Makes the whole concept useless. This is for default printouts. If you
can build a debug kernel, you know what version you have. This was under
the concept of 'RAS' so that hapless users could tell you microversion
things. But I guess this isn't the right way according to our local
Jesuits. Oh, well. I'll think up something different and hopefully
less objectionable. And yes, NetBSD isn't linux. The developers seem
to be equally bad tempered, but linux is more successful.
Part B:
Field interrupts in OS layer so that (in this OS) bus_dmamap_sync(POSTREAD)
can (formally) ensure that the result queue is stable wrt to buffering
and that for sending a command a bus_dmamap_sync(PREWRITE) is done to
ensure that the device gets a good view of what the mailbox contents
should be.
which contain 'standard' com- and lpt-type ports. Some of these present
as PCI simple-communications/serial or simple-communications/parallel
devices, but many do not. (Additionally, there is no document that I can
find that describes the "specific well-konwn register-level" description
of how the 'standard' devices' config space headers shold work.) Eventually,
some of the devices driven by this code should become simple pci attachments
for the 'lpt' and 'com' drivers, but that requires solid documentation.
the BAR-printing function to print a name for the register, factor out
a common register-bits function which can handle the fact that type 2
headers have a different size than is usual, and actually do something
useful with the rest of the bits in the type 2 header.
as with user-land programs, include files are installed by each directory
in the tree that has includes to install. (This allows more flexibility
as to what gets installed, makes 'partial installs' easier, and gives us
more options as to which machines' includes get installed at any given
time.) The old SYS_INCLUDES={symlinks,copies} behaviours are _both_
still supported, though at least one bug in the 'symlinks' case is
fixed by this change. Include files can't be build before installation,
so directories that have includes as targets (e.g. dev/pci) have to move
those targets into a different Makefile.
