richlowe: randyf created it, in PSARC/2005/469 he said srn stands for "Suspend and Resume Notify"

I of course mangled it to "Suspend/Resume Notification" in gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1540 because I'm sloppy like that

[illumos-gate] 12249 rge: smatch errors -- Toomas Soome <tsoome⊙mc>

tsoome or others aswell. I am trying to boot a system via IPXE.efi and that can only download and execute efi images. our unix kernel is not an EFI image. So the question. can I chainload loader (7) somehow to then boot the kernel from https?

http at the current time is ok too

and the reason I am trying that, is that out bHyve now wont boot the ipxe.iso images anymore

due to us dropping BIOS ROM

toasterson is that bhyve actually using UEFI firmware?

tsoome , yes

dammit, this update still needs reboot, brb...

toasterson: As far as I know the loader only supports TFTP and NFS, not HTTP, for loading artefacts. It should in theory be possible to use iPXE to start loader over HTTP, as it appears to leave some kind of EFI driver in place to provide access to files, which it then proxies to the HTTP server -- except it doesn't work because loader isn't correctly recognising it as a file system or whatever

I was able to get the NFS stuff to work, at least

on reviewboard there was illumos.org/issues/11284 but it did receive no attention and is aging nicely in the corner of the disk atm.

→ FEATURE 11284: loader: add HTTP support using UEFI (In Progress)

I'm so glad someone else decided to understand this for me :)
