malloc types into a structure, a pointer to which is passed around,
instead of an int constant. Allow the limit to be adjusted when the
malloc type is defined, or with a function call, as suggested by
Jonathan Stone.
- Add support for byte system bus mode. Based on patch in kern/17193 by
Christian Groessler, with some improvements by me.
- Rename sc_flags in mb86960_softc to sc_stat, rename "type" to sc_flags
to specify controller quirks and remove enum mb86960_type.
- Pass controller type via new sc_flags in mb86960_softc rather than
via an mb86960_attach() arg.
- Handle unaligned mbufs properly in mb86960_write_mbufs(). (from ne2000.c)
- Fix a signed/unsigned comparision warning.
- Add definitions of status bits in the RX packed header.
- Change types of some members in mb86960_softc.
- Move lm_readreg/lm_writereg into the front-ends. Add/use function pointers
in the softc.
- Add a bank select function pointer to the softc and provide a generic
version. WinBond chips accessed over serial bus present three addresses,
two of which are used to access bank 1/2 registers.
- Mark TSENS2/3 sensor data as invalid if the the corresponding bank select
fails.
XXX Now, could someone please explain to me why in the love of Bob a
file containing inline x86 assembler is in sys/dev/isa/????
This should be moved, fixed, or nuked from space.
- disk_unbusy() gets a new parameter to tell the IO direction.
- struct disk_sysctl gets 4 new members for read/write bytes/transfers.
when processing hw.diskstats, add the read&write bytes/transfers for
the old combined stats to attempt to keep backwards compatibility.
unfortunately, due to multiple bugs, this will cause new kernels and old
vmstat/iostat/systat programs to fail. however, the next time this is
change it will not fail again.
this is just the kernel portion.
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
- Split if_fmv.c into MI/MD part and add ISA-PnP attachment for FMV-183.
(XXX FMV-184 is not tested. It would require extra media-select functions..)
- Fix probe functions of fmv_isa so that FMV-181A/182A will also match.
Fixes port-i386/9476.
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.
