Add screen types suitable for PAL displays, and fix typos
in older screen type names; reported by Gunther Nikl.
amidisplay.4:
Document the new screen types and add some misc information.
* introduce fsetown(), fgetown(), fownsignal() - this sets/retrieves/signals
the owner of descriptor, according to appropriate sematics
of TIOCSPGRP/FIOSETOWN/SIOCSPGRP/TIOCGPGRP/FIOGETOWN/SIOCGPGRP ioctl; use
these routines instead of custom code where appropriate
* make every place handling TIOCSPGRP/TIOCGPGRP handle also FIOSETOWN/FIOGETOWN
properly, and remove the translation of FIO[SG]OWN to TIOC[SG]PGRP
in sys_ioctl() & sys_fcntl()
* also remove the socket-specific hack in sys_ioctl()/sys_fcntl() and
pass the ioctls down to soo_ioctl() as any other ioctl
change discussed on tech-kern@
most polling.
2) Clean up some goofiness in pciide -- get rid of the whole "candisable" path
(it's gratuitous) and simplify the code by calling pciide_map_compat_intr(),
*_set_modes() and wdc_print_modes() from central locations.
3) Add a register writability and register ghost test to eliminate phantom
drives more quickly.
XXX scsipi mid layer spews out a few "generic HBA error"s during device probe (no slave device on bus), I don't know how to fix this
XXX This whole thing should die now that we have wdc_amiga
- disk_unbusy() gets a new parameter to tell the IO direction.
- struct disk_sysctl gets 4 new members for read/write bytes/transfers.
when processing hw.diskstats, add the read&write bytes/transfers for
the old combined stats to attempt to keep backwards compatibility.
unfortunately, due to multiple bugs, this will cause new kernels and old
vmstat/iostat/systat programs to fail. however, the next time this is
change it will not fail again.
this is just the kernel portion.
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.
