K8 and Fam10+ CPUs. What this patch does: 1. Enable SSE (to get some more registers to play with) 2. Determine CPUID, and stash it in an XMM register, and reference value for comparison in another XMM register (mangled somewhat to simplify inequality comparisons) 3. Add a macro jmp_if_k8, which jumps if the CPU is K8 (using an SSE compare) 4. Replace #if CAR_FAM10 sections with runtime checks using jmp_if_k8. This is pretty mechanical work. The macro uses local labels (1: and 2:) to prevent namespace issues 5. At one time, CPU_ADDR_BITS is used to fill a register. This is replaced with hardcoded values for both cases, and switched appropriately. 6.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS you can find in most of today's computers. It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes one of many possible payloads, e.g. a Linux kernel. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. Examples include: * A Linux kernel * FILO (a simple bootloader with filesystem support) * GRUB2 (a free bootloader; support is in development) * OpenBIOS (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * Open Firmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * SmartFirmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * GNUFI (a free, UEFI-compatible firmware) * Etherboot (for network booting and booting from raw IDE or FILO) * ADLO (for booting Windows 2000 or OpenBSD) * Plan 9 (a distributed operating system) * memtest86 (for testing your RAM) Supported Hardware ------------------ Coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
