This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
counters. These counters do not exist on all CPUs, but where they
do exist, can be used for counting events such as dcache misses that
would otherwise be difficult or impossible to instrument by code
inspection or hardware simulation.
pmc(9) is meant to be a general interface. Initially, the Intel XScale
counters are the only ones supported.
be properly used by any misc. cloning device. While here, correct
a comment to indicate that "open" is the only entry point and that
everything else is handled with fileops.
- Switch all m68k-based ports over to __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN.
- Add systrace glue.
- Define struct mdproc in <m68k/proc.h> instead of <machine/proc.h>.
(They were all defined exactly the same anyway, other than a couple
of the MDP_* flags.)
MALLOC_NOINLINE, and VNODE_OP_NOINLINE. The exceptions are when they
include another config files that already defines the options, or if
they are for an embedded board, just define a few extra options, and
do not already define PIPE_SOCKETPAIR.
- implement SIMPLEQ_REMOVE(head, elm, type, field). whilst it's O(n),
this mirrors the functionality of SLIST_REMOVE() (the other
singly-linked list type) and FreeBSD's STAILQ_REMOVE()
- remove the unnecessary elm arg from SIMPLEQ_REMOVE_HEAD().
this mirrors the functionality of SLIST_REMOVE_HEAD() (the other
singly-linked list type) and FreeBSD's STAILQ_REMOVE_HEAD()
- remove notes about SIMPLEQ not supporting arbitrary element removal
- use SIMPLEQ_FOREACH() instead of home-grown for loops
- use SIMPLEQ_EMPTY() appropriately
- use SIMPLEQ_*() instead of accessing sqh_first,sqh_last,sqe_next directly
- reorder manual page; be consistent about how the types are listed
- other minor cleanups
into kernel_object where this was missing.
This is a no-op on ports where VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS==0, ie all but
cesfic.
Confirmed and corrected by Chuck Silvers.
intvid didn't find the frame buffer on his PB 170 in NetBSD 1.5. This is
because the PowerBook 140/145+145B/170 entries in intvid_info[] were
entered into the table directly from the corresponding hardware tech
notes. Unfortunately, the actual frame buffer is mapped at an offset
of 32 KB from the base of the region (at least when in 32-bit mode).
Since all 4 of these systems have identical video configurations, I'm
updating the rest to match.
which are IIcx and IIx machines with not much RAM, respectively.
The PUMA config is configured somewhat optimally for one of Allen's
Quadras but doesn't do anything special as compared to SMALLRAM.
Note:
(1) Character device major number chages to 49 from 48(in my original
code). So it is necessary to rebuild device files.
(2) Must use Booter 2.0.0a10 or later.
(3) Default mode is cpu busy wait. It is defined by flags 0x1000.
It will be more slow than before.
No flags means hardware interrupt mode. But it might be able to
get no interrupts.
Support machines:
(1) Quadra 630 series
(2) PowerBook 150
Non tested machine:
(1) PowerBook 190 series

* Pull in dev/mii/files.mii from conf/files, rather than playing
the magic "files include order" dance in N machine-dependent
configuration definitions.
* Clean up after briggs@ changes to support bus_dma.
* Add support for reading sMemory resources from nubus cards.
* Add support for old cards with only the board rsrc (NatSemi NB-GPIB, e.g.)
* Add a few more card identifiers.
indicating an unhandled "command". ERESTART is -1, which can lead to
confusion. ERESTART has been moved to -3 and EPASSTHROUGH has been
placed at -4. No ioctl code should now return -1 anywhere. The
ioctl() system call is now properly restartable.
deal with shortages of the VM maps where the backing pages are mapped
(usually kmem_map). Try to deal with this:
* Group all information about the backend allocator for a pool in a
separate structure. The pool references this structure, rather than
the individual fields.
* Change the pool_init() API accordingly, and adjust all callers.
* Link all pools using the same backend allocator on a list.
* The backend allocator is responsible for waiting for physical memory
to become available, but will still fail if it cannot callocate KVA
space for the pages. If this happens, carefully drain all pools using
the same backend allocator, so that some KVA space can be freed.
* Change pool_reclaim() to indicate if it actually succeeded in freeing
some pages, and use that information to make draining easier and more
efficient.
* Get rid of PR_URGENT. There was only one use of it, and it could be
dealt with by the caller.

Be consistant in the way that MSIZE, MCLSHIFT, MCLBYTES and NMBCLUSTERS
are defined.
Remove old VM constants from cesfic port.
Bump MSIZE to 256 on mipsco (the only one that wasn't already 256).
- - Disable `options DIAGNOSTIC' by default, as the checks are reported to
be not really cheap.
- - Add `options COMPAT_AOUT_M68K', commented out, in preparation for ELF.
- - Remove `options EXEC_ELF32' from the kernel config. You can't just
build an ELF kernel -- you need to update your toolchain, and then,
once you go ELF, it's not an option, so it needs to go in std.mac68k,
as on the other m68k ports.
- - Comment out `options COMPAT_SUNOS'. This hasn't been reported to work
for a long time, so it's not very useful in GENERIC.
- - Enable `options IPFILTER_LOG', to go along with the `options GATEWAY'
and `pseudo-device ipfilter' motif.
While we're here, enable RAIDframe (and RAID_AUTOCONFIG) by default for
architectures that I'm comfortable can deal with it being on by default.
Also: bump the number of 'raid' devices from 4 to 8, since 4 seems to
be insufficient in practise.
one, so that we don't mess up the global count of wired pages by having
the page's wire_count be non-zero when we free the page.
pointed out by Michael Hitch.
Any problems reported by testers have been fixed, and massive
cross-compiling of kernels has shown that any problems that remain
with actually building kernels are not related to this.
not support a value (e.g., it's to be used as "options FOO" instead of
"options FOO=xxx"). options that take a value were converted to
defparam recently.
