mipsel' or 'machine mips mipseb' into the config file (with a few 64's
tossed in for good measure). This will let us build the proper
kernels with different worlds as part of make universe.
using miibus, since for some devices that use multiple addresses on the bus,
going through miibus may be unclear, and for devices that are not standard
MII PHYs, miibus may throw a fit, necessitating complicated interfaces to
fake the interface that it expects during probe/attach.
o) Make the mv88e61xx SMI interface in octe attach a PHY directly and fix some
mistakes in the code that resulted from trying too hard to present a nice
interface to miibus.
o) Add a PHY driver for the mv88e61xx. If attached (it is optional in kernel
compiles so the default behavior of having a dumb switch is preserved) it
will place the switch in a VLAN-tagging mode such that each physical port
has a VLAN associated with it and interfaces for the VLANs can be created to
address or bridge between them.
XXX It would be nice for this to be part of a single module including the
SMI interface, and for it to fit into a generic switch configuration
framework and for it to use DSA rather than VLANs, but this is a start
and gives some sense of the parameters of such frameworks that are not
currently present in FreeBSD. In lieu of a switch configuration
interface, per-port media status and VLAN settings are in a sysctl tree.
XXX There may be some minor nits remaining in the handling of broadcast,
multicast and unknown destination traffic. It would also be nice to go
through and replace the few remaining magic numbers with macros at some
point in the future.
XXX This has only been tested with the MV88E6161, but it should work with
minimal or no modification on related switches, so support for probing
them was included.
Thanks to Pat Saavedra of TELoIP and Rafal Jaworowski of Semihalf for their
assistance in understanding the switch chipset.
library:
o) Increase inline unit / large function growth limits for MIPS to accommodate
the needs of the Simple Executive, which uses a shocking amount of inlining.
o) Remove TARGET_OCTEON and use CPU_CNMIPS to do things required by cnMIPS and
the Octeon SoC.
o) Add OCTEON_VENDOR_LANNER to use Lanner's allocation of vendor-specific
board numbers, specifically to support the MR320.
o) Add OCTEON_BOARD_CAPK_0100ND to hard-wire configuration for the CAPK-0100nd,
which improperly uses an evaluation board's board number and breaks board
detection at runtime. This board is sold by Portwell as the CAM-0100.
o) Add support for the RTC available on some Octeon boards.
o) Add support for the Octeon PCI bus. Note that rman_[sg]et_virtual for IO
ports can not work unless building for n64.
o) Clean up the CompactFlash driver to use Simple Executive macros and
structures where possible (it would be advisable to use the Simple Executive
API to set the PIO mode, too, but that is not done presently.) Also use
structures from FreeBSD's ATA layer rather than structures copied from
Linux.
o) Print available Octeon SoC features on boot.
o) Add support for the Octeon timecounter.
o) Use the Simple Executive's routines rather than local copies for doing reads
and writes to 64-bit addresses and use its macros for various device
addresses rather than using local copies.
o) Rename octeon_board_real to octeon_is_simulation to reduce differences with
Cavium-provided code originally written for Linux. Also make it use the
same simplified test that the Simple Executive and Linux both use rather
than our complex one.
o) Add support for the Octeon CIU, which is the main interrupt unit, as a bus
to use normal interrupt allocation and setup routines.
o) Use the Simple Executive's bootmem facility to allocate physical memory for
the kernel, rather than assuming we know which addresses we can steal.
NB: This may reduce the amount of RAM the kernel reports you as having if
you are leaving large temporary allocations made by U-Boot allocated
when starting FreeBSD.
o) Add a port of the Cavium-provided Ethernet driver for Linux. This changes
Ethernet interface naming from rgmxN to octeN. The new driver has vast
improvements over the old one, both in performance and functionality, but
does still have some features which have not been ported entirely and there
may be unimplemented code that can be hit in everyday use. I will make
every effort to correct those as they are reported.
o) Support loading the kernel on non-contiguous cores.
o) Add very conservative support for harvesting randomness from the Octeon
random number device.
o) Turn SMP on by default.
o) Clean up the style of the Octeon kernel configurations a little and make
them compile with -march=octeon.
o) Add support for the Lanner MR320 and the CAPK-0100nd to the Simple
Executive.
o) Modify the Simple Executive to build on FreeBSD and to build without
executive-config.h or cvmx-config.h. In the future we may want to
revert part of these changes and supply executive-config.h and
cvmx-config.h and access to the options contained in those files via
kernel configuration files.
o) Modify the Simple Executive USB routines to support getting and setting
of the USB PID.

physical addresses.
o) Set a local maxmem in sb_machdep.c to avoid trying to use pages over 2^64
under 32-bit ABIs. Our pmap needs corrected to use vm_paddr_t consistently,
then we can make vm_paddr_t 64-bit under 32-bit ABIs and add code in pmap
to limit phys_avail by the maximum PFN that a 32-bit PTE can hold.
that turned out to be unrelated, and the rest was, as pointed out by Neel,
just wrong-headed.
o) Tweak mem.c to fix use of /dev/kmem for direct-mapped addresses.
this in the Sibyte PCI hostbridge driver instead.
The nexus driver sees resource allocation requests for memory and irq
resources only. These are legitimate resources on all MIPS platforms.

You need to follow the mips wiki for building
the nfs partition and setup things to mount there
(in the conf and in your bootp setup).
I think these are the relevant changes, but definitely are a superset
of them. Software archaeologists are invited to check the branch
itself for the details.

The default KERNLOADADDR does not work on MALTA hardware. On my platform the
"First free SDRAM address" reported by YAMON is 0x800b6e61.
So use a conservative KERNLOADADDR of 0x80100000.
