e631c74b1d Pass the "?" command output through the pager.
(This doesn't quite work as this command is overridden by Forth,
and some Forth commands are appended to the output.)

cf0c439f9d Remove a pre-tier-1 kernel compatability helper. This means a 6.x loader
won't boot a pre-5.1 development amd64 kernel.  That's no big loss though.

923a1dc3d1 Add a loader menu option to set hint.atkbd.0.flags=0x1 which allows USB
keyboards to work if no PS/2 keyboard is attached.  The position in the
menu was chosen to avoid moving option 6 (loader prompt).  This should
be a no-op on non-i386/amd64 machines.

ab737c5f07 Setting "kernel" to an absolute path is a bad idea because
after loading such a kernel, "module_path" will be set to
an insane value.  Fixed example by providing an equivalent
setting.  For the record, when automatically loading a
kernel (commands "boot" and "boot-conf"), the following is
tried, in this order:

	path=/boot/${kernel} file=${bootfile}
	path=/boot/${kernel} file=${kernel}
	path=${kernel} file=${bootfile}
	path=${kernel} file=${kernel}
	path=${module_path} file=${kernel}

9ba97f7322 Remove the dependency on the Intel EFI headers in sys/boot/efi. Instead
use <machine/efi.h> for the necessary definitions. This makes the EFI
code in sys/boot/efi totally unused, except for pure EFI loaders. As
such, maintenance and porting (to IA-32) of the EFI code is made as easy
as possible.

ca9b2364c3 A long, long time ago in a CVS branch far away (specifically, HEAD prior
to 4.0 and RELENG_3), the BTX mini-kernel used paging rather than flat
mode and clients were limited to a virtual address space of 16 megabytes.
Because of this limitation, boot2 silently masked all physical addresses
in any binaries it loaded so that they were always loaded into the first
16 Meg.  Since BTX no longer has this limitation (and hasn't for a long
time), remove the masking from boot2.  This allows boot2 to load kernels
larger than about 12 to 14 meg (12 for non-PAE, 14 for PAE).

941fdb393b Add the loader side of support for preloading ELF relocatable object
format modules, which are currently only used on the amd64 platform.
This initial implementation just parses enough of the module to
allow it to extract dependencies and load all the bits into the
right place in memory, so the kernel must still do the full relocation
and linking. The details of the loaded sections are passed to the
kernel by supplying a copy of the ELF section header table as module
metadata with the MODINFOMD_SHDR tag.

45b8d7c46e Separate out the ELF relocation code from the ELF loader, and add
better relocation support for the amd64 and i386 platforms. This
should not result in any change in functionality, but moves a step
towards supporting the relocatable object file modules on amd64.

The same hack/trick as load_elf*.c uses is used here to simultaneously
support both elf32 and elf64 on amd64 and i386.
