Subject: [PATCH 00/15] Add missing SPARC support
Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2016 14:43:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1467232724.git.eric.snowberg@oracle.com> (raw)
First set of patches to add sun4v SPARC support to grub.
Major additions include:
* Properly scan for both SAS and SCSI disks
* Increasing boot performance
* GPT support
* NVMe support
* Various bug fixes
Before this patch, there isn’t a single SAS HBA that was enumerated correctly
on SPARC. I went back 10 years and believe I have added every HBA with OF
support.
Without these patches, on larger systems, it took 15+ minutes to get
to the grub menu. Now it takes about a second.
This code has been tested on T1, T2, T4, T5, and T7 hardware.
Eric Snowberg (15):
sparc64: fix OF path names for sun4v systems
sparc64: Add blocklist GPT support for SPARC
grub-install: fix memory leak
sparc64: Use the correct disk name in core.img
ieee1275: fix segfault in grub-ofpathname
ieee1275: add nvme support within ofpath
ofdisk: memory corruption fix
ofdisk: move open logic
ieee1275: ofdisk - don't continue to query block-size after we have
it
ofdisk: refactor open logic
sparc64: boot performance improvements
ofdisk: only add aliases that exist
sparc64: add disks that don't have a devalias to the device list
parser: Remove escape from the state transitions
sparc64: ignore hypervisor reboot memory block device
