The Supervisor Binary Interface (SBI) specification v0.2 is a backwards
incompatible update to the SBI call interface for kernels running in
supervisor mode. The goal of this update was to make it easier for new
and optional functionality to be added to the SBI.
SBI functions are now called by passing an "extension ID" and a
"function ID" which are passed in a7 and a6 respectively. SBI calls
will also return an error and value in the following struct:
struct sbi_ret {
long error;
long value;
}
This version introduces several new functions under the "base"
extension. It is expected that all SBI implementations >= 0.2 will
support this base set of functions, as they implement some essential
services such as obtaining the SBI version, CPU implementation info, and
extension probing.
Existing SBI functions have been designated as "legacy". For the time
being they will remain implemented, but it is expected that in the
future their functionality will be duplicated or replaced by new SBI
extensions. Each legacy function has been assigned its own extension ID,
and for now we simply probe and assert for their existence.
Compatibility with legacy SBI implementations (such as BBL) is
maintained by checking the output of sbi_get_spec_version(). This
function is guaranteed to succeed by the new spec, but will return an
error in legacy implementations. We use this as an indicator of whether
or not we can rely on the new SBI base extensions.

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
