ToH kernel source patch released

[sam]

We diceded to release patch for kernel source of macosx.

It misses apple’s key for encrypted apps, but u can easily find it over network and add to code(remove #error line after it)

Please respect hard work of guys made it (List in readme) and don’t violate license for patches.

we open the source hoping someone who has the time and is willing to code would code the following: amd64, speedstep&sleep, etc.

On behalf of the devs who are not part of the inner circle but who are working on other Apple related projects, I give a big "thank you" for doing this.

Having source code for Apple related projects can sometimes make a big difference in the amount of effort required to understand the inner working and solve issues that are completely unrelated.

A good example of this is decoding the flat device boot tree passed during EFI boot. As the author of atv-bootloader (completely open source) for booting Linux on the AppleTV, I need this information to find the boot device so I could properly pass this information to the Linux kernel. No open source code exists even though this function is done in OSx86 to fix up the flat device tree for non-Apple hardware. So I had to create this from scratch which took a few days away from the main focus. I've posted this information so that others in a similar situation can use it and adapt to their needs and not waste their time re-creating decoding routines.

Once again, Thanks for doing this, I for one, appreciate the effort.

Scott
