da1547d6be1bc48dad166f46976c33019c69217f - A stack size of 8K is too small for a block buffer of 65536 bytes.

Sat, 20 Sep 2014 23:10:46 +0000

A stack size of 8K is too small for a block buffer of 65536 bytes.Increased the stack size to 128K. This makes ofwboot work with FirmWorksOpenFirmware systems again (tested with Motorola PowerStack II). List of files: /netbsd-src/sys/arch/ofppc/stand/ofwboot/version

Fri, 11 Sep 2009 12:00:12 +0000

Added support for RDB partitions.Moved MBR parition code out of ofdev.c into mbr.c.Tested on Pegasos2 (RDB and MBR) and RS6000. List of files: /netbsd-src/sys/arch/ofppc/stand/ofwboot/version

dc6a7fd211b7bd650db618f3f3b3133bf62dfb02 - Add support to ofwboot for booting on the 7046-B50. Also likely to work

Wed, 13 Feb 2008 20:11:38 +0000

Add support to ofwboot for booting on the 7046-B50. Also likely to workon the 7043-150. The B50 wants not only a note at the head of thebinary, like the 7044 did, but it also wants a PHDR that points at it.Because the IBM firmware doesn't like the real note section that ldgenerates (it puts it at the end of the file), we instead point PT_NOTEat the text section. This works, because at the top of the text section,there is a note hacked in, which was required for the 7044.Also, change the mode from virtual mode to real mode in the note, becausethe B50 hangs if you load it in virtual. Tested to work on a B50, 7044,and Pegasos2.Yay IBM. List of files: /netbsd-src/sys/arch/ofppc/stand/ofwboot/version

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 19:52:53 +0000

Add padding to align the rodata section. This fixes a strange bugwhere the bootloader would freak out if various printfs were enabled ordisabled.Add code to autodetect a 64bit cpu, and attempt to load a different setof kernels if they exist.Bump version to 1.9 List of files: /netbsd-src/sys/arch/ofppc/stand/ofwboot/version

Wed, 09 Jan 2008 19:34:44 +0000

Changes to the ofppc ofwboot to make it boot on an IBM CHRP RS/6000.Tested on a pegasos II and a 7044-270. Also, switch away from the hackedup alloc.c we were using, and use the stock libsa one. List of files: /netbsd-src/sys/arch/ofppc/stand/ofwboot/version

Tue, 23 Oct 2001 03:31:25 +0000

Clean up the NetBSD/ofppc boot loader:- Garbage collect some cruft that doesn't apply to the ofppc port.- Make our OFW-friendly alloc.c more like the libsa alloc.c- Generally reduce some differences where we can between this boot loader and the NetBSD/macppc boot loader.- Use libsa's loadfile().- Fix DDB symbol loading -- Add a magic number after the args string so the kernel knows the symbols are there, provide both ssym and esym, and make sure all these values are aligned to a 4-byte boundary.- Add support for MS-DOS file systems.

1bd80ab6753cd0785169c788df569eb5f374b279 - New OpenFirmware boot code for NetBSD/powerpc, based on Wolfgang's original

Wed, 16 Apr 1997 20:28:59 +0000

New OpenFirmware boot code for NetBSD/powerpc, based on Wolfgang's originalNetBSD/powerpc boot program. Highligts:- Rearrange a bit so that we can sanely add boot programs for non-OpenFirmware systems.- Add support for loading compressed kernels (for booting from 1.44M floppies).- Add support for loading Elf kernels (Elf is the new standard format for NetBSD/powerpc). (XXX Don't load symbols right now - the code to do it is there, but I don't particularly like how space for the symbol table is allocated; I will revisit this soon'ish).
