icc v8 may define __GNUC__ some parts may look strange but are

use a bounce buffer for the actual transfer to avoid crossing a 64k

find an aligned block within that buffer to do the transfer. The check
to see which part of the block we use used the wrong variable for part of
the condition meaning that in certain edge cases we would ask the BIOS to
cross a 64k boundary. The BIOS request would then fail resulting in file

- Move loader relocation up to 0x1C00000. This is in line with OSX bootx,
and allows more space for boot-time modules/ramdisks without conflicting
with OpenFirmware's use of RAM
different kernel to boot with kernel="NAME" would load the kernel and
loader.conf-selected modules from /boot/NAME, but it would not change
module_path. So, for instance, the automatically loaded acpi.ko would come
from /boot/kernel/acpi.ko, *always*.
Mind you, this happened for unassisted boot. If you interrupted, typed
"unload" and then "boot NAME", it would Do The Right Thing.
The source of the problem is the double initialization with beastie's
loader.rc. One would happen inside "start", and would load the kernel. The
next one would happen later in the loader.rc script, resetting module_path.
Because module_path is set to the Right Value by the functions in support.4th
that actually load the kernel, when beastie.4th proceeded to boot
module_path would remain wrong, as the kernel was already loaded.
This can be corrected by removing either initialization, and also by changing
the command used by beastie.4th from "boot" to "boot-conf", which makes sure
you use the right kernel and modules.
I chose to remove the second initialization, since this let you interrupt
(or confirm) boot before beastie even comes up. I avoid also doing the
boot-conf change because that would simply cause the kernel and modules to
be loaded twice (in fact, that was my original patch, until, in writing this
very commit message, I saw the error of my ways).
This commit changes the semantics of module loading when using the beastie
menu. Now it does what one would expect it to, but not what it was actually
doing, so something may break for unusual setups depending on broken
behavior. As our japanese friends so nicely put it, shikata ga nakatta. :-)

something like that. Most of the changes are to get the load_elf.c file
into a seperate elf32_ or elf64_ namespace so that you can have two
ELF loaders present at once. Note that for 64 bit kernels, it actually
starts up the kernel already in 64 bit mode with paging enabled. This
is really easy because we have a known minimum feature set.
Of note is that for amd64, we have to pass in the bios int 15 0xe821
memory map because once in long mode, you absolutely cannot make VM86
calls. amd64 does not use 'struct bootinfo' at all. It is a pure loader

Netgraph places an upper limit on the number of queue items it may allocate.
When there is a large number of netgraph messages travelling through the

and instead add platform, firmware and EFI stubs to the loader.
The net effect of this change is that besides a special console and
disk driver, the kernel has no knowledge of the simulator. This has
the following advantages:
o Simulator support is much harder to break,
o It's easier to make use of more feature complete simulators.
This would only need a change in the simulator specific loader,
o Running SMP kernels within the simulator. Note that ski at this
time does not simulate IPIs, so there's no way to start APs.
The platform, firmware and EFI stubs describe the following hardware:
o 4 CPU Itanium,
o 128 MB RAM within the 4GB address space,
o 64 MB RAM above the 4GB address space.
NOTE: The stubs in the skiloader describe a machine that should in
parts be defined by the simulator. Things like processor interrupt
block and AP wakeup vector cannot be choosen at random because they
require interpretation by the simulator. Currently the simulator is
ignorant of this.
This change introduces an unofficial SSC call SSC_SAL_SET_VECTORS
