bootable GENERAL kernel for the 3 machines.
This is done by integrating the ARM7500 in a better way. In various places
the IOMD ID is checked and action is taken at runtime compared to
compiletime.
The small piece of assembler that is changed now uses the flag
`arm7500_ioc_found' that is set up by iomd.c at startup. When this chip
isnt found at startup it will skip reading the ARM7500 extended IRQ
registers and wont clear them either.
The next step will be getting the mode-definition files to the bootloader.
Currently they are compiled in.
There are still some minor oddities esp. at startup but after that it
functions OK.
The scrolling speed is increased *dramatically* and allmost even faster
compared to the old vidcconsole code; *NOT* tested yet on non-VRAM machines.
to do notably the mouse, some issues about 4 bpp modes and most of all Xwscons !
This code will still allow usage of the old vidcconsole complete with X etc.
Note that the wscons code can now only be booted with the new bootloader but
kernels compiled with vidcconsole can still be booted the old way.
<vm/pglist.h> -> <uvm/uvm_pglist.h>
<vm/vm_inherit.h> -> <uvm/uvm_inherit.h>
<vm/vm_kern.h> -> into <uvm/uvm_extern.h>
<vm/vm_object.h> -> nothing
<vm/vm_pager.h> -> into <uvm/uvm_pager.h>
also includes a bunch of <vm/vm_page.h> include removals (due to redudancy
with <vm/vm.h>), and a scattering of other similar headers.
"off_t" and the return value is a "paddr_t" to allow mappings
at offsets past 2^31 bytes. Somewhat inspired by FreeBSD, which
only changed the offset to a "vm_offset_t".
Includes updates for the i386, pc532 and sh3 mmmmap from Jason Thorpe.
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
This is an awk script to parse an Acorn Monitor Definition File and
generate a C file containing the selected mode timing parameters.
Read the comments at the start of the file for details on use.
This file replaces makemodes.c
- returned EOPNOTSUPP rather than -1.
- no check for negative offset.
many of these fix potential security problems in these drivers.
XXX XXX XXX
the d_mmap cdev routine should be changed to have a prototype like:
paddr_t (*d_mmap) __P((dev_t, off_t, int));
by someone!
