[PATCH] cld before call - coreboot

29 Jul 2009

      Hi,
The Multiboot spec is a bit too permissive about this, as it doesn't
specify the state of direction flag when payload is called.  Some payloads
(we found this in ReactOS FreeLDR) assume it is cleared, and fail otherwise.
We adjusted GRUB to be sure it's always cleared.  I think coreboot should do
the same.  Here's a patch for v3.

  how) you may access your data; but nobody's threatening your freedom: we
  still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."
