Add a new disk driver called obdisk for IEEE1275 platforms. Currently
the only platform using this disk driver is SPARC, however other IEEE1275
platforms could start using it if they so choose. While the functionality
within the current IEEE1275 ofdisk driver may be suitable for PPC and x86, it
presented too many problems on SPARC hardware.
Within the old ofdisk, there is not a way to determine the true canonical
name for the disk. Within Open Boot, the same disk can have multiple names
but all reference the same disk. For example the same disk can be referenced
by its SAS WWN, using this form:
/pci@302/pci@2/pci@0/pci@17/LSI,sas@0/disk@w5000cca02f037d6d,0
It can also be referenced by its PHY identifier using this form:
/pci@302/pci@2/pci@0/pci@17/LSI,sas@0/disk@p0
It can also be referenced by its Target identifier using this form:
/pci@302/pci@2/pci@0/pci@17/LSI,sas@0/disk@0
Also, when the LUN=0, it is legal to omit the ,0 from the device name. So with
the disk above, before taking into account the device aliases, there are 6 ways
to reference the same disk.
Then it is possible to have 0 .. n device aliases all representing the same disk.
Within this new driver the true canonical name is determined using the the
IEEE1275 encode-unit and decode-unit commands when address_cells == 4. This
will determine the true single canonical name for the device so multiple ihandles
are not opened for the same device. This is what frequently happens with the old
ofdisk driver. With some devices when they are opened multiple times it causes
the entire system to hang.
Another problem solved with this driver is devices that do not have a device
alias can be booted and used within GRUB. Within the old ofdisk, this was not
possible, unless it was the original boot device. All devices behind a SAS
or SCSI parent can be found. Within the old ofdisk, finding these disks
relied on there being an alias defined. The alias requirement is not
necessary with this new driver. It can also find devices behind a parent
after they have been hot-plugged. This is something that is not possible
with the old ofdisk driver.
The old ofdisk driver also incorrectly assumes that the device pointing to by a
device alias is in its true canonical form. This assumption is never made with
this new driver.
Another issue solved with this driver is that it properly caches the ihandle
for all open devices. The old ofdisk tries to do this by caching the last
opened ihandle. However this does not work properly because the layer above
does not use a consistent device name for the same disk when calling into the
driver. This is because the upper layer uses the bootpath value returned within
/chosen, other times it uses the device alias, and other times it uses the
value within grub.cfg. It does not have a way to figure out that these devices
are the same disk. This is not a problem with this new driver.
Due to the way GRUB repeatedly opens and closes the same disk. Caching the
ihandle is important on SPARC. Without caching, some SAS devices can take
15 - 20 minutes to get to the GRUB menu. This ihandle caching is not possible
without correctly having the canonical disk name.
When available, this driver also tries to use the deblocker #blocks and
a way of determining the disk size.
Finally and probably most importantly, this new driver is also capable of
seeing all partitions on a GPT disk. With the old driver, the GPT
partition table can not be read and only the first partition on the disk
can be seen.

uboot_disk_write() is currently lacking the write support
to storage devices because, historically, those devices did not
implement block_write() in U-Boot.
The solution has been tested using a patched U-Boot loading
and booting GRUB in a QEMU vexpress-a9 environment.
The disk write operations were triggered with GRUB's save_env
command.

The original code which handles the recovery of a RAID 6 disks array
assumes that all reads are multiple of 1 << GRUB_DISK_SECTOR_BITS and it
assumes that all the I/O is done via the struct grub_diskfilter_segment.
This is not true for the btrfs code. In order to reuse the native
grub_raid6_recover() code, it is modified to not call
grub_diskfilter_read_node() directly, but to call an handler passed
as an argument.

Currently, the GRUB payload for coreboot does not detect the Western
Digital hard disk WDC WD20EARS-60M AB51 connected to the ASRock E350M1,

GRUB detects the drive, when either unloading the module *ahci*, and
then loading it again, or when doing a warm reset.
As the ten second time-out is too short, increase it to 32 seconds,
used by SeaBIOS. which detects the drive successfully.
The AHCI driver in libpayload uses 30 seconds, and that time-out was
added in commit 354066e1 (libpayload: ahci: Increase timeout for
signature reading) with the description below.
> We can't read the drives signature before it's ready, i.e. spun up.
> So set the timeout to the standard 30s. Also put a notice on the

Rename grub_gpt_part_type to grub_gpt_part_guid and update grub_gpt_partentry
to use this type for both the partition type GUID string and the partition GUID
string entries. This change ensures that the two GUID fields are handled more

Check the error bits in the interrupt status register. According to the
AHCI 1.2 spec, "Interrupt sources that are disabled (‘0’) are still
reflected in the status registers.", so this should work even though
grub uses polling
This fixes the following problem on a Fujitsu E744 laptop:
Sometimes there is a very long delay (up to several minutes) when
booting from hard disk. It seems accessing the DVD drive (which has no
disk inserted) sometimes fails with some errors, which leads to each
access being stalled until the 20s timeout triggers. This seems to
happen when grub is trying to read filesystem/partition data.
The problem is that the command_issue bit that is checked in the loop is
only reset if the "HBA receives a FIS which clears the BSY, DRQ, and ERR
bits for the command", but the ERR bit is never cleared. Therefore
command_issue is never reset and grub waits for the timeout.
The relevant bit in our case is the Task File Error Status (TFES), which
is equivalent to the ERR bit 0 in tfd. But this patch also checks
the other error bits except for the "Interface non-fatal error status"
bit.

In util/getroot and efidisk slightly modify exitsing comment to mostly
retain it but still make GCC7 compliant with respect to fall through
annotation.
In grub-core/lib/xzembed/xz_dec_lzma2.c it adds same comments as
upstream.
In grub-core/tests/setjmp_tets.c declare functions as "noreturn" to
suppress GCC7 warning.
In grub-core/gnulib/regexec.c use new __attribute__, because existing

immediately precedes case statement).
Otherwise add FALLTHROUGH comment.

iPXE adds Simple File System Protocol to loaded image handle, as side
effect it also adds Block IO protocol (according to comments, to work
around some bugs in EDK2). GRUB assumes that every device with Block IO
is disk and skips network initialization entirely. But iPXE Block IO
implementation is just a stub which always fails for every operation
so cannot be used. Attempt to detect and skip such devices.
We are using media ID which iPXE sets to "iPXE" and block IO size in
hope that no real device would announce 1B block ...

Returned from the OpenProtocol operation, the grub_efi_block_io_media
structure contains the io_align field, specifying the minimum alignment
required for buffers used in any data transfers with the device.
Make grub_efidisk_readwrite() allocate a temporary buffer, aligned to
this boundary, if the buffer passed to it does not already meet the
requirements.
Also sanity check the io_align field in grub_efidisk_open() for
power-of-two-ness and bail if invalid.
Map EFI_NO_MEDIA to GRUB_ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE that is ignored by diskfilter. This
actually matches pretty close (we obviously attempt to read outside of media)
and avoids adding more error codes.
This affects only internally initiated scans. If read/write from removable is
explicitly requested, we still return an error and text explanation is more
clear for user than generic error.
