RE: [LinuxBIOS] Merge complete....

[YhLu]

filo is removed too.
more generic support for pci-x, pci-e,  ht,  Eric, is it support HT-HT
bridge now?

also

diff -r freebios_lnxi/src/arch/i386/init/ldscript.lb
../freebios2/src/arch/i386/init/ldscript.lb
44,49d43
< 
<       /* Move up the location counter if the start of the rom section is

<        */
<       . = ( ( ( _ROMBASE + ROM_IMAGE_SIZE  - 1 ) == 0xffffffff ) && ( . <
0xffff0000 ) ) ? 0xffff0000 : . ;
< 
there is some problem too.
for some 8 way opteron system with romcc
i need
linuxbios_ram
auto.inc  ---- it is very big
entry32.inc  --- _start is here
failover.inc
jmp auto.inc
out:
_main in crt0.S

then you will push auto.inc into the top 64k too, but the 64k can not fit.

So please merge that into main tree...

[LinuxBIOS] Merge complete....

NOT YET!

this merge is huge. Ollie is going through it bit by bit. We are not ready 
to merge yet.

Eric, please hold on for a while, Ollie will finish up his summary.

Yes.  I think if we are going to keep it we need a filo branch
that can periodically sync.  I'm really not comfortable with
filo in there.

A HT-HT bridge should probably work.  And if not the infrastructure is
complete enough that it should be minor bug fixes to make it work.

Yes there is auto-tuning for the all busses I know how to tune so
we can get that code out of drivers and into the BIOS which should be
current on the errata that affect a given board.

I believe you are asking for a change.   But I don't quite follow.

For changes that are needed I suspect we will want to make them to the
branch and then merge the branch.  At least if we are doing much
collaborating on getting it done.
