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.
Move the trap/vector initialization for MPC6xx ports to mpc6xx_machdep.c
Also move softnet, install_extintr, mapiodev, kvtop. Add common BAT
initialization code.
Add user Altivec support.
Fix calls to OF_call_method in macppc/macppc/machdep.c.
Use ci_fpuproc in cpu_info instead of separate fpuproc.
Add separate syscall.c and defined __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN.
NULL for root PCI busses. For busses behind a bridge, it points to
a persistent copy of the bridge's pcitag_t. This can be very useful
for machine-dependent PCI bus enumeration code.
* Implement a machine-dependent pci_enumerate_bus() for sparc64 which
uses OFW device nodes to enumerate the bus. When a PCI bus that is
behind a bridge is attached, pci_attach_hook() allocates a new PCI
chipset tag for the new bus and sets it's "curnode" to the OFW node
of the bridge. This is used as a starting point when enumerating
that bus. Root busses get the OFW node of the host bridge (psycho).
* Garbage-collect "ofpci" and "ofppb" from the sparc64 port.
* Pull in dev/mii/files.mii from conf/files, rather than playing
the magic "files include order" dance in N machine-dependent
configuration definitions.
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.
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.
- minor whitespace & formatting cleanups
device drivers:
- Various native device entries in cdevsw/bdevsw.
- Rework the interrupt infrastructure to provide more flexibility to
the platform-dependent back-end. Rewrite the "ofwgen" simulated
interrupt routines to reflect the changes.
- Clear out the BAT registers and set the fixed battable entries before
calling the platform init routine. The platform init routine is allowed
to set entries in the battable.
- Don't call the platform cons_init routine until after translation is
enabled -- we might need translation to work in order to access bus
space.
