They make their own via the /Moscow Center of SPARC Technologies./
Check out the Elbrus architecture, its pretty clever. It can run native
SPARC binaries and also has a fairly efficient x86 compatibility layer
built into the hardware. The way they achieve bi-endian capability is
pretty neat, i

They may be PZ00. Take care not to mix different types of screws and
bits! PH and PZ look very much alike.

IMHO this is a "zero day panic" of massive hardware destruction.
imho use the official documentation, not separated wiki. this is the right way.

Is that https://www.openbsd.org/loongson.html or are you referring to

Marko: Thanks for your input. Your proposals got me thinking a few steps
further.
I now came up with the following solution which have all propertiers i want:
pass in on re0 inet to !all:network
pass in on re0 inet to em0:network # Just in case we would need to interact
# with some other service
Also I don't believe any of these mechanisms are able to protect against
meltdown or spectre. I think *BSD is no more immune than any other
system, without performing the same separation between user and kernel
memory.

Yes, it is open hardware. No, it is not COTS, unfortunately. Low cost is due to
high volume, and SPARC is hard to find.

The answer is: genuine FUD. The news is hitting the media with more emphasis
than a North Corean nuclear test, the uncertainty is due to yet another
hardware feature that was implemented by Intel to steal secrets across
different OSs, and the doubt of whether OBSD will pass this new test.

Doesn't it tell anybody anything that none of the developers have commented?
After upgrading to the Jan 4 amd64 snapshot, I do not see a login box. I
can ssh to the machine, and run X applications in an X server, but no
graphical login at the console. dmesg below.
