     38     if you have a function that takes const arguments and then
     39     e.g. tries to copy StrCmp, gcc will give you warnings about those
     40     calls, and the warnings are right.  These clutter up other things
     41     you might miss that you should be more concered about.
     42 
     43     You could work around it through vigorous typecasting
     44     to non-const types, but why should you have to? All of these
     45     functions are regorously defined as not changing their input
     46     - it is const, and should be marked as such.

     85     Disable MMX and SSE
     86     
     87     GCC 4.8.0 adds some optimizations that will use movups/movaps (and use
     88     %xmm* registers) when they're faster, and of course that won't work at
     89     all since UEFI firmwares aren't guaranteed to initialize the mmx/sse
     90     instructions.
     91     
     92     This will be even more annoying, since most UEFI firmwares don't
     93     initialize the #DE or #UD trap handlers, and your backtrace will be a
     94     random path through uninitialized memory, occasionally including
     95     whatever address the IDT has for #UD, but also addresses like "0x4" and
     96     "0x507" that you don't normally expect to see in your call path.

    103     bug in make 3.82 expand to odd values
    104

    141     Instead of asking developers to explicitly pass the number of

    144     robust code.

    156     fix parameter-passing corruption on x86_64 for >= 5 args
    157     
    158     On x86_64 without HAVE_USE_MS_ABI support, uefi_call_wrapper() is a
    159     variadic function. Parameters >=5 are copied to the stack and, when
    160     passed small immediate values (and possibly other parameters), gcc
    161     would emit a movl instruction before calling uefi_call_wrapper(). As a
    162     result, only the lower 32b of these stack values are significant, the
    163     upper 32b potentially contain garbage. Considering that
    164     uefi_call_wrapper() assumes these arguments are clean 64b values
    165     before calling the efi_callX() trampolines, the latter may be passed
    166     garbage. This makes calling functions like
    167     EFI_PCI_IO_PROTOCOL.Mem.Read()/Write() or BS->OpenProtocol() quite
    168     unreliable.
    169     
    170     This patch fixes this by turning uefi_call_wrapper() into a macro that
    171     allows to expose the efi_callX() trampoline signatures to the callers,
    172     so that gcc can know upfront that it has to pass all arguments to
    173     efi_callX() as clean 64b values (eg. movq for immediates). The
    174     _cast64_efi_callX macros are just here to avoid a gcc warning, they do
    175     nothing otherwise.

    180     Date:   Wed May 15 15:26:16 2013 -0400
    181 
    182     - Removes the ElfW() macro usage from reloc_ia32.c and reloc_x86_64.c. These
    183     macros only exist in link.h on Linux. On FreeBSD, the equivalent macro is
    184     __ElfN(). But the macro usage is redundant. You're only going to compile the
    185     ia32 file for IA32 binaries and the x86_64 file for X64 binaries. If you had
    186     just one file built for both cases, then using the macro might make more
    187     sense.
    188     
    189     - Removes the "#define foo_t efi_foo_t" macros from reloc_ia32.c and
    190     reloc_x86_64.c.
    191     
    192     - Modifies inc/x86_64/efibind.h and inc/ia32/efibind.h to use the new
    193     definitions for uint64_t, int64_t and int8_t. The 64-bit types are now defined
    194     as:
    195     
    196             typedef int __attribute__((__mode__(__DI__)))           int64_t;
    197             typedef unsigned int __attribute__((__mode__(__DI__)))  uint64_t;
    198     
    199     This removes the conflict between the host types dragged in by elf.h and the
    200     type definitions in efibind.h that made the #define foo_t efi_foo_t" hack
    201     necessary. Also, int8_t is now defined as signed char instead of just char
    202     (assuming char == signed char is apparently not good enough).
    203     
    204     - Also modifies these files to use stdint.h instead of stdint-gcc.h. It's
    205     unclear if this is completely correct, but stdint-gcc.h is not present with
    206     all GCC installs, and if you use -std=c99 or later you will force this case to
    207     be hit. This also can break clang, which doesn't have a stdint-gcc.h at all.
    208     
    209     - Removes the #include of <link.h> from reloc_ia32.c and reloc_x86_64.c (since
    210     with the previous changes it's not needed anymore).
    211     
    212     - Places the #include of <elf.h> after #include <efi>/#include <efilib.h> so
    213     that we know the types will always be defined properly, in case you build on a
    214     system where <elf.h> doesn't automatically pull in the right header files to
    215     define all the needed types. (This actually happens on VxWorks. It's harmless
    216     elsewhere. If you don't care about VxWorks, you can leave this out.)
    217     
    218     - Modifies setjmp_ia32.S and setjmp_x86_64.S so to change "function" to
    219     @function. The clang compiler doesn't like the former. Clang and GCC both like
    220     the latter.
    221     
    222     - Modifles Make.defaults so that if ARCH is detected as "amd64," it's changed
    223     to "x86_64." It happens that uname -m on 64-bit FreeBSD reports the former
    224     rather than the latter, which breaks the build. This may also be the case on
    225     some other OSes. There's a way to force uname(1) to return x86_64 as the
    226     machine type, but this way is a little friendlier.
    227     
    228     - Creates gnuefi/elf_ia32_fbsd_efi.lds which specifies the object file type as
    229     elf-ia32-freebsd. This is required for building on FreeBSD/i386, not just
    230     FreeBSD/amd64.
    231     
    232     - Modifies apps/Makefile to always use
    233     $(TOPDIR)/gnuefi/elf_$(ARCH)_fbsd_efi.lds when building on either 32-bit or
    234     64-bit FreeBSD instead of just for the x86_64 case.
    235     
    236     - Changed LDFLAGS in Make.defaults to include --no-undefined. This will cause
    237     linking to fail if there are any unsatisfied symbols when creating foo.so
    238     during any of the app builds, as opposed to just silently succeeding and
    239     producing an unusable binary.
    240     
    241     - Changed CFLAGS to include -ffreestanding -fno-stack-protector -fno-stack-
    242     check. This prevents clang from inserting a call to memset() when compiling
    243     the RtZeroMem() and RtSetMem() routines in lib/runtime/efirtlib.c and guards
    244     against the native compiler in some Linux distros from adding in stack
    245     checking code which relies on libc help that isn't present in the EFI runtime
    246     environment.
    247     
    248     This does the following:
    249     
    250     - Cleans up the ia32 and x86-64 relocation code a bit (tries to break the
    251     dependency between the host ELF headers and the EFI runtime environment)
    252     - Avoids the dependency on stdint-gcc.h which may not always be available
    253     - Allows GNU EFI to build out of the box on both FreeBSD/i386 and
    254     FreeBSD/amd64
    255     - Allows GNU EFI to build out of the box with either GCC or clang on
    256     FreeBSD/i386 and FreeBSD/amd64 9.0 and later.
    257     - Makes things a little easier to port to VxWorks
    258     - Avoids creating un-runable binaries with unresolved symbol definitions
    259     (which can be very confusing to debug)

    274 	  - Previously we were incorrectly passing 3 functions with
    275             the System V ABI to UEFI functions as EFI ABI functions.
    276             Mark them as EFIAPI so the compiler will (in our new
    277             GNU_EFI_USE_MS_ABI world) use the correct ABI.
    278           - These need to be EFIAPI functions because in some cases
    279             they call ST->ConOut->OutputString(), which is an EFIAPI
    280             function. (Which means that previously in cases that 
    281             needed "cdecl", these didn't work right.)
    282           - If the compiler version is new enough, and GNU_EFI_USE_MS_ABI
    283             is defined, use the function attribute ms_abi on everything
    284             defined with "EFIAPI".  Such calls will no longer go through
    285             efi_call*, and as such will be properly type-checked.
    286           - Honor PREFIX and LIBDIR correctly when passed in during the build.
    287           - Add machine type defines for i386, arm/thumb, ia64, ebc, x86_64.
    288           - __STDC_VERSION__ never actually gets defined unless there's a
    289             --std=... line.  So we were accidentally defining lots of c99
    290             types ourself. Since it's 2012, use --std=c11 where appropriate,
    291             and if it's defined and we're using gcc, actually include gcc's
    292             stdint definitions.
    293           - New test application added: route80h. This is a test program
    294             for PciIo.  It routes ioport 80h on ICH10 to PCI. This is also
    295             useful on a very limited set of hardware to enable use of
    296             a port 80h debug card.
    297           - New test applcation added: modelist. This lists video modes

    312             1998 whereas the latest one is from 2004. I suspect Intel changed
    313             the API in order handle 64-bit systems.
    314         * Change from Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras (a] gmail.com>
    315           - The current code seems to screw the stack at certain points.
    316             Multiple people have complained that gummiboot hangs right away,
    317             which is in part the fault of gummiboot, but happens only
    318             because the stack gets screwed. x86_64 EFI already aligns the
    319             stack, so there's no need for so much code to find a proper
    320             alignment, we always need to shift by 8 anyway.
    321         * Change from A. Steinmetz
    322           - https://sourceforge.net/p/gnu-efi/patches/1/
    323             The patch prepares for elilo to support uefi pxe over ipv6
    324             See uefi spec 2.3.1 errata c page 963 as reference.
    325             Verfied on an ASUS Sabertooth X79 BIOS Rev. 2104 system which
    326             is able to do an IPv6 UEFI PXE boot.
    327 	* Release 3.0t
    328 
    329 2012-09-21 Nigel Croxon <nigel.croxon (a] hp.com>
    330 	* Change from Peter Jones <pjones (a] redhat.com>
    331 	  - EFI Block I/O protocol versions 2 and 3 provide more information
    332 	    regarding physical disk layout, including alingment offset at the
    333 	    beginning of the disk ("LowestAlignedLba"), logical block size
    334 	    ("LogicalBlocksPerPhysicalBlock"), and optimal block transfer size
    335 	    ("OptimalTransferLengthGranularity").

    339 	* Change from Matt Fleming <matt.fleming (a] intel.com>
    340 	  -  The .reloc section is now 4096-byte boundary for x86_64.
    341 	     Without this patch the .reloc section will not adhere to
    342 	     the alignment value in the FileAlignment field (512 bytes by
    343 	     default) of the PE/COFF header. This results in a signed
    344 	     executable failing to boot in a secure boot environment.
    345 	* Release 3.0q

    366 	* Changed Makefiles from GPL to BSD.
    367 	* Changes from Peter Jones <pjones (a] redhat.com>

    446 
    447 2001-06-20  Stephane Eranian <eranian (a] hpl.hp.com>
    448 	* release 3.0
    449 	* split gnu-efi package in two different packages: the libary+include+crt and the bootloader.

    451 	* Use -fshort-wchar option for unicode.
    452 	* restructured Makefiles now install under INSTALLROOT.
    453 
    454 2001-04-06  Stephane Eranian <eranian (a] hpl.hp.com>
    455 
    456 	* incorporated patches from David and Michael Johnston at Intel
    457 	  to get the package to compile for IA-32 linux target.
    458 
    459 	* Fixed ELILO to compile for Ia-32 (does not execute yet, though):
    460 	  Makefile and start_kernel() function.
    461 
    462 2001-04-06  Andreas Schwab <schwab (a] suse.de>
    463 
    464 	* Fixed config.c  to

    469 
    470 2001-04-05  Stephane Eranian <eranian (a] hpl.hp.com>
    471 
    472 	* update efi library to latest EFI toolkit 1.02 as distributed
    473 	  by Intel. Fixed header + library files to compile with GCC
    474 
    475 	* merged ELI and LILO (as of gnu-efi-1.1) together, mostly
    476 	  taking the config file feature of ELI.
    477 
    478 	* renamed LILO to ELILO to make the distinction
    479 
    480 	* restructured code to make it easier to understand and maintain
    481 
    482 	* fixed FPSWA driver checking and loading: we try all possible
    483 	  files and let the driver itself figure out if it is the most
    484 	  recent.
    485 	* added support for compression (gzip) but keep support for plain
    486 	  ELF image. ELILO autodetects the format
    487 
    488 	* change the way the kernel is invoked. Now we call it in 
    489 	  physical memory mode. This breaks the dependency between the
    490 	  kernel code and the loader. No more lilo_start.c madness.
    491 
    492 	* changed the way the boot_params are passed. We don't use the 
    493 	  ZERO_PAGE_ADDR trick anymore. Instead we use EFI runtime memory.
    494 	  The address of the structure is passed to the kernel in r28
    495 	  by our convention.
    496 
    497 	* released as gnu-efi-2.0
    498 
    499 2001-04-03  David Mosberger  <davidm (a] hpl.hp.com>
    500 
    501 	* gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c (_relocate): Change return type from "void"
    502 	to "int".  Return error status if relocation fails for some
    503 	reason.
    504 
    505 	* gnuefi/elf_ia32_efi.lds: Drop unneeded ".rel.reloc" section.
    506 
    507 	* gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (_start): Exit if _relocate() returns with
    508 	non-zero exit status.
    509 
    510 	* inc/ia32/efibind.h [__GNUC__]: Force 8-byte alignment for 64-bit
    511 	types as that is what EFI appears to be expecting, despite the
    512 	"#pragma pack()" at the beginning of the file!
    513 
    514 2001-03-29  David Mosberger  <davidm (a] hpl.hp.com>
    515 
    516 	* gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c: Add a couple of defines to work around
    517 	libc/efilib collision on uint64_t et al.
    518 	(_relocate): Use ELF32_R_TYPE() instead of ELFW(R_TYPE)().
    519 
    520 	* gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (dummy): Add a dummy relocation entry.
    521 
    522 2001-03-29  David Mosberger  <davidm (a] hpl.hp.com>
    523 
    524         * gnuefi/reloc_ia32.c: Add a couple of defines to work around
    525         libc/efilib collision on uint64_t et al.
    526         (_relocate): Use ELF32_R_TYPE() instead of ELFW(R_TYPE)().
    527 
    528         * gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia32.S (dummy): Add a dummy relocation entry.
    529 
    530 2000-10-26  David Mosberger  <davidm (a] hpl.hp.com>
    531  
    532  	* gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Mention .rela.sdata.
    533  
    534  	* Make.defaults (CFLAGS): Remove -nostdinc flags so we can pick
    535  	up the C compiler's stdarg.h.
    536  
    537  	* inc/stdarg.h: Remove this file.  It's not correct for gcc (nor
    538  	most other optimizing compilers).
    539 
    540 2000-10-10  Stephane Eranian <eranian (a] hpl.hp.com>
    541 
    542 	* cleaned up the error message and printing of those.
    543 	* added support to load the FPSWA from a file in case support is not
    544 	  present in the firmware already
    545 	* fixed split_args() to do the right thing when you have leading spaces
    546 	  before kernel name
    547 	* changed the argify() function to rely on \0 instead of LoadOptionSize
    548 	  as the field seems to be broken with current firmware
    549 	* bumped version to 1.0
    550 
    551 2000-10-04  David Mosberger  <davidm (a] hpl.hp.com>
    552

    554 
    555 	* gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Add .sdata section for small data and
    556 	put __gp in the "middle" of it.
    557 
    558 	* gnuefi/crt0-efi-ia64.S (_start): Use movl/add to load
    559 	gp-relative addresses that could be out of the range of the addl
    560 	offset.
    561 	* gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S (_relocate): Ditto.

    573 	* got rid of #ifdef LILO_DEBUG and uses macro instead
    574 	* fix a few extra memory leaks in create_boot_params()
    575 	* added exit capability just before starting the kernel
    576 
    577 2000-06-22  David Mosberger  <davidm (a] hpl.hp.com>
    578 
    579 	* gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Add .srodata, .ctors, .IA64.unwind,
    580 	.IA64.unwind_info to .data section and .rela.ctors to .rela

    587 	* gnuefi/elf_ia64_efi.lds: Include .IA_64.unwind and
    588 	.IA_64.unwind_info in .data segment to avoid EFI load error
    589 	"ImageAddress: pointer outside of image" error due to the .dynsym
    590 	relocations against these sections.
    591 
    592 	* ChangeLog: Moved from lilo/ChangeLogs.
    593 
    594 	* gnuefi/reloc_ia64.S: fixed typo: .space directive had constant
    595 	100 hardcoded instead of using MAX_FUNCTION_DESCRIPTORS
    596 	macro. Duh.
    597
