as sizeof(struct device) when amiga switched to new config, and recent
additions of callout structures and a long missing struct device to the
soft structure resulted in kernel panics when attempting to open the builtin
serial port. The callout structure initialization was clearing the serial
port softc data! Fixed by using sizeof(struct par_softc).
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.
that is priority is rasied. Add a new spllowersoftclock() to provide the
atomic drop-to-softclock semantics that the old splsoftclock() provided,
and update calls accordingly.
This fixes a problem with using the "rnd" pseudo-device from within
interrupt context to extract random data (e.g. from within the softnet
interrupt) where doing so would incorrectly unblock interrupts (causing
all sorts of lossage).
XXX 4 platforms do not have priority-raising capability: newsmips, sparc,
XXX sparc64, and VAX. This platforms still have this bug until their
XXX spl*() functions are fixed.
- Added support for multiple floppy drives
- CyberVision64:
- has now a real console mode
- another bugfix for boards with the new S3 chip
- Ariadne:
- fixed crashes with aeput (mbuf failure)
- split softc size and match/attach out from cfdriver into
a new struct cfattach.
- new "attach" directive for files.*. May specify the name of
the cfattach structure, so that devices may be easily attached
to parents with different autoconfiguration semantics.
amiga goes: config.new *and* /sys/scsi.
clock code coerced into a single .c file adding an accurate usec delay().
disklabel.c updated to DTRT, code to write RDB's to be added soon.
sbic (old scsi) converted over to new scsi and config this covers about
90% of users. Other drivers soon.
- realtime clock support for a2k and a3k
- scsi drivers for a2091 and gvp-II controllers in a2k
- working ethernet driver for a2065/ameristar lance-controllers
