Note:
(1) Character device major number chages to 49 from 48(in my original
code). So it is necessary to rebuild device files.
(2) Must use Booter 2.0.0a10 or later.
(3) Default mode is cpu busy wait. It is defined by flags 0x1000.
It will be more slow than before.
No flags means hardware interrupt mode. But it might be able to
get no interrupts.

(1) Quadra 630 series
(2) PowerBook 150

- Add support for "setvar", which allows setting of arbitrary wsconsctl(8)
variables. Per email on tech-userlevel from Julio Merino <jmmv@hispabsd.org>
make -V FILES
from being useful (and given that every other variable can be
extracted using make -V, the behaviour was unusually inconsistent
given that the original reason for clearing it doesn't seem to be
relevant anymore)
- use <bsd.prog.mk> instead of directly including <bsd.files.mk>
(and possibly <bsd.man.mk> or <bsd.own.mk>)
- remove obsolete NOPROG
+ it was not discussed first
+ it is not consistent with the rest of the rc.d system. everything else:
- has defaults & example configuration in /etc/defaults/rc.conf
- uses lower-case variable names, including ipmon itself
Similar functionality added by the change I'm backing out may be
reintroduced in the future once it's been changed to meet our de-facto
rc.d standards, as opposed to something that appears to have been
lifted from a non-NetBSD source (HP/UX ?) ...
This was tested using a custom INSTALL kernel. The current one is >4Mb
which the cats firmware can't currently boot. We need to decide what
needs to be removed from INSTALL.
(${KERNEL_SUFFIXES}), put the list in a shell variable and use that.
Both bash (before 2.05a) and Solaris /usr/xpg4/bin/sh report a syntax
error otherwise.
This occurs before the first load_rc_config() so that it may be
overridden by the user, and appears in single quotes so the
variables don't get evaluated until the eval in run_rc_command().
Problem noted by Patrick Welche <prlw1@cam.ac.uk> in [bin/15912].
Replace $critical_filesystems with $critical_filesystems_remote .
The new names are now consistent with the type argument that
mount_critical_filesystems() is called with, and allows for other types to
be easily supported by that function.
For backwards compatibility purposes, if the now obsolete variable is defined
(even empty), it takes precedence over the new form, and you will be warned.
If you want to stop the warnings, update your rc.conf(5) settings!
NETWORKING, and SERVERS) by specifying that certain things should
come BEFORE a given barrier, rather than having the barrier REQUIRE
a service. This allows scripts to be removed without having to
edit the barrier dependencies.
As discussed on tech-userlevel, and approved by Luke.
make them "externally" available:
Previous Current Purpose
-------- ------- -------
_arg rc_arg Argument to command, after fast/force
processing performed (and prefix
removed)
_flags rc_flags Flags to start the default command
with. Defaults to ${name}_flags,
unless overridden by $flags from the
environment. This variable may be
changed by the precmd method.
_pid rc_pid PID of command (if appropriate).
_rc_run_fast rc_fast Not empty is "fast" was provided.
_rc_run_force rc_force Not empty is "force" was provided.
- Use rc_flags instead of _flags or ${name}_flags in various rc.d scripts,
so that $flags from the environment overrides ${name}_flags from rc.conf(5).
Fixes [bin/15800].
