Now that we have multiple firmware backends it no longer makes sense
to write object files to the same directory as their source. A better
solution is to write the object files to a per-firmware directory
under a top-level object directory.
The top-level object directory can be specified on the command-line
with the O= variable, e.g. make O=/tmp/obj. If no top-level object
directory is specified an 'obj' directory is created in the top-level
of the Syslinux source repository.
All the existing make targets continue to work as before, however now
they apply to all firmware backends, e.g. 'make installer' will build
the BIOS, 32-bit EFI and 64-bit EFI installers and place them under
$(OBJ)/bios, $(OBJ)/efi32 and $(OBJ)/efi64 respectively.
Note unlike every other bit of Syslinux, the gpxe objects are still
kept in the src directory, e.g. gpxe/src, since gpxe is only required
by the BIOS backend.
It is possible to specify a make target for a specific firmware or
list of firmware with the following syntax,
make [firmware[,firmware]] [target[,target]]
To clean the object directory for just the BIOS firmware type,
'make bios clean'
To build both the 32-bit and 64-bit EFI installers type,
'make efi32 efi64 installer'
Since the Syslinux make infrastructure is now more complex a new file
doc/building.txt has been created to explain how to build Syslinux.
The top-level Makefile now exports some make variables for use in
module Makefiles,
- topdir - the top-level source directory of the Syslinux
repository, e.g. /usr/src/syslinux
- objdir - the top-level object directory for the firmware
backend currently being built, e.g. /obj/syslinux/bios
- SRC - the source directory in the Syslinux repository for the
module currently being built,
e.g. /usr/src/syslinux/com32/libupload
- OBJ - the object directory for the module currently being
built, e.g. /obj/syslinux/bios/com32/libupload
Since we're rewriting the Makefile infrastructure anyway it seemed
like a good idea to add parallel support. By writing subdirectories as
prequisites for make targets the objects in those subdirectories can
be built in parallel.

Pertinent changes are sprinkled through *.mk and Makefile in the syslinux tree.
Build architecture is specified at the command line via ARCH macro. This is to enable whether
one is building for the native platform or cross-building for a different architecture. Currently,
the only supported architectures via ARCH macro are i386 and x86_64.
There are some modules (e.g. memdump) that don't build under the EFI environment. To go forward
with efi boot support, a separate EFI_BUILD=1 macro has been added and is required to be
specified while building. This is a temporary solution for the current build environment.
example build:
On a x86_64 platform, the following cross-builds syslinux for i386
To build for i386: make EFI_BUILD=1 ARCH=i386
On a x86_64 platform, the following builds syslinux for x86_64
To build natively: make EFI_BUILD=1
Changes specific to GCC and LD options:
Architecture specific flags and include/search directories are set up for GCC and LD commands.
Internally, GCC options such as stack-boundary, PIC and machine architecture are set up
based on ARCH macro. While stack-boundary=2 is fine for i386, it does not work for x86_64
and so it is left to the default value. Using -fPIE with gcc does not work with ld on x86_64,
but -fPIC works fine. Similarly, target and elf options are set up for linking
as approrpriate for architecture.
Assumption about gnu-efi install path:
Since the EFI build supports both EFI32 and EFI64, the following assumptions
are made with regard to the installed location of gnu-efi on the build platform.
1. gnu-efi-ia32: assumed installed in /usr/local
[ EFI-32 include files in /usr/local/include/efi and gnu-efi library in /usr/local/lib/ ]
2. gnu-efi-x86_64: assumed installed in /usr
[ EFI-64 include files in /usr/include/efi and gnu-efi library in /usr/lib64/ ]
Remanants of the unused old i386-only files, if any, need to be pruned.

Move the MCONFIG files into a mk/ directory and give them more
descriptive names.
This is purely a cosmetic change to make the 'include' directives a
bit more coherent by making it obvious exactly which MCONFIG file
we're including. For example, in com32/lua/src/Makefile we exchange
the line,
include ../../MCONFIG
for the much more comprehensible,
include $(MAKEDIR)/com32.mk

HPA noticed that using Fedora 15 Alpha and gcc-4.6 broke on this code
