 1.24  29-May-2020  tsutsui Shrink ramdisk to make RAMDISK kernel smaller for ARC BIOS restriction.
 1.23  03-Aug-2011  tsutsui branches: 1.23.46;
less is no more
 1.22  01-Aug-2011  tsutsui Use distrib/utils/more to shrink ramdiskbin.
 1.21  03-Jul-2011  tron Update location of "less" source directory to the build of various
install medias.
 1.20  14-Jan-2011  tsutsui Adjust file lists for recent move:
usr/sbin/chown -> sbin/chown
usr/bin/chgrp -> bin/chgrp
 1.19  11-Feb-2010  roy Remove terminfo.db as it's now embedded in libterminfo.
 1.18  05-Feb-2010  roy Use the rescue terminfo.db in our images instead of termcap.
 1.17  20-Sep-2009  abs 34 different termcap subsets, plus a couple of ports still using
the full termcap distfile. In an attempt to reduce the madness
switch everyone (except the i386 cd install which does its own
thing) to the same (under 8K) termcap subset:

ansi ansi/pc-term compatible with color
dumb|unknown 80-column dumb tty
hp300h HP Catseye console
iris-ansi-ap IRIS ANSI in application-keypad mode
iris-ansi|iris-ansi-net IRIS emulating 40 line ANSI terminal (almost VT100)
sun|sun1|sun2|sun-il Sun Microsystems Inc. console with working insert-line
vt100|vt100-am DEC VT100 (w/advanced video)
vt220-8 DEC VT220 8 bit terminal
vt220|vt200|vt300 DEC VT220 in vt100 emulation mode
wsvt25 NetBSD wscons in 25 line DEC VT220 mode
wsvt25m NetBSD wscons in 25 line DEC VT220 mode with Meta
x68k|x68k-ite NetBSD/x68k ITE
xterm|vs100 xterm terminal emulator (X Window System)

Trying to provide similar functionality across all ports? It'll never
catch on...
 1.16  20-Sep-2009  abs ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/distrib/common/protocols => ${DISTRIBDIR}/common/protocols
${NETBSDSRCDIR}/distrib/common/services => ${DISTRIBDIR}/common/services
 1.15  29-Apr-2009  tsutsui Fix indent on common/protocols changes.
 1.14  25-Jan-2009  abs branches: 1.14.2;
Use the cutdown distrib/common/services and distrib/common/protocols
rather than the full fat etc versions
 1.13  06-May-2008  dyoung Add -lprop to the LIBS line so that ifconfig will link.
 1.12  02-Feb-2008  tsutsui branches: 1.12.2; 1.12.6; 1.12.8;
Use less(1) rather than x_more.
 1.11  01-Feb-2008  tsutsui Use common/termcap.mini.
 1.10  10-May-2007  dogcow branches: 1.10.4;
Since /etc/services has gotten rather large, use a minimal one for install
kernels. (mount_nfs is notably the only binary that doesn't gracefully deal
with the lack of an /etc/services file, it appears.)
 1.9  10-Sep-2005  dsl Delete the:
SPECIAL dmesg srcdir distrib/utils/x_dmesg
line from all the ramdisk 'list' files. dmesg/Makefile will add -DSMALL
if SMALLPROG is defined (which it is by Makefile.crunch).
 1.8  18-Apr-2005  tsutsui Put a brandnew boot program to install ramdisk.
 1.7  16-Apr-2005  tsutsui Add newfs_msdos(8) for install ramdiskbin.

ARCBIOS can load binaries only from msdosfs on disks (or iso9660 on cdroms).
 1.6  19-Jan-2003  tsutsui branches: 1.6.6;
Remove "srcdir distrib/utils/x_mount" from ramdisk lists
since src/sbin/mount/Makefile no longer links fs specific routines.
 1.5  17-Oct-2002  lukem Now that usr.bin/ftp/Makefile supports SMALLPROG and SMALLPROG_INET6,
we don't need distrib/utils/x_ftp anymore...
 1.4  29-May-2002  lukem remove unnecessary MTREE line
 1.3  26-Apr-2002  lukem branches: 1.3.2;
replace _SRC_TOP_ with NETBSDSRCDIR, since the latter is the "public" version
 1.2  13-Apr-2002  lukem consistency cleanup
 1.1  06-Apr-2002  tsutsui First cut at ramdisk build infrastructure for arc with NDWO.
 1.3.2.1  29-May-2002  lukem Pull up revision 1.4 (requested by lukem):
remove unnecessary MTREE line
 1.6.6.1  01-May-2005  tron Pull up revision 1.7 (requested by tsutsui in ticket #229):
Add newfs_msdos(8) for install ramdiskbin.
ARCBIOS can load binaries only from msdosfs on disks (or iso9660 on cdroms).

 1.23.46.1  07-Jun-2020  martin Pull up following revision(s) (requested by tsutsui in ticket #939):

distrib/arc/ramdisk/Makefile: revision 1.29
sys/arch/arc/arc/arcbios.c: revision 1.18
distrib/arc/ramdisk/list: revision 1.24
sys/arch/arc/conf/GENERIC: revision 1.198
sys/arch/arc/conf/RAMDISK: revision 1.83
distrib/arc/ramdisk/Makefile: revision 1.28

bump ramdisk size to 3200k for gcc 8. yay!

-

Make sure to preserve MIPS_CURLWP (t8) register from ARC BIOS calls.

Fixes silent hangup right after starting a kernel on my
Express5800/230 R4400 PCI (finally I've repaired its PSU and RTC).
Reviewed by soda@. Maybe other ARC machines are also affected.

Note GXemul was not affected by this problem because it doesn't
have actual ARC BIOS ROM and emulates ARC functions internally.

Should be pulled up to at least netbsd-9.

-

Shrink ramdisk to make RAMDISK kernel smaller for ARC BIOS restriction.

Try to shrink kernels to smaller than ~6MB due to ARC BIOS restriction.

Currently NetBSD/arc kernels are loaded at 0x80200000
(on some machines ARC BIOS uses regions before it) and
ARC BIOS also uses around 0x807f0000, so bootloader fails
on loading >6MB kernels.

Note GXemul doesn't have this restriction because it loads
a kernel directly via a command line argument.

Tested by installing using sysinst on RAMDISK kernel on netbsd-9.
Should be pulled up to netbsd-9.
