The following patch employs a smarter adaptive polling
scheme. It also improves the comments, in particular giving
due credit to Phil Budne for his efforts in nunderstanding
the device. It also relaxes the pattern for auto config so
more devices match.
pseudo-device rnd # /dev/random and in-kernel generator
in config files.
o Add declaration to all architectures.
o Clean up copyright message in rnd.c, rnd.h, and rndpool.c to include
that this code is derived in part from Ted Tyso's linux code.
- dereference a pointer to function explicitly.
- fold long line to fit columns < 80.
- put whitespaces around a binary operator.
- don't put a single statement into a block.
about actual position when reading tape position, you should flush any
pending writes. Well, if the tape is write protected, some drives don't
see the zero count WRITE FILE MARK command as a no-op and complain. Dumb!
- Indent with tab of width 8.
- Use four column to indent continuation line.
- Fold long line if possible.
- Use return (xx) instead of return xx.
- Compare pointer against NULL instead of testing like boolean.
- Delete whitespace at the end of line.
- Delete whitespace in front of function call operator.
- Delete whitespace after cast.
- Dereference a pointer to function explicitly.
- Add an empty line after local variable declaration.
- Use NULL instead of (char *)0.
- Dont use block for single statement.
The method for doing this is to try and use the DATA COMPRESSION mode page
first, followed by the DEVICE CONFIGURATION page (this is because most newer
tape devices are now using DATA COMPRESSION instead of DEVICE CONFIGURATION
pages).
Add in the logical && hardware read position and set position ioctls. Oddly
enough, because NetBSD is limited in having the driver track file && record
numbers, the usual agony over what to do once you use logical or hardware
block positioning can be avoided. Amusing.
Make a minor change so that for SCSIVERBOSE cases that SCSI_SILENT in
the xs' flags is still observed.
(currently only CD-ROM drives on i386). The sys/dev/scsipi system provides 2
busses to which devices can attach (scsibus and atapibus). This needed to
change some include files and structure names in the low level scsi drivers.
gup to the kernel) more detailed SCSI error printing, based off of final
SCSI-2 specification. This will also print out things like progress indicator
errors, and will also dump out additional sense bytes that haven't been decoded.
Also, turned the error message 'DELAYED' to 'DEFERRED' since that's more
accurate.
