- balloc() only needs to know how to allocate memory.&lt;br /&gt;
- Memory allocated via balloc() is supposed to be passed to kernel and never freed by boot itself.&lt;br /&gt;
- make kernel aware of boot allocations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More work on OFW device tree:&lt;br /&gt;
- use balloc() to efficiently and safely allocate memory for the canonical copy of the device tree&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
sparc64 boot:&lt;br /&gt;
- pass OFW device tree root node pointer to kernel&lt;/div&gt;~ /trunk/boot/arch/sparc64/loader/main.c&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/boot/arch/sparc64/loader/main.h&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/boot/arch/sparc64/loader/Makefile&lt;br /&gt;+ /trunk/boot/genarch/balloc.c&lt;br /&gt;+ /trunk/boot/genarch/balloc.h&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/boot/genarch/ofw_tree.c&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/boot/genarch/ofw_tree.h&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/include/boot/boot.h&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/sparc64.c&lt;br /&gt;+ /trunk/kernel/genarch/include/ofw&lt;br /&gt;+ /trunk/kernel/genarch/include/ofw/ofw_tree.h &lt;i&gt;(copied from /trunk/boot/genarch/ofw_tree.h@1893)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/kernel/genarch/Makefile.inc&lt;br /&gt;+ /trunk/kernel/genarch/src/ofw&lt;br /&gt;+ /trunk/kernel/genarch/src/ofw/ofw_tree.c&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/kernel/generic/include/config.h&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/kernel/generic/src/main/main.c&lt;br /&gt;~ /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/frame.c&lt;br /&gt;</description><link>https://historic.helenos.org/revision.php?repname=HelenOS&amp;path=%2F%2Ftrunk%2Fboot%2Fgenarch%2Fballoc.h&amp;rev=1894&amp;peg=2000</link><guid>https://historic.helenos.org/revision.php?repname=HelenOS&amp;path=%2F%2Ftrunk%2Fboot%2Fgenarch%2Fballoc.h&amp;rev=1894&amp;peg=2000</guid></item>
