Just as an update - it's not clear to me what this patch does, and it
seems like Michael had some concerns.
Also, it doesn't seem right to hardcode the generation of that many
devices (248) in the AML code.
So, unless there are further comments I'm going to hold off on this
patch.

I've made a ImageMagick script to generate a image!
It is easy to change it to generate in other screen resolution or
change font size.
#!/bin/sh
convert -background black \
-font /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font-family/Ubuntu-R.ttf \
\( -pointsize 96 -size 320x480 \
-gravity East -fill '#2078cb' label:'Sea' \
-gravity West -fill white label:'BIOS' \
+append \) seabios.jpg
Looks awesome!

Introduce CONFIG_DEBUG_IO_PORT config option which allow user
to choose on which port to send debug on at configure time.
Bochs users are likely to use 0x402 (default) for debugging purposes,
whereas Xen uses 0xe9, as IO port address.

The Intel gfx VGA option ROM on certain platforms requires the 155f50 BIOS function to be
implemented (even if it does nothing), to work properly. This series of patch allow
VGA passthrough on Xen to work on these platforms.
An example of these platform is the Dell Lattitude E6410 laptop, on which these patchs were
tested.
Julian Pidancet (3):
vgahooks: Allow usage of VGA hooks in the Xen case
vgahooks: Register 155f vga hooks for Xen Intel passthrough devices
vgahooks: Create 155f50 hook.

Those patches are not strictly needed. On a kernel that doesn't have
them, you can simply park the vcpu thread in userspace until it is
re-added. I suggest writing the qemu patches without the assumption
that you're running on a 3.4+ kernel.

error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function
i8259 clears interrupt mask on reset. Interrupt need to be
masked again before enabling interrupts on CPU. Since option
roms are called with interrupts enabled, resume should mask
interrupts in i8259 before calling vgabios.

I agree with Peter - I think the chip+wave looks the most promising of
the above. Random thoughts - the gear could be depicted as "spinning
fast", and maybe "SeaBIOS" could be written on the gear.

Hello,
Following patch makes seabios friendly to 386/486 CPUs, providing a way how to
emulate the CPUID instruction and using TSC only if CPU actually supports the
TSC. Otherwise it uses TSC emulation mode which is similar to what is used in
Xenomai except we use timer0 here.
With this patch it is able to run on 486SX class system aka bifferboard together
with coreboot.

Please let me know if you there is something you don't like in that patch.
Thanks

Hi all,
Couple of minor patches:
(1) some messages are logged at level 1 that really shouldn't be;
(2) there's i8042 code being reached that shouldn't be if CONFIG_PS2PORT is off.
Thanks,
-Philip
Hi,
This patch series prepares vgabios for being used as qemu vga bios.
Qemu comes with multiple vga card emulations, so we need multiple
vgabios binaries. All build out of the same source tree, but with
different config options. Thus patch #1 revamps vgabios configuration
to allow building different variants in one go. Patches #2 .. #5 enable
more qemu virtual hardware support on top of that.
Gerd Hoffmann (5):
vgabios: support building multiple variants.
bochsvga: handle vmware vga.
bochsvga: build bios variant for vmware.
bochsvga: build bios variant for qxl.
bochsvga: build bios variant for isa-vga.
