CVS commit: src/sys/arch/arc/conf



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   tsutsui
Date:           Fri May 29 23:24:39 UTC 2020

Modified Files:
        src/sys/arch/arc/conf: GENERIC RAMDISK

Log Message:
Try to shrink kernels to smaller than ~6MB due to ARC BIOS restriction.

Currently NetBSD/arc kernels are loaded at 0x80200000
(on some machines ARC BIOS uses regions before it) and
ARC BIOS also uses around 0x807f0000, so bootloader fails
on loading >6MB kernels.

Note GXemul doesn't have this restriction because it loads
a kernel directly via a command line argument.

Tested by installing using sysinst on RAMDISK kernel on netbsd-9.

Should be pulled up to netbsd-9.
