Unit. The AAU provides block fill, block copy, XOR, and XOR-parity-check
operations. We currently provide dmover(9) functions for "zero", "fill8",
and "copy".
Much of this code can be shared with the i80312 Companion I/O AAU, and
will be when support for the older chip is implemented.
clients to use a hardware-assisted data mover to clear a region of memory,
fill a region of memory with a specific value, copy a region of memory,
and perform simple boolean operations such as XOR on multiple regions
of memory.
Included here is a software back-end which can serve as an example of
how to write a back-end (and also provides a fall-back in case hardware
for a given function is not available), as well as a dmoverio(4) pseudo-
device which provides access to dmover(9) to userland via a message
passing interface.
dmover(9) is still a work-in-progress -- a few minor changes to the
interface are expected.
A new "arm32_dma_range" structure now describes a DMA window, with
a system address base, bus address base, and length. In addition to
providing info about which memory regions are legal for DMA, the new
structure provides address translation support, as well.
As before, if a tag does not list any ranges, then all addresses are
considered valid, and no DMA address translation is performed.
This allows us to remove a large chunk of code which was duplicated and
tweaked slightly (to do the address translation) from the stock ARM
bus_dma in the XScale IOP and ARM Integrator ports.
Test compiled on all ARM platforms, test booted on Intel IQ80321 and Shark.
getpwnam() to get the user's passwd entry but read it from the passwd file
yppasswdd will later update. This allows a NetBSD machine to be master NIS
server without requiring the NIS accounts to exist (via /etc/master.passwd,
nis or other ways) on the local machine.
