Implement a subset of the multiboot specification in order to boot Xen
and a FreeBSD Dom0 from the FreeBSD bootloader. This multiboot
implementation is tailored to boot Xen and FreeBSD Dom0, and it will
most surely fail to boot any other multiboot compilant kernel.
In order to detect and boot the Xen microkernel, two new file formats
are added to the bootloader, multiboot and multiboot_obj. Multiboot
support must be tested before regular ELF support, since Xen is a
multiboot kernel that also uses ELF. After a multiboot kernel is
detected, all the other loaded kernels/modules are parsed by the
multiboot_obj format.
The layout of the loaded objects in memory is the following; first the
Xen kernel is loaded as a 32bit ELF into memory (Xen will switch to
long mode by itself), after that the FreeBSD kernel is loaded as a RAW
file (Xen will parse and load it using it's internal ELF loader), and
finally the metadata and the modules are loaded using the native
FreeBSD way. After everything is loaded we jump into Xen's entry point
using a small trampoline. The order of the multiboot modules passed to
Xen is the following, the first module is the RAW FreeBSD kernel, and
the second module is the metadata and the FreeBSD modules.
Since Xen will relocate the memory position of the second
multiboot module (the one that contains the metadata and native
FreeBSD modules), we need to stash the original modulep address inside
of the metadata itself in order to recalculate its position once
booted. This also means the metadata must come before the loaded
modules, so after loading the FreeBSD kernel a portion of memory is
reserved in order to place the metadata before booting.
In order to tell the loader to boot Xen and then the FreeBSD kernel the
following has to be added to the /boot/loader.conf file:
xen_cmdline="dom0_mem=1024M dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0pvh=1 console=com1,vga"
xen_kernel="/boot/xen"
The first argument contains the command line that will be passed to the Xen
kernel, while the second argument is the path to the Xen kernel itself. This
can also be done manually from the loader command line, by for example
typing the following set of commands:
OK unload
OK load /boot/xen dom0_mem=1024M dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0pvh=1 console=com1,vga
OK load kernel
OK load zfs
OK load if_tap
OK load ...

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.

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

no way for them to change the behaviour of the loader.

Specific revisions of note from projects/uefi:
r247380:
Adjust our load device when we boot from CD under UEFI.
The process for booting from a CD under UEFI involves adding a FAT
filesystem containing your loader code as an El Torito boot image.
When UEFI detects this, it provides a block IO instance that points at
the FAT filesystem as a child of the device that represents the CD
itself. The problem being that the CD device is flagged as a "raw
device" while the boot image is flagged as a "logical partition". The
existing EFI partition code only looks for logical partitions and so
the CD filesystem was rendered invisible.
To fix this, check the type of each block IO device. If it's found to
be a CD, and thus an El Torito boot image, look up its parent device
and add that instead so that the loader will then load the kernel from
the CD filesystem. This is done by using the handle for the boot
filesystem as an alias.
Something similar to this will be required for booting from other
media as well as the loader will live in the EFI system partition, not
on the partition containing the kernel.

r246336:

r246608:
Rework copy routines to ensure we always use memory allocated via EFI.
The previous code assumed it could copy wherever it liked. This is not
the case. The approach taken by this code is pretty ham-fisted in that
it simply allocates a large (32MB) buffer area and stages into that,
then copies the whole area into place when it's time to execute. A more
elegant solution could be used but this works for now.
r247214:
Fix a number of problems preventing proper handover to the kernel.
There were two issues at play here. Firstly, there was nothing
preventing UEFI from placing the loader code above 1GB in RAM. This
meant that when we switched in the page tables the kernel expects to
be running on, we are suddenly unmapped and things no longer work. We
solve this by making our trampoline code not dependent on being at any
given position and simply copying it to a "safe" location before
calling it.
Secondly, UEFI could allocate our stack wherever it wants. As it
happened on my PC, that was right where I was copying the kernel to.
This did not cause happiness. The solution to this was to also switch
to a temporary stack in a safe location before performing the final
copy of the loaded kernel.

The sole purpose of this change is to make sure that sizeof produces

bugs in the BIOSes that properly handle only the canonical values of

The canonical sizes are: 30 for v2, 66 for v3, etc.
Buggy BIOS code probably looks like:
if (input_length > 30) { /* > v2 */
assume that input length is 66 /* assume v3 or later */
}

disk_open(). Very often this is called several times for one file.
This leads to reading partition table metadata for each call. To
reduce the number of disk I/O we have a simple block cache, but it
is very dumb and more than half of I/O operations related to reading
metadata, misses this cache.
Introduce new cache layer to resolve this problem. It is independent
and doesn't need initialization like bcache, and will work by default
for all loaders which use the new DISK API. A successful disk_open()
call to each new disk or partition produces new entry in the cache.
Even more, when disk was already open, now opening of any nested
partitions does not require reading top level partition table.
So, if without this cache, partition table metadata was read around
20-50 times during boot, now it reads only once. This affects the booting
from GPT and MBR from the UFS.
Use of __builtin_constant_p in a function that is only called via
a pointer is a good example of how out-of-date it was.

loader/kernel console without loader recompilation. Also, you can use
PCI-attached port as the console, e.g. Intel AMT serial pseudo-port on
some motherboards based on Q67 chipset.

At work, where we use use KVM+QEMU, we notice that pxeboot is pratically
impossible because of network timeouts. This is due to the fact that the
RTC code makes aggressive jumps.
Two RTC reads does not seem to be sufficient. Change the code to check
for 8 identical RTC values.

- Fix boot0 to check for PXE when using the pre-set setting for the
preferred slice.
- Update boot0cfg to use slice 6 to select PXE. Accept a 'pxe' argument
instead of a number for the 's' option as a way to select PXE as well.
