[comp.arch] AT&T's 1-4 Processor StarServer

campbell@sauron.Columbia.NCR.COM (Mark Campbell) (06/14/90)

Anyone got details concerning AT&T's 1-4 processor box that they
showed last week?  I've got some literature coming, but was wondering
if anyone knew anything about the system that I could find out
about sooner.

Any information would be nice; however, some specific questions are:

 o Is the 256K cache direct-mapped?
 o Process/memory bus details (more than "...a pair of semi-independent
   64-bit data buses...linked by a single 32-bit address bus."
 o Details of the multiprocessing interrupt controller.
 o I/O subsystem details.
 o Performance and scalability.
 o Version of OS currently used (V.3.2?, V.4?, etc.)

 o Details of the StarServer FT.

Thanks.
