relocate()

__asmcall void relocate

(

struct i386_all_regs *

ix86

)

Relocate iPXE.

Parameters

ebp	Maximum address to use for relocation

Return values

esi	Current physical address
edi	New physical address
ecx	Length to copy

This finds a suitable location for iPXE near the top of 32-bit address space, and returns the physical address of the new location to the prefix in edi.
