by default, and can be enabled by adding the SOSEND_LOAN option to your
kernel config. The SOSEND_COUNTERS option can be used to provide some
instrumentation.
Use of this option, combined with an application that does large enough
writes, gets us zero-copy on the TCP and UDP transmit path.

management bits, and doesn't support older controllers, but that shouldn't
be hard to fix.

If is restricted to SIOP which implement the load/store instruction, and
has 10 scratch registers (basically, 825 and newer, possibly 770).
It implements a different interface between host and script, using a real
ring for command starts, and improved support for reconnect which will allow
256 tag per device. It uses interrupt on the fly to signal complete command,
which allows several commands to be serviced per interrupt and doesn't require
the script to stop to signal command completion.

B-channel and D-channel drivers separately) split the Fritz!PCI card

The new device is called "ifpci" and uses the same D-channel driver as the

Move the BRI registry from layer 2 (duh!) to layer 4, so active cards

using one word as both attribute and device doesn't work well,
radio.c is pulled in even with no such device in the configuration,
and the kernel doesn't link due to missing "radio_cd".
So call the attribute "radiodev" to avoid confusion.
podulebus Ethernet cards. This replaces the NE2000 memory-access routines

This code should perhaps be merged into ne2000.c, but presumably most NE2000
clones won't need it.
ports. This includes cleaning out DBG, cleaning up the `clean'
target, and tweaking the warnings flags (cesfic, amigappc, and the arm
ports are a little less warning resistant).
Oh, and let's `install' the kernel into ${DESTDIR} if someone says
`make install'. We have to think about cross-compilers here.

- minor whitespace & formatting cleanups
that empty values for TEXTADDR and DATAADDR (and ENTRYPOINT) will not
screw things up. Add support for SYSTEM_LD_TAIL_EXTRA which some

this is heavily based on the com and zs drivers.
if_ieee80211subr.c, which can be shared between any IEEE 802.11

However, most of current working IEEE 802.11b wireless LAN cards

for such cards.
IBSS creation is now supported for the awi driver.
- remove special treatment of pager_map mappings in pmaps. this is
required now, since I've removed the globals that expose the address range.
pager_map now uses pmap_kenter_pa() instead of pmap_enter(), so there's
no longer any need to special-case it.
- eliminate struct uvm_vnode by moving its fields into struct vnode.
- rewrite the pageout path. the pager is now responsible for handling the
high-level requests instead of only getting control after a bunch of work
has already been done on its behalf. this will allow us to UBCify LFS,
which needs tighter control over its pages than other filesystems do.
writing a page to disk no longer requires making it read-only, which
allows us to write wired pages without causing all kinds of havoc.
- use a new PG_PAGEOUT flag to indicate that a page should be freed
on behalf of the pagedaemon when it's unlocked. this flag is very similar
to PG_RELEASED, but unlike PG_RELEASED, PG_PAGEOUT can be cleared if the
pageout fails due to eg. an indirect-block buffer being locked.
this allows us to remove the "version" field from struct vm_page,
and together with shrinking "loan_count" from 32 bits to 16,
struct vm_page is now 4 bytes smaller.
- no longer use PG_RELEASED for swap-backed pages. if the page is busy
because it's being paged out, we can't release the swap slot to be
reallocated until that write is complete, but unlike with vnodes we
don't keep a count of in-progress writes so there's no good way to
know when the write is done. instead, when we need to free a busy
swap-backed page, just sleep until we can get it busy ourselves.
- implement a fast-path for extending writes which allows us to avoid
zeroing new pages. this substantially reduces cpu usage.
- encapsulate the data used by the genfs code in a struct genfs_node,
which must be the first element of the filesystem-specific vnode data
for filesystems which use genfs_{get,put}pages().
- eliminate many of the UVM pagerops, since they aren't needed anymore
now that the pager "put" operation is a higher-level operation.
- enhance the genfs code to allow NFS to use the genfs_{get,put}pages
instead of a modified copy.
- clean up struct vnode by removing all the fields that used to be used by
the vfs_cluster.c code (which we don't use anymore with UBC).
- remove kmem_object and mb_object since they were useless.
instead of allocating pages to these objects, we now just allocate
pages with no object. such pages are mapped in the kernel until they
are freed, so we can use the mapping to find the page to free it.
this allows us to remove splvm() protection in several places.
The sum of all these changes improves write throughput on my
decstation 5000/200 to within 1% of the rate of NetBSD 1.5
and reduces the elapsed time for "make release" of a NetBSD 1.5
source tree on my 128MB pc to 10% less than a 1.5 kernel took.
protocols, and lacking any timeouts, but it basically works, doing four-way

Oh, and Econet is Acorn's ancient, proprietary 500kbit/s networking
technology.
This also involved updating the in-kernel DES functions to correspond
to the versions in our in-tree OpenSSL, because the des_SPtrans table
has changed; the asm code will not work with the old permutation table!
C and i386 asm code for the DES, 3DES, and Blowfish CBC modes is also
included; it is not currently built as the ESP processing in esp_core.c
splits the CBC operation and the cipher transform apart. Hopefully that
will be fixed as there is a substantial performance improvement to be had
from doing so. It will remain necessary to use the C version of the
Blowfish CBC function on some i386 machines, however, as the asm version
uses bswapl, which ony 486 and later processors have. The DES CBC code
doesn't have this problem.
Finally, change esp_core.c to use the ecb3_encrypt function instead of
calling ecb_encrypt three times; this improves performance a bit, in
particular in the asm case.
guard pages. Can only debug one malloc type at a time, and nothing
larger than 1 page. But can be useful for debugging certain types
