is declared at most once.
* Do option dependency across all def{opt,param, flag}.
* Make the default value of otherwise-unspecified defopt's be 1,
for consistency with non-defopt'ed options.
* Wrap an abstraction layer (macros) around tests for defopt, filesystem,
defparam, etc. to catch outdated defopt-vs-filesystem tests.
* machinery for nonfatal warnings.
* new backend config-file keywords:
defparam -- like defopt, but each defparam option is required
to have a value when configured via "options".
defflag -- like defopt, but defflag options may not have a value.
Also, on "option FOO", a needs-count style flag
(NFOO, either 0 or 1) is emitted to the .h file.
* Warn about old-style options that aren't defined via def{opt,param,flag}
and which are added to IDENT. (These behave subtly differently
to defopt options when no explicit value is given.)
Only things defined with this keyword will be allowed on "file-system"
lines in the kernel config files.
By default, -D... directives for file systems are not generated, since
they are not needed for most file systems now that vfs_conf.c is gone.
However, some file systems must have dependencies generated on them
(e.g. NFS, UNION). So, provide a way to specify an option file for
these file systems.
a change to the config grammar, to specify a device's class (i.e. DV_xxx)
like:
device sd class disk: ...
Also emit an ioconf.h, which contains extern declarations of the
cfdriver structures.
While I'm here, add support for specifying multiple options per defopt
line, as well as specifying the file name in which the options will
appear.
defopt foo bar baz
generates "opt_foo.h", "opt_bar.h", and "opt_baz.h"
defopt opt_mumble.h foo bar baz
generates "opt_mumble.h" which contains all three options.
Also, clean up and fix some bugs in the code that generates header files.
Syntax is like the `file' keyword; e.g.:
object arch/i386/i386/mumble.o [mumble] [needs-flag]
Largely from Michael Richardson in PR 3833, with some changes by me.
new swap system. The dump specification syntax is now more flexible,
and supports constructs like the following:
config netbsd root on ? type ? dumps on ?
- wildcarded root, fstype, and dump device
config netbsd root on ? type ffs dumps on sd0b
- wildcarded root, ffs root fs, always dump on sd0b
config netbsd root on de0 type nfs dumps on wd0b
- mount an nfs root using de0, and write kernel crash dumps
to wd0b
Also, garbage-collect some now unused code, now that swap configuration
is no longer handled by config(8).
reported in PR #3668 from maximum entropy <entropy@tanstaafl.bernstein.com>.
The problem: The unit number is not being conveyed to the configuration
crosscheck with root is a network interface; the device number is set
to NODEV, which sets up the (correct) defaults for swap/dump devices.
We can't change NODEV to a unit number, as the PR's patch suggests, as
this breaks the swap/dump defaults. Rewriting that code is not really
justified, since it's soon to be obsoleted.
The kludge: add an "nv_ifunit" member to struct nvlist, which convey's
a network interface's unit number to the crosscheck routine. It's not
pretty, but it's not terribly invasive, and can be garbage-collected
easily when the swap/dump goo is obsoleted.
. link to the list of locator names from each entry in cfdata[] (for
future use by programs to print out the device tree nicely and/or
for boot-time configuration tools)
be included in object dependencies. config(8) is told to generate
a header for a particular option with the new "defopt" keyword, used
in the files.* system description files. Options that are placed in
header files are not given -D... cpp flags.
This approach allows options to be turned into headers incrementally,
rather than all at once, and allows for non-header options, as well.
and the root device:
- New "file-system" keyword is used to configure file systems into
the kernel.
- New way of specifying root device, which allows root file system
type to always be specified. Examples:
config gennetbsd swap generic
config sdnetbsd root on sd0a swap on sd0b
config nfsnetbsd root on nfs
are replaced by:
config gennetbsd root on ? type ?
config sdnetbsd root on sd0a type ffs swap on sd0b
config nfsnetbsd root on ? type nfs
config lenetbsd root on le0 type nfs
Note that specific network interfaces may now be specified as
the root device.
- swapgeneric.c is no longer used; generate a swap*.c file for each
"config" line in the kernel configuration file.
