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.
* Pull in dev/mii/files.mii from conf/files, rather than playing
the magic "files include order" dance in N machine-dependent
configuration definitions.
not support a value (e.g., it's to be used as "options FOO" instead of
"options FOO=xxx"). options that take a value were converted to
defparam recently.
- minor whitespace & formatting cleanups
them define __HAVE_PCIIDE_MACHDEP_COMPAT_INTR_ESTABLISH
in pci_machdep.h and pciide_map_compat_intr() only calls
pciide_machdep_compat_intr_establish() if that preprocessor
define exists.
Ports that don't need to do this no longer need to supply a
dummy function.
so that the right entries get added to dev_name2blk[]. Needed for / on RAID.
(Missed these yesterday.. Thanks to Izumi Tsutsui for noticing, and for
letting me know :) )
