[PATCH] libopenbios/bootinfo_load.c: Implement Mac OS 9.2 boot script support
by Programmingkid Dec. 25, 2017

Dec. 25, 2017

This patch makes booting Mac OS 9.2 possible. It replaces all occurrences of >r and r> with sub_>r and sub_r>. This allows for the return stack to be left alone. This patch also makes it so that the boot script is executed one line at a time. Signed-off-by: John Arbuckle <programmingkidx(a)gmail.com> Note: this patch depends on the strstr() and return stack substitution patches.

[PATCH 0/5] Enable bus master support for rtl8139 network cards on Apple PPC machines
by Mark Cave-Ayland Aug. 7, 2016

Aug. 7, 2016

This patchset is loosely based on earlier work by BALATON Zoltan <balaton(a)eik.bme.hu> and provides basic infrastructure to allow OpenBIOS to enable PCI device bus mastering. Following on from discussions on the QEMU mailing list, it seems that Apple's OF enables bus mastering for some PCI devices by default, and as a result some buggy drivers forget to explicitly enable it and hence these devices fail under QEMU's emulation. The first 3 patches add the basic support routines while the last 2 patches enable bus mastering for the rtl8139 card on Apple PPC machines which is required for OS X and MorphOS.

Increasing dictionary space size
by Programmingkid April 26, 2016

April 26, 2016

How do we increase the size of the dictionary? I thought it would be as simple as increasing the DICTIONARY_SIZE constant, but that causes this error: ppc-elf-ld: section .romentry [00000000fffffffc -> 00000000ffffffff] overlaps section .data [00000000fff3c000 -> 000000010013c1d7] ppc-elf-ld: openbios-qemu.elf.nostrip: section .romentry vma 0xfffffffc overlaps previous sections

Current finding on booting Mac OS 9.2
by Programmingkid April 22, 2016

April 22, 2016

As Segher had suggested, I executed the boot script one line at a time. This enabled me to see what line failed. The line that is failing is this: r> here - allot The message printed after this line is executed is: "Dictionary space overflow: dicthead=000c3fe4 dictlimit=00080000" So I decide to find out what value was being allot'ed. Using this code: r> here - dup ." Calling allot with " . cr allot The value that is being allocated is 0xa43ef or 672,751. Just for a comparison, I tried my code on Apple's Open Firmware. The value it allocates is 0xffffffd7. So I think the solution might be to increase available memory to OpenBIOS's dictionary. I'm thinking the kernel.c file is where things might need adjusting. This is the patch I used. It replaces r> and >r with substitute words that don't touch the return stack. This patch also executes one line at a time.

April 17, 2016

Author: mcayland Date: Sun Apr 17 16:41:50 2016 New Revision: 1395 URL: http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/openbios/changeset/1395 Log: escc.c: add empty ranges property to escc and escc-legacy nodes This fixes an intermittent panic in the AppleSCCSerial module for MacOS 10.2 and the g3beige machine during initialisation as the module tries to write to the on-chip registers at 0x130XX rather than calculating the correct address derived from the parent PCI node. As described in the IEEE-1275 specification: if a "ranges" property exists but has a zero-length property value, the child address space is identical to the parent address space.

Even more findings to report about booting Mac OS 9
by Programmingkid April 17, 2016

April 17, 2016

I made a program that tells what control characters are in the Mac OS ROM file. It reported that every single control character is in that file. Then I had it only look at the bootscript part. The carriage return and line feed characters are the only control characters found there. http://www.ascii-code.com/ This page will tell you what the control characters are in case you don't know. I added some code to the bootinfo_init_program() function in bootinfo_load.c file that changes all control characters to '\n'. This made Mac OS 9 boot. But when I changed the control characters to a single space, Mac OS 9 failed to boot. This seems strange to me. The space character is the ultimate whitespace character, so why would it fail when '\n' succeeds? My only guess right now is a bug with one of the words in Forth. Here is the code I used. It is found around line 190 in the file: while (current < size) { c = base[current++]; // remove all control characters if (c >= 0 && c <= 31) { c = '\n'; } if (c == '<') { script = 0; tag = 1; taglen = 0;
