TODO revision 1.36
      1 /* $NetBSD: TODO,v 1.36 2021/02/27 18:29:38 palle Exp $ */
      2 
      3 Things to be done:
      4 
      5 common:
      6 - make %g6 point to curcpu
      7 - make %g7 point to curlwp
      8 - change run-time checks for cpu type to function pointers
      9 
     10 sun4u:
     11 - GENERIC.UP kernel hangs on v445 (missing interrupt?)
     12 
     13 sun4v:
     14  - current status
     15      T5 ldom with 2 VCPU and 4GB:
     16        The kernel boots and starts userland when booting miniroot.fs.
     17        The sysinst tool starts properly and is functional.
     18 	   Installation is not possible, since no driver currently exists
     19 	   for the ldom network interfaces, but openbsd vnet and vsw drivers are
     20 	   possible to integrate and this work is progressing.
     21 	   OpenBoot (properly trashed registers).
     22 	 T2000 ldom with 8 VCPU and 4GB:
     23 	   On this platform it crashes in /sbin/init doing an access() call where %o0 is corrupted (zero)
     24 - 64-bit kernel support
     25 - 32-bit kernel support
     26 - libkvm
     27 - ofwboot: tlb_init_sun4v() hardcodes number of slots to 64
     28 - locore.s: sun4v_datatrap missing implementation for trap level 1
     29 - check build without SUN4V defined
     30 - replace relevant references to %ver with GET_MAXCWP
     31 - pmap_mp_init(): sun4v missing handling
     32 - replace constructs like "wrpr %g0, PSTATE_KERN, %pstate" with NORMAL_GLOBALS
     33 - replace constructs line "wrpr %g0, PSTATE_INTR, %pstate" with ALTERNATE_GOBALS
     34 - sun4v tsb no need to lock... per cpu... anyway...
     35 - ci_tsb_desc->td_ctxidx: -1 or 1?
     36 - MP support - currently bypassed in pmap_bootstrap() for sun4v
     37 - vpci.c/vpcivar.h: cleanup FIXMEs
     38 - interrupts not handled properly (com at ebus only...)
     39 - mpt(4) complains: mpt0: Phy 0: Link Status Unknown
     40 - man pages for drivers imported from OpenBSD lke vpci, vbus, cbus, vdsk, ldc etc.
     41 - vdsk and ldc drivers: code maked with OPENBSD_BUSDMA - make the bus_dma stuff work properly
     42 - vbus.c: handle prom_getprop() memory leaks
     43 - locore.s: rft_user (sun4v specific manaul fill) - seems to work, but is it good enough (compared to openbsds rft_user?
     44 - openfirmware interface
     45     bounce handlng could need rework
     46       - only #if __arch64__ independent for SUN4V, as OF for all ultrasparcs is
     47         plain 32bit code too (and this #if only because the point below becomes
     48         always false otherwise)
     49       - only bounce if the address is >= 1UL<<32
     50       - perhaps apply the lock to OF calls in general, not only the bounce'd ones
     51         (in other words: let's protect the OF context with the lock, not
     52         only the bounce buffer contents).
     53 	  - Are there any other bounce-worthy OF calls? If so, apply handling
     54 	    to all of them now
     55       - consider method used by Solaris/OpenSolaris/Illumos (look for PROM_32BIT_ADDRS in
     56 	    the Illumos codebase)
     57  - platforms tested so far:
     58  -- qemu sun4v/niagara - reaches the point where the kernel needs to mount a root fs
     59  -- T2000 - mmu fault somewhere
     60  -- T5 - stickcmpr is not properly initialized ???
