Here's an updated version of the patch, containing two changes:
* Solaris 8 doesn't support KSTAT_DATA_STRING.
* I've updated the list of known cpu types, based on the
/platform/sun4?/kernel/cpu{, /sparcv9} entries found in Solaris 8, 9,
10 and 11. It seems that the vendor field sometimes present there
(SUNW, TI, Ross, ...) is consistently absent in the kstat output.
While I could confirm this on all sun4u/sun4v system we have, I don't
have access to sun4m machines any longer, so it's just a guess.
Bootstrapped without regressions no sparc-sun-solaris2.{8, 9, 10, 11}
without regressions (Solaris 8 bootstrap still running), -mcpu is
correctly detected everywhere.
Ok for mainline?
Build parts are ok.
