[OE-core] [PATCH] syslinux: fix booting memtest86+ using pxelinux regression

Jonathan Liu net147 at gmail.com
Sun Feb 2 04:58:52 UTC 2014


After syslinux was updated from 4.07 to 6.01, booting memtest86+ using
pxelinux would fail:
PXELINUX 6.01 2013-07-04 Copyright (C) 1994-2013 H. Peter Anvin et al
Loading memtest86... ok
Booting kernel failed: invalid argument

This backports the necessary upstream patches to allow memtest86+ to
boot using pxelinux again.

+Subject: [PATCH 1/4] movebits: Add SMT_TERMINAL - a last resort region type
+
+Some memory regions are usable, but only as a last resort just before we
+hand over control to a kernel image. Add the necessary movebits
+infrastructure to use these regions when all other options have been
+exhausted.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/4] memscan: build a linked list of memory scanners
+
+By registering memory scanners at runtime we can support multiple memory
+scanner functions, which helps us to isolate them and keep things
+modular, only registering them for specific platform/derivative
+combinations. This is preparation for adding a memory scanner that is
+specific to PXELINUX on bios and understands when the memory region
+occupied by the PXE stack can be reused.

+Subject: [PATCH 3/4] PXELINUX: Add bios memscan function
+
+We can mark the memory region occupied by the PXE stack as SMT_TERMINAL
+provided that KeepPXE isn't set. Historically some very old
+non-relocatable kernel images (memtest86+) have a load address that
+falls within the PXE stack region, so we need to attempt to load into
+that region if at all possible.

+Subject: [PATCH 4/4] pxe: use bios_fbm() and real_base_mem to calculate free
+ space
+
+We don't need to individually add the PXE regions, we already have two
+symbols that denote the memory region that will be freed when calling
+unload_pxe().
+
+This essentially reverts commit 03dda0f1 ("pxe: mark all PXE regions as
+SMT_TERMINAL").
