The relocatable kernel code needs a scratch field for the decompressor to determine its own location. It was using a location inside struct screen_info; reserve a free location and document it as scratch instead. Signed-off-by: H.

Summary of boot_params layout (kernel point of view)
|
|
( collected by Hans Lermen and Martin Mares )
|
|
|
|
The contents of boot_params are used to pass parameters from the
|
|
16-bit realmode code of the kernel to the 32-bit part. References/settings
|
|
to it mainly are in:
|
|
|
|
arch/i386/boot/setup.S
|
|
arch/i386/boot/video.S
|
|
arch/i386/kernel/head.S
|
|
arch/i386/kernel/setup.c
|
|
|
|
|
|
Offset Type Description
|
|
------ ---- -----------
|
|
0 32 bytes struct screen_info, SCREEN_INFO
|
|
ATTENTION, overlaps the following !!!
|
|
2 unsigned short EXT_MEM_K, extended memory size in Kb (from int 0x15)
|
|
0x20 unsigned short CL_MAGIC, commandline magic number (=0xA33F)
|
|
0x22 unsigned short CL_OFFSET, commandline offset
|
|
Address of commandline is calculated:
|
|
0x90000 + contents of CL_OFFSET
|
|
(only taken, when CL_MAGIC = 0xA33F)
|
|
0x40 20 bytes struct apm_bios_info, APM_BIOS_INFO
