As an addition to my post at qemu-ppc, I’d like to add support for a few more cpus to Openbios, so when I get KVM to support -cpu host: openbios will be able to boot from the cpu’s I have.
Right now I have a Powerbook6,8 with a 7447a ( PRV 80030105 ) I think this CPU is V1.5.
I also have a iBook with a 750fx ( PVR 70000112 ).
Soon I will have a Quicksilver with Dual 1Ghz G4’s, and an iBook G4 with a 7447a, not sure of the PVR’s yet.
So, I see that I need to edit the init.c, and I noticed we might need some real values from some of the chips.
{ // XXX find out real values .iu_version = 0x800c0000, .name = "PowerPC,74xx", .icache_size = 0x8000, .dcache_size = 0x8000, .icache_sets = 0x80, .dcache_sets = 0x80, .icache_block_size = 0x20, .dcache_block_size = 0x20, .tlb_sets = 0x40, .tlb_size = 0x80, .initfn = cpu_750_init,
Mark, how can I get the values needed from my CPU’s?
I’m assuming we need the values for the .icach_size etc.

I found a list of PVR values here: https://www.thinkclassic.org/viewtopic.php?id=46&p=2

That looks like the output of "qemu-system-ppc64 -cpu help" ;-)

On a real Mac you can see them in the CPU node in the Open Firmware device tree. This is how it looks in OpenBIOS (should be fairly easy to do the equivalent on a real Mac):

ATB,

Thanks Mark, what is the way to submit a patch?
Just post it here for review or other?
