Timer event to keep grub msec counter was running at 1000HZ. This was too
fast for UEFI timer driver and resulted in a 10x slowdown in grub time
versus wallclock. Reduce the timer event frequency and increase tick
increment accordingly to keep better time.
On emu some checks can be laxer like check for relocation range. Additionally
module loading in emu is rarely used. So skip this check rather than making
it laxer for all platforms. In ideal we may want to have slightly different
check for emu but for now this is good enough.
This section is generated by clang and is useful only for debugging.
It contains exotic relocations, so strip them to avoid them interferring
with module loading.
This was lost when code was refactored. Patch restores previous behavior.
It is still not clear whether this is the right one. Due to the way we
detect DM abstraction, partitions on DM are skipped, we fall through to
generic detection which ends up in assuming parent device is BIOS disk.
It is useful to install GRUB on VM disk from the host. But it also means
that GRUB will mistakenly allow install on real system as well.
For now let's fix regression; future behavior needs to be discussed.

GRUB keeps partition offset and size in units of 512B sectors. Media paths
are defined in terms of LBA which are presumed to match HDD sector size.
This is probably cosmetic (EFI requires that partition is searched by GUID)
and still incorrect if GPT was created using different logical block size.
But current code is obviously wrong and new has better chances to be correct.
Otherwise it causes subsequent file open to fail, because grub_file_open
misinterprets set grub_errno for grub_file_get_device_name failure.
Closes: 46540
Define
* GRUB_EFI_PERSISTENT_MEMORY (UEFI memory map type 14) per UEFI 2.5
* GRUB_MEMORY_PERSISTENT (E820 type 7) per ACPI 3.0
* GRUB_MEMORY_PERSISTENT_LEGACY (E820 unofficial type 12) per ACPI 3.0
and translate GRUB_EFI_PERSISTENT_MEMORY to GRUB_MEMORY_PERSISTENT in
grub_efi_mmap_iterate().
Includes
* adding the E820 names to lsmmap
* handling the E820 types in make_efi_memtype()

While adding tcp window scaling support I was finding that I'd get some packet
loss or reordering when transferring from large distances and grub would just
timeout. This is because we weren't ack'ing when we got our OOO packet, so the
sender didn't know it needed to retransmit anything, so eventually it would fill
the window and stop transmitting, and we'd time out. Fix this by ACK'ing when
we don't find our next sequence numbered packet. With this fix I no longer time
out. Thanks,

Condition was accidentally reversed, so PIT calibration always failed
when PIT was present and always succeeded when PIT was missing, but in
the latter case resulted in absurdly fast clock.
Reported and tested by Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>
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.
9be4c45dbe added switch case between
fall through cases, causing all memory regions of unknown type to be
marked as available.
Move default case into its own block and add explicit FALLTHROUGH
annotation.

We were resetting nb->data every time we tried a new server, but we need to do
it every time we try for a different record, otherwise we don't end up falling
back to the A record properly. Thanks,

This makes it impossible to read from stdin without controlling tty:

It is not possible to configure encrypted containers on multiple partitions of
the same disk; after the first one all subsequent fail with
disk/cryptodisk.c:978: already mounted as crypto0
Store partition offset in cryptomount descriptor to distinguish between them.
From original patch by dann frazier <dann.frazier@canonical.com>:
grub_net_fs_open() saves off a copy of the file structure it gets passed and
uses it to create a bufio structure. It then overwrites the passed in file
structure with this new bufio structure. Since file->name doesn't get set
until we return back to grub_file_open(), it means that only the bufio
structure gets a valid file->name. The "real" file's name is left
uninitialized. This leads to a crash when the progress module hook is called
on it.
grub_net_fs_open() already saved copy of file name as ->net->name, so change
progress module to use it.
Also, grub_file_open may leave file->name as NULL if grub_strdup fails. Check
for it.

It cannot work anyway because host disk cannot be read. This fixes hostfs access
on native Windows build where filenames start with '\' or do not have initial
separator at all (d:\foo).
Issue was observed when running grub-fstest on Windows. On UNIX image name is
canonicalized to always start with `/' so this was not noticed.
This has side effect of allowing relative path names on host, but this already
was the case with `ls' command, so it just extends it to all commands.

sun4v vnet devices do not implement the support of duplex and speed
instance attributes. An attempt to open such a device with
the attributes will fail:
ok select net:speed=auto,duplex=auto
Unknown key 'speed'
Unknown key 'duplex'
Manual Configuration: Host IP, boot server and filename must be specified
WARNING: /virtual-devices@100/channel-devices@200/network@0: Can't open OBP standard TFTP package
Can't open device
ok
Therefore, let's not set SUFFIX for such devices.

The EFI spec indicates that get_status() should return the address of the buffer
we passed into transmit to indicate the the buffer was transmitted. However we
have boxes where the firmware returns some arbitrary address instead, which
makes grub think that we've not sent anything. So since we have the SNP stuff
opened in exclusive mode just assume any non-NULL txbuf means that our transmit
occurred properly. This makes grub able to do its networking stuff properly on
our broken firmware. Thanks,

Recent tests have discovered that many of our filesystems have flawed
handling of "." and "..". Rather than attempting to fix it in filesystems
themselves, make the common code fshelp aware of "." and ".." and handle
them in this layer. Add grub_fshelp_find_file_lookup for easy conversion
of BFS, HFS and exFAT which have the same problem and don't use fshelp.
mips_attributes was introduced to work around clang problems with
-msoft-float. Those problems are now fixed and moreover .gnu_attributes
itself is unportable and creates problem with clang.
Revert "mips: Fix soft-float handling."
This partially reverts commit 6a4ecd276e.
Regression from commit:
loader/linux: do not pad initrd with zeroes at the end
a8c473288d
Wimboot fails since the change above because it expects the "trailer"
initrd element on an aligned address.
This issue shows only when newc_name is used and the last initrd
entry has a not aligned size.
Since btrfs on-disk format uses little-endian, the searched item types
(ROOT_REF, INODE_REF) need converting the byte order in order to
function properly on big-endian systems.
