x86, boot: add linked list of struct setup_data 2008-04-26T19:34:42+00:00 Huang, Ying ying.huang@intel.com 2008-03-28T02:49:44+00:00 8b664aa66e824a0ddf4ec56d41fa0cf7bb374de6 This patch adds a field of 64-bit physical pointer to NULL terminated single linked list of struct setup_data to real-mode kernel header. This is used as a more extensible boot parameters passing mechanism.

x86: EFI runtime service support 2008-01-30T12:31:19+00:00 Huang, Ying ying.huang@intel.com 2008-01-30T12:31:19+00:00 5b83683f32b113d07edfb67a33ce389fc624423d This patch adds basic runtime services support for EFI x86_64 system. The main file of the patch is the addition of efi_64.c for x86_64. This file is modeled after the EFI IA32 avatar. EFI runtime services initialization are implemented in efi_64.c. Some x86_64 specifics are worth noting here. On x86_64, parameters passed to EFI firmware services need to follow the EFI calling convention. For this purpose, a set of functions named efi_call<x> (<x> is the number of parameters) are implemented. EFI function calls are wrapped before calling the firmware service. The duplicated code between efi_32.c and efi_64.c is placed in efi.c to remove them from efi_32.c.
