  1. global scale sheevaplug & guruplug
  2. marvell 88f6281 (feroceon kirkwood) SoC
  3. arm926ej-s rev 1 [56251311] (armv5tejl) 1.2GHz cpu
  4. l1 I & D VIVT caches 16K each: 4-way, 128 sets, 32-byte lines
  5. l1 D is write-through, l1 I is write-back
  6. unified l2 PIPT cache 256K: 4-way, 2048 sets, 32-byte lines
  7. potentially 512K: 8-way
  8. apparently the mmu walks the page tables in dram and won't look in the
  9. l2 cache. there is no hardware cache coherence, thus the l1 caches
  10. need to be flushed or invalidated when mmu mappings change, but l2
  11. only needs to be flushed or invalidated around dma operations and page
  12. table changes, and only the affected dma buffers and descriptors or
  13. page table entries need to be flushed or invalidated in l2.
  14. we arrange that device registers are uncached.
  15. be aware that cache operations act on cache lines (of CACHELINESZ
  16. bytes) as atomic units, so if you invalidate 4 caches of a cache line,
  17. you invalidate the entire cache line, whether it's been written back
  18. (is clean) or not (is dirty). mixed data structures with parts
  19. maintained by hardware and other parts by software are especially
  20. tricky. we try to pad the initial hardware parts so that the software
  21. parts start in a new cache line.
  22. 512MB of dram at physical address 0
  23. 512MB of nand flash
  24. 16550 uart for console

  28. If you plan to use flash, it would be wise to avoid touching the first
  29. megabyte, which contains u-boot, right up to 0x100000. There's a
  30. linux kernel from there to 0x400000, if you care. You'll also likely
  31. want to use paqfs rather than fossil or kfs for file systems in flash
  32. since there is no wear-levelling.
  33. The code is fairly heavy-handed with the use of barrier instructions
  34. (BARRIERS in assembler, coherence in C), partly in reaction to bad
  35. experience doing Power PC ports, but also just as precautions against
  36. modern processors, which may feel free to execute instructions out of
  37. order or some time later, store to memory out of order or some time
  38. later, otherwise break the model of traditional sequential processors,
  39. or any combination of the above.
  40. this plan 9 port is based on the port of native inferno to the
  41. sheevaplug by Salva Peiró (saoret.one@gmail.com) and Mechiel Lukkien
  42. (mechiel@ueber.net).
