Here is the initial patches for AMD Barcelona support! These patches provide support for the Barcelona revision Bx. There is still a lot of work to do as you will see in the FIXME comments. Please focus most attention on the few places where changes were made to preexisting files. I understand that these patches are large and will take some time to get through. My hope is that they are accepted soon so that we can continue to develop and amend the code as we find issues and support more features.
A buildrom update will follow.

Some people have indicated that the entire patch didn't come through for them. Here is the large part1 gzip'd.
part 3 is trimmed too.
1. it seems that you keep native ram init code raminit_ddr2.c and raminit_ddr2_dqs.c 2. northbridge.c and etc still include bigSMP support 3. you didn't include native support for coherent_ht.c and incoherent_ht.c, that is including bigSMP support etc. Can you talk to AMD legal to release that code too? 4. is the public version or NDA version of SimNOW include the bigSMP BSD? I got one 256G machine, hope to play it with 32node quad core.
