[LinuxBIOS] standard hardware interface
by Rogelio Serrano Aug. 22, 2006

Aug. 22, 2006

Is there a de facto standard for ram controllers? If none which chipset is close to being a de facto standard? Same question for pci -- things i hate about my linux pc: 1. it takes more than a second to boot up 2. keeps asking about filenames and directories 3. does not remember what i was working on yesterday 4. does not remember all the changes i have ever made 5.cannot figure out necessary settings by itself

[LinuxBIOS] OLPC buildsystem cleanups
by Carl-Daniel U. Hailfinger Aug. 21, 2006

Aug. 21, 2006

Hi, the attached patches change the OLPC build system to use relative payload paths instead of using a hardcoded file in /tmp which will sooner or later cause security problems. Additionally, a check for config file correctness has been added so you can't accidentially generate the wrong payload for a given LinuxBIOS config. I forgot how to invert command return codes in makefiles, so it would be cool if somebody could replace the FIXME in the olpc patch with the inverted grep command of some lines later. Please note: The buildrom patch can only be applied upstream after teh LinuxBIOS patch has been applied upstream (and the needed svn revision obviously also has to be updated).

AGESA is in assembly code now, and it is only can be released to IBV under NDA. IBV use the source code in their framework. Current LinuxBIOS support code for rev F are LinuxBIOS native code.
