https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D233863 --- Comment #45 from Mark Millard <marklmi26-fbsd@yahoo.com> --- (In reply to Justin Hibbits from comment #40) All 5 of my attachments are tied to enabling booting various old PowerMac models in at least some mode (mostly usefdt mode). 3 of the 5 attachments are associated with not being able to boot and operate various old PowerMacs in usefdt mode. I originally started because I could not follow the "must set usefdt" part of the one line description on the old PowerMac7,2 G5 (2-sockets/1-core-each) and some G4s and a G3. You may well not want those problems covered by your new "in process" status for the defect. If not, then we need to do something about keeping the usefdt-mode-booting information someplace. (I'm hoping that usefdt becomes official and the default on the old PowerMacs.) The aim/trap_subr32.S isync's patch you have already been dealing with. It was tied to a lack of ability to boot G3s: It avoided getting machine-checks, there by allowing seeing the more informative type of failure information. I'm not sure if it is MFC'd everywhere yet. Again, if not considered as part of the original submittal's problems, we may need to do something to be sure it is not lost (unless it is MFC'd everywhere already?). That is 4 of the 5 attachments, the 5th is my original version of initializing sufficiently, early enough, on ap's. That may be the only one you want the "in progress" status to cover (using your variant). --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
