! 3: ## Unfinished Projects
! 4:
! 5: ### x86 UEFI kernel loader
! 6: Building this for x64 UEFI requires the `ms_abi` function attribute introduced in GCC 4.4 or so.
! 7: This project uses Intel UEFI headers and some existing FreeBSD work.
! 8: Needs more work and cleanup, also toolchain updates.
! 9: Work has been done using the OVMF BIOS images for Qemu.
! 10:
! 11: ### bcm47xx for evbmips
! 12: Boots multiuser on NFS root, needs more work and cleanup.
! 13: This project is on hold until there's a miniature userland that fits in 4-8MiB flash storage devices, on a flash-oriented file system.
! 14: [[!template id=man name="bce" section="4"]] and [[!template id=man name="bwi" section="4"]] would need refactoring to be bus-independent.
! 15:
! 16: ### Conexant PCI DTV driver
! 17: I have some code for 23880-3 and 887 host interfaces.
! 18: This type of hardware is hard to find freely available docs for.
! 19: Tuner/demod drivers from Linux could be ported, but would still be GPLed.
! 20: Probably better to keep these drivers in userland.
! 21:
! 22: Should try to coordinate with what FreeBSD is doing: <http://wiki.freebsd.org/HDTV>.
! 23:
! 24: ### Memory-mapped PCI config access on x86
! 25: Still need to figure out how pcitag_t will work for a 3rd mode that can't be switched on until after ACPI is initialized.
! 26: Existing code I have assumes that no tags are generated until mmconf is turned on, which is not a reasonable assumption to make.
! 27:
! 28: ## Possible Projects
! 29: ### AMD PowerNow/Cool'n'Quiet states loaded from ACPI tables
