r247216:
Add the ability for a device to have an "alias" handle.
r247379:
Fix network device registration.
r247380:
Adjust our load device when we boot from CD under UEFI.
The process for booting from a CD under UEFI involves adding a FAT
filesystem containing your loader code as an El Torito boot image.
When UEFI detects this, it provides a block IO instance that points
at the FAT filesystem as a child of the device that represents the CD
itself. The problem being that the CD device is flagged as a "raw
device" while the boot image is flagged as a "logical partition".
The existing EFI partition code only looks for logical partitions and
so the CD filesystem was rendered invisible.
To fix this, check the type of each block IO device. If it's found to
be a CD, and thus an El Torito boot image, look up its parent device
and add that instead so that the loader will then load the kernel from
the CD filesystem. This is done by using the handle for the boot
filesystem as an alias.
Something similar to this will be required for booting from other media
as well as the loader will live in the EFI system partition, not on the
partition containing the kernel.
r247381:
Remove a scatalogical debug printf that crept in.
1. Make libefi portable by removing ia64 specific code and build
it on i386 and amd64 by default to prevent regressions. These
changes include fixes and improvements over previous code to
establish or improve APIs where none existed or when the amount
of kluging was unacceptably high.
2. Increase the amount of sharing between the efi and ski loaders
to improve maintainability of the loaders and simplify making
changes to the loader-kernel handshaking in the future.
The version of the efi and ski loaders are now both changed to 1.2
as user visible improvements and changes have been made.
