a boot option. When the timer expires the machine is rebooted.
Disable the watchdog timer for 2 reasons:
o We're an interactive program. We cannot guarantee that we've
booted the kernel in the time available to us. There have been
situations where netbooting the right kernel took 2 tries and
more time than given. Not to speak of the normal behaviour to
have the loader sitting at the prompt while the user is off
doing other things (such as figuring out what to type next ;-)
o We may not boot a kernel at all. We may exit as the result of
the user typing quit (assuming it took less than 5 minutes to
type it :-). It is documented that loaders should have disabled
the watchdog timer if they return to the boot manager. Not doing
so would cause a reboot while in the boot manager. This appears
to be harmless, besides of course the actual reboot.

the signaled state of the apropriate event. As a side-effect of
checking the event, it's signaled state is cleared if it was set.
In efi_cons_getchar we used to wait for the apropriate event to be
signaled before reading a character. This however does not work if
we poll before reading the characteri, such as during autoboot. On
a more compliant EFI implementation this resulted in the behaviour
that hitting a key during autoboot would stop the countdown, but
would then wait for a new character to arrive instead of reading
the already pending key that stopped the countdown.
The correct behaviour for efi_cons_getchar is to try to read a key
and if none is pending, to wait for the apropriate event to signal
the arrival of a new key.
Note that with the previous behaviour, the second key would determine
how the autoboot was interrupted. This would indicate that the first
key got lost. This indicates that EFI does not necessarily maintain
a queue of pending keys. FWIW...

Previous kernels unwantingly depended on this mapping, but as
of version 1.123 of src/sys/ia64/ia64/machdep.c this dependency
has been removed. Consequently, one has to update the kernel
before updating the loader. The documented/recommended upgrade
will suffice in this case.
Due to a visible (from the kernels point of view) change in
behaviour, bump the loader version number from 0.3 to 1.0.

the old 8-bit fs_old_flags to the new location the first time that the
filesystem is mounted by a new kernel. One of the unused flags in
fs_old_flags is used to indicate that the flags have been moved.
Leave the fs_old_flags word intact so that it will work properly if
used on an old kernel.
Change the fs_sblockloc superblock location field to be in units
of bytes instead of in units of filesystem fragments. The old units
did not work properly when the fragment size exceeeded the superblock
size (8192). Update old fs_sblockloc values at the same time that
the flags are moved.

At the front is btxldr, in the middle is BTX itself (our mini-kernel), and
then the 'client' (loader.bin) which is the actual loader itself. boot2
just executes a raw ELF or a.out binary with the only setup provided being
that a bootinfo structure is passed on the stack. Now, since loader.bin
is a BTX client, the loader needs to be able to locate a BTX kernel for
the client to execute in the context. Thus, just like pxelder, btxldr
uses the a.out header on the loader binary to find the BTX kernel stored
in the loader and set it up. It does _not_ just reuse the BTX kernel
that boot2 invoked it with. This is because it can't assume that it will
_have_ a "spare" BTX kernel lying around. For example, when cdboot
loads the loader there isn't an existing BTX kernel. In fact, cdboot
will only work with an a.out loader as well since it also "borrows" the
BTX kernel in the loader binary (which it finds by parsing the a.out
header) just as pxeldr does. The only difference between cdboot and
pxeldr is where they get /boot/loader from.
If we wanted to make /boot/loader be an actual ELF binary we would need
to change the following utilites to handle that (and they all have to be
able to handle locating the BTX kernel inside of an ELF binary somehow):
- btxldr
- pxeldr
- cdboot
If we didn't want to require a flag day but make the transition smooth
then we need to be able to support both a.out and ELF versions of
/boot/loader which isn't exactly trivial since all three of these utilities
are written in assembly.

this was quite broken, it never was updated for metadata support.
The a.out kld file support was never really used, as it wasn't necessary.
You could always load elf kld's, even in an a.out kernel.

Bug#1: The GetStatus() function returns radically different pointers that
do not match any packets we transmitted. I think it might be pointing to
a copy of the packet or something. Since we do not transmit more than
one packet at a time, just wait for "anything".
Bug#2: The Receive() function takes a pointer and a length. However, it
either ignores the length or otherwise does bad things and writes outside
of ptr[0] through ptr[len-1]. This is bad and causes massive stack
corruption for us since we are receiving packets into small buffers on
the stack. Instead, Receive() into a large enough buffer and bcopy the
data to the requested area.

filesystem expands the inode to 256 bytes to make space for 64-bit
block pointers. It also adds a file-creation time field, an ability
to use jumbo blocks per inode to allow extent like pointer density,
and space for extended attributes (up to twice the filesystem block
size worth of attributes, e.g., on a 16K filesystem, there is space
for 32K of attributes). UFS2 fully supports and runs existing UFS1
filesystems. New filesystems built using newfs can be built in either
UFS1 or UFS2 format using the -O option. In this commit UFS1 is
the default format, so if you want to build UFS2 format filesystems,
you must specify -O 2. This default will be changed to UFS2 when
UFS2 proves itself to be stable. In this commit the boot code for
reading UFS2 filesystems is not compiled (see /sys/boot/common/ufsread.c)
as there is insufficient space in the boot block. Once the size of the
boot block is increased, this code can be defined.
Things to note: the definition of SBSIZE has changed to SBLOCKSIZE.
The header file <ufs/ufs/dinode.h> must be included before
<ufs/ffs/fs.h> so as to get the definitions of ufs2_daddr_t and

this is called /boot/nextboot.conf. This file is required to have it's first
line be nextboot_enable="YES" for it to be read. Also, this file is
rewritten by the loader to nextboot_enable="NO"<space> after it is read.
This makes it so the file is read exactly once. Finally, the nextboot.conf
is removed shortly after the filesystems are mounted r/w.
Caution should be taken as you can shoot yourself in the foot. This is only

the nextboot.conf file for you. It is coming shortly.

Removed -fno-align-foo since it is implied by -Os. Previous commit
messages seem to have overstated the new alignment bugs in gcc. The
only case that affects boot2 is that -fno-align-functions (or
equivalently -falign-functions=1) actually gives -falign-functions=2.
This is caused by FUNCTION_BOUNDARY being 2 (bytes) instead of 1.
The default case where the optimization level is 1 and no alignment
options are given is more broken. All alignments are minimal, modulo
the bug in FUNCTION_BOUNDARY. This is caused by toplev.c setting
defaults too early.
Some hacks in previous commits ar not needed now, but may as well be
kept until gcc is fixed. The previous on in the Makefile saved 96

Due to the prom not having nodes for each disk, but a catch-all one,
we have to iterate over each device, trying to open it to determine
whether it is actually present.
Since probing this way takese some time (and spews some spurious

device we were booted from.
Implement lazy device probing, and correct slice/partiniton

- Axe -fdata-sections as turning it on or off makes no difference. If
it did make a difference it would serve to bloat boot2 even further with
extra padding.
- Axe -fforce-addr. This gets us 32 bytes so we are down to only being
64-bytes over.
We still can't compile this with gcc 3.1. The problem seems to be that
the -fno-align-foo options don't actually work. Comparing the new and
old output it turns out that gcc is 4-byte padding all the functions and
labels and what not despite the passed in arguments thus adding the
unfortunate bloat to boot2.
