* loader: implement multiboot support for Xen Dom0Roger Pau Monné2015-01-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement a subset of the multiboot specification in order to boot Xen and a FreeBSD Dom0 from the FreeBSD bootloader. This multiboot implementation is tailored to boot Xen and FreeBSD Dom0, and it will most surely fail to boot any other multiboot compilant kernel. In order to detect and boot the Xen microkernel, two new file formats are added to the bootloader, multiboot and multiboot_obj. Multiboot support must be tested before regular ELF support, since Xen is a multiboot kernel that also uses ELF. After a multiboot kernel is detected, all the other loaded kernels/modules are parsed by the multiboot_obj format. The layout of the loaded objects in memory is the following; first the Xen kernel is loaded as a 32bit ELF into memory (Xen will switch to long mode by itself), after that the FreeBSD kernel is loaded as a RAW file (Xen will parse and load it using it's internal ELF loader), and finally the metadata and the modules are loaded using the native FreeBSD way. After everything is loaded we jump into Xen's entry point using a small trampoline. The order of the multiboot modules passed to Xen is the following, the first module is the RAW FreeBSD kernel, and the second module is the metadata and the FreeBSD modules. Since Xen will relocate the memory position of the second multiboot module (the one that contains the metadata and native FreeBSD modules), we need to stash the original modulep address inside of the metadata itself in order to recalculate its position once booted. This also means the metadata must come before the loaded modules, so after loading the FreeBSD kernel a portion of memory is reserved in order to place the metadata before booting. In order to tell the loader to boot Xen and then the FreeBSD kernel the following has to be added to the /boot/loader.conf file: xen_cmdline="dom0_mem=1024M dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0pvh=1 console=com1,vga" xen_kernel="/boot/xen" The first argument contains the command line that will be passed to the Xen kernel, while the second argument is the path to the Xen kernel itself. This can also be done manually from the loader command line, by for example typing the following set of commands: OK unload OK load /boot/xen dom0_mem=1024M dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0pvh=1 console=com1,vga OK load kernel OK load zfs OK load if_tap OK load ...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | and add support for default underride to $loader_version, acting as a way to name a release. Release text is not displayed for the aforementioned feature of alternate display layout (introduced in r254237); however, for all other layouts (incl. default), the release name is displayed at lower-right. See version.4th(8) for additional information and/or historical details. NOTE: Also a minor edit to version.4th(8) while we're here. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=254942

* Add an echo to say we're "Booting..." when the overloaded "boot" Ficl word isDevin Teske2012-10-081-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | executed to better differentiate between loader-specific errors and kernel- specific errors (if ever any of either). This type of functionality hasn't been required before the introduction of the advanced menu system (r222417). Adding this functionality will help different- iate errors at the loader-level such as a BTX halt caused by heap exhaustion and errors that may be involved with executing the kernel (wrong architecture for example). A user can learn that messages before "Booting..." are related to the loader(8) environment and it's Forth-ilk, while those after are not related to loader(8) -- the point that loader(8) has ``left the building''. This patch also includes a man-page update to color.4th(8) as the color logic moves to a lower-level (from being included by beastie.4th to being included by loader.4th). After noticing a delay between execution of the overloaded "boot" FICL word and the display of text on-screen, gcooper confirmed that the introduction of a builtin memory test (disabled by adding hw.memtest.tests="0" to loader.conf(5)) was the cause of the delay. This patch adds an echo to produce "Booting..." when the overloaded "boot" word is executed (this includes from the interactive command-prompt on all arches, from the menu system on arches that run the beastie menu, and even those arches that run the menu but disable it by setting beastie_disable="YES" in loader.conf(5)). When loader_color="YES" in loader.conf(5), the same message is produced but in white text on a blue background (only the letters produced have this background -- opposed to perhaps the entire line).
