bootloader. Implement the following routines:
pcibios-device-count count the number of instances of a devid
pcibios-read-config read pci config space
pcibios-write-config write pci config space
pcibios-find-devclass find the nth device with a given devclass
pcibios-find-device find the nth device with a given devid
pcibios-locator convert bus device function ti pcibios locator
These commands are thin wrappers over their PCI BIOS 2.1 counterparts. More
informaiton, such as it is, can be found in the standard.
Export a nunmber of pcibios.X variables into the environment to report
what the PCI IDENTIFY command returned.
Also implmenet a new command line primitive (pci-device-count), but don't
include it by default just yet, since it depends on the recently added
words and any errors here can render a system unbootable.
This is intended to allow the boot loader to do special things based
on the hardware it finds. This could be have special settings that are
optimized for the specific cards, or even loading special drivers. It
goes without saying that writing to pci config space should not be
done without a just cause and a sound mind.

u-boot env into the loader(8) env (which also gets them into the kernel
env). You can import selected variables or the whole environment. Each
u-boot var=value becomes uboot.var=value in the loader env. You can also
use 'ubenv show' to display uboot vars without importing them.
1. 50+% of NO_PIE use is fixed by adding -fPIC to INTERNALLIB and other
build-only utility libraries.
2. Another 40% is fixed by generating _pic.a variants of various libraries.
3. Some of the NO_PIE use is a bit absurd as it is disabling PIE (and ASLR)
where it never would work anyhow, such as csu or loader. This suggests
there may be better ways of adding support to the tree. Many of these
cases can be fixed such that -fPIE will work but there is really no
reason to have it in those cases.
4. Some of the uses are working around hacks done to some Makefiles that are
really building libraries but have been using bsd.prog.mk because the code
is cleaner. Had they been using bsd.lib.mk then NO_PIE would not have
been needed.
We likely do want to enable PIE by default (opt-out) for non-tree consumers
(such as ports). For in-tree though we probably want to only enable PIE
(opt-in) for common attack targets such as remote service daemons and setuid
utilities. This is also a great performance compromise since ASLR is expected
to reduce performance. As such it does not make sense to enable it in all
utilities such as ls(1) that have little benefit to having it enabled.

like EX and SRX. The install command uses pkgfs to extract a kernel,
zero or more modules and a root file system from the specified package
and boots the kernel. The name of the kernel, the list of modules and
the name of the root file system can be specified by putting a
file called "metatags in the package.
The package to use is given by an URL. The schemes supported are
tftp and file. For the file scheme, the disk is currently hardcoded
but that should really look for the package on all devices and
partititions.

compressed tarball, aka package. The file system assumes that the
files are layed-out in the same order as needed to allow for the
package to be streamed. As such, it does not read an entire package
into memory first.
Some properties of the file system:
o Files that start with '+' are silently skipped. These are found
in FreeBSD package files.
o Files smaller than or equal to 4KB will be cached in memory and
as such allow for some flexibility in accessing files out of
order.
o Files with the .tgz suffix are assumed to be (sub-)packages and
signal the end for a directory scan.

place for the NFS-based PXE loader. Information like rootpath
or rootip aren't that useful for TFTP and the gateway IP is
typically already printed by the firmware.
2. Only set boot.nfsroot.* environment variables for NFS. This
makes it possible for the OS to work either way by checking
for the presence or absence of environment variables.
3. Set boot.netif.server when using TFTP so that the OS can fetch
files as well. A typical use case for this is network-based
installations with the installation process implemented on
top of FreeBSD.
4. The pxelinux loader has a set of alternative names it tries
for configuration files. Make it easier to do something
similar in Forth by providing the IP address as a 32-bit hex
number in the pxeboot.ip variable and the MAC address with
dashes in the pxeboot.hwaddr environment variable.

particular, allow loaders to define the name of the RC script the
interpreter needs to use. Use this new-found control to have the
PXE loader (when compiled with TFTP support and not NFS support)
read from ${bootfile}.4th, where ${bootfile} is the name of the
file fetched by the PXE firmware.
The normal startup process involves reading the following files:
1. /boot/boot.4th
2. /boot/loader.rc or alternatively /boot/boot.conf
When these come from a FreeBSD-defined file system, this is all
good. But when we boot over the network, subdirectories and fixed
file names are often painful to administrators and there's really
no way for them to change the behaviour of the loader.

This also fixes a few minor violations of the SD protocol, such as running
the bus at high speed during the card identification sequence.
The sdcard_init() routine now probes for SDHC cards so that later read
requests can make needed adjustments between block and byte offsets based
on card type.
There is a new MCI_readblocks() function that takes block number and block
count parameters instead of byte-offset values. Using this routine, boot
loader code can load a kernel from any location on an SDHC or standard SD.
The old MCI_read() interface remains unchanged so that existing customized
boot loader code will still keep working without changes. Using this
routine, boot loaders can load a kernel from anywhere in the first 4GB of
an SDHC card (or of course any location on a standard SD card).
A new sdcard_use4wire() routine allows boot loaders to request 4-bit
transfers; it should be called after sdcard_init(). The sdcard_init()
routine no longer assumes the hardware is 4-wire capable and by default
sets things up for 1-bit transfers. (4-wire mode is unreliable on
at91rm9200, works on later SoCs.)

This requires changing the reference clock speed. Since we still don't
have a general clock API that lets a SoC-independant driver manipulate its
own clocks, this change includes a weak reference to a routine named
cgem_set_ref_clk(). The default implementation is a no-op; SoC-specific
code can provide an implementation that actually changes the speed.

building with clang, but preserves the ability to build with serial if
you really want. We now have 92 bytes free (412 with the in-tree gcc).
