3851401454 Now I see the error of my ways.
Previous revision of this file changed the "boot" commands to take
no arguments from the stack. This is only valid in the case where
a kernel has not been loaded. In that case, load_kernel_and_modules
will be called, which takes a list of arguments from the stack.

When a kernel is presently loaded, though, the list of arguments must
be passed to the boot command, which was the behaviour before the last
revision.

Fix things for both cases.

7b9e034490 Both boot and boot-conf were using a different algorithm from the one
used by start to find the kernel. Fix this.

Also, boot would proceed immediately in the absence of a path as
argument. Check first if a kernel has already been loaded, and, if
not, fall back to load kernel&modules behavior.

Some further factorizing. I deem this code to be mostly readable by
now! :-)

1cb190742f Factorize, reorganize, and move code around.
The boot-conf and boot code had various bugs, and some of it was big,
ugly, unwieldy, and, sometimes, plain incorrect. I'm just about
completely replaced these ugly parts with something much more manageable.

Minor changes were made to the well-factorized parts of it, to accomodate
the new code.

Of note:

	* make sure boot-conf has the exact same behavior wrt boot order
as start.

	* Correct both boot and boot-conf so they'll work correctly when
compiled in, as they both had some bugs, minor and major.

	* Remove all the crud from loader.4th back into support.4th, for
the first time since boot-conf was first improved. Hurray!

I'm fairly satisfied with the code at this time. Time to see about those
man pages...

23aecb0109 Upon reflection, I decided that bootfile must have priority over kernel
as the kernel name. The one very unfortunate consequence is that kernel
as an absolute path loses the priority. It will only be tried after
/boot/${kernel}/${bootfile}. I'll see what can be done about it later.

88a7f9eb70 First tackle at trying to handle the New Deal on kernels.
Load the first of the following kernels to be found:

${kernel} if ${kernel} is an absolute path
/boot/${kernel}/${kernel}
/boot/${kernel}/${bootfile}
${kernel}/${kernel}
${kernel}/${bootfile}
${kernel}
${bootfile}

The last instance of ${kernel} and ${bootfile} will be treated as a
list of semicolon separated file names, and each will be tried in turn,
from left to right.

Also, for each filename loader(8) will try filename, filename.ko,
filename.gz, filename.ko.gz, in that order, but that's not related
to this code.

This resulted in a major reorganization of the code, and much of what
was accumulating on loader.4th was rightly transfered to support.4th.

The semantics of boot-conf and boot also changed. Both will try to load
a kernel the same as above.

After a kernel was loaded, the variable module_path may get changed. Such
change will happen if the kernel was found with a directory prefix. In
that case, the module path will be set to ${directory};${module_path}.

Next, the modules are loaded as usual.

This is intended so kernel="xyzzy" in /boot/loader.conf will load
/boot/xyzzy/kernel.ko, load system modules from /boot/xyzzy/, and
load third party modules from /boot/modules or /modules. If that doesn't
work, it's a bug.

Also, fix a breakage of "boot" which was recently introduced. Boot without
any arguments would fail. No longer. Also, boot will only unload/reload
if the first argument is a path. If no argument exists or the first
argument is a flag, boot will use whatever is already loaded. I hope this
is POLA. That behavior is markedly different from that of boot-conf, which
will always unload/reload.

The semantics introduced here are experimental. Even if the code works,
we might decide this is not the prefered behavior. If you feel so, send
your feedback. (Yeah, this belongs in a HEADS UP or something, but I've
been working for the past 16 hours on this stuff, so gimme a break.)

80a1a63ef5 Enhance boot-conf.
Now boot-conf can also receive parameters to be passed to the kernel
being booted. The syntax is the same as in the boot command, so one
boots /kernel.OLD in single-user mode by typing:

boot-conf /kernel.OLD -s   instead of
boot-conf -s /kernel.OLD

The syntax still supports use of directory instead of file name, so

boot-conf kernel.OLD -s

may be used to boot /boot/kernel.OLD/kernel.ko in single-user mode.

Notice that if one passes a flag to boot-conf, it will override the
flags set in .conf files, but only for that invocation. If the user
aborts the countdown and tries again without passing any flags, the
flags set in .conf files will be used.

Some factorization was done in the process of enhancing boot-conf,
as it has been growing steadly as features are getting added, becoming
too big for a Forth word. It still could do with more factorization,
as a matter of fact.

Override the builtin "boot" with something based on boot-conf. It will
behave exactly like boot-conf, but booting directly instead of going
through autoboot.

Since we are now pairing kernel and module set in the same directory,
this change to boot makes sense.

ebc9286d61 Strictly speaking, this works. It enumarates the PnP devices, and
load the modules needed according to a file relating module names
(actually, _file_ names, not really modules -- the dependency
stuff is not exported to loader's UI) to PnP IDs.

But it still lacks a number of desired features, and it's too crude
for my tastes. But since I don't have time to work on it, it might
be preferable to make it available to those who might. It's not
installed by default, much less loaded. In fact, it wouldn't even
had a copyright message (who? me? assume responsibility for _this_?),
if the cvs commit hadn't aborted for lack of $FreeBSD$, and I decided
to just cut&paste the stuff from elsewhere.

297c9cab3e Add constructors to crude structure support. Rework some of the
code into a more modular interface, with hidden vocabularies and
such. Remove the need to a lot of ugly initialization.

Also, add a few structure definitions, from stuff used on the C
part of loader. Some of this will disappear, and the crude structure
support will most likely be replaced by full-blown OOP support
already present on FICL, but not installed by default. But it was
getting increasingly inconvenient to keep this separate on my tree,
and I already lost lots of work once because of the hurdles, so
commit this.

Anyway, it makes support.4th more structured, and I'm not proceeding
with the work on it any time soon, unfortunately.

FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader, Revision 0.8
(root@outback.netplex.com.au, Tue Jun 13 23:26:49 PDT 2000)
Loader version 0.3+ required
Aborted!
start not found

Note that the 0.3+ message is from inside the arch-alpha block, not the
i386 block of code.  And even then, 0.8 is higher than 0.3.

This prevents the rest of the loader.conf stuff working. :-/

f71c01cc52 Borrow phk's axe and apply the next stage of config(8)'s evolution.
Use Warner Losh's "hint" driver to decode ascii strings to fill the
resource table at boot time.

config(8) no longer generates an ioconf.c table - ie: the configuration
no longer has to be compiled into the kernel.  You can reconfigure your
isa devices with the likes of this at loader(8) time:
  set hint.ed.0.port=0x320

userconfig will be rewritten to use this style interface one day and will
move to /boot/userconfig.4th or something like that.

It is still possible to statically compile in a set of hints into a kernel
if you do not wish to use loader(8).  See the "hints" directive in GENERIC
as an example.

All device wiring has been moved out of config(8).  There is a set of
helper scripts (see i386/conf/gethints.pl, and the same for alpha and pc98)
that extract the 'at isa? port foo irq bar' from the old files and produces
a hints file.  If you install this file as /boot/device.hints (and update
/boot/defaults/loader.conf - You can do a build/install in sys/boot) then
loader will load it automatically for you.  You can also compile in the
hints directly with:  hints "device.hints"  as well.

There are a few things that I'm not too happy with yet.  Under this scheme,
things like LINT would no longer be useful as "documentation" of settings.
I have renamed this file to 'NOTES' and stored the example hints strings
in it.  However... this is not something that config(8) understands, so
there is a script that extracts the build-specific data from the
documentation file (NOTES) to produce a LINT that can be config'ed and
built.  A stack of man4 pages will need updating. :-/

Also, since there is no longer a difference between 'device' and
'pseudo-device' I collapsed the two together, and the resulting 'device'
takes a 'number of units' for devices that still have it statically
allocated.  eg:  'device fe 4' will compile the fe driver with NFE set
to 4.  You can then set hints for 4 units (0 - 3).  Also note that
'device fe0' will be interpreted as "zero units of 'fe'" which would be
bad, so there is a config warning for this.  This is only needed for
old drivers that still have static limits on numbers of units.
All the statically limited drivers that I could find were marked.

Please exercise EXTREME CAUTION when transitioning!
