means we're in interrupt context. Since we can be called from a network
hardware interrupt, we could corrupt the protocol queues we try to drain
them at that time.
called when devices attach, take two.
Note that it is necessary that mbinit() NOT allocate memory, since it
is called before mb_map is created. This is not a problem with the
pool allocator that is now used for mbufs and mbuf clusters.
filemark 'coz you opened write only and didn't do anything else,
call st_check_eod to possibly write TWO furshlugginer filemarks.
Also- return any errors from writing filemarks out of stclose.
that they should make an ILP32 setup with an ILP32 compiler and an LP64
setup if run through an LP64 compiler. None of the data sizes actually
change right now, and any type errors that show up would have to be fixed
eventually anyway.
like a no-rewind device. Secondly figure out whether the initial TUR
for a CTRL_MODE open resulted in a tape being actually found (if so,
then do a mount session).
Move the 'sun compatibility' behaviour into stdone && stclose- don't
mark a tape as having been written in stopenm, fer gosh sakes.

Makes the whole concept useless. This is for default printouts. If you
can build a debug kernel, you know what version you have. This was under
the concept of 'RAS' so that hapless users could tell you microversion
things. But I guess this isn't the right way according to our local
Jesuits. Oh, well. I'll think up something different and hopefully
less objectionable. And yes, NetBSD isn't linux. The developers seem
to be equally bad tempered, but linux is more successful.
Part B:
Field interrupts in OS layer so that (in this OS) bus_dmamap_sync(POSTREAD)
can (formally) ensure that the result queue is stable wrt to buffering
and that for sending a command a bus_dmamap_sync(PREWRITE) is done to
ensure that the device gets a good view of what the mailbox contents
should be.
