- implemented hline/vline (part of wborder family)
- screen cursor now relocates at same time as window cursor when
restoring after a non-wrapping function
automatically linked in on demand.
Corrected warnings in misc.c. strtoul() really should be
unsigned long strtoul ( const char *p, const char **endp, int base )
but such is not the ANSI standard.
Generic PCI code now handles 64-bit BARs correctly when setting
"membase"; drivers should need to call pci_bar_start() only if they want
to use BARs other than the first memory or I/O BAR.
Split rarely-used PCI functions out into pciextra.c.
Core PCI code is now 662 bytes (down from 1308 bytes in Etherboot 5.4).
284 bytes of this saving comes from the pci/pciextra split.
Cosmetic changes to lots of drivers (e.g. vendor_id->vendor in order to
match the names used in Linux).
for use by malloc().
This breaks the image-loading code (which previously used the heap to
allocate the buffer for downloading the image), but that's not a major
concern since I'm going to tear out all the image formats within the next
couple of days anyway. Byebye, NBI! :)
Shaved around 100 bytes off vsprintf.o. It's now 50 bytes smaller than
the old implementation and provides much more conformant semantics,
including the ability to return the number of characters that would have
been printed to the string had the buffer been big enough. (iSCSI needs
this functionality).
stack, even if we don't yet print it out.
At some point, vsprintf() needs to be fixed up so that it can correctly
cope with limited-sized buffers (i.e. vsnprintf), long longs, and
standard format specifiers (e.g. "%04x"). We should also remove the
special types (MAC addresses and IP addresses). This would then enable
us to use gcc's ability to type-check printf format strings.
I want to get to the point where any header in include/ reflects a
standard user-level header (e.g. a POSIX header), while everything that's
specific to gPXE lives in include/gpxe/. Headers that reflect a Linux
header (e.g. if_ether.h) should also be in include/gpxe/, with the same
name as the Linux header and, preferably, the same names used for the
definitions.
kernel.
Removed obsolete struct arprequest from if_arp.h and put it in nic.c so
that nic.c will still compile. ARP will very shortly be handled by
net/arp.c instead.
