Apple PowerMac G5 Quad - FreeBSD
More info on main page.
This machine is tested with (runs) FreeBSD / ppc.
FreeBSD is installed on drive ad0, which is sliced up as this:
ad0s2 - 800k - Apple_Bootstrap - boot partition, contains bootcode ad0s3 - 74G - FreeBSD-UFS - FreeBSD 8.2-release ad0s4 - 4G - FreeBSD-swap - FreeBSD swap partition ad0s5 - 800k - apple-bootstrap - boot partition ad0s6 - 74G - freebsd-ufs - FreeBSD 9.0 current
Work log
2011-03-27: ad0s6 - Finally, after many hours, making and installing world finished. The machine now runs an update FreeBSD 9.0-current on ad0s6. dmesg output: normal, verbose.

2011-03-26: ad0s6 - booting manually (breaking into boot, unload kernel, set currdev=/ht@0,f2000000/pci@9/k2-sata-root@c/k2-sata@0/disk@0:6,
load /boot/kernel/kernel, boot), trying to upgrade the machine via csup. To avoid panics, I am turning off ntpd, then setting
sysctl machdep.disable_rtc_set=1. Now running csup. Now making world, which takes a looong time...
2011-03-24: ad0s3 - sound is through the snd_ai2s module, which gives this:
root@kg-g5# cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 32bit 2009061500/powerpc) Installed devices: pcm0: <Apple I2S Audio Controller> (play) default root@kg-g5# tail /var/log/messages Mar 24 22:00:00 kg-g5 newsyslog[1374]: logfile turned over due to size>100K Mar 24 22:01:03 kg-g5 kernel: aoagpio1: [ITHREAD] Mar 24 22:01:03 kg-g5 kernel: aoagpio4: [ITHREAD] Mar 24 22:01:03 kg-g5 kernel: pcm0: <Apple I2S Audio Controller> mem 0x10000-0x10fff,0x8000-0x80ff,0x8100-0x81ff irq 28,11,12,30,15,16 on macio0 Mar 24 22:01:03 kg-g5 kernel: pcm0: [ITHREAD]
I also added loading of snd_ai2s to /boot/loader.conf:
root@kg-g5# more /boot/loader.conf snd_ai2s_load="YES"
2011-03-24: ad0s3 - upgraded to FreeBSD 8.2-stable, using csup and make world. dmesg output: normal, verbose.

2011-03-21: ad0s3 - building a new kernel. I want a SMP kernel, and I am using this kernel config file:
root@kg-g5# more /sys/powerpc/conf/G5 # # G5 - GENERIC kernel, plus SMP # based on # GENERIC -- Generic kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/powerpc # include GENERIC ident G5-GENERIC options SMP
Really simple stuff. (Notes to self: the file really lives at /root/kernels/G5, and is linked into the conf directory). Making the new kernel
cd /usr/src make buildkernel KERNCONF=G5 make installkernel KERNCONF=G5
just in case the build fails. Build went ok, but upon booting the new kernel I get this:
avail memory = 1996509184 (1904 MB) SMP: cpu2: skipped -- ID out of range SMP: cpu3: skipped -- ID out of range FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 4 CPUs cpu0: dev=ff89d680 (BSP) cpu1: dev=ff89eb70 panic: Built bad topology at 0x866aec.

and there it hangs. Ouch. Later: I found out through the freebsd-ppc mailing list that SMP isn't in 8.2 yet. Ok.
2011-03-20: Ok, let's restore what we backed up. First we add some partitions:
root@kg-g5# gpart add -s 800k -t apple-boot ad0 ad0s5 added root@kg-g5# gpart bootcode -p /boot/boot1.hfs -i 4 ad0
I'll use this to boot the next one, if possible.
root@kg-g5# gpart add -s 74G -t freebsd-ufs ad0 ad0s6 added
Then it is time to newfs it:

Ok, ok already. On with the restore (I had previously copied the dump file to the machine):
root@kg-g5# mount /dev/ad0s6 /mnt root@kg-g5# cd /mnt root@kg-g5# gzcat /tmp/g5-root-dump2.gz | restore -rf - warning: ./.snap: File exists expected next file 7371777, got 10 root@kg-g5#
That was it. Let's try to verify it:
root@kg-g5# cd root@kg-g5# umount /mnt root@kg-g5# fsck -y /dev/ad0s6 fsck: Could not determine filesystem type
Huh? Let's try it another way:
root@kg-g5# mount /dev/ad0s6 /mnt root@kg-g5# fsck /mnt fsck: Could not determine filesystem type
Oh well, since it can be mounted, it should be good. And indeed it is good. I had to boot it manually, by breaking into the boot prompt (before the kernel boots) and entering
set currdev=/ht......disk@0:6 unload kernel load kernel boot
to get the right kernel to boot (currdev was ...disk@0:3 initially, which I guessed was ad0s3). Of course I forgot to modify /etc/fstab on that slice (ad0s6), so the first time it mounted ad0s3 as root partition. But it didn't crash, and that was easily enough fixed. After that, manually changing load device (currdev) works.
2011-03-20: thermal monitoring - I renamed my "fancontrol" to thermald, put it into /usr/local/bin and made a little script for starting in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/thermald. Tested, and appears to work well.
2011-03-20: reinstall time. I booted from the FreeBSD 8.2-release CD for powerpc, started a shell and did:
# gpart delete -i 3 ad0 ad0s4 deleted # gpart delete -i 2 ad0 ad0s3 deleted Then I made new ones: # gpart add -s 74G -t freebsd-ufs ad0 ad0s3 added # gpart add -s 4 G -t freebsd-swap ad0 ad0s4 added
Unfortunately, sysinstall still saw the old partitions, so I had to reboot to get the new ones visible. After the reboot, the installation worked nicely. dmesg output: normal, verbose. First step after installation was to get my "fancontrol" program compiled and set up, to quiet those load fans. Seems to work nicely.
2011-03-20: using dump for backup:

2011-03-20: documenting drives and stuff. The machine has two drives, one for OS X and one for FreeBSD. OS X hard drive:

That's it.
2011-03-13: As always, people on the mailing lists (in this case, the freebsd-ppc mailing list) has the answers: temperatures are read from the dev.smusat driver:
tingo@kg-g5$ sysctl dev.smusat dev.smusat.0.%desc: SMU Satellite Sensors dev.smusat.0.%driver: smusat dev.smusat.0.%location: addr=0xb0 dev.smusat.0.%pnpinfo: name=sat compat=smu-sat dev.smusat.0.%parent: iicbus2 dev.smusat.0.cpu_a0_vcore: 1 dev.smusat.0.cpu_a1_vcore: 1 dev.smusat.0.cpu_a0_diode_temp: 37 dev.smusat.0.cpu_a1_diode_temp: 45 dev.smusat.0.cpu_a0_core_current: 21 dev.smusat.0.cpu_a1_core_current: 33 dev.smusat.1.%desc: SMU Satellite Sensors dev.smusat.1.%driver: smusat dev.smusat.1.%location: addr=0xb2 dev.smusat.1.%pnpinfo: name=sat compat=smu-sat dev.smusat.1.%parent: iicbus2 dev.smusat.1.cpu_b0_vcore: 1 dev.smusat.1.cpu_b1_vcore: 1 dev.smusat.1.cpu_b0_diode_temp: 44 dev.smusat.1.cpu_b1_diode_temp: 45 dev.smusat.1.cpu_b0_core_current: 33 dev.smusat.1.cpu_b1_core_current: 34
and fans are controlled with the dev.smu.0.fans controller:
tingo@kg-g5$ sysctl dev.smu.0.fans dev.smu.0.fans.drive_bay_a_intake.minrpm: 1000 dev.smu.0.fans.drive_bay_a_intake.maxrpm: 4000 dev.smu.0.fans.drive_bay_a_intake.rpm: 3997 dev.smu.0.fans.backside.minrpm: 1100 dev.smu.0.fans.backside.maxrpm: 3000 dev.smu.0.fans.backside.rpm: 3003 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_intake.minrpm: 485 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_intake.maxrpm: 3200 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_intake.rpm: 3198 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_intake.minrpm: 485 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_intake.maxrpm: 3200 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_intake.rpm: 3200 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_exhaust.minrpm: 500 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_exhaust.maxrpm: 3200 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_exhaust.rpm: 3197 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_exhaust.minrpm: 500 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_exhaust.maxrpm: 3200 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_exhaust.rpm: 3199 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_pump.minrpm: 1250 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_pump.maxrpm: 3600 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_a_pump.rpm: 3662 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_pump.minrpm: 1250 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_pump.maxrpm: 3600 dev.smu.0.fans.cpu_b_pump.rpm: 3615 dev.smu.0.fans.expansion_slots_intake.minrpm: 1560 dev.smu.0.fans.expansion_slots_intake.maxrpm: 4500 dev.smu.0.fans.expansion_slots_intake.rpm: 4479
now I only need to control them. Luckily, Nathan Whitehorn sent a link to the program he usea on his dual core G5: powermac112-fancontrol.c. I adapted that by adding in more fans, and called it powermac112-fancontrol-ti.c, and if that one is running, my fans quiet down.
2011-03-12: it seems like this machine has a different fan controller, it doesn't grok the fcu driver:
root@kg-g5# sysctl dev.fcu sysctl: unknown oid 'dev.fcu'
and the fans are full on. It has a SMU unit:

But reading it doesn't quiet the fans.
2011-03-12: I took the Samsung hard drive out of the other g5, put it into this machine, fixed the fstab (I used the bsdinstall livecd for that; the drive is now ad0, it used to be ad1), and booted FreeBSD from it:

2011-03-12: I tried the bsdinstall-powerpc64-20110308 image, it wouldn't boot with "C", but from Open Firmware (Cmd-Opt-O-F) I could boot it with
boot cd:,\BOOT\LOADER.;1 cd:0
a bit cumbersome, but it works. It booted straight to the menu, I selected LiveCD, then did ifconfig bge0 up, dhclient bge0. Network ok. Everything on the root file system is mounted read-only, so I didn't mess around trying to fix dns etc, I just lived with it. Getting a dmesg off the machine:
dmesg > /tmp/somefile.txt scp /tmp/somefile.txt user@ip-address:~/directory/somefile.txt
dmesg output is here: normal.
2011-03-11: I booted FreeBSD 8.2-release from a CD made from the FreeBSD-8.2-RELEASE-powerpc-disc1.iso image. I held down the Alt (Option) key, the boot selector came up, and i selected the CD, it booted into sysinstall after letting me choose keyboard layout. Cool! From the sound of the fans, it doesn't look like the fcu driver is included in FreeBSD 8.2-release.
