kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework
currently supported events include socket, file, directory, fifo,
pipe, tty and device changes, and monitoring of processes and signals
kqueue is supported by all writable filesystems in NetBSD tree
(with exception of Coda) and all device drivers supporting poll(2)
based on work done by Jonathan Lemon for FreeBSD
initial NetBSD port done by Luke Mewburn and Jason Thorpe
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.
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.
incorrectly added as a union member which overlaid the keyboard
state structure. Fixed by moving the callout structure into to
keyboard state structure.
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
consinit().
- Fix fbconnect() and relatives; 'struct fbinfo' is initialized only once,
making sure no extraneous console resolution message is emitted.
- Make local-only function and variables static.
- Move function prototypes and extern variable declarations to
header files.
- Delete unused variables.
There's still a handful of extern declaraions that should be fixed up.
attempt results in the up and down arrows not repeating in the X server.
The keyboard division table is modified to place the Right-Shift keycode
into division 6 along with the Left-Shift and Control. A corresponding
change to the X server lk201 keyboard handler is also required.
* Do rcons output properly, using cn_tab->cn_dev which points
at rcons cdevsw entrypoints.
* The pmadx console code was using keyboard (serial) device
(major,minor) for raster consoles with special code in the keyboard
drivers to catch output intended for consoles, pull it off the device
queue, and print them via cnputc().
Ifdef out RCONS_BRAINDAMAGE.
* Other minor cleanup to pmax scc driver.
until a proper fix is available:
Perpetuate the 4.4bsd design even further. Change keyboard-driver
open routines to check for an active raster console. If active, set the
keyboard struct tty's t_winsize from the rcons t_winsize on first open.
See pr 4438 for remaining problems and discussion of a complete fix.
Where CACHED_TO_HYS() is still needed for kernel-virtual-to-physical
or physical-to-uncached mapping (fb drivers), replace with
`#include <mips/cpuregs.h>'.
