and instead add platform, firmware and EFI stubs to the loader. The net effect of this change is that besides a special console and disk driver, the kernel has no knowledge of the simulator. This has the following advantages: o Simulator support is much harder to break, o It's easier to make use of more feature complete simulators. This would only need a change in the simulator specific loader, o Running SMP kernels within the simulator. Note that ski at this time does not simulate IPIs, so there's no way to start APs. The platform, firmware and EFI stubs describe the following hardware: o 4 CPU Itanium, o 128 MB RAM within the 4GB address space, o 64 MB RAM above the 4GB address space. NOTE: The stubs in the skiloader describe a machine that should in parts be defined by the simulator. Things like processor interrupt block and AP wakeup vector cannot be choosen at random because they require interpretation by the simulator. Currently the simulator is ignorant of this. This change introduces an unofficial SSC call SSC_SAL_SET_VECTORS which is ignored by the simulator. Tested with: ski (version 0.943 for linux)
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
