a change to the config grammar, to specify a device's class (i.e. DV_xxx)
like:
device sd class disk: ...
Also emit an ioconf.h, which contains extern declarations of the
cfdriver structures.
While I'm here, add support for specifying multiple options per defopt
line, as well as specifying the file name in which the options will
appear.
defopt foo bar baz
generates "opt_foo.h", "opt_bar.h", and "opt_baz.h"
defopt opt_mumble.h foo bar baz
generates "opt_mumble.h" which contains all three options.
Also, clean up and fix some bugs in the code that generates header files.
. link to the list of locator names from each entry in cfdata[] (for
future use by programs to print out the device tree nicely and/or
for boot-time configuration tools)
on tech-kern. (See man page.) Implementation by Greg Hudson.
Also, remove special case for i386 in vector handling, although this code isn't
actually used any more.
- split softc size and match/attach out from cfdriver into
a new struct cfattach.
- new "attach" directive for files.*. May specify the name of
the cfattach structure, so that devices may be easily attached
to parents with different autoconfiguration semantics.
devices hanging off controllers, any kind of controller.
A device on isa0 is called at probe(self), then attach(self)
A controller on isa0 is called at probe(self), then all it's children with
defined unit numbers are initialized by calling attach(subdev); next all
subdevices with unit ? are initialized by calling attach(sundev).
Almost all device entry points is now like the vax/sun model (intr being
the weird one)
not identical to barsoom's patch, but I think it's an easier patch.
Check out compile/KERN/ioconf.c to see the effect. (On e kernel with wd and/or
fd of course)
