Michael Brown 8406115834 [build] Rename gPXE to iPXE
Access to the gpxe.org and etherboot.org domains and associated
resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.  Work
around this problem by renaming project from gPXE to iPXE, and
updating URLs to match.

Also update README, LOG and COPYRIGHTS to remove obsolete information.

Michael Brown c44a193d0d [legal] Add a selection of FILE_LICENCE declarations
Add FILE_LICENCE declarations to almost all files that make up the
various standard builds of gPXE.

Michael Brown 6554b79ff9 [uaccess] Formalise the uaccess API
The userptr_t is now the fundamental type that gets used for conversions.
For example, virt_to_phys() is implemented in terms of virt_to_user() and
user_to_phys().

Michael Brown ee2df1d6d6 [ioapi] Remove old io.h file and switch all users over to <gpxe/io.h> 2008-10-12 01:06:27 +01:00
Michael Brown 02cf755f3f Removed REAL_EXEC(); there is no longer any code using it. 2006-05-24 14:10:15 +00:00

Michael Brown d48d0fb1bb Add the concept of a "user pointer" (similar to the void __user * in
the kernel), which encapsulates the information needed to refer to an
external buffer.  Under normal operation, this can just be a void *
equivalent, but under -DKEEP_IT_REAL it would be a segoff_t equivalent.

Use this concept to avoid the need for bounce buffers in int13.c,
which reduces memory usage and opens up the possibility of using
multi-sector reads.

Extend the block-device API and the SCSI block device implementation
to support multi-sector reads.

Update iscsi.c to use user buffers.

Move the obsolete portions of realmode.h to old_realmode.h.

MS-DOS now boots an order of magnitude faster over iSCSI (~10 seconds
from power-up to C:> prompt in bochs).

Michael Brown f7b963da51 (Redoing check-in lost by SourceForge's failure.)
Use .text16.data section with "aw" attributes, to avoid section type
conflicts when placing both code and data into .text16.

Add __from_{text16,data16}.

Michael Brown f8e087767b Allow access to variables in .text16 as well as .data16. Chained
interrupt vectors, for example, will be easiest to handle if placed in
.text16.

Michael Brown f4429533a6 Added methods for efficiently declaring and accessing variables in
.data16.  librm will need to supply "char *data16", i.e. the virtual
address of the start of .data16.

Michael Brown 9fcded3d23 Towards a(nother) new real-mode infrastructure, in which we take
advantage of the fact that we have to have a permanently-resident block
