2022-03-24build: disable fcf-protection on -march=486 -m16Christian Ehrhardt
Some of the roms build with -march=i486 -m16 which is incompatible with -fcf-protection. That in turn is can be set by default, for example in Ubuntu [1]. That causes: cc1: error: ‘-fcf-protection’ is not compatible with this target This won't work on -march=i486 -m16 and no matter if set or not we can override it to "none" if the option is known to the compiler to be able to build reliably.

Add a new option rom for the multiboot loader, using DMA transfers to copy data instead of "rep insb".

2020-12-15build: -no-pie is no functional linker flagChristian Ehrhardt
Recent binutils changes dropping unsupported options [1] caused a build issue in regard to the optionroms. ld -m elf_i386 -T /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/pc-bios/optionrom//flat.lds -no-pie \ -s -o multiboot.img multiboot.o ld.bfd: Error: unable to disambiguate: -no-pie (did you mean --no-pie ?) This isn't really a regression in ld.bfd, filing the bug upstream revealed that this never worked as a ld flag [2] - in fact it seems we were by accident setting --nmagic). Since it never had the wanted effect this usage of LDFLAGS_NOPIE, should be droppable without any effect. This also is the only use-case of LDFLAGS_NOPIE in .mak, therefore we can also remove it from being added there.

2020-03-16optionrom/pvh: scan entire RSDP AreaJoe Richey
Right now the PVH option rom scans for the RSDP from 0xE0000 to 0xE1FFF. This is probobly a typo, it should scan from 0xE0000 to 0xFFFFF. This is actually an issue on some QEMU versions/machines. For example, when I run QEMU the RSDP is placed at 0xf5ad0 which will not be picked up by the current implementation. This bug still allows a Linux guest to boot (in most configurations) as the kernel will just scan for the RSDP if one isn't provided.

The new pvh.bin option rom can be used with SeaBIOS to boot uncompressed kernel using the x86/HVM direct boot ABI. pvh.S contains the entry point of the option rom. It runs in real mode, loads the e820 table querying the BIOS, and then it switches to 32bit protected mode and jumps to the pvh_load_kernel() written in pvh_main.c. pvh_load_kernel() loads the cmdline and kernel entry_point using fw_cfg, then it looks for RSDP, fills the hvm_start_info required by x86/HVM ABI, and finally jumps to the kernel entry_point.

2016-10-06rules.mak: quiet-command: Split command name and args to printPeter Maydell
The quiet-command make rule currently takes two arguments: the command and arguments to run, and a string to print if the V flag is not set (ie we are not being verbose). By convention, the string printed is of the form " NAME some args". Unfortunately to get nicely lined up output all the strings have to agree about what column the arguments should start in, which means that if we add a new quiet-command usage which wants a slightly longer CMD name then we either put up with misalignment or change every quiet-command string. Split the quiet-mode string into two, the "NAME" and the "same args" part, and use printf(1) to format the string automatically. This means we only need to change one place if we want to support a longer maximum name. In particular, we can now print 7-character names lined up properly (they are needed for the OSX "SETTOOL" invocation). Change all the uses of quiet-command to the new syntax. (Any which are missed or inadvertently reintroduced via later merges will result in slightly misformatted quiet output rather than disaster.) A few places in the pc-bios/ makefiles are updated to use "BUILD", "SIGN" and "STRIP" rather than "Building", "Signing" and "Stripping" for consistency and to keep them below 7 characters. Module .mo links now print "LD" rather than the nonstandard "LD -r".

2016-09-13optionrom: do not rely on compiler's bswap optimizationPaolo Bonzini
Recent compilers can detect and inline manually-written bswap code, but GCC 4.2.1 (the last GPLv2 version) cannot and generates really awful code. Depending on how the compiler is configured, it might also not want to generate bswap because it was not in i386.

2016-08-15pc-bios/optionrom: Fix OpenBSD build with better detection of linker emulationPeter Maydell
The various host OSes are irritatingly variable about the name of the linker emulation we need to pass to ld's -m option to build the i386 option ROMs. Instead of doing this via a CONFIG ifdef, check in configure whether any of the emulation names we know about will work and pass the right answer through to the makefile. If we can't find one, we fall back to not trying to build the option ROMs, in the same way we would for a non-x86 host platform. This is in particular necessary to unbreak the build on OpenBSD, since it wants a different answer to FreeBSD and we don't have an existing CONFIG_ variable that distinguishes the two.

2016-08-09optionrom: fix compilation with mingw docker targetPaolo Bonzini
Two fixes are needed. First, mingw does not have -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE, hence --enable-debug disables optimization. This is not acceptable for ROMs, which should override CFLAGS to force inclusion of -O2. Second, PE stores global constructors and destructors using the following linker script snippet: ___CTOR_LIST__ = .; __CTOR_LIST__ = . ; LONG (-1);*(.ctors); *(.ctor); *(SORT(.ctors.*)); LONG (0); ___DTOR_LIST__ = .; __DTOR_LIST__ = . ; LONG (-1); *(.dtors); *(.dtor); *(SORT(.dtors.*)); LONG (0); The LONG directives cause the .img files to be 16 bytes too large; the recently added check to signrom.py catches this.

2016-08-09linuxboot_dma: avoid guest ABI breakage on gcc vs. clang compilationPaolo Bonzini
Recent GCC compiles linuxboot_dma.c to 921 bytes, while CentOS 6 needs 1029 and clang needs 1527. Because the size of the ROM, rounded to the next 512 bytes, must match, this causes the API to break between a <1K ROM and one that is bigger. We want to make the ROM 1.5 KB in size, but it's better to make clang produce leaner ROMs, because currently it is worryingly close to the limit. To fix this prevent clang's happy inlining (which -Os cannot prevent). This only requires adding a noinline attribute. Second, the patch makes sure that the ROM has enough padding to prevent ABI breakage on different compilers. The size is now hardcoded in the file that is passed to signrom.py, as was the case before commit 6f71b77 ("scripts/signrom.py: Allow option ROM checksum script to write the size header.", 2016-05-23); signrom.py however will still pad the input to the requested size. This ensures that the padding goes beyond the next multiple of 512 if necessary, and also avoids the need for -fno-toplevel-reorder which clang doesn't support. signrom.py can then error out if the requested size is too small for the actual size of the compiled ROM.

2014-12-15linuxboot: fix loading old kernelsPaolo Bonzini
Old kernels that used high memory only allowed the initrd to be in the first 896MB of memory. If you load the initrd above, they complain that "initrd extends beyond end of memory". In order to fix this, while not breaking machines with small amounts of memory fixed by cdebec5 (linuxboot: compute initrd loading address, 2014-10-06), we need to distinguish two cases. If pc.c placed the initrd at end of memory, use the new algorithm based on the e801 memory map. If instead pc.c placed the initrd at the maximum address specified by the bzImage, leave it there. The only interesting part is that the low-memory info block is now loaded very early, in real mode, and thus the 32-bit address has to be converted into a real mode segment. The initrd address is also patched in the info block before entering real mode, it is simpler that way. This fixes booting the RHEL4.8 32-bit installation image with 1GB of RAM.

Even though hw/i386/pc.c tries to compute a valid loading address for the initrd, close to the top of RAM, this does not take into account other data that is malloced into that memory by SeaBIOS. Luckily we can easily look at the memory map to find out how much memory is used up there. This patch places the initrd in the first four gigabytes, below the first hole (as returned by INT 15h, AX=e801h). Without this patch: [ 0.000000] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x07000000-0x07fdffff] [ 0.000000] RAMDISK: [mem 0x0710a000-0x07fd7fff] With this patch: [ 0.000000] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x07000000-0x07fdffff] [ 0.000000] RAMDISK: [mem 0x07112000-0x07fdffff] So linuxboot is able to use the 64k that were added as padding for QEMU <= 2.1.

For multiboot, we're running in code32 so gcc didn't add the "addr32" which breaks the instruction. This patch splits that helper function in one which uses addr32 and one which does not, so everyone's happy. The good news is that nobody probably cared so far. The bundled multiboot.bin binary was built before the change and is thus correct. Please also put this patch into -stable.

2010-01-08linuxboot: fix gdt address calculationAvi Kivity
The gdt address calculation in linuxboot.bin is broken in two ways: first it loads %cs into %eax, but that instruction leaves the high bits of %eax undefined and we did not clear them. Secondly, we completely ignore the incorrect %eax, and use the undefined %ebx instead. With these issues fixed, linuxboot works again.

2010-01-08Use vpath directivePaolo Bonzini
The vpath directive has two advantages over the VPATH variable: 1) it allows to skip searching of .o files; 2) the default semantics are to append to the vpath, so there is no confusion between "VPATH=xyz" and "VPATH+=xyz". Since "vpath %.c %.h PATH" is not valid, I'm introducing a wrapper macro to append one or more directories to the vpath.

The %gs segment that was used was not matching the comments. I just moved the GDT descriptor on the stack instead. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2009-12-03Make -kernel for linux work with bochsbiosAlexander Graf
While trying to run -kernel with -bios pc-bios/pcbios.bin, I realized that I was actually writing data to %es, but only set up %ds to a 32-bit segment we want to write to. So at the end of the day the data hasn't actually been copied. Oops. So here's a fix to set ES instead of DS, which makes -kernel work with BOCHS bios again (and actually makes the code do the correct thing)!
