Subject: x86, boot: Define the 2.12 bzImage boot protocol
X-Git-Tag: v3.8-rc6~5^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=09c205afde70c15f20ca76ba0a57409dad175fd0;p=pandora-kernel.git

x86, boot: Define the 2.12 bzImage boot protocol

Define the 2.12 bzImage boot protocol: add xloadflags and additional
fields to allow the command line, initramfs and struct boot_params to
live above the 4 GiB mark.

The xloadflags now communicates if this is a 64-bit kernel with the
legacy 64-bit entry point and which of the EFI handover entry points
are supported.

Avoid adding new read flags to loadflags because of claimed
bootloaders testing the whole byte for == 1 to determine bzImageness
at least until the issue can be researched further.

This is based on patches by Yinghai Lu and David Woodhouse.
