Hi All,
I would suggest that, for now, we address the bug itself by
merely converting sunlance over to the of_*() interfaces.
The patch below is what I'm going to check in upstream.
If you find anything interesting in arch/sparc/prom/tree.c et al.
please let me know.
I has a look through it but since it works for both my SS1 and SS2, it
would seem that this is a problem that is specific to the SMP system. In
some Solaris source I found on the web, there are some odd comments about
the OBP locking to an specific processor, resulting in prom calls from
other processors entering a never ending spin-lock. Maybe it could be
related to this.
Regards
Mark Fortescue.
