From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> This series fixes some bugs and switches the elflink branch to be entirely ELF modules. It applies on top of, http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2011-April/016369.html The deletions in the diff stat below are mainly from deleting com32/elflink/modules (finally!). Now there should be no duplicate code because we don't need COM32 and

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> The first two patches in this series are fixes for bugs reported by someone in #syslinux. The third makes dmitest.c32 actually wait for user input. If no one has any objections/concerns, I'll pull this into the official elflink branch. Matt Fleming (3): core: Print error message if we don't load ldlinux.c32 Clean up $(GPLLIB) leak

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> Move the MCONFIG files into a mk/ directory and give them more descriptive names. This is purely a cosmetic change to make the 'include' directives a bit more coherent by making it obvious exactly which MCONFIG file we're including. For example, in com32/lua/src/Makefile we exchange the line, include ../../MCONFIG for the

When we add -ffreestanding the compiler won't get to inline this any more.

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> The following patch series is available at, git://git.zytor.com/users/mfleming/syslinux.git elflink All patches are against the 'elflink' branch. This series fixes a few serious bugs and some behavioural incompatibilities with the 4.x series. Matt Fleming (19): ldlinux: Initialise 'p' before using it. ldlinux: Parse

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> Don't link against libmenu.a, it no longer exists as it was removed in commit 74518b8b691c ("elflink: Make ELF the default object format"). This fixes the following build error, make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../cmenu/libmenu/libmenu.a', needed by `hdt.c32'. Stop. Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming

I'm seeing some sporadic build failures with 'make -j4'. The failures are: make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'hello.c32', needed by 'all'. Stop. I've only seen the failures with com32/samples/hello.c32 and com32/rosh/rosh.c32. I'm not a make expert, but I think it's due to missing dependencies. This patch seems to fix my failures, but I'm

1) code split and move Iterator related functionality is yanked from chain.c and moved to iterator.{c,h}. Both are moved to com32/chain and this way chain.c is ready for further splitting. Alternatively, partiter could be moved to com32/lib at any time in the future. It's potentially useful for other modules (e.g. if someone wanted to code partition dumper or editor). 2) Iterator updates

I tend to use the same tool-chain across various hosts so I made this very simple patch that allows you to pass the cross-compiler name to make ( e.g. make CROSS_COMPILE=i686-nptl-linux-gnu-). I'm not sure if patches should be attached or just pasted inline so I did both this time. BTW, it's relative to syslinux 4 but the same changes work with syslinux 3 although the patch won't

Hello, I poked a little bit to extract the list of modules dependencies in Syslinux v6 (see below). I have attached a bash script that generate a nice table from the tarball. The output can either be an ASCII table, or wiki markup, typically for the page Library_modules[1]. I am not in the wiki Editor group, so I can't put that in the wiki. anyway, here's an updated dependency tree for

It has been observed that binaries contents are depending on the order of linked objects. This order is caused by GNU make's wildcard function and the position of sources on filesystem. This change tries to prevent this kind of randomness. Also consider building using -j1 flag to make it even more reproductible. Change-Id: Ie8eee7f336e6f1fa2863c4150d967afd15519f1d Bug:

This patch adds to the core EFI image booting capabilities. It was tested on VMware EFI clients and HP Elitebook EFI notebooks, only on PXE environments but it should work on non-PXE scenarios as well. Feedback appreciated.

I think the Syslinux 5.00 branch is now at the point where I believe it it is feature complete and should be able to replace the main Syslinux branch. As such, it is important that we get wider testing, and especially that people let us know if and where it breaks. As of right now, there aren't any known bugs...

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> Here are the patches that I've got queued up based on the very helpful feedback I received from people testing Syslinux 5.00-pre9. Unless anyone has any concerns these will make it into Syslinux 5.00-pre10. Matt Fleming (9): pxe: Don't call open_config() from the pxe core ldlinux: Print a warning if no config file is found

From: Sylvain Gault <sylvain.gault at gmail.com> These few patches contain a few improvement about the Makefiles for EFI. Mainly, to rebuild the files when needed, and only when needed. The three shell scripts efi/{check,build,clean}-gnu-efi.sh disappeared and are now integrated as makefile recipes. You'll notice an argument ARFLAGS=rvU to the recursive make calls to gnu-efi. This is
