Subject: [PATCH 2/4] x86_64 boot -v2: Add linked list of struct setup_data
Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2008 10:49:44 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1206672584.13404.25.camel@caritas-dev.intel.com> (raw)

This patch add a field of 64-bit physical pointer to NULL terminated
single linked list of struct setup_data to real-mode kernel
header. This is used as a more extensible boot parameters passing
mechanism.
