E-mail: eranian@hpl.hp.com Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello, I have released a new version of the GNU-EFI package. This package is used to build EFI applications on Linux for both IA-32 and IA-64 architectures. This is a maintenance release with no new features just updates to support the latest GNU compilers: - updated linker scripts to support latest gcc sections. Provided by H.J. Lu from Intel. Special thanks to Jim Wilson for his help. - updated library to compile cleanly with gcc4.1. Provided by Raymund Will from SuSE I have tested the package on Linux/ia64 with Debian gcc-4.0.3 and binutils 2.16.91. With this, you can build a working elilo3.6. It compiles on Debian/i386 with gcc 4.0.3 and binutils 2.6.91. I dot have the setup to test i386 efi binaries. You can grab the package at: ftp://ftp.hpl.hp.com/pub/linux-ia64/gnu-efi-3.0c.tar.gz MD5SUM: 823e5f04d1c0a7b88831f91fbf12d470 This is the last gnu-efi release that I manage. I am handing over the maintenance of the package to Nigel Croxon from HP. Please forward any new questions to him from now on. He is copied on this announcement. Thanks. -- -Stephane
