Do you mean the last patch he sent to us or are there some earlier
unapplied patches?

The last patch _seems_ to be mainly refactoring and disabling features
which are not
presented in certain models. I might have missed something of course:
the patch is large.

For me is also interesting what do we miss in the microSPARC implementation.
If I switch off POST (which crashes due to the known FPU problems)
LX/CX/X OBPs hang. Looks like it's expecting some interrupt (the SS-5
OBP escapes a similar endless loop on a timer irq), but not getting
it.
Do you know anything obvious qemu is missing in LX machine?
