to remove the frobbing that drivers must do in the hci_unit structure.
- driver provides a static const interface descriptor
- hci_unit is allocated by hci_attach() rather than part of softc
- statistics are compiled by driver and provided on request
- driver provides output methods and is responsible for output queue
- stack provides input methods and is responsible for input queue
- mutex is used to arbitrate device queue access
active development and its ABI (and possibly API) may change between
NetBSD versions.
This is critical to, for example, LKMs, where there might be a case of them
being built using one version of the ABI and used on system with another.
The main concern for "ABI" here is the set of KAUTH_* actions and requests
that is (for now) an enum. This note is likely to be removed as kauth(9)
is stablized -- hopefully before NetBSD 5.0.

While it's true that it's part of the traditional 4.4BSD security model,
there may come a time where a different "primary" security model used for
fine-grained privileges (ie., splitting root's responsibilities to various
privileges that can be assigned) may want to still have a securelevel
setting.
Idea from Daniel Carosone:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-security/2006/08/25/0001.html
The location of the removed files, for reference, was:
src/secmodel/bsd44/secmodel_bsd44_securelevel.c
src/secmodel/bsd44/securelevel.h
will be extended to other appropriate ports in future. Note as such in the
bugs section.
This is an MI man page, so should not be flagged as i386 in the header.
This allows easy configuration of banner text, console device and timeout
as well as allowing menus of commands to be displayed. If /boot.cfg
is not present, then the existing behaviour does not change.
The sections in the boot loader source are surrounded by #ifdef SMALL
allowing this functionality to be removed if space is at a premium.

sysmon_envsys_create() and sysmon_envsys_destroy() were added to
create/destroy sysmon_envsys objects (and its TAILQ/LIST for sensors/events).
sysmon_envsys_sensor_attach() and sysmon_envsys_sensor_detach() were
added to attach/detach sensors to a specified sysmon_envsys device.
The events framework is now per device and configurable via the
ENVSYS_SETDICTIONARY ioctl or /etc/envsys.conf and envstat(8).
Update all users and documentation to reflect these changes.
- The driver now uses the Super I/O address port as port argument in
the configuration file. The Environmental Controller base address is
fetched by the Super I/O EC LDN configuration registers.
- Invalidate voltage sensors if data returned is 0xff.
- Use the Super I/O Global Configuration Registers Chip ID[12] and Device
Revision to store/print the correct information.
- Use only the Fan Extended Tachometer registers on IT871[68]F for now;
this gives us correct data for IT8705/IT8712F again.
Inspired by the smsc(4) driver. The UPDATING file has been updated to
reflect the rename.
Modify the afterboot(8) manual page to explain how to run the tests
installed alongside the system. This is something the user should do
after configuring it to ensure that it works and that it is stable on
his hardware.
This adds a new tests.tgz set to releases which includes all the tests
for the system. It is important to note that this set does not rely on
comp.tgz: a user of the system can run the tests without having the
development tools installed, which can be useful in a production machine.
This adds reachover Makefiles to build the libatf library and enables it in
the parent Makefile.
Things to review in this change:
* Add proper version numbers in the shlib_version files.
* Is libatf properly listed in lib/Makefile? It theoretically needs
libstdc++, but the resulting binary library is not linked against it.
the code. This provides 14 voltage sensors in addition to the previous
3 temperature sensors supported in the TMS logical device.
