This exists for compatibility with a Linux interface which was apparently
deprecated in Linux 2.6. There are various mailing list threads going
back to 2004 where the usefulness of this driver is discussed, but
the conclusion is that scanner software has all moved to using ugen(4)
instead, and enabling this driver will not help you scan things.
Simplify and make extensible the config_search() / config_found() /
config_attach() interfaces: rather than having different variants for
which arguments you want pass along, just have a single call that
takes a variadic list of tag-value arguments.
Adjust all call sites:
- Simplify wherever possible; don't pass along arguments that aren't
actually needed.
- Don't be explicit about what interface attribute is attaching if
the device only has one. (More simplification.)
- Add a config_probe() function to be used in indirect configuiration
situations, making is visibly easier to see when indirect config is
in play, and allowing for future change in semantics. (As of now,
this is just a wrapper around config_match(), but that is an
implementation detail.)
Remove unnecessary or redundant interface attributes where they're not
needed.
There are currently 5 "cfargs" defined:
- CFARG_SUBMATCH (submatch function for direct config)
- CFARG_SEARCH (search function for indirect config)
- CFARG_IATTR (interface attribte)
- CFARG_LOCATORS (locators array)
- CFARG_DEVHANDLE (devhandle_t - wraps OFW, ACPI, etc. handles)
...and a sentinel value CFARG_EOL.
Add some extra sanity checking to ensure that interface attributes
aren't ambiguous.
Use CFARG_DEVHANDLE in MI FDT, OFW, and ACPI code, and macppc and shark
ports to associate those device handles with device_t instance. This
will trickle trough to more places over time (need back-end for pre-OFW
Sun OBP; any others?).
- Don't expose how PCI bus configuration resource management is implemented.
Provide a new resource provider API:
==> pciconf_resource_init() -- Initialize a PCI configuration resources
container.
==> pciconf_resource_add() -- Add a PCI configuration resource to the
container (I/O, MEM, or prefetchable MEM). Multiple resources of
each type may be added.
==> pciconf_resource_fini() -- Tear down the PCI configurtation resources
container once the bus has been configured.
This is much easier to use than the previous method of providing an
extent map for each kind of resource, and works better for e.g. ACPI
platforms that provide potentially multiple PCI resources in tables
provided by firmware.
- Re-implement PCI configuration resource management using vmem arenas,
rather than extent maps.
And the associated ezload EZ-USB code, which is only used by uyap.
It could theoretically be used by other drivers, but none of them are
in tree.
I suspect that this device isn't in use, as phone technology has improved
a lot since 2001 when uyap(4) was added to the tree.
Proposed with no objections on netbsd-users on 13 April 2020
At this point it is highly unlikely this 1999 device still has users,
but it still comes up in the context of maxv's USB-fuzzing (and any device
could pretend to be a urio(4)), so it's best to get rid of it.
Renamed all major entries to obsolete, as was done in previous removals.
This still requires an update to sanitizers, but they're located in
"external", perhaps it should be first committed upstream?
Proposed on tech-kern a month ago.
- If the config had both an le@pci and a pcn, simply remove le@pci
(pcn would match at a higher priority anyway).
- If the config had le@pci enabled, but no pcn, change le@pci to pcn.
- If the config had le@pci commented out, but no pcn, change le@pci
to pcn and leave it commented out.
The pcn driver supports more chips than le@pci and does DMA directly
to/from mbufs rather than memory copies.
- Every driver that was removed and whose number hasn't already been
reused is now listed with a commented-out "obsolete" line.
- The format of these has been systematized. Future format changes can
probably be safely done with a script.
- This does not include a few cases of assignments that only lasted a
couple days, or stuff from before major reorgs. Some of these may
be included nonetheless, because there was a lot of ground to cover
and therefore not a lot of time to dig into history in detail.
Note that the obsolete listings do not mean the major numbers can
never be reused; that's up to portmasters and/or core. It does mean
that they won't be reused by accident, however, which in some cases
(depending on the driver, how widely used it was, its family of device
nodes, their default permissions, etc.) can be quite dangerous.
Note that some of the things now explicitly listed as obsolete are
really ancient history. My scan went back as far as when the majors
files were added. (But not before that.)
also move BLKDEV_IOSIZE, MAXPHYS, but allow override since some ports
have different value (powerpc uses NBPG for BLKDEV_IOSIZE, sun2/sun3
have lower MAXPHYS)
is of poor quality, and is now an obstacle to MP-ification. It was removed
ten years ago from FreeBSD for the same reason.
This retires a big user of the mbuf API, and will ease maintenance of the
kernel.
This change:
* Removes "options PERFCTRS", the associated includes, and the associated
ifdefs. In doing so, it removes several XXXSMPs in the MI code, which is
good.
* Removes the PMC code of ARM XSCALE.
* Removes all the pmc.h files. They were all empty, except for ARM XSCALE.
* Reorders the x86 PMC code not to rely on the legacy pmc.h file. The
definitions are put in sysarch.h.
* Removes the kern/sys_pmc.c file, and along with it, the sys_pmc_control
and sys_pmc_get_info syscalls. They are marked as OBSOL in kern,
netbsd32 and rump.
* Removes the pmc_evid_t and pmc_ctr_t types.
* Removes all the associated man pages. The sets are marked as obsolete.
- new series of files that are useful for saying "i want everything
since netbsd 1.4", etc.
- use the fact COMPAT_* options have future dependancies to remove
many redundant options.
removes about 3000 lines total across kernel configuration files.
tested about 30 random kernels in the changed list.
- Add PCI Extended Configuration Space support into x86.
- Check register offset of pci_conf_read() in MD part. It returns (pcireg_t)-1
if it isn't accessible.
- Decode Extended Capability in PCI Extended Configuration Space.
Currently the following extended capabilities are decoded:
- Advanced Error Reporting
- Virtual Channel
- Device Serial Number
- Power Budgeting
- Root Complex Link Declaration
- Root Complex Event Collector Association
- Access Control Services
- Alternative Routing-ID Interpretation
- Address Translation Services
- Single Root IO Virtualization
- Page Request
- TPH Requester
- Latency Tolerance Reporting
- Secondary PCI Express
- Process Address Space ID
- LN Requester
- L1 PM Substates
The following extended capabilities are not decoded yet:
- Root Complex Internal Link Control
- Multi-Function Virtual Channel
- RCRB Header
- Vendor Unique
- Configuration Access Correction
- Multiple Root IO Virtualization
- Multicast
- Resizable BAR
- Dynamic Power Allocation
- Protocol Multiplexing
- Downstream Port Containment
- Precision Time Management
- M-PCIe
- Function Reading Status Queueing
- Readiness Time Reporting
- Designated Vendor-Specific
config(1)/config(5) can't handle module dependency correctly at this
moment.
(This is another proof that shared file definition (`file xxx.c a|b')
is a bad idea.)
There are quite a few configs that are missing some COMPAT_NN options
in ways that don't make sense; this should probably get cleaned up
too, but for the time being I've not added or removed anything.
replaced by the make option COPY_SYMTAB set to any value. The copy of
the symbol table is no longer put into a buffer in kern_ksyms.o, but a
small helper object. This object is build first with a dummy size, then
the kernel is linked to compute the real dimension of the symbol table
buffer. After that, the helper object is rebuild and the kernel linked
again.
