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.
previously to note that they reference the RCS ID in "pcmciadevs".
Hence, committed versions which incorrectly pointed back to the RCS ID
of the "pcmciadevs" that existed prior to my addition. Corrected in this
commit.
already support under another name:
wi0 at pcmcia0 function 0: NETGEAR MA401RA Wireless PC, Card, ISL37300PEval-RevA
wi0: 802.11 address <whatever>

- centralize pcmcia function allocation and free'ing.
- free the cfe too, not just the pf in the multifunction card case.
- don't free pointers while walking the list, because free() will
fill the memory with deadbeef, thus killing list walking.
- implement SIMPLEQ_REMOVE(head, elm, type, field). whilst it's O(n),
this mirrors the functionality of SLIST_REMOVE() (the other
singly-linked list type) and FreeBSD's STAILQ_REMOVE()
- remove the unnecessary elm arg from SIMPLEQ_REMOVE_HEAD().
this mirrors the functionality of SLIST_REMOVE_HEAD() (the other
singly-linked list type) and FreeBSD's STAILQ_REMOVE_HEAD()
- remove notes about SIMPLEQ not supporting arbitrary element removal
- use SIMPLEQ_FOREACH() instead of home-grown for loops
- use SIMPLEQ_EMPTY() appropriately
- use SIMPLEQ_*() instead of accessing sqh_first,sqh_last,sqe_next directly
- reorder manual page; be consistent about how the types are listed
- other minor cleanups
The card is Type 1 CF card and it doesn't have firmware in.
So we need to download the firmware image into the card before
touching it.
XXX downloading code should be written in generic (bus independent),
but I don't have enough information for now.
into a strange failure mode if we do it with disabled interrupt. When
(re-)enabling interrupts reset transmitter and receiver and clear any
pending state.
for the same purpose (ignoring invalid interrupts).
For cards that are not able to stop all interrupts (or we don't know a way
to do that in software, at least) run the clearirq callback even when
ignoring an interrupt because we are not enabled. Otherwise the card would
stop interrupting.
Reserve a driver specific callout handle and an int value in the generic
isic_softc to allow card drivers to implement fancy blinkenlights.
controller - no matter if we are called from attach or not.
This makes my FreeCOM CD drive work at first attach (PR 13480).
Something is wrong with the detach code; it won't work on second attach
and will panic on second detach - but that has to wait until the kids
took care of some easter eggs.
