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!
Add newer Intel / VIA i386 chipsets.
Correct one S3 chip, add one.
Mostly from Carl Shapiro <css@samsara.dialup.access.net> per PR kern/4169
and kern/4170 (identical).
- 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.
[1] add EN_ENIDMAFIX - the byte-aligner on the ENI version of the card
appears to lose under heavy load so avoid using it. see comment
in midway.c for full details.
note that the Adaptec version of the card works properly under
load.

[2] update some freebsd specific code [from kjc]
[3] for circular buffers: ensure there is always one free slot so
that we can easily tell the difference between a full and
empty list. re-structure a few loops to reflect this.
fixes a problem with mbufs being free'd while still in DMA,
and makes drive a bit more robust.

memory-mapped or i/o-mapped access to the device registers, and always
choose memory-mapped if it is enabled. In particular, do _not_ explictly
disable the space we decide to not use, as this confuses some versions
of Alpha console software (which are arguably buggy because of this
problem).
Also, fix a logic error pointed out by Ross Harvey <ross@teraflop.com>
that would cause memory-mapped access to never be enabled.
