- more stat counters (rxmbufout -- mbufs, ttrash -- trashed RBD)
- add swsl_size to keep track of size of software slist
- revise when we call en_service
- fix handling of circular lists (was getting full vs empty confused in
extreem cases...)
- native mode atm: remove sbappend code: can't do it here since
socket buffer is protected only by splsoftnet and that doesn't
mask enintr off. forces us to switch to a two level interrupt
scheme. revise call to atm_input to reflect that.
- Good bye SYS_PBOOT and SYS_NBOOT, hello SYS_UBOOT (unified boot)
Currently supports booting from SCSI and HP-IB disk and network
from a single boot block. Infrastructure for booting from
HP-IB tape is there, but it doesn't quite work yet.
- Add a slightly modified version of Gordon Ross's "rawfs",
which provides a filesystem-like interface to tape devices.
Still needs debugging (see above).
- Rename sys_inst.c to inst.c, so that the LIF directory entry
turns out right (used to look like SYS_SYS_I if loaded from
tape).
- Add a "netio_ask" hint to netio.c, so that a special instnetio.o
doesn't have to be compiled for SYS_INST. Defaults to using
bootparams, but if set, will prompt user for information
usually obtained from bootparams.
- General cleanup.
in a more elegant way, but it works as is, and we need it now.
- Add a README and Makefile for the above. Note that this directory should
NOT be added to ../Makefile's SUBDIRS.
ports like the hp300 (or i386, or ...) will never get a chance to
build or install the manual page. For this reason, the page belongs in
the x68k machine-dependent list, not the "shared machine-dependent" pages.
somehow got lost between NetBSD and Linux. Output side mbuf-walking
code now correctly bytestuffs mbuf chains, as well as single mbufs
and clusters.
* Update radio error-parsing code to Stuart's latest stable code.
We now parse error messages the older code didn't.
* Note where radio-crash watchdogs should be added (the linux code
is there, #ifdef'ed out). This still just doesn't work.
The radio reset doesn't always work even when slattatch is first started,
but I have a radio with old firmware, which may be a contributing factor.
* Correct the checks for the tty output queue being overfull; estimate
the stuffed pkt size as (original * 65/64) + STRIP_HDRLEN + 2,
instead of SLIP's (2*SLMTU). Re-enable the disabled check now the
size estimate isn't excessively large.
* Fix BPF tapping of strip interfaces, STRIP packets are wrapped
in a SLIP bpf header. This implies no BPF support for arp or atalk,
even though Linux boxes are sending arp requests and gratuitous arps.
There may be no good fix short of adding explicit STRIP encapsulation
support to bpf/tcpdump.
* Still need a solid walkthrough, and rewrite to eliminate redundant
receive-side mbuf copying.
[1] if user tries to enter in a bogus PVC don't leave it in the routing

[2] change ioctl arg to include rxso for lower layer
[3] add hooks (inside "NATM" ifdef) for native mode atm sockets so that
they don't clash with IP PVCs. [i am still debugging the native

- ability to be either a BROADCAST or POINTTOPOINT interface.
- a humble beginning of link-layer addressing (differs from PR
by using a `struct sockaddr' instead of single byte).
- Use an extent map to manage the ISA memory "hole", much like
how i/o port space is manged with an extent map. Do the actual
accounting in bus_mem_{,un}map().
- When creating the ioport and iomem extent maps, pass the
EX_NOBLOB flag, which tells the extent map code to disallow
fragmenting of regions. This will make it easier to catch
simple i/o and memory mapping bugs (like the if_ed.c bug I just
fixed) in the future.
- In bus_mem_map(), a chunk of code was indented using spaces.
Make the indentation use tabs.
- In bus_io_unmap(), fix the format passed to printf().
This is used to implement the POSIX behavior when OPTIND=1
- Call setvarsafe instead of setvar. If one ran
"getopts optstr badvariable"
where badvariable contained an illegal variable name, there was no way
to recover, since setvar() would longjmp on the error.
physical memory is sized by a loop that writes data to the first
word in a page, (writes something else to settle the bus) and then reads
back the word it wrote. If the read succeeds, the amount of physical
memory is increased by one page.
This fails on a 5000/1xx with a memory subsystem filled with 8 low-density
(4Mbyte) SIMMs. The memory-decoding hardware aliases the 32Mbytes of
physical memory at physical addresses 0, and at 32M (and presumably
at 64 and 96Mbytes.) The contiguous aliasing causes the memory-sizing
loop to continue at 32 MBytes, testing the memory that's really
at address 0, overwriting and crashing the kernel.
Fixed (for 1.2) by reading the SIMM-decoder stride size from the
motherboard, and reducing the loop bound to 32Mbytes on a 5000/1xx
with low-density SIMMs. (Other models have a non-power-of-2 maximum
memory and so are not subject to _contigous_ aliasing of physical memory).
never forwarded to me :-(.

This takes care of two related problems:
- `umount -f' wouldn't work if someone's working directory is
the filesystem root.
- vfs_unmountall() would complain about a busy `/' on a
diskless setup.
The physical memory-sizer claims to preserve memory contents
(specifically the contents of msgbuf). The loop writes different
values into two adjacent locations and reads the contents of the
first, to ensure that whatever is read back from the first location is
from memory and isn't just the first write persisting on the bus.
The loop preserved the value of the first location, but not the second,
resulting in the second test value ('ZZZZ') over-writing a word in msgbuf.
