This appendix describes some information that is different in this PCI-bus-based system than in an Sbus-based Sun system.
The banner output is as follows, indicating that it is a PCI-based system by showing "UPA/PCI" in banner
ok banner Sun Ultra 30 UPA/PCI (UltraSPARC 200MHz), Keyboard Present OpenBoot 3.9, 64 MB memory installed, Serial #8431666 Ethernet address 8:0:20:80:a8:32, Host ID: 8080a832
Note that the output of show-devs command shows some PCI- based nodes. Also, PCI-based systems use generic names for devices. On-board network is named "network", and internal disks are named "diskn", representing the scsi target number for that disk.
Plug in PCI cards with their own FCodePROM may or may not be using generic names. For details on generic names, see Recommended Practices available on homepage for Open Firmware Working Group at: http://playground.sun.com/1275

When you look at properties for the device node of a PCI device, you will see few properties that are unique to PCI devices and few properties has a different format than that of a SBus device. For example, the output of .properties for a PCI device is:
ok cd /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3 ok .properties interrupts 00000020 assigned-addresses 81001810 00000000 00000400 00000000 00000100 82001814 00000000 00010000 00000000 00000100 82001818 00000000 00011000 00000000 00001000 device_type scsi-2 clock-frequency 02625a00 reg 00001800 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 01001810 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000100 02001814 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000100 02001818 00000000 00000000 00000000 00001000 model Symbios,53C875 compatible gl name scsi devsel-speed 00000001 class-code 00010000 max-latency 00000040 min-grant 00000011 revision-id 00000003 device-id 0000000f vendor-id 00001000
The following example shows generic names for devices under /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3:
ok ls f00809d8 tape f007ecdc disk
The command .speed shows the speed for the processor and busses attached to the system:
ok .speed CPU Speed : 200.00MHz UPA Speed : 100.00MHz PCI Bus A : 66Mhz PCI Bus B : 33Mhz
The Sun Ultra 30 UPA/PCI system has two PCI busses, pcia & pcib. The probing of slots for those busses are controlled by the following two NVRAM configuration variables.
Table E-1 PCI Slots
Variable Name |
Default value |
Description |
---|---|---|
pcia-probe-list |
1,2 |
Controls probe order of plug-in devices under pcia |
pcib-probe-list |
3,2,4,5 |
Controls probe order of plug-in devices under pcib |
pcia-probe-list corresponds to devices under /pci@1f,2000 and pcib-probe-list corresponds to devices under /pci@1f,4000.
pcia supports one plug-in client (slot 1, marked as "PCI 1, 66" ). It can support a device which is 64 bits wide and runs up to 66Mhz. Even though there is no client/slot under pcia corresponding to value 2, 2 is included in pcia-probe-list default value for historical reasons.
pcib supports three plug -in clients (slot 2,4, and 5; marked as "PCI 2", "PCI 3", and "PCI 4" respectively). pcib can support devices which are 64 bits wide and run upto 33Mhz.
