sys/bswap.h in order to pick up the MD inline routines and the constant
folding definitions in the right order.
Code can include either sys/bswap.h or machine/bswap.h with the same effect.
and install ${TOOLDIR}/bin/${MACHINE_GNU_PLATFORM}-disklabel,
${TOOLDIR}/bin/${MACHINE_GNU_PLATFORM}-fdisk by "reaching over" to
the sources in ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/sbin/{disklabel fdisk}/.
To avoid clashes with a build-host's header files, especially on
*BSD, the host-tools versions of fdisk and disklabel search for
#includes such as disklabel.h, disklabel_acorn.h, disklabel_gpt.h,
and bootinfo.h in a new #includes namespace, nbinclude/. That is,
they #include <nbinclude/sys/disklabel.h>, <nbinclude/machine/disklabel.h>,
<nbinclude/sparc64/disklabel.h>, instead of <sys/disklabel.h> and
such. I have also updated the system headers to #include from
nbinclude/-space when HAVE_NBTOOL_CONFIG_H is #defined.
- Clean up the way cpu-specific tlb/cache functions are configured
and used.
- Add a workaround for a problem whereby cpu* at superhyway? fails
to probe.
- Print more info about the cpu/cache.
- Move the RESVEC handlers back into generic sh5 code and ditch
the panic stack hack.
- Make the on-chip SCIF device the default console on Cayman.
- Add experimental support for booting via a standalone bootstrap
program (not yet committed) and using the boot parameters passed
in by it.
- Add a few more SH elf constants.
- Tick a couple of items off the TODO list.
counters. These counters do not exist on all CPUs, but where they
do exist, can be used for counting events such as dcache misses that
would otherwise be difficult or impossible to instrument by code
inspection or hardware simulation.
pmc(9) is meant to be a general interface. Initially, the Intel XScale
counters are the only ones supported.
simple config file option.
Also, don't hard code the endian setting in a header file. Rely instead
on the compiler defining __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ and DTRT as appropriate.
SH-5, meet NetBSD.
Let's hope this is the start of a long and fruitful relationship. :-)
This code, funded by Wasabi Systems, adds initial support for the
Hitachi SuperH(tm) SH-5 cpu architecture to NetBSD.
At the present time, NetBSD/evbsh5 only runs on a SH-5 core simulator
which has no simulated devices other than a simple console. However, it
is good enough to get to the "root device: " prompt.
Device driver support for Real SH-5 Hardware is in place, particularly for
supporting the up-coming Cayman evaluation board, and should be quite
easy to get running when the hardware is available.
There is no in-tree toolchain for this port at this time. Gcc-current has
rudimentary SH-5 support but it is known to be buggy. A working toolchain
was obtained from SuperH to facilitate this port. Gcc-current will be
fixed in due course.
The SH-5 architecture is fully 64-bit capable, although NetBSD/evbsh5 has
currently only been tested in 32-bit mode. It is bi-endian, via a boot-
time option and it also has an "SHcompact" mode in which it will execute
SH-[34] user-land instructions.
For more information on the SH-5, see www.superh.com. Suffice to say it
is *not* just another respin of the SH-[34].
