95c07736cb Be more aggressive in attempts to enable A20, now that we have the
optimisation of only trying to do so when necessary.

57b5e227ff Use fast in-situ test for gate A20 being set, to cut down on the
number of (potentially very slow) gateA20_set operations.

Die with a fatal error if we are unable to set gate A20; if this fails
then we are bound to experience memory corruption at a later stage,
and I'd prefer to pick it up early.

0b0e34e667 Provide {get,set}_fbms() in basemem.h.
set_fbms() will also update the E820 hidden region.

aaed3d50a8 Some operating systems get a nasty shock if a region of the E820 map seems
to start on a non-page boundary.  Make life safer by rounding out our
edited regions.

c980cdd0aa Move memmap.h out of arch/i386; it no longer contains anything
architecture-dependent and is needed by the ELF code.

9c3b4e5b0b Some BIOSes return 0xe0 for extended characters. Just assume that
anything over 0x80 is an extended character.

8bff0f0619 Avoid draining the keyboard buffer during gateA20_set(). It shouldn't
technically be necessary, because the "enable A20" command requires
only that the keyboard controller is ready to accept input (i.e. that
its input buffer is empty), and shouldn't also require that the
keyboard is ready to send output (i.e. that its output buffer is also
empty).  See http://www.smsc.com/main/tools/io-bios/42i.pdf section
3.1 ("Command Invocation") for a justification.

gateA20_set() is called on every real-mode transition (in case some
idiot piece of external code such as Intel's PXE stack decided it
would be fun to re-disable A20), so draining the keyboard buffer means
that we end up losing keypresses on some systems.  In particular, this
makes typing at the command line almost impossible, and causes
Etherboot to ignore Ctrl-Alt-Del.

We should really implement a gateA20_test() function to verify that
gate A20 has been correctly enabled, and think about adding other
commonly-used methods such as Fast Gate A20.

88e38fa148 We don't actually have a stdio.h header file. Our printf() functions are
defined in vsprintf.h.  (This may change, since vsprintf.h is a
non-standard name, but for now it's the one to use.)

There should be no need to include vsprintf.h just for DBG() statements,
since include/compiler.h forces it in for a debug build anyway.

78dd963c1f Check to see if we've reached the end of the map before attempting to
skip past an empty region, otherwise we end up generating an infinitely
long e820 map.  (Yes, there *are* real systems that provide e820 maps
with a zero-length region at the end...)

53935e9dc6 Set carry flag before calling INT 15,e801 and INT 15,e820.
Ignore carry flag for INT 15,88; the Ralf Brown interrupt list says
that CF is unreliable for this call.

77a65075a6 Replaced memsizes.c with smaller memmap.c, taking advantage of __data16,
and creating a memory map that's easier to work with than the E820 map.

5ec2b2c251 Cope with regions bigger than 4GB.
We now split e820 regions around ourselves, rather than just
truncating the e820 region.  This avoids the worst-case scenario of
losing all memory over 4GB.

It's more important to get the memory map right now that we're
expecting to still be loaded when the OS starts in several situations
(e.g. Linux with UNDI driver, any OS with iSCSI/AoE boot, etc.).
