Deduplicate the code among ports and poll definitions of types
directly from a compiler.
This fixes miscompilation of certain programs that instruct compilers
to generate code for different types. This bug has been detected with
-fshort-wchar in EFI firmware.
Proposed and discussed on a mailing list (twice).
Itanium uses custom !ELF fallback switch, temporarily leave it as it is.
On ports without a GENERIC kernel config enable in individul files, e.g evbmips.
Omit on:
atari, dreamcast, emips, epoc32, evbppc/VIRTEX*, ia64, luna68x, mvme68k,
mvmeppc, playstation2, riscv, sun2, sun3, x68k, zaurus due to resource
constraints or port infancy.
- Every driver that was removed and whose number hasn't already been
reused is now listed with a commented-out "obsolete" line.
- The format of these has been systematized. Future format changes can
probably be safely done with a script.
- This does not include a few cases of assignments that only lasted a
couple days, or stuff from before major reorgs. Some of these may
be included nonetheless, because there was a lot of ground to cover
and therefore not a lot of time to dig into history in detail.
Note that the obsolete listings do not mean the major numbers can
never be reused; that's up to portmasters and/or core. It does mean
that they won't be reused by accident, however, which in some cases
(depending on the driver, how widely used it was, its family of device
nodes, their default permissions, etc.) can be quite dangerous.
Note that some of the things now explicitly listed as obsolete are
really ancient history. My scan went back as far as when the majors
files were added. (But not before that.)
This change:
* Removes "options PERFCTRS", the associated includes, and the associated
ifdefs. In doing so, it removes several XXXSMPs in the MI code, which is
good.
* Removes the PMC code of ARM XSCALE.
* Removes all the pmc.h files. They were all empty, except for ARM XSCALE.
* Reorders the x86 PMC code not to rely on the legacy pmc.h file. The
definitions are put in sysarch.h.
* Removes the kern/sys_pmc.c file, and along with it, the sys_pmc_control
and sys_pmc_get_info syscalls. They are marked as OBSOL in kern,
netbsd32 and rump.
* Removes the pmc_evid_t and pmc_ctr_t types.
* Removes all the associated man pages. The sets are marked as obsolete.
We now have 2 variables automatically set in elf_machdep.h:
ARCH_ELFSIZE: the size for userland binaries
KERN_ELFSIZE: the size for the kernel binaries
DB_ELFSIZE has been deleted and KERN_ELFSIZE should have always the
same values DB_ELFSIZE used to have.
In sys/exec_elf.h, if ELFSIZE is not set, it is set to KERN_ELFSIZE
for the kernel and ARCH_ELFSIZE for userland. These defaults should
eliminate the need for most manual ELFSIZE setting.
- new series of files that are useful for saying "i want everything
since netbsd 1.4", etc.
- use the fact COMPAT_* options have future dependancies to remove
many redundant options.
removes about 3000 lines total across kernel configuration files.
tested about 30 random kernels in the changed list.
lists only help to make them harder to read.
If those sections are found in inputs, they simply appear in outputs as
orphaned sections, sorted by section types and attributes.
config(1)/config(5) can't handle module dependency correctly at this
moment.
(This is another proof that shared file definition (`file xxx.c a|b')
is a bad idea.)
As Masao Uebayashi pointed to me, UFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART, LFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART
and UFS_EXTATTR_AUTOCREATE are not used anywhere in the code. Remove them
as they have been obsolete for a long time:
UFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART was replaced by mount -o extattr
LFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART was created to match obsolete UFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART
UFS_EXTATTR_AUTOCREATE was replaced by sysctl vfs.ffs.extattr_autocreate
This change just brings UFS1 extended attribute *support* in the kernel,
extended attributes are not enabled unless three conditions are met:
1) filesystem is UFS1 (newfs -O1)
2) .attribute/system and .attribute/user directories are created at fs root
3) filesystem is mounted with -o extattr
Some GENERIC kernels are obviously memory constrained, the extended
attributes options were not enabled for them, but just added commented out.
(kernel were considered memory constrained if QUOTA option was disabled)
it to all kernel configs that contain "options MODULAR". This
option turns on module autoloading by default (which is the current
default). This allows people who don't want module autoloading on
by default to disable it by simply removing/commentting this line.
There are quite a few configs that are missing some COMPAT_NN options
in ways that don't make sense; this should probably get cleaned up
too, but for the time being I've not added or removed anything.
WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL using the following rules:
- If WSEMUL_ is commented out, add commented out out WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL
- If INSTALL or obviously memory constrained, add WSDISPLAY_DEFAULTSCREENS=1
and commented out WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL
- Otherwise add WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL
Some of the INSTALL configs for larger memory machines are probably suitable
for adding WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL.
Now wsconscfg(8) should be able to switch VTs when expected.
Implemented after no objection from tech-kern to the following:

unwanted sideeffects in the RB_ASKNAME case. This fixes PR/46732.
No longer wrap MD cpu_rootconf(), as hp300 port stores reboot information
as a side effect. Instead call MI rootconf() from MD code which makes
rootconf() now a wrapper to setroot().
Adjust several MD routines to set the global booted_device,booted_partition
variables instead of passing partial information to setroot().
Make cpu_rootconf(9) describe the calling order.
- consistently use
#if NKSYMS || defined(MODULAR) || defined(DDB) || defined(KGDB)
to check kernel symbols otherwise build fails if none of them are defined

source file as the entropy-pool code itself. Move it to std. This
will be cleaned up more when I split the sources up as they should be.
This fixes build breaks on several ports. Thanks to Havard Eidnes for
pointing them out.

This is used by disk tools such as disklabel(8) to dynamically decide is
the undelyling platform uses a disklabel-in-mbr-partition or not
(instead of using a compile-time list of ports).
getlabelusesmbr() reads the sysctl kern.labelusesmbr, takes its value from the
machdep #define LABELUSESMBR.
For evbmips, make LABELUSESMBR 1 if the platform uses pmon
as bootloader, and 0 (the previous value) otherwise.
cetera, into <hpcsh/bus_util.h> for both hpcsh/bus_space.c and
dev/hd64461/hd64461pcmcia.c to use them.
(I haven't had a close look at what hd64461pcmcia.c is doing, but I have
a hunch that it is a good use for bus_space_tag_create(9).)
