for config_time.h) that contains, for example:
/* Sun Nov 17 05:37:51 2002 GMT */
#define CONFIG_TIME 1037511471
#define CONFIG_YEAR 2002
#define CONFIG_MONTH 11
#define CONFIG_DATE 17
#define CONFIG_HOUR 5
#define CONFIG_MINS 37
#define CONFIG_SECS 51
These values represent the current time as of when config was last
run, so that functions (eg, inittodr()) can use these values instead
of being updated once every year or so with the "current" time.
The associated modification to Makefile.kern.inc makes config_time.h
depend on this depend on this and the kernel Makefile, so that
granularity of kernel builds is not reduced.
XXX the dependencies for the kernel .ln files are just plain wrong. We
need some sort of extended make depend hack to do it right. We will
suffer with it for now.
kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework

Define an attribute for each crypto algorithm, and use that attribute
to select the files that implement the algorithm.
* Give the "wlan" attribute a dependency on the "arc4" attribute.
* Give the "cgd" pseudo-device the "des", "blowfish", "cast128", and
"rijndael" attributes.
* Use the new attribute-as-option-dependencies feature of config(8) to
give the IPSEC_ESP option dependencies on the "des", "blowfish", "cast128",
and "rijndael" attributes.

- Split if_fmv.c into MI/MD part and add ISA-PnP attachment for FMV-183.
(XXX FMV-184 is not tested. It would require extra media-select functions..)
- Fix probe functions of fmv_isa so that FMV-181A/182A will also match.
Fixes port-i386/9476.
- Eliminate wi_hostap.c since most of the code are duplicated with
net/if_ieee80211subr.c
- Station for Infrastructure network and IBSS also use service functions
as much as possible to be consistent with other wireless drivers.
Now WEP works for station/ibss/hostap.

Caveat emptor!
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.
from if_ieee80211subr.c, since "wi" devices implement the 802.11
protocol in firmware (for the most part). So, remove the wlan attribute,
which saves a fair bit of kernel text.
counters. These counters do not exist on all CPUs, but where they
do exist, can be used for counting events such as dcache misses that
would otherwise be difficult or impossible to instrument by code

pmc(9) is meant to be a general interface. Initially, the Intel XScale
counters are the only ones supported.

the block comment at the top of the file:
This module provides kernel support for testing network
throughput from the perspective of the kernel. It is
similar in spirit to the classic ttcp network benchmark
program, the main difference being that with kttcp, the
kernel is the source and sink of the data.
Testing like this is useful for a few reasons:
1. This allows us to know what kind of performance we can
expect from network applications that run in the kernel
space, such as the NFS server or the NFS client. These
applications don't have to move the data to/from userspace,
and so benchmark programs which run in userspace don't
give us an accurate model.
2. Since data received is just thrown away, the receiver
is very fast. This can provide better exercise for the
sender at the other end.
3. Since the NetBSD kernel currently uses a run-to-completion
scheduling model, kttcp provides a benchmark model where
preemption of the benchmark program is not an issue.
There is a companion "kttcp" user program which uses the kttcp
pseudo-device.

Makefiles. The main feature added by these targets is that they cover
ONLY the source files used for a given kernel and no other. Thus when
examining MD routines provided by all machines, you will see only

instrumentation.
Use of this option, combined with an application that does large enough

If is restricted to SIOP which implement the load/store instruction, and
has 10 scratch registers (basically, 825 and newer, possibly 770).
It implements a different interface between host and script, using a real
ring for command starts, and improved support for reconnect which will allow
256 tag per device. It uses interrupt on the fly to signal complete command,
which allows several commands to be serviced per interrupt and doesn't require
the script to stop to signal command completion.

using one word as both attribute and device doesn't work well,
radio.c is pulled in even with no such device in the configuration,

this is heavily based on the com and zs drivers.

IBSS creation is now supported for the awi driver.
- remove special treatment of pager_map mappings in pmaps. this is
required now, since I've removed the globals that expose the address range.
pager_map now uses pmap_kenter_pa() instead of pmap_enter(), so there's
no longer any need to special-case it.
- eliminate struct uvm_vnode by moving its fields into struct vnode.
- rewrite the pageout path. the pager is now responsible for handling the
high-level requests instead of only getting control after a bunch of work
has already been done on its behalf. this will allow us to UBCify LFS,
which needs tighter control over its pages than other filesystems do.
writing a page to disk no longer requires making it read-only, which
allows us to write wired pages without causing all kinds of havoc.
- use a new PG_PAGEOUT flag to indicate that a page should be freed
on behalf of the pagedaemon when it's unlocked. this flag is very similar
to PG_RELEASED, but unlike PG_RELEASED, PG_PAGEOUT can be cleared if the
pageout fails due to eg. an indirect-block buffer being locked.
this allows us to remove the "version" field from struct vm_page,
and together with shrinking "loan_count" from 32 bits to 16,
struct vm_page is now 4 bytes smaller.
- no longer use PG_RELEASED for swap-backed pages. if the page is busy
because it's being paged out, we can't release the swap slot to be
reallocated until that write is complete, but unlike with vnodes we
don't keep a count of in-progress writes so there's no good way to
know when the write is done. instead, when we need to free a busy
swap-backed page, just sleep until we can get it busy ourselves.
- implement a fast-path for extending writes which allows us to avoid
zeroing new pages. this substantially reduces cpu usage.
- encapsulate the data used by the genfs code in a struct genfs_node,
which must be the first element of the filesystem-specific vnode data
for filesystems which use genfs_{get,put}pages().
- eliminate many of the UVM pagerops, since they aren't needed anymore
now that the pager "put" operation is a higher-level operation.
- enhance the genfs code to allow NFS to use the genfs_{get,put}pages
instead of a modified copy.
- clean up struct vnode by removing all the fields that used to be used by
the vfs_cluster.c code (which we don't use anymore with UBC).
- remove kmem_object and mb_object since they were useless.
instead of allocating pages to these objects, we now just allocate
pages with no object. such pages are mapped in the kernel until they
are freed, so we can use the mapping to find the page to free it.
this allows us to remove splvm() protection in several places.
The sum of all these changes improves write throughput on my
decstation 5000/200 to within 1% of the rate of NetBSD 1.5
and reduces the elapsed time for "make release" of a NetBSD 1.5
source tree on my 128MB pc to 10% less than a 1.5 kernel took.

Oh, and Econet is Acorn's ancient, proprietary 500kbit/s networking

This also involved updating the in-kernel DES functions to correspond
to the versions in our in-tree OpenSSL, because the des_SPtrans table
has changed; the asm code will not work with the old permutation table!
C and i386 asm code for the DES, 3DES, and Blowfish CBC modes is also
included; it is not currently built as the ESP processing in esp_core.c
splits the CBC operation and the cipher transform apart. Hopefully that
will be fixed as there is a substantial performance improvement to be had
from doing so. It will remain necessary to use the C version of the
Blowfish CBC function on some i386 machines, however, as the asm version
uses bswapl, which ony 486 and later processors have. The DES CBC code
doesn't have this problem.
Finally, change esp_core.c to use the ecb3_encrypt function instead of
calling ecb_encrypt three times; this improves performance a bit, in
particular in the asm case.

for FreeBSD project. Besides huge speed boost compared with socketpair-based
pipes, this implementation also uses pagable kernel memory instead of mbufs.
Significant differences to FreeBSD version:
* uses uvm_loan() facility for direct write
* async/SIGIO handling correct also for sync writer, async reader
* limits settable via sysctl, amountpipekva and nbigpipes available via sysctl
* pipes are unidirectional - this is enforced on file descriptor level
for now only, the code would be updated to take advantage of it
eventually
* uses lockmgr(9)-based locks instead of home brew variant
* scatter-gather write is handled correctly for direct write case, data
is transferred by PIPE_DIRECT_CHUNK bytes maximum, to avoid running out of kva
All FreeBSD/NetBSD specific code is within appropriate #ifdef, in preparation
to feed changes back to FreeBSD tree.
This pipe implementation is optional for now, add 'options NEW_PIPE'
to your kernel config to use it.

IBM 4xx series CPU features:
- New pmap and revised trap handler.
- Support on-chip timers, PCI controller, UARTs
- Framework for on-chip ethernet and watchdog timer.
General PowerPC features:
- Add in-kernel PPC floating point emulation
- New in{,4}_cksum that is between 1.5 and 5 times faster than the
old version depending on CPU type.
General changes:
- Kernel support for generic dbsym-style symbols.
network interfaces. This works by pre-computing the pseudo-header
checksum and caching it, delaying the actual checksum to ip_output()
if the hardware cannot perform the sum for us. In-bound checksums
can either be fully-checked by hardware, or summed up for final
verification by software. This method was modeled after how this
is done in FreeBSD, although the code is significantly different in
most places.
We don't delay checksums for IPv6/TCP, but we do take advantage of the
cached pseudo-header checksum.
Note: hardware-assisted checksumming defaults to "off". It is
enabled with ifconfig(8). See the manual page for details.
Implement hardware-assisted checksumming on the DP83820 Gigabit Ethernet,
