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.
the number of partitions is > OLDMAXPARTITIONS. This is better
than silently truncating the label (don't want to silently throw
away partitions when using an old disklabel binary on a label with
> 8 partitions). From Enami Tsugutomo.
it to determine the boot device: mvme68k, pc532, macppc, ofppc. Those
platforms should be changed to use device_register(). In the mean time,
those ports defined __BROKEN_DK_ESTABLISH.
Clean up the name space here a bit.
Add a `busname' element to struct ofprobe (now struct ofbus_attach_args), and
check against it.
Nuke `ofroot'.
Rename the `openfirm' attribute to `ofbus'.
- If the partition is already open, skip the open/close step. (Sync
with other disk drivers.)
- foosize()'s return value is in DEV_BSIZE units; adjust the size obtained
from the disklabel accordingly.
- Pass correct arguments to ofdopen() and ofdclose().
- Determine and remember if we are a floppy.
- Workaround for what is apparently a firmware bug - ignore the sector
size returned by the device. On my Firepower's floppy, block-size
is the same as max-transfer, which causes Lossage.
- Don't read the disklabel on a floppy; do what the ISA floppy driver
does, which is assign the entire disk to each "partition", although
we do not deal with the density stuff.
- FIREPOWERBUGS -> FIRMWORKSBUGS
- Some general cleanup.
