I guess you mean Iris GL. I have used Ygl under CentOS Linux without problems. Ygl emulates Iris GL and requires
a X11 server. I have attached the Readme file from Ygl (rename .txt to .htm).

Hello!

With the help of Google (and other companies) Javascript is on the rise. I like the idea of Javascript as a general purpose scripting language. Which of the newer Javascript versions (node.js, JSDB) may be compiled under Irix. I guess it maybe feasible to compile JSDB ( http://www.jsdb.org ), which compiles under Solaris, under Irix. I guess it is more difficult (or impossible) with node.js.
Has anyone tried to compile one of these?

I guess nobody here is interested in Javasript. I would try to compile it by myself but
I currently only have the MipsPro C-Compiler. JSDB needs a C-Compiler and a C++ Compiler
to compile.
Anyway, I will try to compile it with gcc and g++ within the next few days and report the results.
It would be nice to have one more programming language on Irix that is multi-platform without
source code change.

I have searched the forum and noticed that there is no message about the recent Pathscale compiler changes. The Pathscale Ekopath 4 compiler that was previously sold for approximately 2000 US$ is now open source. The press release is here:
http://www.pathscale.com/ekopath4-open- ... nouncement

The open source code for the compiler is here:
https://github.com/path64/compiler

The open source code for the debugger is here:
https://github.com/path64/debugger

There is an ongoing effort to integrate / release the MIPS64 backend of Ekopath 4, wich was a collaborative work of Pathscale and SiCortex.

I suggest the Webkit-based Titanium ( http://www.appcelerator.com/products/ti ... evelopment ). It can create
applications for MS Windows, Max OSX, Linux, Android and iPhone.
The downside is that it does not support Irix and it is not for high performance applications.

The following current laser printers use the PMC-Sierra RM7965:
The HP Color LaserJet CM6049f MFP uses a 835 MHz RM7965
The Lexmark X736de uses a 900 MHz RM7965
See here: http://www.find-printers.com/comparison ... ark_x736de

If someone finds a cheap source for a Lexmark X736de mainboard then please post it in this forum. The RM7965 has a EJTAG interface which
manufacturers usually use to check a printed circuit board. This printer mainboard probably has reprogramable Flash chips which would help if
one wants to run self-written code.
If the EJTAG pins from this Lexmark printer board are known then it can be used as a Development board for the RM7965 - which is one step
to a custom RM7965 O2 CPU board.

I have Irix 6.5.29 on my 300 MHz O2 and it runs fine. If you already have the CDs for 6.5.30 I would use it.
I would, as already was recommended, buy a SCSI hard disk and install Irix 6.5.30 to it.

It is possible that licenses for software is still on your hard disk and that only the files
for executing the software have been deleted.

Overkill is a BBS game and it seems to be free.
From their website (Link: http://www.operationoverkill.com/forum/ ... topic=19.0 ):
"Overkill now runs on the following Operating Systems: Windows, Linux, IRIX.
Processors: Intel x86, MIPS III/IV 32bit"

I have already searched the forum with no match for the word operationoverkill.com so I thought I mention it because
others maybe interested, although I probably will never play this type of game.

I recently attended a wireless seminar where these Philips Hue lights were shown. Although
they have many features I think handling them is not user-friendly and they are too expensive, too.

Some months before I attended a seminar from JenNet. Before they were bought by NXP they
promised to create wireless control enabled light bulbs for one Euro (approx 1.2 US$) surcharge
on the price of a light bulb. GenNet has developed a light-weight network stack that works good
for controlling a few hundred devices (like light bulbs).
Another question is if NXP still wants to sell wireless control enabled light bulbs for only 1 Euro
surcharge (Link: http://www.jennic.com/products/protocol ... /jennet-ip ).

I like the scientific papers from the DEC research lab that contain MIPS-based DEC hardware and information about the
inner workings of X11. I once played with the thought to buy a DECstation just because I wanted to learn more about
X11 internals. Now, some Ultrix versions are open-source and this makes a DECstation even more attractive.
I like the simple and elegant DECstation graphic card architecture which offloads complexity to the processor.

Although not a direct answer to your question I recommend to look at Mint 2.8 - a Mips emulator. I compiles under
Irix and little-endian Mips-based DECstations. Mint is an R3000 emulator and executes a Mips-binary by running it
snippet for snippet on the host processor. This is why the host processor has to be a Mips processor.
The source code for Mint 2.8 is available and I recently successfully compiled it with gcc 3.0 (gcc 3.3 and newer don't work).
Google for "fw_gcc-3.0.4.tardist" if you want to find gcc 3.0 for Irix.
I have attached two PDF-documents about Mint.

You can do parallel programming with MIPS-based hardware under Irix, too. For example if you buy a iSPAN 55MC8
PCI-X card (Link: http://www.iphase.com/products/product.cfm/PCI/441 ) and plug it into one of the
PCI-X slots of a sgi Fuel. Next, you have to write a driver that runs under Irix and can use the iSpan card.
If the driver is finished you can enjoy programming the 16 MIPS64 cores each running at up to 750 MHz.

I promise if you can do that, major high-end networking hardware companies like Cisco will be very interested
in hiring you when you finished university.

If you are interested in Z80 systems I recommend to take a look at the eZ80 from Zilog.
There are some single-board-computer systems based on eZ80 like the EZ80F915005
(Link: http://www.digikey.com/product-search/e ... Z80F915005 ).
The eZ80 can run unmodified Z80 binaries and additionally has an extended mode with
16 MByte address space. There is a free IDE and a free C compiler available from Zilog (now part of Ixys).
The eZ80 C compiler is one of the few C compilers with a int size of three Bytes.

I have a 180 MHz O2, a 300 MHz O2 and a 600 MHz Fuel and the following other MIPS-based computers:
Sony PSP (custom-firmware enabled), Routerboard RB532A (link: http://www.roc-noc.com/mikrotik/routerboard/rb532a.html ) and ADM5120-based routers ( http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/Adm5120 ).
I started to concentrate on MIPS-based sgi hardware because of several reasons:

1. IO-device support for humans is better, for example
it is not possible to connect a monitor to the RB532A or to the ADM5120-based routers that I have.
2. They are the last working big-endian computers that I have. My Amiga stopped working more than 10 years ago
and my old Sun workstation only has a 40 MHz processor with monochrome screen. Sometimes I want to be
sure that my software runs on little-endian and big-endian computers.
3. I like the MIPS architecture more than ARM.
4. I like that there is no update hassle under Irix like under Windows.
5. I am using PIC32 microcontrollers for my paid work. Although PIC32 are little endian, it helps me to have
MIPS-based desktop computers when writing software for MIPS-based computers.

I know some people only collect sgi hardware because once upon a time their price was more than 10000 US$,
however for me this is no reason. I would use sgi hardware even if they would have been home computers
(like Amiga) before.

Yes, I have. It has 4 GBit/s Fibrechannel ports and GBit Ethernet ports. I am pretty sure that there are
no available drivers for these ports if I would try to use NetBSD. I would therefore lose these ports
even if I would be successful in installing NetBSD.

Well, I currently don't have much information about the hardware. I plan to switch from Linux/x86 to Linux/MIPS

I would very welcome to have NetBSD for my new multi-core Sibyte Computer, however I just read that even
NetBSD/Mips stopped to support Irix in NetBSD after 5.0 Quote from https://www.netbsd.org/changes/changes-6.0.html#kernel : "Support for Darwin, Mach, IRIX and PECOFF emulation was retired. [joerg 20110426]"
The manufacturer used an FPGA as a chipset, which of course cannot be supported by the standard NetBSD
drivers.
Well, I will try to boot NetBSD/Mips 5.0 and see how far it goes.

jan-jaap wrote: No, it doesn't. I tried once but the build system was sufficiently Linuxified that I lost interest.

While it does have a MIPS code generator these days, it's not from MIPSpro.

The IRIX/MIPSpro compiler works like this:
* Front end: licensed from 3rd party, the Edinburgh Compiler Group (EDG). Many other commerial UNIX vendors used this front end, including the DEC/Compaq compilers for Tru64, and I'm pretty sure the Intel Compilers use it.
* Intermediate (optimizer): built by SGI
* Back end (code generator for MIPS CPUs): built by SGI.

Later, SGI built a new back end for IA64 CPUs, and open sourced the compiler as Open64. They couldn't open source parts they didn't own (EDG) so they replaced it with bits from GCC. The MIPS back end code was not open sourced.

Later on, other people implemented new back ends from scratch for x86-64, and MIPS.


The answers from jan-jaap are currently the best in this thread (you know compilers, don't you? :) ). I have
worked several months with the Open64 compiler, so I am adding some missing pieces here. There is a library called
libspin in Open64 which translates gcc's Tree IR to the Open64 IR. The IR of Open64 is called WHIRL. One interesting aspect
of WHIRL is that all possible input languages which is C, C++, and Fortran 90 are compiled to the same IR. WHIRL has five levels: Very High WHIRL, High WHIRL, Mid WHIRL, Low WHIRL and Very Low WHIRL. Different compiler phases work on different
WHIRL levels. There is an ASCII representation of WHIRL, too which can be dumped after a compiler phase.

If you want to see for yourself I have attached WHIRL documents from sgi and from Open64.

Yes, it would be slow in execution. But you would have the improved cycle time of not needing to deal with a full kernel build (or even "just" the dance for a loadable module), you can bring a normal debugger to bear, and so on. And once it's all running reasonably well, then you can consider building it as a kernel module. And until then, well, now you don't have to worry nearly as much about keeping it in sync with the Linux kernel because the ABI doesn't change incompatibly all that often.


The SimOS project achieved emulating IRIX. The SimOS project is open-source now and available on the internet.
A quote from the SimOS PHD:

"The initial version of SimOS models uniprocessor and multiprocessor computer
systems in enough detail to run Silicon Graphics’s IRIX operating system as well as the
large class of applications designed for this platform."

He even had access to the IRIX source code as the second quote shows:
"I would also like to thank the National Science Foundation and the Intel Foundation for
the graduate research fellowships that supported me at Stanford, ARPA for funding this
project in contract DABT63-94-C-0054, and Silicon Graphics for the machines and IRIX
source code with which SimOS was developed."

Another quote from the PHD:
"By running the IRIX operating system, a SimOS-modeled computer system is binary-compatible with
computer systems shipped by Silicon Graphics, and can support the execution of almost
any program designed for that platform."

If you are looking for a free processor core, I suggest the Microblaze MCS which

Well, you could write a new backend for gcc, Open64 or Open Watcom, but the disadvantage is
that these compiler all have more than 1 million lines of code. You probably need one year full-time
only to understand how the compiler internally works. As mentionend in the paper that you attached, there is LCC which is a C89 C-Compiler that has much less lines of code. You need to borrow or buy
the LCC book if you want to retarget LCC because only in the book is the necessary information.
In my opinion LCC is less suited as a C-Compiler for a new processor. One reason is that the LCC source code is more complicated than necessary. Another reason is the lack of end user documentation and a third reason is, that if your processor has instructions that don't fit to the
IR of LCC your version of LCC will generate slow code.

I suggest to have a look at the almost forgotten Desmet C compiler 3.1h, which is a ANSI C compiler and is open source (see: http://www.desmet-c.com ). Desmet C was a commercial C-compiler in the MS-DOS era. Advantages are:
- It is a production quality C compiler with full end-user documentation.
- It is small enough that one man can understand the complete C-compiler source within some
weeks.
- It is not a resource hog (MS-DOS only had 640 kByte RAM).

P.S.
Some people use a Raspberry Pi to run an MS-DOS emulator.
