| 1 | TODO List for Chameleon Boot Loader␊ |
| 2 | ====================================␊ |
| 3 | ␊ |
| 4 | - Add a new module capable of writing proprietary Chameleon data to ioreg:␊ |
| 5 | Using the DT__xxx() API, we will creat e a set of functions to write␊ |
| 6 | to log info, chameleon boot info to be retrieved by helper applications...␊ |
| 7 | the only public function for log info purpose of this module would be:␊ |
| 8 | logMessageToIOREG(...); // var args printf style format␊ |
| 9 | flushLogToIOREG(); // store a unique log info property to the ioreg␊ |
| 10 | ␊ |
| 11 | The preferred internal behavior of the log info ioreg buffer␊ |
| 12 | would be to store the messages in a consolidated buffer then only write once,␊ |
| 13 | this buffer (i.e just before call the kernel) with flushLogToIOREG();␊ |
| 14 | The other public function for writing chameleon boot info data would be:␊ |
| 15 | ␊ |
| 16 | verbose() should incorporate a call to logMessageToIOREG() ␊ |
| 17 | to permit helper applications to extract␊ |
| 18 | this log info (i.e: the chameleon system pref pane)␊ |
| 19 | ␊ |
| 20 | - Add API for displaying and logging messages like:␊ |
| 21 | ␊ |
| 22 | void verbose(...)␊ |
| 23 | {␊ |
| 24 | ...␊ |
| 25 | logMessageToIOREG("%s: %sn", title, s);␊ |
| 26 | ␊ |
| 27 | }␊ |
| 28 | ␊ |
| 29 | void display_and_log( const char* title, const char* msg) ␊ |
| 30 | {␊ |
| 31 | printf("%s: %sn", title, s);␊ |
| 32 | logMessageToIOREG(title,s);␊ |
| 33 | }␊ |
| 34 | ␊ |
| 35 | void deprecated(const char * s)␊ |
| 36 | {␊ |
| 37 | display_and_log("WARNING: Deprecated option",s); ␊ |
| 38 | sleep(1); ␊ |
| 39 | }␊ |
| 40 | ␊ |
| 41 | void error_message(const char * s)␊ |
| 42 | {␊ |
| 43 | display_and_log("ERROR",s); ␊ |
| 44 | getc();␊ |
| 45 | }␊ |
| 46 | ␊ |
| 47 | - Case unsensitive parsing for the bootConfig options:␊ |
| 48 | should help the common/novice user to setup more easily.␊ |
| 49 | |
