98646b9f01 [build] Allow for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of util/zbin
Parsing ELF data is simpler if we don't have to build a single binary
to handle both 32-bit and 64-bit ELF formats.

Allow for separate 32-bit and 64-bit binaries built from util/zbin.c
(as is already done for util/elf2efi.c).

dad2060260 [riscv] Allow for a non-zero link-time address
Using paging (rather than relocation records) will be easier on 64-bit
RISC-V if we place iPXE within the negative (kernel) virtual address
space.

Allow the link-time address to be non-zero and to vary between 32-bit
and 64-bit builds.  Choose addresses that are expected to be amenable
to the use of paging.

There is no particular need to use a non-zero address in the 32-bit
builds, but doing so allows us to validate that the relocation code is
handling this case correctly.

e0e102ee24 [sbi] Add support for running as a RISC-V SBI payload
Add basic support for running directly on top of SBI, with no UEFI
firmware present.  Build as e.g.:

  make CROSS=riscv64-linux-gnu- bin-riscv64/ipxe.sbi

The resulting binary can be tested in QEMU using e.g.:

  qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -cpu max -serial stdio \
                      -kernel bin-riscv64/ipxe.sbi

No drivers or executable binary formats are supported yet, but the
unit test suite may be run successfully.

5f7c6bd95b [profile] Standardise return type of profile_timestamp()
All consumers of profile_timestamp() currently treat the value as an
unsigned long.  Only the elapsed number of ticks is ever relevant: the
absolute value of the timestamp is not used.  Profiling is used to
measure short durations that are generally fewer than a million CPU
cycles, for which an unsigned long is easily large enough.

Standardise the return type of profile_timestamp() as unsigned long
across all CPU architectures.  This allows 32-bit architectures such
as i386 and riscv32 to omit all logic associated with retrieving the
upper 32 bits of the 64-bit hardware counter, which simplifies the
code and allows riscv32 and riscv64 to share the same implementation.

9bb2068636 [efi] Remove redundant EFI_BOOT_FILE definitions
As of commit 79c0173 ("[build] Create util/genfsimg for building
filesystem-based images"), the EFI boot file name for each CPU
architecture is defined within the genfsimg script itself, rather than
being passed in as a Makefile parameter.

Remove the now-redundant Makefile definitions for EFI_BOOT_FILE.

c215048dda [riscv] Add support for the RISC-V CPU architecture
Add support for building iPXE as a 64-bit or 32-bit RISC-V binary, for
either UEFI or Linux userspace platforms.  For example:

  # RISC-V 64-bit UEFI
  make CROSS=riscv64-linux-gnu- bin-riscv64-efi/ipxe.efi

  # RISC-V 32-bit UEFI
  make CROSS=riscv64-linux-gnu- bin-riscv32-efi/ipxe.efi

  # RISC-V 64-bit Linux
  make CROSS=riscv64-linux-gnu- bin-riscv64-linux/tests.linux
  qemu-riscv64 -L /usr/riscv64-linux-gnu/sys-root \
               ./bin-riscv64-linux/tests.linux

  # RISC-V 32-bit Linux
  make CROSS=riscv64-linux-gnu- SYSROOT=/usr/riscv32-linux-gnu/sys-root \
       bin-riscv32-linux/tests.linux
  qemu-riscv32 -L /usr/riscv32-linux-gnu/sys-root \
               ./bin-riscv32-linux/tests.linux
