
224 did not have an initrd).
225 * Added support for subnet-specific config files in netfs.
227 2004-02-17 Brett Johnson <brett@hp.com>
228 * integrated ia32 compressed kernel support from Matt Tolentino

239 * updated elilo.txt and netbooting.txt
240 * fix a bug in choosers/simple.c:print_infos().
241 it needs to check if config file path is absolute
242 when printing filename.
243 * move definitions of CHAR_SLASH CHAR_BACKSLASH to elilo.h
244 * fix a bug in read_config() where it would try other
245 filename even when the user explicitely specified one
246 via -C, now it fails it that file cannot be opened.
247 * updated simple chooser set of builtin command keys
248 * command keys are only valid if first on the line
249 * increase default buffer size and increment when netbooting
251 2003-06-04 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
252 * fix fs/netfs.c to work with recent version
253 of EFI (14.61 or higher) which do not have the
254 TFTP problem anymore. fix submitted by Guy Laborde
256 2003-04-21 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
257 * ext2fs support is turned off by default to avoid
258 problems with ext3-formatted partitions.
259 * added gcc version check. MUST use 3.0 or higher
261 2003-03-03 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
262 * added check on dev_tab in fs/*fs.c:*_uninstall()
264 2003-02-07 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
265 * clean up in glue_localfs.c w.r.t. CHAR16 in set_default_path()
266 * added support for extracting basename of bootloader path
267 when using BOOTP (DHCP) only. The prefix is then used for all files
268 open via netfs. Suggestion and initial patch by Guy Laborde from HP.
270 2003-01-28 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
271 * fix the set_default_path() routine in glue_localfs.c. It would not
272 correctly get the basename of the devpath. This caused the
273 elilo.conf not to be found sometimes.
275 2003-01-21 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
276 * fix bug in glue_netfs.c convert_ip2decstr() which caused some IP
277 addresses to be incorrectly converted to strings.
279 2002-11-01 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
280 * fix bug in -r option for IA64. There is no argument to this option.
282 2002-10-15 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
283 * fixed a double free bug for the kernel memory in case of abort.
284 (bug spotted by Levent Akyl from Intel)
287 2002-09-14 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
288 * applied patch from Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de> to eliloalt.c.

291 2002-09-12 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
292 * removed extra free() from fs/ext2fs.c:ext2fs_init_state().
293 Bug report and fix by NOMURA Jun'ichi <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com>
294 * rewrote fs/ext2fs.c:read_bytes() to large memory stack buffer which
295 was bigger than the 128KB limit of EFI causing some weird fimrware
296 errors. bug reported by OMURA Jun'ichi <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com>

300 * fix a bug in argify() that was causing an EFI assertion
301 when aborting at the elilo prompt when netbooted.
303 2002-08-26 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
304 * fixed devschemes/simple.c to use SPrint() instead of its own buggy
305 conversion code (spotted by Richard Hirst).
306 * fix bug in argify() when there was no NULL character in the string.

417 * fixed command line argument destruction problem, now we make a copy of them. This
418 was affecting elilo when called directly from bootmanager with NVRAM options.
420 2001-06-28 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
421 * removed W2U() hack to get from wide-char to unicode. Use -fshort-wchar option instead.
422 * split gnu-efi package in two different packages: the libary+include+crt and the bootloader.
423 * restructured the fileops module. Now use direct function calls.
424 * added support for accessing files on different devices.
425 * fixed a buffer leak in simple_chooser.c. Renamed simple_chooser.c to simple.c.
426 * created a strops.c file to incorporate all string operations functions.

433 * added fpswa option to IA-64 to designate a fpswa driver file.
434 * incoporated IA-32 support from Mike Johnston <michael.johnston@intel.com>
435 * incorporated rewritten gzip.c:flush_window() from Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
436 * added interface for custom device naming schemes (devnames directory).
437 * added support for 2 possible config file (now just on netboot). The first
438 (primary) choice uses a host specific filename based on the IP address. Suggestion
439 from Egan Ford <egan@sense.net>.
441 2001-04-06 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
443 * incorporated patches from David and Michael Johnston at Intel
444 to get the package to compile for IA-32 linux target.
446 * Fixed ELILO to compile for Ia-32 (does not execute yet, though):
447 Makefile and start_kernel() function.
449 2001-04-06 Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de>
452 get the timeout directive to do something. implemented the global
455 * Fix the efi_main() to deal with the -C option properly
457 2001-04-05 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
459 * update efi library to latest EFI toolkit 1.02 as distributed
460 by Intel. Fixed header + library files to compile with GCC
462 * merged ELI and LILO (as of gnu-efi-1.1) together, mostly
463 taking the config file feature of ELI.
465 * renamed LILO to ELILO to make the distinction
467 * restructured code to make it easier to understand and maintain
469 * fixed FPSWA driver checking and loading: we try all possible
470 files and let the driver itself figure out if it is the most
472 * added support for compression (gzip) but keep support for plain
473 ELF image. ELILO autodetects the format
475 * change the way the kernel is invoked. Now we call it in
476 physical memory mode. This breaks the dependency between the
477 kernel code and the loader. No more lilo_start.c madness.
479 * changed the way the boot_params are passed. We don't use the
480 ZERO_PAGE_ADDR trick anymore. Instead we use EFI runtime memory.
481 The address of the structure is passed to the kernel in r28
484 * released as gnu-efi-2.0
486 2001-04-03 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
488 * gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c (_relocate): Change return type from "void"
489 to "int". Return error status if relocation fails for some
492 * gnuefi/elf_ia32_efi.lds: Drop unneeded ".rel.reloc" section.
494 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (_start): Exit if _relocate() returns with
495 non-zero exit status.
497 * inc/ia32/efibind.h [__GNUC__]: Force 8-byte alignment for 64-bit
498 types as that is what EFI appears to be expecting, despite the
499 "#pragma pack()" at the beginning of the file!
501 2001-03-29 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
503 * gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c: Add a couple of defines to work around
504 libc/efilib collision on uint64_t et al.
505 (_relocate): Use ELF32_R_TYPE() instead of ELFW(R_TYPE)().
507 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (dummy): Add a dummy relocation entry.
509 2001-03-29 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
511 * gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c: Add a couple of defines to work around
512 libc/efilib collision on uint64_t et al.
513 (_relocate): Use ELF32_R_TYPE() instead of ELFW(R_TYPE)().
515 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (dummy): Add a dummy relocation entry.
517 2000-10-26 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
519 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Mention .rela.sdata.
521 * Make.defaults (CFLAGS): Remove -nostdinc flags so we can pick
522 up the C compiler's stdarg.h.
524 * inc/stdarg.h: Remove this file. It's not correct for gcc (nor
525 most other optimizing compilers).
527 2000-10-10 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
529 * cleaned up the error message and printing of those.
530 * added support to load the FPSWA from a file in case support is not
531 present in the firmware already
532 * fixed split_args() to do the right thing when you have leading spaces
534 * changed the argify() function to rely on \0 instead of LoadOptionSize
535 as the field seems to be broken with current firmware
536 * bumped version to 1.0
538 2000-10-04 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
540 * gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S: Reserve space for up to 750 function descriptors.
542 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Add .sdata section for small data and
543 put __gp in the "middle" of it.
545 * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia64.S (_start): Use movl/add to load
546 gp-relative addresses that could be out of the range of the addl
548 * gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S (_relocate): Ditto.
550 * apps/Makefile: Remove standard rules and include Make.rules instead.
551 * lilo/Makefile: Ditto.
553 * Make.rules: New file.
555 2000-08-04 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
556 * released version 0.9
557 * incorporated ACPI changes for Asuza by NEC < kouchi@hpc.bs1.fc.nec.co.jp>
558 * added support for initrd (-i option) original ELI code from Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com>)
560 * got rid of #ifdef LILO_DEBUG and uses macro instead
561 * fix a few extra memory leaks in create_boot_params()
562 * added exit capability just before starting the kernel
564 2000-06-22 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
566 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Add .srodata, .ctors, .IA64.unwind,
567 .IA64.unwind_info to .data section and .rela.ctors to .rela
570 2000-04-03 David Mosberger <davidm@hpl.hp.com>
572 * lilo/lilo.c (LILO_VERSION): Up version number to 0.9.
574 * gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Include .IA_64.unwind and
575 .IA_64.unwind_info in .data segment to avoid EFI load error
576 "ImageAddress: pointer outside of image" error due to the .dynsym
577 relocations against these sections.
579 * ChangeLog: Moved from lilo/ChangeLogs.
581 * gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S: fixed typo: .space directive had constant
582 100 hardcoded instead of using MAX_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTORS
585 Fri Mar 17 15:19:18 PST 2000 Stephane Eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com>
588 * replace the getopt.c with new version free with better license
589 * created a documentation file
590 * fix a couple of memory leaks
592 * created a separate directory for lilo in the gnu-efi package.
593 * added support for the BOOT_IMAGE argument to kernel
594 * default is to build natively now
