* [PATCH] x86: fix EFI memory map parsingMatt Tolentino2005-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The memory descriptors that comprise the EFI memory map are not fixed in stone such that the size could change in the future. This uses the memory descriptor size obtained from EFI to iterate over the memory map entries during boot. This enables the removal of an x86 specific pad (and ifdef) in the EFI header. I also couldn't stomach the broken up nature of the function to put EFI runtime calls into virtual mode any longer so I fixed that up a bit as well. For reference, this patch only impacts x86.

* [PATCH] Increase number of e820 entries hard limit from 32 to 128Venkatesh Pallipadi2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The specifications that talk about E820 map doesn't have an upper limit on the number of e820 entries. But, today's kernel has a hard limit of 32. With increase in memory size, we are seeing the number of E820 entries reaching close to 32. Patch below bumps the number upto 128. The patch changes the location of EDDBUF in zero-page (as it comes after E820). As, EDDBUF is not used by boot loaders, this patch should not have any effect on bootloader-setup code interface. Patch covers both i386 and x86-64. Tested on: * grub booting bzImage * lilo booting bzImage with EDID info enabled * pxeboot of bzImage Side-effect: bss increases by ~ 2K and init.data increases by ~7.5K on all systems, due to increase in size of static arrays.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
