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.
* 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
glue
files for machines I know to have genuine PCI slots. As sent to tech-kern
for feedback in December 2003. Based on feedback, opencrypto is commented
out in the macppc GENERIC (due to absense of GENERIC_SOFTINT support),
and added to the sparc64 config (sys/arch/sparc64/conf/GENERIC32).
This is based upon Jason's work on xscale.
Most of the interrupt handling code is now written in C using an asm stub to
call into the C code.
spl* now only updates a software mask, and does not update the hardware,
this should be much faster.
The new code works well on cats, it's untested on netwinder, but should work.
The code implements generic soft interrupts.
More work is still required to bring the isa interrupt handling code upto
scratch currently all isa interrupts are handled at IPL_BIO on the footbridge.
This may cause isa interrupts to be handled later than they should be.
I plan to fix this in the near future.
joins other machdep files)
Saves maintaining multiple copies of the same thing, the only differences
were:
IRQ line used on the footbridge (made that a define in include/isa_machdep.h)
name of a dma_ranges variable contained arch name, so just made it generic.
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.
* Pull in dev/mii/files.mii from conf/files, rather than playing
the magic "files include order" dance in N machine-dependent
configuration definitions.
* Put the code that runs with the MMU off in a separate section (.start).
* Use a linker script to set the VMA/LMA appropriately for each section.
* Fix kernel page table allocation and mapping of kernel text/data/bss.
...and now that kernel images > 2MB work:
* Add SYMTAB_SPACE to the GENERIC kernel so that we have DDB symbols.
* Use dbsym to load the kernel's DDB symbol area.
