I wrote the MD part for the FreeBSD/sparc64 loader; it has been tested on a Sun Ultra 5 (I bought one for porting FreeBSD) and works without problems. It boots (presently from a NetBSD UFS partition) a standalone FreeBSD kernel, which consists only of the MD part (pmap stuff, traps, syscalls, ...) I wrote so far, and executes it. Many type changes in src/sys/boot/ofw/libofw for openfirm.* and harddisk support stuff in ofw_disk.c were needed - libofw as it is in the tree - is completely broken for LP64. Can we *please* rename this port to FreeBSD/sparcv9? This is in my opinion much more appropriate, because there might be 64 bit SPARC processors in the future that are not V9 compatible and can thus not be supported by this port. (and all my code uses "sparcv9", "__sparcv9__", ...) If anyone is interested in this code, just tell me. Since I do not want the situation stay in the current nothing-happening state for the next years, I could `maintain` this port if you think this makes sense. ciao, -robert To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-sparc Mon Jul 9 2: 8:17 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-sparc@freebsd.org Received: from relay.nuxi.com (nuxi.cs.ucdavis.edu [169.237.7.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9DE3237B403 for ; Mon, 9 Jul 2001 02:08:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from obrien@nuxi.ucdavis.edu) Received: from dragon.nuxi.com (root@trang.nuxi.com [206.40.252.115]) by relay.nuxi.com (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f6998ER26616; Mon, 9 Jul 2001 02:08:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from obrien@NUXI.com) Received: (from obrien@localhost) by dragon.nuxi.com (8.11.3/8.11.1) id f6998D892106; Mon, 9 Jul 2001 02:08:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from obrien) Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2001 02:08:09 -0700 From: "David O'Brien" To: Robert Drehmel Cc: freebsd-sparc@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: port progress note Message-ID: <20010709020809.E15863@dragon.nuxi.com> Reply-To: obrien@FreeBSD.org References: <20010709105328.A1149@obelix.develop.ferrari.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i In-Reply-To: <20010709105328.A1149@obelix.develop.ferrari.net>; from robert@ferrari.de on Mon, Jul 09, 2001 at 10:53:28AM +0200 X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT Organization: The NUXI BSD group X-Pgp-Rsa-Fingerprint: B7 4D 3E E9 11 39 5F A3 90 76 5D 69 58 D9 98 7A X-Pgp-Rsa-Keyid: 1024/34F9F9D5 Sender: owner-freebsd-sparc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On Mon, Jul 09, 2001 at 10:53:28AM +0200, Robert Drehmel wrote: > I wrote the MD part for the FreeBSD/sparc64 loader; > it has been tested on a Sun Ultra 5 (I bought one How do we get it to review it? > Can we *please* rename this port to FreeBSD/sparcv9? > This is in my opinion much more appropriate, because > there might be 64 bit SPARC processors in the future > that are not V9 compatible and can thus not be supported > by this port.

I'd say this should be handled "on demand", ie. when a new Sparc Architecture comes out and people realise a seperate port is needed, that _then_ a new port is done, but not before.
