-Disable a20 on jump to 16bit mode.
+Unify floppy functions and main disk functions?
-Do a pci scan for ide controllers - don't just assume ISA ports are
-available.
-
-The keyboard driver should detect ctrl+alt+del and reboot the
-machine.
-
-Fix keyboard LEDs.
+Add int 0x1589 support.
Review changes committed to coreboot, virtualbox, qemu, kvm, and bochs
cvs tip.
- * bochs cvs (1.209) -- all changes synched
- * coreboot (r3348): 1.163 -- no noteworthy enhancements
- * qemu (r4675): 1.207 -- supports >4Gig memory
- * kvm (45a442c): 1.182 -- >4gig, e820 vmx pages, enable cache?,
- wrmsr in smp_start and rombios32, acpi insrcovr table
- * virtualbox (r9404): 1.176 -- f11/f12 kbd, lots of mouse changes,
- logo, set text mode?, int 1589, floppy data rate?,
- dummy_isr_function, int19 calls post
-
-Look into ways to reduce stack usage. Alter ISRs so that they do not
-enable irqs. Only call out to other bios functions after minimizing
-stack usage.
+ * bochs cvs (20090620):
+ -- hpet, int1589, smbios mem>16GB, mptable on 1 cpu
+ * coreboot (r3348): (bochs 20060708)
+ -- no noteworthy enhancements
+ * qemu (r6125): (bochs 20080603)
+ -- acpi hpet table
+ * kvm (1a33292): (bochs 20081016)
+ -- acpi dsdt changes, e820 vmx pages, setup mtrrs, clear tsc, acpi
+ intsrcovr table, different pci irqs, smbios always uses 16
+ cpus, no acpi ssdt, fadt->gpe0_blk set
+ * virtualbox (r13560): (bochs 20061231)
+ -- lots of mouse changes, logo, scsi/etherboot hooks, int 1589,
+ floppy data rate?, int19 calls post
+
+Possibly introduce a data type for the many seg/off pairs.
Audit all sti/cli calls. Audit all call16 calls to make sure flags is
setup properly with respect to irqs.
-Audit statements where a 32bit intermediary changes meaning of a 16bit
-comparison.
-
-Code assumes ebda segment is static - it doesn't read 0x40e.
-
The __call16 code does a long jump to the interrupt trampolines - this
is unnecessary.
-Fix makefiles so that they rebuild the required files automatically.
-
-Cleanup setting of ES on GET/SET_BDA
-
Possibly implement 32bit pcibios support.
Allow one to select adding 32 bit code to 0xf000 or in a separate
location.
-Look at integrating the lgpl vgabios into tree.
+Implement bios post memory manager (PMM)?
+
+Support PCIv3 roms? Add support for PCI "configuration code"
+extensions? Add support for PCI permanent memory extensions to PMM?
+
+Possibly add option to eliminate tsc based delays on emulators.
+
+Add a kconfig style configuration program instead of requiring users
+to modify config.h.
+
+Support usb booting? Support usb keyboard/mice?
+
+Add a graphical boot splash screen?
+
+Possibly support sending debug information over EHCI debug port.
