- Similar to the hack for bootinfo32.c in userboot, define
_MACHINE_ELF_WANT_32BIT in the load_elf32 file handlers in userboot.
This allows userboot to load 32-bit kernels and modules.
- Copy the SMAP generation code out of bootinfo64.c and into its own
file so it can be shared with bootinfo32.c to pass an SMAP to the i386
kernel.
- Use uint32_t instead of u_long when aligning module metadata in
bootinfo32.c in userboot, as otherwise the metadata used 64-bit
alignment which corrupted the layout.
- Populate the basemem and extmem members of the bootinfo struct passed
to 32-bit kernels.
- Fix the 32-bit stack in userboot to start at the top of the stack
instead of the bottom so that there is room to grow before the
kernel switches to its own stack.
- Push a fake return address onto the 32-bit stack in addition to the
arguments normally passed to exec() in the loader. This return
address is needed to convince recover_bootinfo() in the 32-bit
locore code that it is being invoked from a "new" boot block.
- Add a routine to libvmmapi to setup a 32-bit flat mode register state
including a GDT and TSS that is able to start the i386 kernel and
update bhyveload to use it when booting an i386 kernel.
- Use the guest register state to determine the CPU's current instruction
mode (32-bit vs 64-bit) and paging mode (flat, 32-bit, PAE, or long
mode) in the instruction emulation code. Update the gla2gpa() routine
used when fetching instructions to handle flat mode, 32-bit paging, and
PAE paging in addition to long mode paging. Don't look for a REX
prefix when the CPU is in 32-bit mode, and use the detected mode to
enable the existing 32-bit mode code when decoding the mod r/m byte.

things over floppy size limits, I can exclude it for release builds or
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
metadata startup, just like sparc64 and powerpc. Much of the
infrastructure to support this was adapted from sparc64.
