2.2.1 MIPS kernel sources plus Indy kernel binaries uploaded

[Thomas Bogendoerfer]

After syncing my two source trees with CVS, I've exported a tarball
and uploaded it to

ftp://ftp.linux.sgi.com/pub/linux/mips/test/linux-2.2.1-990226.tar.gz

I've tested compilation for Indy and Olivetti M700 (MIPS Magnum).

I also uploaded a Indy kernel (map and .config file included):

ftp://ftp.linux.sgi.com/pub/linux/mips/test/vmlinux-indy-2.2.1-990226.tar.gz

I've tried compiling this on a base hardhat installation and here's the 
resuults so far.. (no, haven't gotten a kernel out of it yet)

First, there's no modutils.  I grabbed modutils2.1.121 and that compiled and 
installed fine.
Next, it almost immediately blew up on a lack of a current structure.
I found that /usr/include/asm/current.h had a conditional defining of the 
struct if C_language was defines, and something else if ASMing.  I just took 
out the conditional(don't know if it's the right thing, but compiling went 
alot further)
Lastly(and most messily) it got to arch mips and tried some ASMing.
Here's a short piece of that:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -G 0 -mno-abicalls -fno-pic -mcpu=r4600 -mips2 -pipe -c indyIRQ.S -o indyIRQ.o

How has everyone else faired in the compiling game?  :)

it worked out of the box, but not on an out of the box HardHat:-(

HardHat has still gcc-2.7.2 as the default C compiler and this
compiler has different defines. So either use egcs or update your
gcc specs file (sorry, I couldn't find the patch right now, anyone ?)

Works here out of the box using hardhat egcs.

Still have the aforementioned video quirks.  Any further developments regarding
Newport revisions?

so far nobody could tell me, how I can read the newport revision. Without
this information it's impossible to implement a runtime workaround for
the cursor problem (and mabye others).

So once again:

Is there anybody on this list, who knows and is willing to tell me, how I
get the newport revision ?

Ooops, sorry about the delay but here's the specs man and here's his specs file!

The specs man says: Take this specs file and put it in
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/mips-linux/2.7.2.2 or similar..

Thomas,

Anyone else have trouble with these on an R4400? I tried a couple times. Both
stopped the boot process a the "freeing unused memory" part. Sorry there was no
other info.

Regards,
Chad

It seems one of the ``high priests'' will need get access to one of these
machine in order to debug the problem.

Did you try the usual hot keys to get a register dump?  If that still works,
what is the epc value, is the machine looping?
