Ah this is because of a bug in Solaris whereby it requests too many
parameters to be returned with respect to the CIF method that is being
called. The fix is for OpenBIOS to not allow the client to POP() more
items from the stack than were there before the CIF call, for which I
have a local patch whilst I wait for the QEMU guys to update their git
repository from our SVN.
Please try the attached and let me know if you manage to get any further.
ATB,

Can init-program cause code to run?
by Mark Cave-Ayland
Hi all,
I've recently seen a couple of test cases in SPARC64 Forth bootloaders
whereby during execution, the bootloaders call "init-program" on an
address and expect it to start executing immediately.
My understanding from reading the IEEE1275 specification is that
"init-program" merely sets up the execution state ready for it to be
invoked by "go" and doesn't start execution itself - or could it be that
because "go" is currently running then "init-program" detects this and
automatically re-invokes "go" on the new payload itself?
ATB,
Mark.

Qemu/OpenBIOS 64-bit
by Nick Couchman
So, I have Solaris 9 working inside a qemu-system-sparc (32-bit) environment with OpenBIOS, but no such luck getting 64-bit Solaris (8/9/10/11) to boot. I've attached boot output from Solaris verions 8, 9, 10, and 11. Getting a later version (10+) to work would be nice, since it seems that at least up to Solaris 9 doesn't support CPU power management, which means the qemu-system-sparc process runs at 100% CPU usage constantly.
If I need to hook up a debugger and do more digging, I can...just let me know.
Thanks,
Nick

Qemu, OpenBIOS, and HostID
by Nick Couchman
First, thanks to everyone who has worked to get OpenBIOS up to its current functional level over the past couple of years. I'm using Solaris 9 on OpenBIOS with pretty good success these days, which is awesome.
I do have a question about Qemu, OpenBIOS, and the Solaris hostid. It seems that, currently, when booting Solaris with Qemu, the host ID is set to "80000000." As far as I can tell, this isn't near correct - according to all of the documentation I've read, the host ID should be calculated based on the machine type, and some portion of the MAC address. This may be the wrong forum in which to ask this, but I'm wondering if someone could shed light on why it shows up that way, and if there's a way in OpenBIOS via the PROM/NVRAM data to set the host ID to something a little bit closer to normal?
Thanks!

The "idprom" property produced by OpenBIOS is modified with this patch,
but I do not have any Solaris image.

Probably a dumb question - Intel MB DG45ID
by Philip Rhoades
People,
I have been on this list for some time lurking - just because I think it
is interesting that a bit of firmware can allow hardware to be actually
useful! I haven't done more than read the occasional post that was of
interest but the thought occurred to me again about replacing the BIOS
that is on my current machine with something that is open so I went back
to the OpenBIOS home page but was a bit puzzled to see on the Download
page: "Do not try to put OpenBIOS in a real boot ROM, it will not work
and may damage your hardware!". After a little more looking around I am
still confused - the ultimate aim of this software is to eventually
allow people to replace their proprietary BIOSes right? I have an Intel
MB DG45ID but I couldn't Google much overlap with OpenBIOS . .
Thanks for any enlightenment!
Regards,
Phil.

Yes, if things do try and access the NVRAM directly then that would
definitely be a better solution (I had no idea that QEMU did this until
I read your previous email!). It's not particularly on my radar at the
moment as I'm back deep in SPARC64-land, but I'd be happy to support
anyone that did come up with something suitable.
ATB,
Mark.

[commit] r1246 - trunk/openbios-devel/drivers
by repository service

Log:
tcx/cgthree: remove hard OpenBIOS dependency from driver
Since QEMU 1.7, the OpenBIOS TCX framebuffer FCode ROM is made available to
Open Firmware upon boot. However, this causes a boot failure for people who
use a Sun OBP firmware with QEMU since the FCode throws an exception trying
to access some OpenBIOS-specific variables. This causes an invalid device
node to be created in the tree, causing a crash on boot as reported by Peter
Bartoli and Artyom Tarasenko.
Fix both drivers so that if OpenBIOS is not detected, we fall back to the QEMU
framebuffer defaults of 1024x768x8 which should generate a valid device node
and avoid the crash.

sun-parts.c: only interpose ufs-file-system if an argument (filename) is specified
The code to interpose ufs-file-system similar to OBP would always interpose the
package if it existed, causing Solaris ufsboot to fail when the package was
subsequently opened on a raw disk device without a filename. Fix the code so that
interposition only occurs when a filename is passed as an argument, which enables
us to complete the load and start executing the Solaris 9 kernel on SPARC64.
