a few where foo*) changes to foo|foo[0-9]*) or some other slightly
more complex pattern.
This should prevent "MAKEDEV foobar0" from accidentally matching
the foo* pattern when it should really give an error, and it
should make the order of the patterns less critical.

The commit includes:
- Flash layer, which gives a common API to access flash devices
- NAND controller subsystem for the flash layer
- An example OMAP driver which is used on BeagleBoard or alike ARM boards
NetBSD/emips port runs on Xilinx and Beecube FPGA systems and the
Giano system simulator.
eMIPS is a platform developed at Microsoft Research for researching
reconfigurable computing. eMIPS allows dynamic loading and scheduling
of application-specific circuits for the purpose of accelerating
computations based on the current workload.
NetBSD eMIPS support for NetBSD 4.x was written at Microsoft Research
by Alessandro Forin and Neil Pittman. Microsoft Corporation has
donated full copyright to The NetBSD Foundation.
Platform support for eMIPS is the first part of Microsoft's
contribution. The second part includes the hardware accelerator
framework and will be proposed on tech-kern soon.
Mortals do not need to be able to generate PCI Configuration Space
read transactions, which are not entirely without side effect, as
reported in PR#16300.
- Designed to be fully MP-safe and highly efficient.
- Tables/IP sets (hash or red-black tree) for high performance lookups.
- Stateful filtering and Network Address Port Translation (NAPT).
Framework for application level gateways (ALGs).
- Packet inspection engine called n-code processor - inspired by BPF -
supporting generic RISC-like and specific CISC-like instructions for
common patterns (e.g. IPv4 address matching). See npf_ncode(9) manual.
- Convenient userland utility npfctl(8) with npf.conf(8).
NOTE: This is not yet a fully capable alternative to PF or IPFilter.
Further work (support for binat/rdr, return-rst/return-icmp, common ALGs,
state saving/restoring, logging, etc) is in progress.
Thanks a lot to Matt Thomas for various useful comments and code review.

It will replace azalia(4) after testing.
To use, comment out azalia in your kernel configuration and uncomment the
hdaudio and hdafg lines so it reads:
# Intel High Definition Audio
hdaudio* at pci? dev ? function ?
hdafg* at hdaudiobus?
You should also:
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV audio
output from mount(8) rather than df(1), because mount is more likely
to be available on install media. mount is invoked in a way that
always prints an error message, and the content of the error message
tells us whether fdesc is mounted. This should fix PR 40316 from
David Ross.
* Don't use negative variable names. Instead of nofdesc=false, use
fdesc_mounted=true.
* Add a comment explaining that MAKEDEV may be executed in an environment
that is missing some common commands.
MD MAKEDEV.conf. Not all ports have vcoda in their majors.foo files
and we shouldn't (re)assign major numbers on all ports before 5.0.
Should close PR port-sgimips/38962.
like "cmd: not found" are also redirected.
This should fix a problem reported by Chavdar Ivanov in which
the message "mtree: not found" appears during installation.
already-existing device nodes. This is done by invoking pax with its
current working directory set to an empty temporary directory.
* Add "-t mtree" command line option, to force MAKEDEV to use "mtree
-e -U" to create device nodes. Here are some timings from "MAKEDEV
${method} all" on an i386 system; each method was executed three
times, first in an empty directory, then twice in an already-populated
directory:
-m mknod
4.56 real 1.58 user 1.68 sys
2.96 real 1.37 user 1.48 sys
2.95 real 1.43 user 1.44 sys
-p pax
1.80 real 0.18 user 0.62 sys
2.35 real 0.25 user 0.80 sys
2.38 real 0.24 user 0.82 sys
-t mtree
1.62 real 0.22 user 0.44 sys
0.23 real 0.29 user 0.04 sys
0.24 real 0.28 user 0.05 sys
* If no command line options force a choice, then prefer mtree, pax, or
mknod, in that order of preference.
No objections in tech-userlevel to an earlier version of this change.
"retro" computers, but NetBSD also runs a growing number of rare
and retro add-on cards. With this patch, NetBSD supports the IDEC
Supervision/16, a black&white image capture board for the 16-bit
ISA bus. Approximate date of manufacture: 1991. Total instances
known to be in use throughout the world: one.
Coming soon; isvctl(8), the utility program for capturing 8-bit,
512x480 images at speeds of up to 6 frames per second.
This is so that md code that tries to call makedev altq or fd does not fail
when the file exists. This was reported in port-powerpc, when building /dev.
* Add a nooutput function to be used instead of redirecting to /dev/null,
because /dev/null might not exist early in the boot sequence. This
should fix a bug in which the pax autodetection failed when used from
init(8) with a read-only root file system without a /dev/null.
* Move most of the main program into a new makedev_main function,
to allow reuse by MAKEDEV.local.
In MAKEDEV.local:
* Use the new makedev_main function defined in MAKEDEV. This allows
MAKEDEV.local to support all the options understood by MAKEDEV, instead
of only a subset. This should fix a bug in which the setup() function
could try to use pax mode even though that was previously not supported.
In MAKEDEV.local man page:
* Update list of command line options.
* Don't explain all the options, just refer to MAKEDEV(8) man page.
* Remove BUGS section now that all MAKEDEV options are supported
by MAKEDEV.local.
Improve the documentation around that.
* The "-p pax", "-m mknod", and "-s" (mtree specfile) options should
always have been mutually exclusive. Now enforce that.
* The "-f" option didn't ever work with pax or mtree mode; document that,
and make it an error to try something that won't work.
* Make pax mode the default, if no other options prevent this, and if
"pax -w -M" appears to be usable.
* Add missing options to a usage message.
