1- Nvidia injection fix
2- pciroot would not always return correct uuid in autodection mode
3- Fixed the hibernation problem in boot2/resume.c
4- Fixed all new booter versions with SystemType would override the facp value even if correct,
5 now keeps the facp value if correct and no override has been done, implemented a best effort algo.
6 for maximizing the chance to get the most correct value before we decide to use a fixed value (1=desktop)
7- Fixed display cosmetics of UUID, now a convert.c file contains all
8 conversions api, to be completed by function that we should reuse.
9
10- Fixed SystemType would be always forced to a value, now optionally changed
11 only if ovveriden
12- Kept SystemID as the only option to change manually the system-id
13 For theses reasons, SystemId from bootConfig and SMUUID from smbiosConfig aer now DEPRECATED.
14
15- Integrated JrCs fadt patch (kept for RC5 the existing DSDT.aml retry algo that disapeared in his patch, should be more discussed for RC6)
16- Added JrCs modified convention name change to coding_standards
17- Now malloc (ex. MALLOC in Asere patch) is renamed malloc(size) and is an alias
18 to safe_malloc(size, file, line) with _FILE_ and _LINE_ prerocessor definitions
19- Added a new 'Rename Partition Feature', now permitting to rename partition
20 like 'System reserved' to a more meaningful name
21- Added SystemID option permitting to change the System UUID to a fixed value.
22- Added the PciRoot autodetection feature imported from pcefi10.5
23- Added automatic "system-id" injection from dmi bios, also compatible
24 with SystemID boot option and former SMUUID from smbios,plist
25- Added "system-type' automatic injection (1=Desktop) plus override possibility
26 with the new system-type option in bootConfig
27- Added SMserial and SMproductname new options for smbios.plist
28- Merged with asere patch, while keeping my fake_efi.c changes, and adding a new
29 stringForKey() API, also changed the DT__XXXX() set of functions
30 to handle const char * values instead of char*.
31- Added full ACPI tables override.
32- Added ACPI V1 to V4 conversion, also auto generates XSDT from RSDT if needed.
33- Added force USB legacy off patch.
34
35- Implemented SPD memory automatic detection and injection,seems to work really great ...- Factorized code to prepare a dynamic memory detection algorithm ...- Optimized smbios table address search- Optimized cursor spinout in textmode if no verbose mode is set- Added ram table structures definitions- Added getSmbios() a param permitting to select between orig and new smbios entries- Changed "Default Partition" behaviour to accept only native system volumes or foreign partitions.- Added NVIDIA new NVCAP customization support and support for ION gfx cards from aserebln- Added ATI new framebuffers support and new cards from PCEFI10.6- improved ACPI file search algo by implementing a cache.
36- Dropped loadable SSDT number from 30 to 14 tables.
37- Added devices 2A42 and 2A43 to GMAX3100 support.
38- Corrected Intel Core Solo/Duo identifier string.
39- Added support for device 2a40 into 915resolution.
40- Added a variant of boot0 (boot0hfs) which prefers a bootable HFS partition in the first MBR partition scan.
41- Applied easternguy's (long long) cast changes for filesystem functions.
