It slightly improves performance on NWS-1750D (MC68030 25MHz):

MI m68k/pmap_motorola.c and other sources can handle both 4KB/8KB pages
(amiga and atari have used 8KB pages for many years) and there is
no binary compatibility issue on it.
(kernel modules might be affected but 5.99.29 was just two days ago)
As mentioned in src/sys/rump/dev/lib/libdisk/Makefile,
rump(4) builds don't check if each ${MACHINE} actually supports
MBR in MD readdisklabel(9) ops while it pulls MD <machine/disklabel.h>.
Workarounds so long broken build of ews4800mips.
- device_t-ify
- sanitize debugging #ifdefs
- deal with firmwares setting up modes using other clocks than #0
- get rid of sparc and macppc-specific code, use device properties instead
- while there, use alternate box drawing font if needed
into an alternate font pointed at by the recently added mappings in wsfont,
adapt all putchar() methods except the rotated ones to use them
XXX no attempt has been made to make this work with rotation
- use bootstr passed via reboot(2) with RB_STRING for the next kernel path
- prepare independent opt_kloader_kernel_path.h for KLOADER_KERNEL_PATH
- some cosmetics to reduce diffs from hpcmips
Tested on HPW-50PA (Hitachi PERSONA).
success even though no CTF section was present in the kernel or module.
This fixes the panic that several people saw when trying out the FBT
provider without updating /boot or missing a CTF section in /netbsd.
While here, rename one of the bus_space_handle_ts
to be be descriptive of its function.
Fixes crash caused by uninitialized bus_space_tag_t
discovered by Paul Goyette.
Detect Synology SATAlink device (although still unused).
New skg driver for Marvell SKnet Yukon-lite based GbE, used on most DS boards.
As there is no documentation available, it was based on if_sk.c, with lots
of testing. Known problem: The MAC address on my DS-101g+ is always read
as 00:11:22:33:44:54, but sk(4) unfortunately has the same problem.
New allocaligned() function to replace non-working ALLOC() macros.
pointed out by martin, configurations like builtin nfsserver can
be succesfully linked without including all dependencies (specifically,
nfs). Until all such weirdosities are fixed, opt for at least a
semifunctional system.
things: passing an argument to check_exec, which is better done explicitly,
and handing back the resolved pathname generated by namei, which we can
make an explicit slot for in struct exec_package instead. While here,
perform some related tidyup, and store the kernel-side copy of the path
to the executable as well as the pointer into userspace. (But the latter
should probably be removed in the future.)
Remove superfluous call to bpf_detach.
Add comments regarding porting issues and add a couple of cosmetic changes
that reduce the diffs to the OpenBSD version. From Sverre Froyen
