rcons_ttyinit() was never added to the pmax rasterconsole stuff. Output
to the display using /dev/console has not been working since then. Adding
the call to rcons_ttyinit() makes this work again.
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.
- Make local-only function and variables static.
- Move function prototypes and extern variable declarations to
header files.
- Delete unused variables.
There's still a handful of extern declaraions that should be fixed up.
that is priority is rasied. Add a new spllowersoftclock() to provide the
atomic drop-to-softclock semantics that the old splsoftclock() provided,
and update calls accordingly.
This fixes a problem with using the "rnd" pseudo-device from within
interrupt context to extract random data (e.g. from within the softnet
interrupt) where doing so would incorrectly unblock interrupts (causing
all sorts of lossage).
XXX 4 platforms do not have priority-raising capability: newsmips, sparc,
XXX sparc64, and VAX. This platforms still have this bug until their
XXX spl*() functions are fixed.
- returned EOPNOTSUPP rather than -1.
- no check for negative offset.
many of these fix potential security problems in these drivers.

the d_mmap cdev routine should be changed to have a prototype like:
paddr_t (*d_mmap) __P((dev_t, off_t, int));

* Do rcons output properly, using cn_tab->cn_dev which points
at rcons cdevsw entrypoints.
* The pmadx console code was using keyboard (serial) device
(major,minor) for raster consoles with special code in the keyboard
drivers to catch output intended for consoles, pull it off the device
queue, and print them via cnputc().
Ifdef out RCONS_BRAINDAMAGE.
* Other minor cleanup to pmax scc driver.
Where CACHED_TO_HYS() is still needed for kernel-virtual-to-physical
or physical-to-uncached mapping (fb drivers), replace with
`#include <mips/cpuregs.h>'.
with pk:
Use dev/rcons/files.rcons in the pmax config file.
Use "rasterconsole" as the tag in pmax/conf, and modify the pmax
framebuffer pseudo-device drivers (fb and rcons) to us rasterconsole.h and
RASTERCONSOLE for compile-time configuration of the rcons pseudo-device.
Modify the pmax rcons pseudo-device driver to initialize a little-endian,
QVSS-compatible font (set its ascent, and set the rconsole structure to
point to that font) before calling rcons_connect().
Tested on a cfb. The ascent may be wrong (or at least, not be aligned with
the hw cursor sprite) on a 3100.
old-style pmax polled input for cn_getc(). Needed because the
input side of rcons is not initialized in time for GENERIC kernels
to use it to read a root/swap devicename from /dev/console.
NetBSD/sparc rcons glass-tty console pseudo-device driver, via
the "fb" generic-framebuffer pseudo-device driver.
Individual framebuffer device drivers are now autoconfig glue,
and initialization code for a set of vdac/ramdac-level methods,
called "fbdriver", that's used by all the pmax device drivers.
All the handlers for user-level requests (open/ioctl/read/write/close)
are moved into the fb pseudo-device driver, which uses the
the "fbdriver" methods to work on any given pmax hardware driver.
Framebuffers supported are: sfb cfb mfb xcfb pm.
Move the qvss (pm) -style mmap()ed device interface, kernel tracking
of mouse button/movement events, and placing mouse/keyboard
events in an mmap()ed ring buffer, out of the framebuffer device
drivers and into separate source files. The fb pseudo-device driver
uses the qvss-compatible interface, since that's what the (R5) X
server uses.
