and amd64 where VESA VBE 2.0+ is available.
* Add helper library and stubs to invoke VBE bioscalls.
* Bump HEAP_START as we were already dangerously close to our limits.
* bootdataseg now allows access > 16MB so in the future we can scribble
on the framebuffer.
* Pass BTINFO_FRAMEBUFFER parameters to kernel when configured.
* VBE modes are configured with the new 'vesa' command. Usage, when present:
* vesa {enabled|disabled}
Enable / disable linear framebuffer, default mode is 640x480x8. May
be changed in the future to determine mode based on VBE/DDC where
available.
* vesa list
List modes supported by the firmware that meet the following criteria:
* linear framebuffer
* packed pixel or direct colour mode
* vesa {modenum|modestr}
Enable specific VBE mode. The mode can be specified either as a
VBE mode number (eg. 0x101) or as a string (eg. 800x600x16).
* New BTINFO_FRAMEBUFFER kernel parameter to pass screen configuration
* Early attach support for framebuffer console
* Pass BTINFO_FRAMEBUFFER parameters to genfb in device_register
* Provide hooks to genfb to set VGA DAC palette in 8bpp mode
IEEE 802.3 Annex 28B.3 specifies the following relative
priorities of the technologies supported by
802.3 Selector Field value:
1000BASE-T full duplex
1000BASE-T
100BASE-T2 full duplex
100BASE-TX full duplex
100BASE-T2
100BASE-T4
100BASE-TX
10BASE-T full duplex
10BAST-T
Our drivers give 100BASE-T4 a higher priority than
100BASE-TX full duplex.
Fix this. This patch is based on changes in FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

got no comments, no objections.
option MODULAR to using %MODULAR%. While it is now possible to only
request the new version in the affected Makefiles, it is made mandatory for
everybody because I just fixed a bug in config(1) that would not make it
fail in the case of a syntax error in the Makefile template.
bus driver's match function to return a higher confidence (so it can
beat out vga(4), for example). genfb needs-flag so md code can determine
if the genfb driver is present.
could cause a bad pointer dereference in the debug printing when
credentials with values of NOCRED or FSCRED were passed to kauth.
I don't see any way to set such a flag, I think its just a debug
thing that could be enabled at compile time by somebody who knew
how, hence the comment rather than a real fix.
generated by config(1) in the kernel compile directory no longer
contains IDENT=-DMODULAR. Instead, there's an opt_modular.h file that
might or might not contain "#define MODULAR 1".
Adapt to this by adding an OPT_MODULAR variable to relevant Makefiles,
set via an awk script that parses opt_modular.h.
wsmouse(4) can attach directly at arckbd(4) and I can dispose of the
ugly arcwsmouse(4) and arcwskbd(4) interpositions. Do that, and purge
them from the documentation as well.
