Fellow DECstation hackers,
the subject says it all. This one is, as usual, based on the latest CVS source
tree
and is available at the usual place. (Thanks, Michael)
linux-2.1.121-pre2 works both on R3000 and R4000 based DECstations and contains
all
bugfixes for pre1 I have received so far. Additionally it includes Ralf's
get_mmu_context() proposal which seems to work nicely on R3000 and R4000
targets.
Nevertheless I am actually working on a patch to fix a few things I have
overseen
before I uploaded 2.1.121-pre2 B-) to make this source tree compile with
egcs-1.0.2.
To be able to compile this kernel, you have to patch your gcc spec file (mine
is in
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/mipsel-linux/2.7.2/) and you have to rebuild your
binutils,
or to be more precise as, with Gleb O. Raiko's patch when you want to compile a
kernel for a R3000 target. Both patches are available at
http://decstation.unix-ag.org.
This kernel is *not* generic i.e., you have to choose the right CPU Type (either
R3000 or R4x00) for your DECstation.
Happy hacking.

Harald
