Excellent. I'm building code now, and will let you know when I test
it how far I get. I'll try first on a Ultra2 with dual-USI's. I have
a pair of 300Mhz USIIs for it too.
I had a question, though. First, what is a Spitfire? What does
this cover? Also, I notice the code in sparc64_send_ipi() to work
around SpitFire erratum #54. Should that code be protected either
by the pre-processor macro, or better a run-time test to see if
it's running on a SpitFire?
Thanks!
