(currently only CD-ROM drives on i386). The sys/dev/scsipi system provides 2
busses to which devices can attach (scsibus and atapibus). This needed to
change some include files and structure names in the low level scsi drivers.
(soon to be documented on mailing lists; eventually in section 9 manual
pages), most importantly:
(1) support interrupt pin swizzling on non-i386 systems with
PCI-PCI bridges (per PPB spec; done, but meaningless, on i386).
(2) provide pci_{io,mem}_find(), to determine what I/O or memory
space is described by a given PCI configuration space
mapping register.
(3) provide pci_intr_map(), pci_intr_string(), and
pci_intr_{,dis}establish() to manipulate and print info about
PCI interrupts.
(4) deprecate the pci_map_* functions, and provide them only
as compatibility interfaces (in pci_compat.c) which will
eventually go away, implemented as wrappers around
the functions described above.
(5) make pci functions take as an argument a machine-dependent
cookie, to allow more flexibility in implementation.
- 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.
which represents the "keyboard controller". Give "pc" and "vt" drivers
the "pckbd" attribute. In pcattach() (pccons and pcvt), attach children
of the keyboard controller.
now has a single device tree (rather than a forest). Also, attach
EISA only if it's present, and attach in order: PCI, EISA, ISA (most
specific to least specific).
Map kernel stacks only at unique addresses.
Use one TSS per process.
Add sysarch calls for modifying IOPL and the I/O permission bitmap.
Add a compacting GDT entry allocator, for TSS and LDT selectors.
Enable modifying %fs and %gs with PT_SETREGS.
Sanitize various bits of code.
