- 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.
argument list. This allows easy 'submatching', which will eliminate a fair
bit of slightly tricky duplicated code from various busses. config_found()
is now a #define in sys/device.h, which invokes config_found_sm().
and the "kernel.tar.Z" distribution on louie.udel.edu, which is older than
xntp 3.4y or 3.5a, but contains newer kernel source fragments.
This commit adds support for a new kernel configuration option, NTP.
If NTP is selected, then the system clock should be run at "HZ", which
must be defined at compile time to be one value from:
60, 64, 100, 128, 256, 512, 1024.
Powers of 2 are ideal; 60 and 100 are supported but are marginally less
accurate.
If NTP is not configured, there should be no change in behavior relative
to pre-NTP kernels.
These changes have been tested extensively with xntpd 3.4y on a decstation;
almost identical kernel mods work on an i386. No pulse-per-second (PPS)
line discipline support is included, due to unavailability of hardware
to test it.
With this in-kernel PLL support for NetBSD, both xntp 3.4y and xntp
3.5a user-level code need minor changes. xntp's prototype for
syscall() is correct for FreeBSD, but not for NetBSD.
(1) do not cast it to (void *), and
(2) print it as 0x%x, rather than %p.
This is not perfect (because the data being printed is "int32_t"-sized), but
is more correct than printing it as a pointer because the data is _not_ a
pointer, it is data to be printed in hex, and on some systems, pointers are
wider than the data items being printed, which leads to excess and misleading
output. The only 'right' solution to this is to have a printf specifier
that prints the fixed-sized types the right way, and that's not really
practical.
* Change the argument names to vop_link so they actually make sense.
* Implement vop_link and vop_symlink for all file systems, so they do proper
cleanup.
* Require the file system to decide whether or not linking and unlinking of
directories is allowed, and disable it for all current file systems.
specific probe function did not specify it. It picks the same address
as mmap() does for a non-fixed map at address 0. See also the comment
around a similar line of code in vm/vm_mmap.c.
it's text or data; use the entry point instead (this solves some trouble
with ELF executables with strange permissions)
* Incorporate some fixes from r_friedl@informatik.uni-kl.de sent to
netbsd-bugs a while ago
- New metrics handling. Metrics are now kept in the new
`struct disk'. Busy time is now stored as a timeval, and
transfer count in bytes.
- Storage for disklabels is now dynamically allocated, so that
the size of the disk structure is not machine-dependent.
- Several new functions for attaching and detaching disks, and
handling metrics calculation.
Old-style instrumentation is still supported in drivers that did it before.
However, old-style instrumentation is being deprecated, and will go away
once the userland utilities are updated for the new framework.
For usage and architectural details, see the forthcoming disk(9) manual
page.
