Abstract away some names so one can select using EFI_PROVIDER a different class than grub-efi for populating live images, basically allowing the use of a different bootloader than grub-efi.

To generate the target EFI image in a native package, it requires the host gcc have the ability to do -m32/-m64 compiling, but gcc doesn't have that support on the 32bit version of some distributions (e.g. rehl, suse), it would fail when build a 64bit target on these 32bit hosts. In fact, all we need from grub-efi-native is the grub-mkimage binary, so change the solution to: * grub-efi-native only install grub-mkimage * grub-efi compiles target modules, generates EFI image with grub-mkimage and deploy, but install nothing.

Some revs of the EFI firmware + shell do not automatically setup the path in a such a way as to execute a binary without an absolute reference like "FS0:\EFI\BOOT\bootx64.efi". All the versions that I have tested work properly by simply calling the binary which is in the EFI\BOOT directory by name like "bootx64.efi". The error you see on the console looks like the following: startup.nsh> EFI\BOOT\bootx64.efi 'EFI\BOOT\bootx64.efi' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file Shell> This patch simply drops the EFI\BOOT for greater compatibility.

When boot-directdisk class is used and EFI boot is set the
grub-efi-${TRANSLATED_TARGET_ARCH}-native need to be dependent.

The various populate methods need to accept a path as an argument vs
using hard expanded variables. In the case of the boot-directdisk
class it uses a different path for HDDDIR but it gets eclipsed by the
the class definition at the point in time ${HDDDIR} gets expanded.
The logical fix is to pass the arguments to the functions as opposed
to using globally expanded variables from the class definitions.
This patch changes 3 things:
1) syslinux_hddimg_populate takes an argument for the destination
2) syslinux_iso_populate takes an argument for the destination
3) populate is changed to boot_direct_populate because there
was a conflict with it overriding the populate in bootimg.bbclass

The syslinux.bbclass already has support for automatically generated serial and graphics menu choices. This patch adds the same concept to the grub-efi menu. That makes it possible to generate a single image which can boot on a PCBIOS or EFI firmware with consistent looking boot options.

Using the latest mkisofs it is possible to generate 3 different types
of ISO images, which can be used in various scenarios.
1) PCBIOS Only ISO
- This option remains unchanged by this commit
- Uses syslinux menus
- Can be directly copied with dd to a USB device
- Can be burned to optical media
2) EFI Only ISO
- Uses grub 2 menus
- Can be burned to optical media
- If you want to use this image on a USB device
extra steps must be taken in order to format the USB
device with fat32, and copy an EFI loader which will
in turn load the iso image
3) PCBIOS / EFI ISO
- This is a hybrid image ISO that will work for case 1 or 2
as above with the same restrictions and boot menu types
depending on what type of firmware is installed on
the hardware or depending on if EFI or "Legacy Boot" is
enabled on some UEFI firmwares.
The syslinux.bbclass is now always required because that is where the
isohybrid dependencies come from as well as the configuration data for
the isohybrid. The isohybrid is the secret sauce which allows the ISO
to work as optical media or as a disk image on USB or a HDD/SSD.

[YOCTO #1919] Create a basic EFI installer script modeled after the existing installer and add it to a new initramfs-live-install-efi recipe. Update the init-live.sh script to distinguish between LABEL=install and LABEL=install-efi and select the appropriate script. Add the efi installer to core-image-minimal-initramfs. Update grub-efi.bbclass to use "LABEL=install-efi" when it detects a label of "install". This is clearly not ideal, but a proper fix would involve decoupling the LABELS assignment from the image-live.bbclass usage of SYSLINUX_LABELS. We should be able to address that in a follow-on clean-up series.
