numbers passed in instead of using a BEGIN construct. nawk didn't like
the hex escapes used there.
Fixes a problem reported by Shin'ichiro TAYA on port-powerpc.
Use "int(NUMBER)%256" instead of just "NUMBER" in the printf "%c"
statements in the awk script. nawk was appearing to refuse outputing
a 0 byte of the low eight bits of the number were 0 but any higher
bits were set.
walnut-mkimg.sh tested using gawk, nawk and mawk.
drivers that attach to it. This allows for other host interface chips
that use the same keyboards and mice, such as the ones in the ARM
IOMD20, ARM7500, and SA-1111. The PC-compatible driver is still
called pckbc(4), and the new abstraction layer is "pckbport", so the
child devices have moved from sys/dev/pckbc to sys/dev/pckbport, which
also contains some code shared between all host controllers. To avoid
incompatibility, pckbdreg.h is still installed in
/usr/include/dev/pckbc.
In theory, this shouldn't cause any behavioural changes in the drivers
concerned. Thy just use rather more function pointers than before. Tested
on i386 and (with a new host driver) acorn32. Compiled on several other
affected architectures.
to only call pckbc_machdep_cnattach() if this is present. This allows
pckbc_machdep_cnattach() to be omitted entirely on most ports, where it only
returns ENXIO anyway.
The devices with this attribute at the moment are pc(4) on i386 and bebox, and
pckbc on sparc, where pckbc_machdep_cnattach() mysteriously returns 0 rather
than ENXIO.
* lpt device is defined in MI place (dev/ppbus/files.ppbus), dev/ic/lpt.c
is included there too; dev/ic/lpt.c is not included if ppbus is
configured or if there is alternative platform lpt (like for pc532)
* g/c MD lpt definitions and custom puc/upc attachments,
glue moved to conf/files and dev/pci/files.pci respectively; remove
device lpt definition from dev/isa/files.isa
* add ppbus parport attribute, atppc device attachments, adjust plip and lpt

virtual memory reservation and a private pool of memory pages -- by a scheme
based on memory pools.
This allows better utilization of memory because buffers can now be allocated
with a granularity finer than the system's native page size (useful for
filesystems with e.g. 1k or 2k fragment sizes). It also avoids fragmentation
of virtual to physical memory mappings (due to the former fixed virtual
address reservation) resulting in better utilization of MMU resources on some
platforms. Finally, the scheme is more flexible by allowing run-time decisions
on the amount of memory to be used for buffers.
On the other hand, the effectiveness of the LRU queue for buffer recycling
may be somewhat reduced compared to the traditional method since, due to the
nature of the pool based memory allocation, the actual least recently used
buffer may release its memory to a pool different from the one needed by a
newly allocated buffer. However, this effect will kick in only if the
system is under memory pressure.
Use <powerpc/oea/bat.h> exclusively and remove <machine/bat.h> and
<powerpc/bat.h>. Remove unneeded <machine/cpufunc.h>. To insure
1:1 correspondence of <powerpc/FOO.h> to <machine/FOO.h> include
"../../powerpc/include/Makefile" in "arch/FOO/include/Makefile".
Incororpate <byte_swap.h> into <bswap.h> and then byte_swap.h
which is automatically included during kernel config, and add comments
to individual machine-dependant majors.* files to assign new MI majors
in MI file.
Range 0-191 is reserved for machine-specific assignments, range
192+ are MI assignments.
