in interrupt controllers in struct pic, and try to keep as much
common code as possible. At the lowest (asm) level, this is done
with CPP macros.
The main structure is now struct intrsource, describing an established
interrupt line, of any kind (soft/hard local apic/legacy apic/IO apic).
For quick masking, there may be a maximum of 32 sources per CPU.
Sources can be assigned to any CPU in the MP case, though currently they
all go to the boot CPU.
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
caveats, but works quite well in a lot of MP cases, and all
UP cases that I have tested. Parts of this will hopefully be
reworked in the not-too-distant future.
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.
npxprobe1(), set npxdna_func to new npxdna_empty(). This function just
returns 0 and thus fallbacks to a T_DNA trap (and math emulate, if present).

confusion. ERESTART has been moved to -3 and EPASSTHROUGH has been
placed at -4. No ioctl code should now return -1 anywhere. The
ioctl() system call is now properly restartable.
Raising math exception from fpu_save causes machine reboots.
Also, this fwait would cause incorrect results, as pending exceptions
are to be handled later after fxrstor.
configuration of devices logically attached to the ISA bus:
* Change the isa_attach_args to have arrays of io, mem, irq, drq
resources.
* Add a "pnpnames" and a linked list of "pnpcompatnames" to the
isa_attach_args. If either of these members are non-NULL,
direct configuration of the bus is being performed. Add an
ISA_DIRECT_CONFIG() macro to test for this.
* Drivers are not allowed to modify the isa_attach_args unless
direct configuration is not being performed and the probe fucntion
is returning success.
* Adapt device drivers -- currently, all driver probe routines return
"no match" if ISA_DIRECT_CONFIG() evaluates to true.
- If we detect SSE/SSE2 support in the CPU, enable SSE exceptions
and set i386_has_{sse,sse2} as appropriate.
- Expose i386_use_fxsave and i386_has_{sse,sse2} through sysctl
as machdep.{osfsxr,sse,sse2}.
using level triggered interrupts, which livelocks calling intr routine
if the data register is not read in the interrupt routine, as it's case
when polling after interrupts are enabled during boot.
Block all interrupts when polling for keypress, and modify intr routine
to read and store value from data register. The latter one is to avoid
losing a keypress when one would manage to press a key when kernel is
not in spl-guarded code section.
Tested with classic pccons, 'pcconskbd at pckbc' and 'pckbd at pckbc'
configurations, on i386.
when the system is "warm", i.e. interrupts are not blocked anymore.
This seems to be necessary on my PS/2 Model 70 keyboard - without this,
system ends up in endless loop calling the keyboard intr routine if a key
is pressed when polling. This _may_ be just specific to level-triggered
interrupts PS/2 MCA uses, though it's more likely it's just the way the
particular keyboard controller works.
