kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework
currently supported events include socket, file, directory, fifo,
pipe, tty and device changes, and monitoring of processes and signals
kqueue is supported by all writable filesystems in NetBSD tree
(with exception of Coda) and all device drivers supporting poll(2)
based on work done by Jonathan Lemon for FreeBSD
initial NetBSD port done by Luke Mewburn and Jason Thorpe
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
indicating an unhandled "command". ERESTART is -1, which can lead to
confusion. ERESTART has been moved to -3 and EPASSTHROUGH has been
placed at -4. No ioctl code should now return -1 anywhere. The
ioctl() system call is now properly restartable.
We're about 75% there. SCSI and HP-IB are not yet supported in a new
config kernel; some autoconfiguration hackery has to be done there, yet.
These changes are enough to network boot a diskless kernel.
New config glue is enabled with the "NEWCONFIG" kernel option. If that
option is not present, an old config kernel will be built. Any kernel
configured with config(8) will automatically pick up the NEWCONFIG
option from std.hp300.
outside of "internal i/o" space to not even have a chance at console-hood.
Fix tested by Thorsten Frueauf <frueauf@ira.uka.de>, and offered with
my sincerest apologies that the bug ever existed in the first place.
to a softc, rather than a unit number. Add a "dq_softc" member
to struct devqueue; this is a temporary measure until the
dma/controller/device callback spaghetti is untangled.
YAY! No more need for dcafastservice!
HIL: squish instances of "(void) splhil()" and "(void) spl0();".
This is a step towards getting the drivers ready for new config.
Clean up namespace, remove several instances of global arrays. Instead,
use a softc to carry state around. Where possible, pass a pointer to the
softc rather than a unit number.
* Reset the card on "fresh open" as a sanity measure.
* Use the "secret bit" to enable interrupts.
* Make some parts look/behave like their cousins in dev/isa/com.c
* Set the FIFO threshold based on line speed.
* Be a little more informative when port is attached.
* Implement TIOC{G,S}FLAGS; ttyflags now works.
First two items prevent deadlock on some systems (notably the 380,
425, and 433) which some people have been reporting. Use of the
"secret bit" seems to be safe on systems which don't need it. Changes
tested on a 319, 340, 345, and 380.
