-usr/src/uts/i86/promif for x86 (please update as required)
-
-Merge work (here and stand.i386/boot/promif) is done in July 1994.
-
-1) The merge is mechanic and textual, no attempt in re-design this interface.
- There are other projects that will replace this piece of code.
-
-2) Three kind of binaries are generated:
- #if defined(_KMDB)
- for kmdb to use
- #if defined(I386BOOT)
- for booters (inetboot and ufsboot) to use and linked
- together as libprom.a
- #if !defined(_KMDB) && !defined(I386BOOT)
- for kernel to use in *.o form

- The new plan is to do away with most of the prom lib, keeping only those
-routines that are truely common to the three prom clients (kernel, kadb, and
-second level boot). The modules that remain are:
-
- prom_printf.c
- prom_getchar.c
- prom_putchar.c
- prom_getverion.c
- prom_init.c
-
-Everything else (which used the 3-way #ifdef's described above), has been
-moved off into client-specific modules:
-
- .../psm/stand/boot/i386/prom.c
- .../psm/stand/kadb/i386/prom.c
