[PATCH v2] Add hidden menu entries

The menu infrastructure is quite powerful. It allows you to define menu entries that can contain arbitrary grub commands that can do a lot more than just boot kernel entries. For some of these it makes sense to hide them inside the normal menu though and instead have them available through hotkeys

[PATCH] Rewrite and fix grub_bufio_read()

We had problems downloading large (10-100 MB) gziped files via http with grub. After some debugging, I think I have found the reason in grub_bufio_read, which leads to wrong data being passed on. This patch fixes the issues for me. I did my tests with a somewhat older snapshot, but the bufio.c fil

How to receive notification of a new (disk) device being connected?

I'm currently finalising a patch that adds key-file support to cryptodisk::cryptomount and luks. As well as being able to grub_device_iterate(hook,...) to search the existing devices for the key-file the code needs to wait for TIMEOUT seconds for additional (usually USB Mass Storage) devices t

[PATCH] efi term: open input console exlusively

We've had issues with a bunch of our EFI machines getting random console input from God knows where. This stops our provisioning because the timeout countdown stops as it thinks we pressed a button, which we most certaintly did not. So open the input console in exclusive mode to make sure only th

HTTP code should never return short reads. The whole subsystem relies on never having short reads from any fs or network driver Le ven. 29 avr. 2016 09:30, Stefan Fritsch a écrit : > On Thursday 28 April 2016 21:52:27, Stefan Fritsch wrote: > > You are right, I was misreading the second part of
