I'll start off by saying that I'm very new to com32, but I'm having difficulty linking the libcom32.a library into an executable. I'm using syslinux-3.11, I copied the libcom32.a library into my directory and here's the output of my attmept: #ld com32io.o dtimenu.o syslnx.o tui.o --library-path=./ -lcom32 .//libcom32.a(entry.o)(.init+0x42): In function `_start':

Hello, Would com32 modules be considered the same as an ordinary Linux executable with respect to LGPL? That is, as long as you released any changes to syslinux/com32 libs would you also have to release the source to the com32 module? Thanks for your time.

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

Hi, I need to read some data from a specific device communicating through the serial link. I am a little confused about the different ways to communicate through the serial link with the syslinux libc from a com32 module. There are some functions in syslinux libc to use a serial device, but they all seem related to a serial console. Is there a way to read from a com port not related to a serial

Good day, Tal. Perhaps if you describe a little bit more about the rationale behind this single-file requirement, someone might be able to make an alternative suggestion that you haven't thought of. The BIOS- and disk-based Syslinux bootstrapping actually often has a filesystem-specific piece of code that lives in the filesystem's meta-data, as well as the primary file and COMBOOT32

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> This series includes a patch (PATCH 1/6) that I sent previously but I thought it was worth sending it again since the rest of the series depends on it, and it also gives a bit of context. These cleanups make it simpler to do the big switchover to ELF modules on the elflink branch because the libraries in $LIBS are now contained in one

Hello everyone, Since I have some some adventures in UEFI PXE booting ahead I tried to go with the latest syslinux development snapshot in this case 5.10pre1. But I already fail when booting from CD with Failed to load COM32 file .c32 I am a bit perplex since no name of COM32 files is given. I am trying to trace down the issue as good as I can. COM32 files present are:

This just came up on IRC, 15:01 < chithead> the first one that fails is ld -m elf_i386 -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -Bsymbolic -pie -E --hash-style=gnu -T /var/tmp/portage/sys-boot/syslinux-6.01_pre5/work/syslinux-6.01-pre5/core/i386/syslinux.ld -M -o ldlinux.elf ldlinux.o \ 15:01 < chithead> --start-group libcom32.a --whole-archive

I'm not seeing how to set this path option? Here is what I get using vesamenu.c32 as an example when moved to a directory outside of the build. The current syslinux 4.06 has all the files in the same directory which is at the root of the cd. ldd vesamenu.c32 linux-gate.so.1 => (0xb77c5000) ../../com32/libutil/libutil_com.c32 => not found ../../com32/lib/libcom32.c32 => not found

I get a link error when trying to call malloc from libcom32. I tried to simplify the case by adding the malloc to the sample hello.c in the modules directory, but I still get the following error: ld -m elf_i386 -T ../lib/com32.ld -o hello.elf hello.o ../libutil/libutil_com.a ../lib/libcom32.a /usr/lib64/gcc-lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.3/32/libgcc.a ../lib/libcom32.a(malloc.o)(.text+0x13): In

Peter- Can you please clarify the license of libcom32, from the samples directory in syslinux? I am attempting to create .c32 files that are not encumbered by the GPL, but the conio.c file states that is is covered by the GPL. So far, I have resisted linking with libcom32.a, but is it really your intent to license the library code under GPL, and not something more like the LGPL?

I just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.73-pre3. The only significant difference over -pre2 was changing MEMDISK to use "safeint" by default. -hpa

The patch was broken. I missed the new core/path.c file. My bad.
