branches: 1.1.2; 1.1.4; 1.1.6; 1.1.8; 1.1.62; Import the rs6000 port into the tree.
This port of NetBSD is intended to run on MCA-based IBM RS/6000 machines. The port so far has only been tested on a 7006-41T, which is a 601-based RS/6000. The port also contains a limited set of code for the 7012-3XX machines, but support for those is a long way off still.
The port builds and generates a working kernel, however, it still lacks bus_dma code for the MCA bus, so at present, only the com ports work, though any other device (such as the printer/keyboard) located on the ioplanar could probably be made to work. Work will continue on this port as I iron out the DMA code.
This port was made possible by a generous gonation of hardware by Kevin Bowling, who also provided much of the documentation for the port.
