similar to: [PATCH 00/12] Multidisk support

This patch will improve the flow at disk_write_sectors and disk_read_sectors significantly, but it *will* introduce bugs if either of the above functions gets called before disk_get_params. --- com32/include/syslinux/disk.h | 21 +++++ com32/lib/syslinux/disk.c | 170 +++++++++++++++++++++-------------------- 2 files changed, 108 insertions(+), 83 deletions(-) diff --git

This patch will improve the flow at disk_write_sectors and disk_read_sectors. It does that by creating a table of values respective to the operation. Besides, read and write operations are pretty similar to each other, so I redesigned the routines to avoid duplication.

eparam will only be used if EBIOS is available on the underlying disk.

So last week I was wondering if XFS was still working -- even with its last on-disk structure changes -- and it _suprisingly_ worked as expected. Right, now I can finally get rid of GRUB and use Syslinux to boot my Linux on EFI from a rootfs with xfs. Shit, I have two partitions (the first one being the required ESP) so there is no way to access the other partitions since because Syslinux does not

Here is a partial patch that I'm using to illustrate a few questions that I have. Looking at the gpllib write_sectors (com32/gpllib/disk/write.c) it looks like the allocated size is wrong; size is in sectors so we should adjust the alloc/memcpy by size*SECTOR. Also, comparing core/diskio.c it looks like the registers aren't even setup right. In the patch below I put an #if 0 around the

This is a bit updated set of chain.c32 changes that simplifies a few things (and in partiter part), fixes few minor issues and adds a few new features. Details are in the following commits, below is the summary and pull details at the end. Shao - any chance to peek over them ? Most of those are relatively simple changes and well tested, though of course something might have slipped my attention.

This small set fixes few bugs, improves gpt handling (under buggy conditions) and implements strict flag with more fine grained control which should fix issues with sanity checks against disk sizes. If this set is allright I'd want to do what I mentioned in older discussion with Ady - backport missing patches from 6.x to 5.x and 4.x so all versions have up to date chain version. Michal

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

Hi Peter, Please pull the following changes. Paulo, I had to revert your "pxe: resolve names via DNS from protected-mode code" change because dns_resolv() is only implemented for PXELINUX and causes undefined symbol references for ISOLINUX, etc. Feel free to make the change again on top of the revert. The following changes since commit e7bd19def830e8341b1a100956345f1028740b9e:

From: Raphael S. Carvalho <raphael.scarv at gmail.com> My commit 09f4ac33 broke 'com32/lib/syslinux/disk.c' __lowmem doesn't work for declarations outside the core. Using __lowmem outside the core wouldn't have the desired effect, then lmalloc must be used instead to store dapa into the correct section (".lowmem"). Reported-by: Dark Raven <drdarkraven at

From: Raphael S. Carvalho <raphael.scarv at gmail.com> This patch finishes the MultiFS support. init_multifs gets called in the main (startup) function of ldlinux.c32, so MultiFS will be initialized automatically. init_multifs calls enable_multifs (lives in the core) to hook get_fs_info. Subsequent accesses will callback the get_fs_info living in ldlinux.c32. Signed-off-by: Raphael S.

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> Since we can't use __intcall() for EFI, and since we can now have the ELF module code resolve all our symbols at runtime, we should delete as many references to __intcall() as possible and just access the symbols directly. The most interesting patch is the support for weak symbols. We need to be able to reference derivative-specific

Does the COMBOOT stuff with 2.04 work correctly with function calls? or does one need to write it as one huge function? If memory serves me correctly, there was some problem if hello.c was modified to include additional functions, in an earlier version. - Murali

Hi, Hopefully you someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong. First, the code. I placed this at the bottom of the main loop in com32/modules/disk.c as a simple test of writing to the disk: printf(" Host bus: %s, Interface type: %s\n\n", d->edd_params.host_bus_type, d->edd_params.interface_type); zero_buf = calloc(1, d->edd_params.bytes_per_sector); for(int
