Subject: [PATCH 4/5] efi/x86: Avoid using code32_start
Date: Sun,  1 Mar 2020 18:04:35 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200301230436.2246909-5-nivedita@alum.mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200301230436.2246909-1-nivedita@alum.mit.edu>

code32_start is meant for 16-bit real-mode bootloaders to inform the
kernel where the 32-bit protected mode code starts. Nothing in the
protected mode kernel except the EFI stub uses it.

efi_main currently returns boot_params, with code32_start set inside it
to tell efi_stub_entry where startup_32 is located. Since it was invoked
by efi_stub_entry in the first place, boot_params is already known.
Return the address of startup_32 instead.

This will allow a 64-bit kernel to live above 4Gb, for example, and it's
cleaner.
