- GENERIC.UP kernel hangs on v445 (missing interrupt?)
sun4v:
- - current status (verified on T5 ldom with 2 VCPU and 4GB):
- The kernel boots and starts userland.
- During the execution of the sysinst process, a sub-process crashes.
- The crash happens when a call to sysctl from /bin/sh causes a mmu trap.
- Part of the TRAP_SETUP() call in sun4v_datatrap issues a 'save' instruction.
- Since %cansave is 0 (%canrestore is 6 and %otherwin is 0) a SPILL trap is generated.
- The current code ends up in the pcbspill codepath (which is based on code from openbsd).
- This code assumes that it is the register window in the OTHERWIN window that must be spilled
- to the pcb.
- Since %otherwin in this scenario actually is zero, we end up putting incorrect register
- window values to the pcb.
- So - this code should not save data to the pcb when %otherwin is 0 - it should spill the
- values to the stack of the user process. Special care should be taken here, since we
- may end up with a mmu fault again if the stack address is not present in the mmu, so
- perhaps spilling to the physical address of the stack will work.
- Time will show if this is correct...
- Status on T2000 ldom with 8 VCPU and 4GB is that is crashes in /sbin/init doing an access() call where %o0 is corrupted (zero)
+ - current status
+ T5 ldom with 2 VCPU and 4GB:
+ The kernel boots and starts userland when booting miniroot.fs.
+ The sysinst tool starts properly and requests terminal type.
+ Upon entering characters on the console, a crash occurs inside
+ OpenBoot (properly trashed registers).
