* feat(bls): read PE sections without loading the whole image
* feat(bls): produce entries from unified kernel images
* feat(bls): boot unified kernel images as type 2 entries
Scan the EFI/Linux directory, or the new uki-path option of the BLS
generator, for .efi files and turn each one into an entry using the
metadata in its PE sections. Autoconfigure now also detects a disk that
only has unified kernel images. An image with the id of a type 1 entry is
skipped, and boot counting works on the .efi file name.
* fix(boot): rename boot counter files in place instead of copying them
* fix(bls): skip hidden files and keep unified kernel images when the type 1 scan fails
Check file name suffixes without slicing by byte offset, drop the PE
section bytes once an image has been parsed, and only fail the generator
on a type 1 error when unified kernel images are disabled.
Read \loader\loader.conf from the partition Sprout was loaded from and
use its default and timeout as the lowest priority source. Sprout now
picks the timeout in this order: LoaderConfigTimeoutOneShot,
--menu-timeout, the configuration, LoaderConfigTimeout, loader.conf. The
default entry order is the configuration, LoaderEntryDefault, loader.conf,
and a source that matches no entry falls through to the next one.
To tell an explicit menu-timeout from the built-in default, the
configuration option is now optional. Existing files are unaffected.
A loader.conf default of @saved selects the entry in
LoaderEntryLastBooted and saves the booted entry there on every boot.
After consuming a boot counter try, publish the renamed entry file in
LoaderBootCountPath and advertise the boot counting and saved entry
features.
* feat(menu): add a graphical boot menu
Adds the graphical menu style, selected with menu-style = "graphical" or
--menu-style=graphical. It draws to the graphics output with the existing
framebuffer, using a built-in 8x8 font, and takes input from the keyboard
and from relative or absolute pointers. The Sprout logo is drawn in the
bottom right corner. If there is no graphics output, the simple menu is
used, which still falls back to the basic menu.
The logo is converted from assets/logo-small.png to raw pixels by the build
crate, which adds the png crate as a build-time dependency only.
The default menu style is still simple. Pointer input is untested, as
OVMF has no mouse driver.
* fix(build): only build the logo conversion on the host
CI builds the whole workspace for the UEFI target, which also builds the
build crate for UEFI. The png dependency pulls in simd-adler32, which
crashes LLVM on that target. The logo conversion only runs in build
scripts on the host, so png and the conversion are now left out when
targeting UEFI.
Generators can now declare variant axes. Every generated entry is
multiplied by each combination of choices, one per axis. A choice sets
the axis name to the choice name and inserts its own values, and the
entry name is suffixed with the choice names.
Generators can also declare exclude rules, which remove generated
entries whose values match every glob pattern in a rule. This covers
unwanted variant combinations and entries like BLS rescue kernels.
Entry matching for default-entry and the bootloader interface now
accepts `*` anywhere in the pattern instead of only at the end, so
generated entry names can be matched regardless of the kernel version
in the middle of the name.
The BLS generator gains a pin-names option (default true, the existing
behavior). Two BLS generators reading the same directory previously
produced entries with identical names; disabling pin-names prefixes
them with the generator name instead. Sprout now warns when more than
one entry has the same name.
* docs(config): note that variants suffix pinned BLS entry names
Pinned BLS entry names match the BLS entry ids, but variants still
append their choice names, so those entries need a pattern like
<id>-* to be selected.
RootConfiguration derived Default, which set menu-timeout to 0 and the
version to 0, while an empty configuration file gets a 10 second
timeout and the latest version. --autoconfigure uses the default
configuration, so it booted the first entry without showing the menu.
Implement Default with the same values serde uses.
Add linux-initrd-chain to the chainload action and initrd-chain to the
edera action. Each file in the list is read in order and concatenated
into a single initrd. The chain can't be combined with the single
initrd option on the same action.
BLS entries with multiple initrds, either as repeated initrd lines or
as multiple paths on one line, previously only loaded the last one.
Parse all of them and set them in the initrd-0 through initrd-7 slots,
which the autoconfigured BLS action now chains. Unused slots stamp to
the filesystem root and are skipped. Entries with more than 8 initrds
are skipped with a warning.
The boot menu is now a BootMenu trait with two styles. The basic menu is
the existing one that prints entries and selects them by number. The new
simple menu is full-screen: entries are centered and highlighted, the
arrow keys, home, end, page up and page down move the selection, enter
boots it, and any key stops the countdown.
The style is picked with --menu-style or menu-style in [options], and
defaults to simple. The timer code used to wait for a key is shared
between both menus in menu.rs.
