By reading i386/i386/cons.c, it appears to be not. If it is not, then I would want to put away with the layer provided by i386/i386/cons.c while porting to sparc beacause the OpenBoot PROM already provides a console abstraction. Meanwhile, I have a functional locore.S and a PROM library with I/O routines and device tree browsing routines. I want to work on adding more debug infrastructure now with symbol table lookups and a panic routine which brings you to the PROM where you can do a `ctrace'. Also, integrating things with the BSD `configure'. -- Kapil Chowksey Viva GNU ! kchowksey@hss.hns.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-sparc Mon Jul 13 04:11:26 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA16684 for freebsd-sparc-outgoing; Mon, 13 Jul 1998 04:11:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-sparc@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from tapti.hss.hns.com (tapti.hss.hns.com [139.85.242.19]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id EAA16665 for ; Mon, 13 Jul 1998 04:11:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from kchowksey@hss.hns.com) Received: from tarang.hss.hns.com (tarang.hss.hns.com [139.85.242.33]) by tapti.hss.hns.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA26746 for ; Mon, 13 Jul 1998 16:59:03 +0530 (IST) Received: (from kchowksey@localhost) by tarang.hss.hns.com (8.8.2/8.7.3) id QAA13107; Mon, 13 Jul 1998 16:46:28 +0530 (IST) Date: Mon, 13 Jul 1998 16:46:28 +0530 (IST) Message-Id: <199807131116.QAA13107@tarang.hss.hns.com> From: Kapil Chowksey MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: freebsd-sparc@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: sparc64 toolchain X-Mailer: VM 6.34 under Emacs 19.34.1 Sender: owner-freebsd-sparc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org If anybody is interested in what toolchain to use for the sun4u port. ftp://vger.rutgers.edu/pub/linux/Sparc/ultrapenguin-1.0/SRPMS contains these files : sparc64-linux-binutils-2.8.1-1.src.rpm sparc64-linux-gcc-2.7.2.2-2.src.rpm Extract and hand patch the two rpms.
