tech-kern in messages with a Subject starting [Re:] /dev/sdN -> /dev/sdN[cd]
and in PR port-amd64/51216 :
Create bare (no letter suffix) device names (block & raw) that
refer to the raw device ('c' or 'd' partition as appropriate).
This commit was delayed waiting to see if there was to be any more
discussion - there wasn't a lot.
Caution: this is going to consume 2 more inodes per disc device
configured, everywhere that devices are configured using MAKEDEV
mode 664 and group ownership set to 'gpio'. This allows controlled access
to specifically enabled gpio pins to members of the gpio group. See
gpioctl(8), and, gpio(4) for details.
console while populating a memory disk, use %CONSOLE_CMAJOR% instead
of 0, and let MAKEDEV.awk substitute the appropriate machine-dependent
major number.
This fixes a bug that I introduced in revision 1.82 dated 2007-03-11.
to the controller. This is compatible with the linux and FreeBSD
implementations.
Add the needed conversion for mfi ioctls in COMPAT_LINUX
Allocate a character major number, and create /dev/mfi0 by default
on amd64 and i386.
This allows (along with a hand-created /emul/linux/proc/devices file)
to run the MegaCLI linux binary provided by LSI.
%stty_chr% and %sbpp_chr%.
Fix "MAKEDEV: bpp: unknown device" error on sparc{,64}, which is
observed in PR toolchain/45620 but not the fix.
Approved by releng.
a few where foo*) changes to foo|foo[0-9]*) or some other slightly
more complex pattern.
This should prevent "MAKEDEV foobar0" from accidentally matching
the foo* pattern when it should really give an error, and it
should make the order of the patterns less critical.

The commit includes:
- Flash layer, which gives a common API to access flash devices
- NAND controller subsystem for the flash layer
- An example OMAP driver which is used on BeagleBoard or alike ARM boards
NetBSD/emips port runs on Xilinx and Beecube FPGA systems and the
Giano system simulator.
eMIPS is a platform developed at Microsoft Research for researching
reconfigurable computing. eMIPS allows dynamic loading and scheduling
of application-specific circuits for the purpose of accelerating
computations based on the current workload.
NetBSD eMIPS support for NetBSD 4.x was written at Microsoft Research
by Alessandro Forin and Neil Pittman. Microsoft Corporation has
donated full copyright to The NetBSD Foundation.
Platform support for eMIPS is the first part of Microsoft's
contribution. The second part includes the hardware accelerator
framework and will be proposed on tech-kern soon.
Mortals do not need to be able to generate PCI Configuration Space
read transactions, which are not entirely without side effect, as
reported in PR#16300.
- Designed to be fully MP-safe and highly efficient.
- Tables/IP sets (hash or red-black tree) for high performance lookups.
- Stateful filtering and Network Address Port Translation (NAPT).
Framework for application level gateways (ALGs).
- Packet inspection engine called n-code processor - inspired by BPF -
supporting generic RISC-like and specific CISC-like instructions for
common patterns (e.g. IPv4 address matching). See npf_ncode(9) manual.
- Convenient userland utility npfctl(8) with npf.conf(8).
NOTE: This is not yet a fully capable alternative to PF or IPFilter.
Further work (support for binat/rdr, return-rst/return-icmp, common ALGs,
state saving/restoring, logging, etc) is in progress.
Thanks a lot to Matt Thomas for various useful comments and code review.
