# 240655 18-Sep-2012 mav

Fix panics on attempt to dereference uninitizlized pointer, returned via
'path' argument of ofw_parsedev() if devspec refers raw device with no path.

For example, `ls /pci@1f,0/ide@d/disk@0,0:a/` works fine, while
`ls /pci@1f,0/ide@d/disk@0,0:a` panicked before this change.

sparc64/zfs boot: take advantage of new libzfsboot capabilities

Also drop the now unneeded compatibility shims.

Tested by: marius
MFC after: 1 month


# 234898 01-May-2012 marius

Add initial support for booting from ZFS on sparc64. At least on Sun Fire
V100, the firmware is known to be broken and not allowing to simultaneously
open disk devices, causing attempts to boot from a mirror or RAIDZ to cause
a crash. This will be worked around later. The firmwares of newer sun4u models
don't seem to exhibit this problem though.

Steps for ZFS booting:

1. create VTOC8 label
# gpart create -s vtoc8 da0

2. add partitions, f.e.:
# gpart add -t freebsd-zfs -s 60g da0
# gpart add -t freebsd-swap da0
resulting in something like:
# gpart show
=> 0 143331930 da0 VTOC8 (68G)
0 125821080 1 freebsd-zfs (60G)
125821080 17510850 2 freebsd-swap (8.4G)

3. create zpool
# zpool create bunker da0a
or for mirror/RAIDZ (after preparing additional disks as in steps 1. + 2.):
# zpool create bunker mirror da0a da1a
# zpool create bunker raidz da0a da1a da2a ...

4. set bootfs
# zpool set bootfs=bunker bunker

5. install zfsboot
# zpool export bunker
# gpart bootcode -p /boot/zfsboot da0

6. write zfsloader to the ZFS Boot Block (so far, there's no dedicated tool
for this, so dd(1) has to be used for this purpose)
When using mirror/RAIDZ, step 4. and the dd(1) invocation should be repeated
for the additional disks in order to be able to boot from another disk in
case of failure.
# sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=0x10
# dd if=/boot/zfsloader of=/dev/da0a bs=512 oseek=1024 conv=notrunc
# zpool import bunker

7. install system on ZFS filesystem
Don't forget to set 'zfs_load="YES"' and vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:bunker" in
loader.conf as well as 'zfs_enable="YES"'in rc.conf.

8. copy zpool.cache to the ZFS filesystem
cp -p /boot/zfs/zpool.cache /bunker/boot/zfs/zpool.cache

9. set mountpoint
# zfs set mountpoint=/ bunker

10. Now, given that aliases for all disks in the zpool exists (check with
the `devalias` command on the boot monitor prompt) and disk0 corresponds
to da0 (likewise for additional disks), the system can be booted from the
ZFS with:
{1} ok boot disk0

# 151649 25-Oct-2005 marius

In ofw_parsedev() check the return value of malloc() and protect
against a NULL pointer dereference when ofw_parsedev() is called
with a NULL path argument.

Tested on: powerpc (grehan), sparc64


# 124140 04-Jan-2004 obrien

Convert to __FBSDID.


# 123703 21-Dec-2003 grehan

- Add ':' as a separator between the OpenFirmware device space and
the file path. Commonly used on Macs e.g. "hd:9".
- Update the ofw_setcurrdev routine to match libstand setenv prototype

Not objected to by: sparc64

Cut&Paste considered far too easy:

Don't include <sys/disklabel.h>


# 107483 02-Dec-2002 jake

Fix a dumb bug that broke net booting on sparc64. The wrong length was
passed to strncmp.

# 106738 10-Nov-2002 jake

Change the device path representation in libofw to use the full firmware
path, instead of an internal i386 specific one. Don't try to interpret
a disklabel in ofw_disk.c, open the partition's device node directly and
let the firmware do it. This fixes booting from a partition other than 'a'
on sparc64, which is needed to support more installation methods.

No objection: ppc


# 96423 11-May-2002 jake

Change the disk probing so that it will actually find disks other
than the first one on a controller, and work for secondary
controllers.
Due to the prom not having nodes for each disk, but a catch-all one,
we have to iterate over each device, trying to open it to determine
whether it is actually present.
Since probing this way takese some time (and spews some spurious
warnings), it should maybe be short-circuited if we use the
device we were booted from.
Implement lazy device probing, and correct slice/partiniton
handling in the ofwd_open() code. With this, I can now actually boot
a kernel from disk, and the loader does not create unnecessary
delays.

# 84968 15-Oct-2001 robert

Add a function for parsing an Open Firmware boot path into the
ofw_devdesc structure.


# 68548 10-Nov-2000 benno

OpenFirmware/PowerPC loader, part 2.

As of this patchset, the loader builds (under NetBSD/macppc), boots, interacts
and talks to BOOTP/NFS servers.

(main.c was moved from boot/ofw/libofw to boot/ofw/common but has no revision
history)

# 38475 22-Aug-1998 dfr

Minor tweaks to track a couple of i386 changes and to make it compile.


# 38465 21-Aug-1998 msmith

This is the new unified bootstrap, sometimes known previously as the
'three-stage' bootstrap.
There are a number of caveats with the code in its current state:
- The i386 bootstrap only supports booting from a floppy.
- The kernel and kld do not yet know how to deal with the extended
information and module summary passed in.
- PnP-based autodetection and demand loading of modules is not implemented.
- i386 ELF kernel loading is not ready yet.
- The i386 bootstrap is loaded via an ugly blockmap.

On the alpha, both net- and disk-booting (SRM console machines only) is
supported. No blockmaps are used by this code.
