Current ofwboot failure

[Martin Husemann <martin%duskware.de@localhost>]

Hey,

current ofwboot fails for me on a G5 powermac. It loads the kernel
(skipping several memory regions beyound 4G physical address) and
then lists two available regions, jumps to the kernel and crashes
(manual transcript, please excuse the left out parts):

avail region 2 start ...
Invalid memory access at %SRR0: ...00134b3c  %SRR1: 100000000000.0000003030


That would be:

(gdb) list *(0x00134b3c)
0x134b3c is in splraise (../../../../arch/powerpc/pic/intr.c:622).
617     splraise(int ncpl)
618     {
619             struct cpu_info *ci = curcpu();
620             int ocpl;
621     
622             if (ncpl == ci->ci_cpl)
623                     return ncpl;
624             REORDER_PROTECT();
625             ocpl = ci->ci_cpl;
626             KASSERT(ncpl < NIPL);


Using an older ofwboot the same kernel just boots fine.
Only relevant recent changes were in libsa it seems (but none looks
related to this). Maybe something in the kernel changed and older ofwboot
just is lucky?
