RU5.28.0396 BETA

This version fixed mainly SIO and keyboard not working properly.  But I just did some very limited tests and some are not even tested.  Please note that It's not guaranteed that it works as expected.

 

Notes: This version of RU.EFI does not work properly on displaying charcters, will be fixed soon.

Fix

• Fix RU can't remember SIO LDN
  
• Possibly fix the problem of reading keyboard input
• Fix the problem of showing many non-existed SIOs
• Possibly fix RU /L for SMBUS not working
  

RU /Sxx (Safe mode)

        xx stands for bits, for examples: RU /S4 means to skip SIO detection

• BIT0=1: Read MTRR only for ALT-8 CPU
  
• BIT1=1: Display readings from keyboard
  
• BIT2=1: Skip detecting SIO
• BIT3=1: Skip initializing text mode

RU 5.27.0388 BETA

This version mainly add a test switch in command line for debugging keyboard combination problems.

Also it fixes the problem of "Save all PCI devices" resulting wrong data saved when 32-bit width is selected as reported by an user.

NOTE: It has not been tested, any wrong readings can be happened.

Command line "/S"

• RU /S2
• It shows RU key codes on the top of the screen when a key is pressed
  
• RU /S1
• It will only access CPU MTRRs, not all MSRs.  This is to avoid the hang while reading full set of MSRs

RU 5.26.0386 BETA

This version only fixes dome problem.  The main change is that RU takes too much time on some system scanning PCI devices.

NOTE: I didn't test it at all so it could be buggy.

• Fix PCI hangs with PCI device base code 0xa.
• Add IDE/AHCI prefix to ALT-5(HDD detection) device name
• Fix "RU /L" loading file error
• Fix SMBIOS data not restored after re-enter RU
• SIO: Fix it detected lots of non-existed SIOs on some systems
• Fix ACPI table displayed wrong MCFG/FPDT/DMAR/DBG2 details
• Add new ACPI UEFI table
• Previously RU scan all PCI functions unconditionally for better compatibility but it takes time. It is changed to scan PCI functions only if it's multi-function
  
• Use Shift-F6  for scanning PCI functions unconditionally.
• Fix SPD ALT-0 read failed (error: not existed)

Known issues: 

•  All characters typed will be converted to lower cases

RU 5.25.0379 Beta

This release was requested by an user to support detecting multiple SIO.  Again, not all functions are tested. 

I am also surprised some of bugs existed for a long time but no one reported to me XD

• Support Exar SIO detection
• Support for detecting up to 6 SIOs at the same time (NOT TESTED)
• Fix ACPI (ALT-6) hangs on Intel Menlow platform
• Ctrl-S is replaced by Ctrl-U to toggle sound
• Fix some strings displaying problems

Tutorial: Type to find string

On any screen like below, you can just type any key to start the "find" dialog, so you don't need to browse the name one by one.  This has been done for years but I doubt anyone knows that.

Below is an example on variable (ALT-=) selection screen:

RU 5.24.0370 Beta

Features

• List all available MSRs from #0 - #1000 even for those MSRs not recorded in RU name database

• Add page number displayed for CPU MSR
• SIO: Add Fintek vendor IDs for auto-detection (NOT-TESTED)

• Command line mode ` : All functions key are allowed (not sure is there will be any side effects)
