I'm having no trouble with kernel and world on two CN5020 boards and no trouble with starting the kernel on a CN5860-based board. The CN5860 board has problems I'm dealing with. That said, the two CN5020 boards are running with this patch to U-Boot, which I really did find was necessary because the address the (unused) data was stored at conflicts with the per-CPU storage area, IIRC. http://people.freebsd.org/~jmallett/no-labi.diff I have a more conservative ldscript that I can check in and move the Octeon kernel configurations to, which gets rid of the non-executable program headers that generate messages. All that really matters is that we not have multiple executable program headers because that completely breaks the Octeon ELF loading code. Juli.
