TODO revision 1.44
      1 /* $NetBSD: TODO,v 1.44 2021/07/05 16:59:54 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  (primary ldom is Solaris 11.4 SRU30)::
     16        - kernel boots from miniroot.fs via ldom fisk (vdsk)
     17 	   - ldom virtual network interface (vnet) is working
     18 	     (verified by exiting sysinst and issuing a ping command)
     19 	   - the sysinst tool starts, disk setup is working,
     20 	     but the process crashes when selecting network installation method.
     21 		 The %i,%l and %o registers are corrupted, after a call to the libcurses
     22 		 wrefresh() function.
     23 		 If the sysinst insallation source is local directory, the sets are properly
     24 		 unpacked, but the system hangs afterwards when running the makedev script.
     25 	 T2000 ldom with 8 VCPU and 4GB:
     26 	   - crashes in /sbin/init doing an access() call where %o0 is corrupted (zero)
     27 	 S7 ldom with 8 VCPU and 16GB (primary ldom is Solaris 11.4 SRU33):
     28 	   - same status as T5 ldom
     29 - 64-bit kernel support
     30 - 32-bit kernel support
     31 - libkvm
     32 - ofwboot: tlb_init_sun4v() hardcodes number of slots to 64
     33 - locore.s: sun4v_datatrap missing implementation for trap level 1
     34 - check build without SUN4V defined
     35 - replace relevant references to %ver with GET_MAXCWP
     36 - pmap_mp_init(): sun4v missing handling
     37 - replace constructs like "wrpr %g0, PSTATE_KERN, %pstate" with NORMAL_GLOBALS
     38 - replace constructs line "wrpr %g0, PSTATE_INTR, %pstate" with ALTERNATE_GOBALS
     39 - sun4v tsb no need to lock... per cpu... anyway...
     40 - ci_tsb_desc->td_ctxidx: -1 or 1?
     41 - MP support - currently bypassed in pmap_bootstrap() for sun4v
     42 - vpci.c/vpcivar.h: cleanup FIXMEs
     43 - interrupts not handled properly (com at ebus only...)
     44 - mpt(4) complains: mpt0: Phy 0: Link Status Unknown
     45 - man pages for drivers imported from OpenBSD lke vpci, vbus, cbus, vdsk, ldc etc.
     46 - vdsk and ldc drivers: code maked with OPENBSD_BUSDMA - make the bus_dma stuff work properly
     47 - vbus.c: handle prom_getprop() memory leaks
     48 - locore.s: rft_user (sun4v specific manaul fill) - seems to work, but is it good enough (compared to openbsds rft_user?
     49 - openfirmware interface
     50     bounce handlng could need rework
     51       - only #if __arch64__ independent for SUN4V, as OF for all ultrasparcs is
     52         plain 32bit code too (and this #if only because the point below becomes
     53         always false otherwise)
     54       - only bounce if the address is >= 1UL<<32
     55       - perhaps apply the lock to OF calls in general, not only the bounce'd ones
     56         (in other words: let's protect the OF context with the lock, not
     57         only the bounce buffer contents).
     58 	  - Are there any other bounce-worthy OF calls? If so, apply handling
     59 	    to all of them now
     60       - consider method used by Solaris/OpenSolaris/Illumos (look for PROM_32BIT_ADDRS in
     61 	    the Illumos codebase)
     62  - platforms tested so far:
     63  -- qemu sun4v/niagara - reaches the point where the kernel needs to mount a root fs
     64  -- T2000 - mmu fault somewhere
     65  -- T5 - stickcmpr is not properly initialized ???
     66
