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?).
(derived from clock_subr.h). Keep clock_subr.h with the kernel structures
and functions to reduce diffs, and have clock.h only include standalone
constants and macros.
designated initializers.
I have not built every extant kernel so I have probably broken at
least one build; however I've also found and fixed some wrong
cdevsw/bdevsw entries so even if so I think we come out ahead.
#if NBPFILTER is no longer required in the client. This change
doesn't yet add support for loading bpf as a module, since drivers
can register before bpf is attached. However, callers of bpf can
now be modularized.
Dynamically loadable bpf could probably be done fairly easily with
coordination from the stub driver and the real driver by registering
attachments in the stub before the real driver is loaded and doing
a handoff. ... and I'm not going to ponder the depths of unload
here.
Tested with i386/MONOLITHIC, modified MONOLITHIC without bpf and rump.
struct timeval passed to todr_gettime(9) and todr_settime(9).
We no longer have an ancient and volatile struct timeval `time'
global since we have switched to MI timercounter(9) on all port.
XXX1: some of these RTC drivers still assume 32bit time_t
XXX2: some of these should be rewritten to use todr_[gs]ettime_ymdhms()
XXX3: todr(9) man page doesn't mention todr_[gs]ettime_ymdhms()
There are still about 1600 left, but they have ',' or /* ... */
in the actual variable definitions - which my awk script doesn't handle.
There are also many that need () -> (void).
(The script does handle misordered arguments.)
- Reduce available SPL levels for hardware devices to none, vm, sched, high.
- Acquire kernel_lock only for interrupts at IPL_VM.
- Implement threaded soft interrupts.
