Bugs happen but we should > attempt to not power off the machine and/or hang it when possible. prom_halt() should not power off the machine, but rather drop us to the OF command line "ok" prompt. Why doesn't it do that? We properly do a >tl1 vs. tl1 etrap call, so we should be at trap level zero when we call into the prom to "exit". -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
