- different set of device control registers.
- non-standard access to the time base.
- 16 byte cache lines.

a pointer to current cpu's cpu_info structure. Use cpu_info for
intstk,intr_depth,still_stk,idle_pcb,curpcb,curlwp,etal even on
non-MULTIPROCESSOR machines. Add common macros GET_CPUINFO and
INIT_CPUINFO to get and initialize the cpu_info struct on startup. Make
ibm4xx use the standard <powerpc/frame.h>. Use IFRAME_xx in ibm4xx
trap_subr.S instead of explicit magic offsets. Move INTSTK and SPILLSTK
to std.<platform>. Change faultbuf to a struct instead of an array.
On MPC6XX cpus, stop using the vector page for temporary space and use
reserved space in cpu_info.
Move the trap/vector initialization for MPC6xx ports to mpc6xx_machdep.c
Also move softnet, install_extintr, mapiodev, kvtop. Add common BAT
initialization code.
Add user Altivec support.
Fix calls to OF_call_method in macppc/macppc/machdep.c.
Use ci_fpuproc in cpu_info instead of separate fpuproc.
Add separate syscall.c and defined __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN.
Calculate len separately for icache & dcache in case each has different
cacheline widths. Make the code for both loops the same except for the
dcbst/icbi. Deal with sizes >=2GB properly (like that'll happen but ...)
sizes and line sizes. This is needed for cache flusing, clearing
memory, and several other operations. This information is accessible
from userland through a new CPU_CACHEINFO sysctl.
Enforce -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes for all ppc ports.
Split out macppc cpu support and make common to mpc6xx ports. Make
other mpc6xx ports use it. Add evcnts for mpc6xx traps.
