3022 6002 d 13 h decky /branches/dd/ device drivers branch  
2610 6197 d 7 h jermar /trunk/ Support for six syscall arguments for sparc64.
There is a minor stability issue which needs to be fixed (kernel panics upon entering kconsole from the
console task).
 
2231 6418 d 7 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/ Fix a nasty bug in the TLB miss handlers on sparc64.
After we no longer lock the kernel stack in the DTLB,
there is a real danger of nested DTLB misses. The nested
miss can very easily clobber the DTLB Tag Access register.
Therefore, the original miss may not read this register, but
it has to receive its value as an argument. The argument
value is saved in the trap table when it is guaranteed that
the nested TLB miss will not occur.
 
2089 6489 d 10 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2071 6500 d 3 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2068 6507 d 10 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Formatting and indentation fixes.  
1978 6561 d 3 h jermar /trunk/ sparc64 code to support physical memory that starts on non-zero addresses.
Still needs to be tested on systems with such setup.
 
1954 6583 d 2 h jermar /trunk/ Minor changes. Some coding style fixes and also a type (tee vs. tree).
One AS -> as change.
 
1915 6601 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ A quote from from SPARC V9 specification:

The Y register is deprecated; it is provided only for compatibility with previous versions
of the architecture. It should not be used in new SPARC-V9 software. It is
recommended that all instructions that reference the Y register (i.e., SMUL,
SMULcc, UMUL, UMULcc, MULScc, SDIV, SDIVcc, UDIV, UDIVcc, RDY, and
WRY) be avoided. See the appropriate pages in Appendix A, “Instruction Definitions,”
for suitable substitute instructions.

Still gcc is generating code which uses Y and some of the instructions above.
This change modifies the preemptible_handler() to preserve the Y register
across preemption.
 
1911 6603 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Add support for interrupt mapping in the Sabre PCI controller.
Add support for PCI and EBUS interrupt mapping via the OpenFirmware device tree.
Unfortunatelly, the code is not capable enough to earn single ns16550 interrupt.
I suspect something needs to be enabled in the EBUS registers.
 
1904 6611 d 8 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ IPI/cross-call support for sparc64.
SMP on sparc64 is now fully supported.
 
1891 6621 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ sparc64 work:
- Experimental support for TSB (Translation Storage Buffer).
 
1888 6625 d 6 h jermar /trunk/ C99 compliant header guards (hopefully) everywhere in the kernel.
Formatting and indentation changes.
Small improvements in sparc64.
 
1887 6625 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/ When creating TLB mapping for the sparc64 kernel, enable CV (cacheable virtually) bit.
Also install locked mappings only in context 0.
 
1883 6626 d 9 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/ More sparc64 FPU trap handlers.  
1882 6626 d 10 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Support for sparc64 FPU context.  
1880 6629 d 2 h jermar /trunk/ Small improvements here and there.  
1870 6634 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Handle more sparc64 traps and improve handling of already handled traps.  
1865 6635 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ sparc64 kernel fixes  
1864 6636 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ sparc64 update.
- Prototype userspace layer implementation that
at least relates to sparc64 and compiles cleanly.
- Fixes for kernel's preemptible_handler and code
related to running userspace.
- Enable userspace. Several dozen instructions
are now run in userspace! We are pretty near
the userspace milestone for sparc64.
