$NetBSD: TODO,v 1.25 2007/03/04 09:09:10 tsutsui Exp $
|
|
|
|
To do list (in some particular order)
|
|
XXX some entries might be obsolete.
|
|
|
|
o sysinst
|
|
maybe MD fdisk partitioning support is required to load files
|
|
from FAT partition on ARC BIOS prompt.
|
|
|
|
o install notes
|
|
|
|
|
|
o use MI driver
|
|
|
|
- make fd driver MI, and share it with other ports
|
|
(contact christos about MI fd driver)
|
|
|
|
- use MI bha driver instead of home grown btl
|
|
XXX needs fixes of DESKstation support
|
|
|
|
o VXL framebuffer support (Magnum, RISCstation 2200)
|
|
|
|
o com_jazzio.c
|
|
- clock handling clean up (obtain from ARC BIOS)
|
|
- fifo disabling may be only needed on some Magnum?
|
|
|
|
o remove pccons and switch to wscons completely
|
|
(XXX what's the problem to remove pccons?)
|
|
|
|
o AD1848 audio support
|
|
|
|
o missing MI devices
|
|
ses?, vcoda, ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
o Xserver
|
|
|
|
- VXL Magnum, RISCstation 2200
|
|
- vga/S3 PICA, Image RISCstation - OpenBSD's?
|
|
- vga/cirrus RISCserver 2200, Express5800/240 R4400 EISA
|
|
- vga/??? DESKstation Tyne, rPC44
|
|
- TGA RISCstation 2250, Express5800/230 R4400 PCI
|
|
|
|
o Find out why bitmap load to S3-928 flashes screen. (X server)
|
|
Know why (enable linear mode). Need S3 info.
|
|
|
|
|
|
o repair DESKstation support
|
|
- requires bounce buffer bus_dma for Tyne
|
|
XXX - too small bounce buffer size (128KB)
|
|
|
|
o Olivetti M700 support
|
|
|
|
o NEC Express5800/230 R10000 PCI (NEC-J95) support
|
|
(needs MI R10000 support)
|
|
|
|
o SNI RM200PCI/RM300/RM400/RM600 support
|
|
|
|
|
|
o parse ARC BIOS configuration information and use it
|
|
|
|
o increase MAXPHYS to 64KB
|
|
(XXX why is it limited to 32KB?)
|
|
|
|
o fix kernel start address
|
|
(maybe requires bootloader support)
|
|
|
|
o allocate PICA_TL_BASE dynamically
|
|
|
|
o remove inb/outb
|
|
|
|
o remove UADDR
|
|
|
|
o fix mem_clusters[] usage.
|
|
|
|
o intrcnt[] name cleanup, use MI evcnt(9)
|
|
|
|
o test and merge soren's clean up about proc0.p_addr.
|
|
|
|
o redesign interrupt handler framework.
|
|
i/o bus devices should have sane IPL, but currently doesn't.
|
|
|
|
o make CLKF_INTR() work.
|
|
|
|
o it is better to always disable the MIPS3 internal timer interrupts
|
|
(i.e. MIPS_INT_MASK_5) if it is not needed for the system.
|
|
those are the points which should be fixed:
|
|
mips_idle: li t0, (MIPS_INT_MASK | MIPS_SR_INT_IE)
|
|
machdep.c: curpcb->pcb_context[11] = MIPS_INT_MASK | MIPS_SR_INT_IE;
|
|
spl0()
|
|
splnone()
|
|
|
|
o XXX at least 2000/06/07 version is already quite unstable
|
|
on PICA and NEC Image RISCstation. (but almost OK on Magnum)
|
|
Userland commands dumps core randomly.
|
|
This version is before _MIPS_PADDR_T_64BIT changes
|
|
and MIPS3_TLB_WIRED_UPAGES changes.
|
|
|
|
"vm_page_zero_enable = FALSE" makes this problem disappeared.
|
|
(vm_page_zero_enable = FALSE by default on all archs w/ UBC, now)
|
|
|
|
currently, page zero in the idle loop is also disabled on
|
|
untested platforms like DESKstation rPC44/Tyne and SNI for safety.
|
|
|
|
XXX what's the current status of uvm_pageidlezero()?
|
|
|
|
|
|
o resolve "XXX"
|
|
|
|
|
|
(following entries might be MI MIPS items)
|
|
|
|
o Move the RO and WIRED attribute from the pte to the pv table.
|
|
This saves four instructions in the tlb miss handler.
|
|
|
|
o Can we have 32 double registers?
|
|
|
|
o 64bit kernel/userland
|
|
|
|
o omit __SWAP_BROKEN in <mips/types.h>
|
|
|
|
o clean up ALEAF/NLEAF/NON_LEAF/NNON_LEAF in userland.
|
|
|
|
Lots of other things.....
