tsutsui | Remove no-op emips stuff.
It seems blindly copied and modified from pmax, but emips bootloader
can be specified by "Ml40x_2ace.plx" config file on the Giano simulator.
(not sure what on the real Xilinx ML401 board, but maybe hardcoded)

tsutsui | Add cd9660 support to search a bootloader file in the target file system.
Also add CD boot support for hp300, using a bootloader file in cd9660 fs.
This is a tool's part to close PR/54455.
HP 9000/300 machines read LIF directory entry allocated after
the LIF volume header at the top of the boot disk during bootstrap,
and a bootstrap file must be contiguously allocated on the disk
due to limitation of the LIF specification.
Current NetBSD/hp300's bootloader is larger than ~80KB so we have
to prepare a special 'boot' partition for FFS (that has only 8KB (ffsv1)
or 32KB (ffsv2) spaces) disks to put such a large bootloader.
On the other hand, on ISO9660 fs all files are allocated contiguously
so we can specify a bootloader file in the target ISO9660 directly
in the LIF directory entry.
Note we can simply use the existing "append" option to create bootable
CD ISO for hp300, but it looks some emulators (at leaset MAME) reject
such non-standard ISO files, i.e. with an appended bootloader file at
the end of the image.

usr.sbin/installboot: Add a command line option (-u) to set U-Boot search paths
Installboot can install U-Boot boot blocks directly into a system
image. Normally, the U-Boot files are searched for in
/usr/pkg/share/u-boot, under the expectation that most people will
build them with pkgsrc. However, it is also possible to set an
environment variable (INSTALLBOOT_UBOOT_PATHS) to a colon-separated
search path to accommodate other situations. This commit adds a
command line option (-u) to set the search path; if present, it
overrides the environment and default.

thorpej | branches: 1.40.2;
Add installboot(8) support for evbarm (and, in the future, other evb*)
boards that use u-boot. A known board database lists boards and their
respective u-boot packages. u-boot packages are discovered at run-time
(in /usr/pkg/share/u-boot, by default). These packages contain board
database overlays that describe u-boot installation procedure that's
specific for that board.
Support this as a native tool and as a host tool. The native tool
will attempt to determine the running board type using OpenFirmware
calls. Host tool and native tool alike may also specify a board type
directly using the "-o board=xxx option" or have installboot(8) determine
the board type from a device tree blob using "-o dtb=/path/to/board.dtb".
A "-o media=xxx" option is provided for boards that have different u-boot
binaries and/or installation procedures for different media types (e.g.
SDMMC, eMMC, or USB).
This is trivial to extend to other evb* platforms that use u-boot, even if
they don't use FDT for autoconfiguration.

drochner | branches: 1.37.4;
On i386/amd64, define two flag bits in the boot parameters which control
whether modules are loaded and whether boot.cfg is evaluated, and
set both to "off" per default in the PXE bootloader.
Extend "installboot" to toggle the bits.
This way, pxeboot works with existing dhcp server setups (and as
described in the manpage) out of the box. Also, boot.cfg reading
involves a stat() call which is horribly inefficient with the
TFTP pseudo file system.

tsutsui | Add a sectorsize parameter member in struct ib_params and use it
where sector size (disk block size) is required, instead of
DEV_BSIZE constant which means device I/O block size.
"Looks reasonable" from dholland@, and fixes tools installboot(8)
on Cygwin where DEV_BSIZE != 512 as mentioned in PR toolchain/42555.

Add a findstage2 function (which returns block numbers where
the secondary boot is stored to embed them into the primary bootxx)
for ext2fs.
Currently disabled because there is no primary boot block
which supports ext2fs, but it might help someone in some day.

dsl | branches: 1.33.4;
Add a -f (force) parameter to installboot(8).
If specified then checks on the disks BPB are not done, and any existing BPB
is deleted.
This is needed soince newfs(8) doesn't overwrite the BPB - which is basically
the FAT superblock.
Update documentation and add an example of using bootxx_fat16.

lukem | Overhaul how `build.sh tools' are used:
* Rename "config.h" to "nbtool_config.h" and
HAVE_CONFIG_H to HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H.
This makes in more obvious in the source when we're using
tools/compat/config.h versus "standard autoconf" config.h
* Consistently move the inclusion of nbtool_config.h to before
<sys/cdefs.h> so that the former can provide __RCSID() (et al),
and there's no need to protect those macros any more.
These changes should make it easier to "tool-ify" a program by adding:
#if HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H
#include "nbtool_config.h"
#endif
to the top of the source files (for the general case).
|
| 1.20 |
| 27-Jul-2003 |
lukem | Explicitly pull in <sys/endian.h> #if !defined(HAVE_CONFIG_H).
(I prefer to be explicit about this, since installboot uses the endian
macros a lot)

take advantage of the new shared_bbinfo_clearboot() callback.

lukem | bootblock.h:
- unify sparc_bbinfo (1064 bytes, with 256 block entries)
and sun68k_bbinfo (296 byte, with 64 block entries)
into shared_bbinfo (512 bytes, with 118 block entries),
which will be also shared by future bbinfo-using platforms
(including macppc)
- add datestamp to *_BBINFO_MAGIC strings, to prevent installboot vs
bootxx version skew.
- add macppc support
*/bootxx.c:
- migrate to new shared_bbinfo structure
installboot:
- add macppc support (still needs applepartmap support and testing)
- improve and add some more warnings & errors to installboot
- implement shared_bbinfo_clearboot() and shared_bbinfo_setboot(), which
perform the majority of the work for bbinfo-using back-ends
(rather than replicating that across multiple back-ends).

lukem | - add fsstat (fstat(2) on fsfd) and s1stat (fstat(2) on s1fd) in ib_params,
and use instead of replicating the effort in various locations
- if filesystem is not a regular file, use sync(2) instead of fsync(2)
after the bootstrap has been written
- move <sys/stat.h> and <stdint.h> into "installboot.h"

lukem | user visible stuff:
- add `-B s2bno', to provide the starting block for the secondary bootstrap.
intended for use on platforms where the blocks of the stage2 bootstrap
are hardcoded into the stage1 bootstrap (currently: sparc, sun2)
- don't support `-b s1bno' for sparc or sun2, since the primary is always
at a fixed location on the disk.
- if `filesystem' is a regular file, use fsync(2) instead of sync(2)
code changes:
- add hardcode_stage2(), which uses -B s2bno and the size of the
provided secondary bootstrap (as an actual file, not as part of the
`filesystem' argument) to provide a sequential list of blocks from s2bno,
each block being the appropriate file system size (from
params->fstype->blocksize)
- add blocksize and needswap run-time parameters to ib_fs
- in *_match(), set params->fstype->blocksize to the underlying block size
(8KB for raw), and params->fstype->needswap as appropriate
- rename IB_STARTBLOCK to IB_STAGE1START, and add IB_STAGE2START
- use hardcode_stage2() to implement raw_findstage2() and IB_STAGE2BLOCK
support for ffs_findstage2()
- improve some comments, add some prototypes, ...

installboot(8): fix up markup
Don't overuse .Sy - when everything is highlighted, nothing is. Use
.Ic for options &c to get correct PostScript output (both are bold in
plain text).
Use Aq Ar inside .Pa, as both Pa and Ar are rendered as underscored
text in plain text output, and the distinction is lost.
Don't set examples in bold, but give them .Pp space around - they are
much easier to read this way.
Use consistent -width in FILES.

PR/57909: Jan-Benedict Glaw: Don't include (build) timestamp when doing a
reproducible build
fix usage string, improve error handling.
add missing chunk for repro-build. fix gcc warnings.
avoid stringop truncation, fix copyright string to prevent assembler warnings.
Fix build as a tool (Jan-Benedict Glaw)
Fix integer overflow of strtol(3) for "loadpoint" address on ILP32 hosts.
This strtol(3) was introduced in rev 1.12 for PR/57909 after netbsd-10,
but it returns LONG_MAX (0x7FFFFFFF) for 0xFFF00000 on ILP32 hosts and
the wrong loadpoint causes "NOT ENOUGH MEMORY" error by the BOOTROMs
on loading uboot.lif on (at least) my 9000/360 and 9000/425t.
Misc cosmetic changes for mostly readability.
- KNF and add some newlines per blocks
- define and use proper bintobcd() macro
- make local functions and variables static
The same uboot.lif binaries are generated.
Rename ${PROGAOUT} -> ${PROGELF} to reflect reality.
Use proper signedness for the LIF file system data structures.
Ancient 4.3BSD used short and int for location, file size, file type,
and addresses etc. but all of them should be unsigned.
Also rename several variables and add comments for readability.
The LIF file system info can be found in "The HPDir Project" page:
https://www.hp9845.net/9845/projects/hpdir/
The same uboot.lif binaries are generated.
Add a preliminary CD boot support to uboot for preparation of PR/54455.
Briefly tested on mame, but not enalbed yet.
Recognize SCSI CD-ROM devices as a booted device properly.
Necessary for PR port-hp300/54455, to boot an md root root RAMDISK
kernel from CD-ROM without "WARNING: can't find match for bootdev:"
prompt.
Sync with src/sys/arch/hp300/stand/mkboot/volhdr.h rev 1.6.
https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2024/05/07/msg151195.html
Use proper signedness for the LIF file system data structures.
mkboot should use this MI <sys/bootblock.h> and volhdr.h should
be removed soon.
Use MI <sys/bootblock.h> to refer LIF filesystem structures.
This should have been done when LIF definitions were initially added
to <sys/bootblock.h> for MI installboot(8).
Enable SUPPORT_CD on uboot.
Make cd9660_util.c usable in userland tools like installboot(8).
This was partially done for src/distrib/cdrom/macppc_installboot,
but more strict prototypes are necessary for native binary builds.
Install cd9660 related system headers for tools installboot(8) builds.
Reorder function prototypes per source files.
Add cd9660 support to search a bootloader file in the target file system.
Also add CD boot support for hp300, using a bootloader file in cd9660 fs.
This is a tool's part to close PR/54455.
HP 9000/300 machines read LIF directory entry allocated after
the LIF volume header at the top of the boot disk during bootstrap,
and a bootstrap file must be contiguously allocated on the disk
due to limitation of the LIF specification.
Current NetBSD/hp300's bootloader is larger than ~80KB so we have
to prepare a special 'boot' partition for FFS (that has only 8KB (ffsv1)
or 32KB (ffsv2) spaces) disks to put such a large bootloader.
On the other hand, on ISO9660 fs all files are allocated contiguously
so we can specify a bootloader file in the target ISO9660 directly
in the LIF directory entry.
Note we can simply use the existing "append" option to create bootable
CD ISO for hp300, but it looks some emulators (at leaset MAME) reject
such non-standard ISO files, i.e. with an appended bootloader file at
the end of the image.
Put a RAMDISK kernel and SYS_UBOOT into hp300 installcd to make it bootable.
This should finally close PR/54455.
Fix tools build errors on Cygwin.
Appease warnings on building tools/installboot on Cygwin.
