With 'GNU assembler (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.39.90.20221231' the
build now reports:
arch/x86/realmode/rm/../../boot/bioscall.S: Assembler messages:
arch/x86/realmode/rm/../../boot/bioscall.S:35: Warning: found `movsd'; assuming `movsl' was meant
arch/x86/realmode/rm/../../boot/bioscall.S:70: Warning: found `movsd'; assuming `movsl' was meant
arch/x86/boot/bioscall.S: Assembler messages:
arch/x86/boot/bioscall.S:35: Warning: found `movsd'; assuming `movsl' was meant
arch/x86/boot/bioscall.S:70: Warning: found `movsd'; assuming `movsl' was meant
Which is due to:
PR gas/29525
Note that with the dropped CMPSD and MOVSD Intel Syntax string insn
templates taking operands, mixed IsString/non-IsString template groups
(with memory operands) cannot occur anymore. With that
maybe_adjust_templates() becomes unnecessary (and is hence being
removed).
More details: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29525
Borislav Petkov further explains:
" the particular problem here is is that the 'd' suffix is
"conflicting" in the sense that you can have SSE mnemonics like movsD %xmm...
and the same thing also for string ops (which is the case here) so apparently
the agreement in binutils land is to use the always accepted suffixes 'l' or 'q'
and phase out 'd' slowly... "

The .inittext section tries to aggregate all functions which are
needed to get a message out in the case of a load failure. However,
putchar() uses intcall(), so intcall() should be in the .inittext
section.

This reverts commit 28b48688 ("x86, boot: use .code16gcc instead
of .code16").
Versions of binutils older than 2.16 are already not working, so this
workaround is no longer necessary either. At the same time, some of
the transformations that .code16gcc does can be *extremely*
counterintuitive to a human programmer.

Use .code16gcc to compile arch/x86/boot/bioscall.S rather than
.code16, since some older versions of binutils can't generate 32-bit
addressing expressions (67 prefixes) in .code16 mode, only in
.code16gcc mode.

Impact: Comment change only
The glove box is about avoiding problems with *registers* being
touched, not *memory*.

Impact: new interfaces (not yet used)
For all the platforms out there, there is an infinite number of buggy
BIOSes. This adds infrastructure to treat BIOS interrupts more like
toxic waste and "glove box" them -- we switch out the register set,
perform the BIOS interrupt, and then restore the previous state.
