...ata, like fs meta data, in a hex style, just like what the 'hexdump -C file' command does. BTW, I'm not sure where should I to put the hexdump function declaration. For now, I just put it in stdio.h, since I think it's a little better than adding a new hexdump.h Signed-off-by: Liu Aleaxander <Aleaxander at gmail.com> --- com32/include/stdio.h | 2 ++ com32/lib/Makefile | 2 +- com32/lib/hexdump.c | 42 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 45 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) create mode 100644 com32/lib/hexdump.c diff --git a/com32/include/stdio...

Synopsis A short description question: A short description of what? myself or the job I am applying to? I thinks it's the latter, so I send this email for confirm. Thanks.

Hi, all. I have submitted my application just now. it's at: http://socghop.appspot.com/student_proposal/show/google/gsoc2009/aleaxander/t123783762744 Thanks. -- regards liu Aleaxander

Congratulations to our 2009 Google Summer of Code Students: Claudiu Mihail Liu Aleaxander Claudiu will work on CLI/parser migration to C, and Liu will work on ext4 support and filesystem migration to C. In combination, this should help get Syslinux into a much more portable state. We're looking forward to your work! -hpa

...e my best to make all the fs C code be clean and readable. Well, it would be great if you take a minute to look at it , and tell me what you think; I'll try to improve it. And, everybody, I would deeply appreciate it if you test & hack it and feedback the results. Thanks! -- regards Liu Aleaxander

...so eax would point to a unknow value, in there, I don't know why it point to "linux". ; and as we can think, it will output "linux" but not the hello_str string. ; so it failed. I don't know why, but I'm think of the gcc flags. any ideas? Thanks! -- regards liu Aleaxander

Hi, I picked up the following patches from Liu Aleaxander that he sent to the mailing list last year. They add some new features to the command line interface code and fix a couple of bugs.

...ut I don't think I can fix it. After this I will change the load_config part to C, then testing it with extlinux (Just change the load_config first, after that, I will try to merge the EXT fs drive written for user space into core). so, this is the current plan. best wishes! -- regards liu Aleaxander

A question was asked on the IRC channel about how to get the address of a real-mode symbol -- or any assembly symbol in general. The answer is that you have to declare it global.

Well, people... I have just merged the "fsc" branch (filesystems in C, largely the work of Liu Aleaxander) and the "elflink" branch (dynamic modules, the work of Claudiu Mihail and Stefan Bucur) together... I haven't tested anything other than it compiling, but it actually does compile. There are almost guaranteed to be issues that I have missed, but well, we get to figure them out. Thi...

Hi all, For now I have done the basic improvements(the dir stuff are broken and removed for now) to LDLINUX.You can check this at here http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/liu/gsoc09_liu.git;a=summary since commit 6747b1ba13fbb6266d7d7fe8f710e8475810610c -- regards Liu Aleaxander

Well, in fact, it's a symlink of gsoc09_liu.git, so the both will work(I guess). hpa, should we move our focus on fsc branch from now? -- regards Liu Aleaxander

All, Here is a RFC patch for converting the highmem.inc to C code, which doesn't touch the core part. please help to review, thanks Thanks, Feng
