1.3 fn 59:
60: <p>
1.126 jufi 61: The original 4.4BSD port was done by Chris Torek as a contract to
1.50 jason 62: LBL. The code was released by Chris in mid-1993, and Theo de Raadt
1.1 deraadt 63: worked it into shape for the NetBSD tree. Theo and Markus Wild worked
64: on improving Chris' original SunOS compatibility code into a highly
65: complete and reliable emulation. Chuck Cranor ported the sun4c code to
1.119 miod 66: the 8KB pagesize sun4 architecture, and Theo merged this code in a
1.1 deraadt 67: way that would allow the same kernel and programs to run on either
1.64 jason 68: sun4c or sun4 machines (unlike Sun's separate kernel environments).
1.1 deraadt 69: This last change also required a rewrite of the device configuration
1.25 johns 70: code. Just after the NetBSD/sparc 1.0 release, Peter Galbavy wrote an
1.154 nick 71: ESP SCSI device driver as a replacement for Chris' sparc-specific SCSI
1.119 miod 72: code.
1.3 fn 73: </p>
1.1 deraadt 74:
75: <p>
76: At this point a conflict emerged between Theo and the other people he
77: started the NetBSD project with, and Theo was forced by the core group
78: to resign from NetBSD. After Theo left NetBSD, a few people in the
79: NetBSD group did some other things for the port: Paul Kranenburg
80: ported a floppy driver and started writing support for the 4/400.
81: Chuck spent many long hours working on the ie, xy, xd device drivers.
1.3 fn 82: </p>
1.1 deraadt 83:
84: <p>
85: Theo continued working independently, and made a number of additions:
1.119 miod 86: P4 support, flexible boot strategy, a few graphics drivers with the help
87: from John Stone, and masses of bug fixes.
1.3 fn 88: </p>
1.1 deraadt 89:
90: <p>
1.25 johns 91: Work on porting OpenBSD/sparc to the sun4m platform was started by Theo,
1.36 todd 92: but tendinitis problems with his wrists and the problems with the NetBSD
1.119 miod 93: core combined made him stop this work. The initial sun4m work was passed
1.7 deraadt 94: to Aaron Brown of Harvard, who was paid out of Margo Seltzer's research
1.119 miod 95: funds. This initial stuff consisted mostly of a few attempts at building
1.8 deraadt 96: pmap structure that could support all 3 MMU types efficiently. Also,
1.119 miod 97: David Miller of the UltraLinux project got a little bit involved.
1.7 deraadt 98: </p>
99:
100: <p>
1.27 downsj 101: Theo and Jason Downs merged the NetBSD sparc code back into OpenBSD, making
1.50 jason 102: OpenBSD/sparc usable again. Jason Wright wrote a few new SBus Ethernet
1.119 miod 103: drivers with information from the UltraLinux project and has merged a few bits
1.50 jason 104: from NetBSD sources to improve the stability of this architecture.
1.119 miod 105: Over the time, Art Grabowski fixed various stability or reliability issues,
106: and added non-executable stack and heap on sun4m machines.
107: The frame buffer and console code was completely overhauled for OpenBSD 3.2,
108: improving display speed with some frame buffers, and supporting more cards.
1.50 jason 109: </p>
110:
111: <p>
112: And work continues...

1.119 miod 122: multi-user, and supports enough (if not all) of the on-board devices to

131: worked on.
1.6 downsj 132: </p>
133:
134: <p>
1.25 johns 135: An important note about OpenBSD/sparc is that it is designed so that
1.30 downsj 136: a single kernel can run on <b>ALL SUPPORTED</b> sparc machines. Whereas
1.92 jufi 137: SunOS and Solaris have always had separate `kernel architectures', i.e. sun4,
1.26 downsj 138: sun4c, and sun4m, the same `GENERIC' OpenBSD kernel will run on all the
139: supported models.
1.15 grr 140: </p>
141:
142: <p>
1.50 jason 143: Most of the problems with OpenBSD/sparc are believed to stem from the wide
144: variety of sparc processor and cache implementations along with their
1.161 ! jsg 145: undocumented bugs, rather than general kernel problems.
1.15 grr 146: Feedback on which models do and do not work reliably is
1.77 deraadt 147: appreciated, particularly with newer models or upgrades.

630: OpenBSD/sparc can be installed or upgraded via CD, floppy boot images on
631: sun4c and sun4m, miniroot images for machines without floppies
632: (and sun4 machines), as well as network and diskless installs.
633: <ul>
634: <li><strong>CD boot</strong>
635: <p>
1.126 jufi 636: Booting off the CD provides a small ffs filesystem with a GENERIC kernel with
637: drivers for all supported devices found on Sparc machines.<br>
1.122 miod 638: For the latest list of drivers available on this image, take a look at the
639: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/sparc/conf/GENERIC?rev=HEAD">GENERIC</a>
640: kernel configuration file.
641: The CD can be booted off the OpenPROM prompt with
642: <pre>
1.158 miod 643: boot cdrom 3.6/sparc/bsd.rd
1.122 miod 644: </pre>

1.122 miod 647: <p>
648: Booting off the floppy provides a small ffs filesystem with a kernel
649: containing drivers for the most popular devices found on Sparc machines.<br>

1.159 miod 658: <li><strong>Miniroot</strong> (miniroot36.fs)
1.122 miod 659: <p>
660: The miniroot provides the same installation environment as the bootable CD,
661: and is intended for easy bootstrap if there is already an operating system
662: installed on the machine.
663: After dumping the miniroot to the primary swap partition with dd, the
664: miniroot can be booted off the OpenPROM prompt with a command such as
665: <pre>
666: boot disk:b
667: </pre>
668: (the disk designation may be different, depending on the chosen swap
669: partition).

1.122 miod 672: <li><strong>Netboot</strong> (boot.net, bsd.rd)
673: <p>
674: Using a diskless setup, it is also possible to boot the OpenBSD/sparc
675: boot loader, <tt>boot.net</tt>, from the network via tftp, and access
676: the <tt>bsd.rd</tt> standalone miniroot over NFS.
