building openbios sparc64 for qemu
by berrie.schuurhuis＠gmail.com
As a newbee in this space I got qemu-system-sparc[64] running on a linux machine.
Trying to find out how qemu and openbios work together I'm currently looking into building openbios-sparc64.
This goes with mixed success as https://www.openfirmware.info/OpenBIOS has nice description on how to build openbios, but there's a missing link as to how to harvest the openbios-sparc64 from this.
My build of openbios is done on an Ultra60(Sparc) machine that runs:
Linux ultra60 4.19.0-2-sparc64 #1 Debian 4.19.16-1 (2019-01-17) sparc64 GNU/Linux
with gcc --version
gcc (Debian 8.3.0-2) 8.3.0
It seems like the file openbios/obj-sparc64/openbios-builtin.elf may be the candidate to become openbios-sparc64??
When giving this a try, and moving openbios-builtin.elf to my x86 qemu machine, it crashes spectacularly with:
qemu: fatal: Trap 0x0064 while trap level (5) >= MAXTL (5), Error state

On x86: Booting qemu with the provided openbios-sparc64 rom works flawless.
On the Ultra60: Running ./openbios-unix openbios-sparc64.dict seems to behave as expected:
Output device screen not found.
Input device keyboard not found.
Output device screen not found.
Type 'help' for detailed information
[unix] Booting default not supported.
Trying disk...
No valid state has been set by load or init-program

To get openbios build, I had to make a small change in Makefile.target:
#CFLAGS+= -Werror
CFLAGS+= -Wno-error
To "fix":
Building OpenBIOS for sparc64

Build sparc32 openbios
by BALARD Arnaud
Hi, Openbios !
I try to build a bios sparc32 for qemu.
I use the script "./config/scripts/switch-arch sparc32"
Initializing build tree ok
Creating taget config.mak ok
Creating taget rules.mak ok
Creating config files ok
When I do the "make build-verbose" I get the following error :
"PATH/openbios/arch/sparc32/context.c: In function 'switch_to':
"PATH/openbios/arch/sparc32/context.c:116:5: error: PIC register clobbered by 'l7' in 'asm'
Asm_volatile_("\n\tcall_switch_context"
^~~
Rules.mak:219 « target/arch/sparc32/context.o » failed
Make[1]: *** [target/arch/sparc32/context.o error 1
Makefile:32 target "subdir-sparc32" failed
Make: *** [subdir-sparc32] error 2
I was try to build ppc and sparc64, that's ok, I can boot on my ppc's bios (not on sparc64, I think I need to do another thing).
Do you know what I'm doing wrong for sparc 32 ?
Thanks,
