-Clean up timer code. Don't use PORT_DIAG as delay mechanism.
-
-Disable a20 on jump to 16bit mode.
-
-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.

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.
-
-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.
+ * bochs cvs (20100104):
+ -- changes synched
+ * coreboot (r3348): (bochs 20060708)

+ * qemu - now uses SeaBIOS
+ * kvm - now uses SeaBIOS

The __call16 code does a long jump to the interrupt trampolines - this
is unnecessary.
-Cleanup setting of ES on GET/SET_BDA
-
-Audit code for 16bit protected mode accesses.
-
-Support 1ab1 from 16bit protected mode.
-
-Verify option roms wont stomp on seabios stack and bss.
-
-Possibly implement 32bit pcibios support.
-
-Allow one to select adding 32 bit code to 0xf000 or in a separate
-location.
-
-See if it is possible to handle interrupts while in 32bit mode.
-
-Look at integrating the lgpl vgabios into tree.
+Support PCIv3 roms? Add support for PCI "configuration code"
+extensions?
-Look at usb booting specs. Look at possibly supporting usb
-keyboard/mice.
+Possibly add option to eliminate tsc based delays on emulators.
-Add a graphical boot splash screen?
+Possibly support sending debug information over EHCI debug port.
