When building hvmloader for Xen tools the ipxe objects are also linked into the binary. Unfortunately the linker will place them in the order found in the archive. Since this order is random the resulting hvmloader binary differs when it was built from identical sources but on different build hosts. To help with creating a reproducible binary the elements in blib.a must simply be sorted before passing them to $(AR).

This directory builds gPXE option ROMs from the gPXE source tarball. We provide this tarball in our source so that the option ROMs can be reconstructed from source, allowing easier debugging and fulfilling the terms of the GPL. We make a few non-standard settings, most to do with timeouts and when to give up, and for stricter DHCP spec compliance. ---------------------------------------- Since gPXE upstream do not appear to distribute tarballs, we generated one ourselves with the following runes (to extract the tree as on 25th September 2008): git clone git://git.etherboot.org/scm/gpxe.git cd gpxe git archive --format=tar --prefix=gpxe/ c24bc349ead939d90b5784dbff3cd9fdb9d83ba8 | gzip >../gpxe-git-snapshot.tar.gz ---------------------------------------- Previously, an image from Rom-o-matic.net was provided here, fetched from the following URL: http://rom-o-matic.net/5.4.3/build.php?version=5.4.3&F=ignore&nic=rtl8139%3Artl8139+--+%5B0x10ec%2C0x8139%5D&ofmt=Binary+ROM+Image%28.zrom%29&arch=i386&ASK_BOOT=-1&BOOT_FIRST=BOOT_NIC&BOOT_SECOND=BOOT_NOTHING&BOOT_THIRD=BOOT_NOTHING&BOOT_INDEX=0&STATIC_CLIENT_IP=&STATIC_SUBNET_MASK=&STATIC_SERVER_IP=&STATIC_GATEWAY_IP=&STATIC_BOOTFILE=&EXIT_ON_FILE_LOAD_ERROR=on&DHCP_CLIENT_ID=&DHCP_CLIENT_ID_LEN=&DHCP_CLIENT_ID_TYPE=&DHCP_USER_CLASS=&DHCP_USER_CLASS_LEN=&ALLOW_ONLY_ENCAPSULATED=on&DEFAULT_BOOTFILE=&CONGESTED=on&BACKOFF_LIMIT=7&TIMEOUT=180&TRY_FLOPPY_FIRST=0&EXIT_IF_NO_OFFER=on&TAGGED_IMAGE=on&ELF_IMAGE=on&PXE_IMAGE=on&DOWNLOAD_PROTO_TFTP=on&COMCONSOLE=0x3F8&CONSPEED=9600&COMPARM=0x03&PXE_EXPORT=on&CONFIG_PCI=on&CONFIG_ISA=on&BUILD_ID=&PCBIOS=on&PXE_DHCP_STRICT=on&A=Get+ROM The mkhex script in tools/firmware/hvmloader will make the header file from the downloaded image.
