Add support for performing basic TPM measurements. Right now this only
supports extending PCRs statically and only on UEFI and BIOS systems, but
will measure all modules as they're loaded.
PIT isn't available on some of new hardware including Hyper-V. So
use pmtimer for calibration. Moreover pmtimer calibration is faster, so
use it on coreboor where booting time is important.
Based on patch by Michael Chang.
Add a command to read values from the qemu fwcfg store. This allows data
to be passed from the qemu command line to grub.
Example use:
echo '(hd0,1)' >rootdev
qemu -fw_cfg opt/rootdev,file=rootdev
fwconfig opt/rootdev root
libgcc for boot environment isn't always present and compatible.
libgcc is often absent if endianness or bit-size at boot is different
from running OS.
libgcc may use optimised opcodes that aren't available on boot time.
So instead of relying on libgcc shipped with the compiler, supply
the functions in GRUB directly.
Tests are present to ensure that those replacement functions behave the
way compiler expects them to.
Previously we supplied only unsigned divisions on platforms that need software
division.
Yet compiler may itself use a signed division. A typical example would be a
difference between 2 pointers which involves division by object size.
Basic usage would look something like this:
gptprio.next -d usr_dev -u usr_uuid
linuxefi ($usr_dev)/boot/vmlinuz mount.usr=PARTUUID=$usr_uuid
After booting the system should set the 'successful' bit on the
partition that was used.
The first hint of something practical, a command that can restore any of
the GPT structures from the alternate location. New test case must run
under QEMU because the loopback device used by the other unit tests does
not support writing.
This module is a new implementation for reading GUID Partition Tables
which is much stricter than the existing part_gpt module and exports GPT
data directly instead of the generic grub_partition structure. It will
be the basis for modules that need to read/write/update GPT data.
The current code does nothing more than read and verify the table.
This was the only instance of "library" in core config. A bug was
reported that -fno-stack-protector wasn't passed to it. Instead of
figuring out why it failed just remove this construction used
needlessly.
