|
Version 2.0.1
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Postpone most sanity checking of CMOS layout information until right
|
||
|
|
before a CMOS read or write operation is attempted. This fixes a
|
||
|
|
problem discovered by Stefan Reinauer in which lxbios was failing on
|
||
|
|
Opteron due to the existence of a "user_data" parameter that is 256
|
||
|
|
bits long. In general, postponing the sanity checks will make
|
||
|
|
lxbios more adaptable to changes in how LinuxBIOS stores CMOS
|
||
|
|
parameters.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Merge fix from Stefan Reinauer that makes hex dumps look a bit
|
||
|
|
nicer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Merge fix from Stefan Reinauer that allows lxbios to access CMOS
|
||
|
|
memory beyond the first 128 bytes.

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 2.0.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Added the following options:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-Y
|
||
|
|
Write CMOS layout information to standard output.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-b OUTPUT_FILE
|
||
|
|
Write the contents of CMOS memory to a binary file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-B INPUT_FILE
|
||
|
|
Read binary data from file and write it to CMOS memory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-x
|
||
|
|
Show a hex dump of all CMOS data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-X DUMPFILE
|
||
|
|
Read binary data from a CMOS dumpfile and show a hex dump of
|
||
|
|
the data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thanks to Stefan Reinauer for suggesting the ideas for the "-Y",
|
||
|
|
"-b OUTPUT_FILE", and "-B INPUT_FILE" options.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Added support for reading/writing CMOS parameters between 1 and 64
|
||
|
|
bits in size that are not necessarily aligned on byte boundaries.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Reworked much of the code, cleaning up some ugly parts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Made a number of minor improvements.

|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.4.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Merge patch from Stefan Reinauer <stepan@openbios.org> that makes
|
||
|
|
lxbios recognize the LB_TAG_OPTION_CHECKSUM entry placed in the
|
||
|
|
LinuxBIOS table by newer versions of LinuxBIOS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Tweak formatting of code to facilitate merging future patches.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Minor code cleanup.

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.3.2.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Changed default_is_printable_fn to avoid problems displaying hex
|
||
|
|
dumps.

Fri Mar 7 18:00:00 PST 2003 David S. Peterson (dsp@llnl.gov)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.3.0.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Added -y option that tells lxbios to get CMOS layout information
|
||
|
|
from a file instead of from the CMOS option table.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Modified command syntax so that -r flag is required for reading a
|
||
|
|
single CMOS parameter.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Fixed bug where CMOS checksum was being displayed with bytes
|
||
|
|
reversed.

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.2.3.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Fixed bug where checksum was not being updated after changing CMOS
|
||
|
|
parameter values.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Added code to verify checksum when reading CMOS parameters.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Modified program so that check_sum parameter is treated differently
|
||
|
|
from other CMOS parameters. Now, -c option must be used to
|
||
|
|
read/write check_sum parameter.
