- 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
for the registers, which was true, but actually the same as the driver
did without this option.
What it realy did is work around a stupid bug in the driver that did not
use the "offset" result from the pcmcia_mem_map call mapping the CIS memory.
We got away with this for a long time since on i386 and typical pcmcia
bridged the offset returned will be 0. It always failed (without
RAY_USE_AMEM=1) if the check for a different function CCR aliases in pcmcia.c
failed and mapped the CCR base new - this time at the CCR base of this
function (0xf00), so all register acceses (that had 0xf00 added) happened
way off in neverland.
Now we do not hardcode the CCR base to the register definitions, but
instead use the offset returned by pcmcia_mem_map. This makes the driver
work with and without CCR base aliases being found.
u_int8_t array to struct ieee80211_nwid to prepend length field.
The length field is necessary because IEEE 802.11 spec doesn't prohibit
even '\0' for SSID.
Though the name and the value of SIOC... macro is unchanged, this change
breaks binary compatibility. The only affected userland program on the
tree is ifconfig(8).
As Jason suggested on tech-net, it is better than live with problems
since there are no releases for this ioctls yet.
have _detach() functions:
Ensure that softc keeps state about whether the attach succeeded,
and make the detach function return immediately if the attach did
not complete.
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.
