Raw Normal View History

Add a version of the loader which runs under SKI, the HP ia64 simulator. This loader is quite functional and can load and run kernels. The kernels don't quite work right after loading but that should be easily fixable.

NOTE ANY CHANGES YOU MAKE TO THE BOOTBLOCKS HERE. The format of this
file is important. Make sure the current version number is on line 6.
Major rework of the ia64 loaders. The two primary objectives are: 1. Make libefi portable by removing ia64 specific code and build it on i386 and amd64 by default to prevent regressions. These changes include fixes and improvements over previous code to establish or improve APIs where none existed or when the amount of kluging was unacceptably high. 2. Increase the amount of sharing between the efi and ski loaders to improve maintainability of the loaders and simplify making changes to the loader-kernel handshaking in the future. The version of the efi and ski loaders are now both changed to 1.2 as user visible improvements and changes have been made.

1.2: Restructured. Has some user visible differences. Due to code
sharing, has been given the same version number as the EFI
loader.
Pass the address of the bootinfo block to the kernel in register r8. Keep it at the hardwired address for now. Bump the version.
