To make this work, we now have to use separate handler lists for hardware
and software interrupts as the soft interrupt handlers do not return
an `interrupt handled' status.
Thanks to Matt Fredette for providing an initial set of patches on port-sparc.
- disk_unbusy() gets a new parameter to tell the IO direction.
- struct disk_sysctl gets 4 new members for read/write bytes/transfers.
when processing hw.diskstats, add the read&write bytes/transfers for
the old combined stats to attempt to keep backwards compatibility.
unfortunately, due to multiple bugs, this will cause new kernels and old
vmstat/iostat/systat programs to fail. however, the next time this is
change it will not fail again.
this is just the kernel portion.
kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework
currently supported events include socket, file, directory, fifo,
pipe, tty and device changes, and monitoring of processes and signals
kqueue is supported by all writable filesystems in NetBSD tree
(with exception of Coda) and all device drivers supporting poll(2)
based on work done by Jonathan Lemon for FreeBSD
initial NetBSD port done by Luke Mewburn and Jason Thorpe
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
* Use BUS_ADDR() where appropriate to encode I/O space and physical
address offset into a `bus_addr_t' value.
* Drop obio_bus_map() since it's now completely equivalent to bus_space_map()
* Use bus_space_map2() to map device space at a fixed virtual address.
* Remove the virtual address argument from sbus_sbus_addr()
the stack, and remove the no-longer-necessary PHOLD()/PRELE() calls
in fdformat().
(This eliminates 1/3 of the instances of PHOLD()/PRELE() in the kernel code.)
XXX We still have too many mostly-redundant floppy drivers.
it to determine the boot device: mvme68k, pc532, macppc, ofppc. Those
platforms should be changed to use device_register(). In the mean time,
those ports defined __BROKEN_DK_ESTABLISH.
where the floppy driver would wedge because a motor-on timeout would
be cancelled by another I/O operation cancelling a motor-off timeout.

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.
* Improve communication between the `hard' and `soft' interrupt handlers
to better distinguish various interrupt sources.
* Eliminate several race conditions where we would set a time out handler
only after starting the command on the hardware.
* Handle most timeouts by resetting the controller; there isn't much chance
of recovery in any other way. Currently, the exception is a timeout
on I/O, in which case we first try to pulse the controller's TC line
in order to abort the pseudo-dma sequence. Apparently, "normal"
conditions can induce such a timeout when there's no disk in the drive.
* Reduce the formatting gap parameter to 0x54.
* On the obio bus, interpret the `status' attribute.
* Minimize console diagnostic output if the errors we get appear to be
caused by the absence of a disk.
command (unlock for sd and cd) if no other partitions are open, return
EBUSY otherwise. DIOCEJECT will have the old semantic if its argument is not
0. The old ioctl has been renamed to ODIOCEJECT for binary compatibility.
