Patch by Slava Semushin <slava.semushin@gmail.com>
Again, this was tested by comparing obj files from a pristine and a patched
source tree against an i386/ALL kernel, and also for src/sbin/fsck_ffs,
src/sbin/fsdb and src/usr.sbin/makefs. Only changes in assert() line numbers
were detected in 'objdump -d' output.
- Replace references to linesw[0] with a ttyldisc_default() function
that returns the default ("termios") line discipline.
- The linesw[] array is gone, replaced by a linked list.
- ttyldisc_add() and ttyldisc_remove() have been replaced by
ttyldisc_attach() and ttyldisc_detach().
- Things that provide line disciplines are now responsible for
registering those disciplines with the system. The linesw
structures are no longer declared in tty_conf.c
- Line disciplines are now refcounted; a lookup causes a reference to
be held. ttyldisc_release() releases the reference. Attempts to
detach an in-use line discipline result in EBUSY.
- Fix function signature lossage in if_sl.c, if_strip.c, and tty_tb.c
that was masked by the old tty_conf.c
- tty_init() is no longer necessary; delete it and its call from main().
layers. Common middle layer shared by kbd_zs and sunkbd is moved into
the new file. Move shared config directives to files.sun and adjust
ports' files.* accordingly.
Need this to support console/Xsun on Mr.Coffee JavaStation.
Tested on sparc, sparc64 (by martin) and sun3 (by jdc).
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.
