o Introduce a new selection directive "select" to select an attribute (as a
module) and its dependencies.
o Support "no select" too.
o Stop abusing "options" to select an attribute.
o Bump config(1) version.
config(1) still keeps backward-compatibility; it is more permissive than
before. The tree, however, needs the updated config(1), mainly to strictly
define attribute ("module") ownership and dependencies.
The arcofi(4) is a driver for the HP "Audio1" device
(Siemens PSB 2160 "ARCOFI" phone quality audio chip)
found on the HP9000/425e and HP9000/{705,710,745,747} models
(but only hp300 attachment is ported for now).
The chip supports 8-bit mono 8kHz U-law, A-law and
16-bit mono slinear_be formats.
The old HP9000/425e playing tunes with this new arcofi(4) audio driver
was also demonstrated at Open Source Conference 2014 Shimane.
it to all kernel configs that contain "options MODULAR". This
option turns on module autoloading by default (which is the current
default). This allows people who don't want module autoloading on
by default to disable it by simply removing/commentting this line.
replaced by the make option COPY_SYMTAB set to any value. The copy of
the symbol table is no longer put into a buffer in kern_ksyms.o, but a
small helper object. This object is build first with a dummy size, then
the kernel is linked to compute the real dimension of the symbol table
buffer. After that, the helper object is rebuild and the kernel linked
again.
as found in several SoCs.
Only host mode is supported, good enough for umass (USB keys), kubd and ums,
and USB2 hubs.
It fails to properly talk to USB/serial adapters at this time.
- Replace ipintrq and ip6intrq with the pktqueue mechanism.
- Eliminate kernel-lock from ipintr() and ip6intr().
- Some preparation work to push softnet_lock out of ipintr().
Discussed on tech-net.
The four modules are apple_smc for the core functions, apple_smc_acpi
for attachment at acpi, and apple_smc_fan & apple_smc_temp for stuff
on the SMC.
Seems like there's a lot more bookkeeping necessary to maintain
children of an applesmc device implemented by loadable modules.
Maybe there's a better way I just haven't figured out yet.
Device interface derived by reading the Linux driver source code and
<http:///www.parhelia.ch/blog/statics/k3_keys.html> as of 2012-12-05.
Includes support for attaching fan and temperature sensors to sysmon.
No accelerometer yet.
Compile-tested only, based on some run-testing of experiments from
userland. Module attachment is not quite finished, so it won't work
yet.
friendly (there are only few hooks in the system). Make the structures
opaque and the interface more strict.
- Remove PFIL_HOOKS option by making pfil(9) mandatory.
rndsink(9):
- Simplify API.
- Simplify locking scheme.
- Add a man page.
- Avoid races in destruction.
- Avoid races in requesting entropy now and scheduling entropy later.
Periodic distribution of entropy to sinks reduces the need for the
last one, but this way we don't need to rely on periodic distribution
(e.g., in a future tickless NetBSD).
rndsinks_lock should probably eventually merge with the rndpool lock,
but we'll put that off for now.
cprng(9):
- Make struct cprng_strong opaque.
- Move rndpseudo.c parts that futz with cprng guts to subr_cprng.c.
- Fix kevent locking. (Is kevent locking documented anywhere?)
- Stub out rump cprng further until we can rumpify rndsink instead.
- Strip code to grovel through struct cprng_strong in fstat.
