- to identify device instance, using hardware address.
- when console accesses device, using statically mapped address.
- when tty accesses device, using handler given by bus_space_map().
no need device ixpcom in evbarm/conf/files.evbarm move it to
arm/ixp12x0/files.ixp12x0
ixp12x0_com.c:
some fix around address handling
1. Do not call bus_space_map() in ixpcominit(). Calling bus_space_map()
is not safe here, because bus_space_map() calls uvm_km_valloc() but
uvm is not yet initialized.
2. Use dv_unit to determine console instead comparering iobase.
Now you can attach ixpcom0 with physical address like this:
ixpcom* at ixpsip? addr 0x90000000 size 0x4000
Statically mapped address (0xf0000000) is still usable.
ixp12x0_clk:
1. access PLL_CFG register via bus_space
2. Make the delay() working correctly. (bug fix)
3. Start the timer device without interrupt on attach time.
Now delay() called before cpu_initclocks() works fine.
ixp12x0_pci:
1.Mapping PCI type0/1 configuration space to the upper address.
2."PCI I/O Cycle Access" mapping to same virtual address(VA==PA)
but size of this mapping increase to 1MByte because fails
cause couldnt set L2 table.
3.use bus_space address handling in ixp12x0_pci.c.
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
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.
