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.
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
inspection or hardware simulation.
pmc(9) is meant to be a general interface. Initially, the Intel XScale
counters are the only ones supported.
be properly used by any misc. cloning device. While here, correct
a comment to indicate that "open" is the only entry point and that
everything else is handled with fileops.
NULL for root PCI busses. For busses behind a bridge, it points to
a persistent copy of the bridge's pcitag_t. This can be very useful
for machine-dependent PCI bus enumeration code.
* Implement a machine-dependent pci_enumerate_bus() for sparc64 which
uses OFW device nodes to enumerate the bus. When a PCI bus that is
behind a bridge is attached, pci_attach_hook() allocates a new PCI
chipset tag for the new bus and sets it's "curnode" to the OFW node
of the bridge. This is used as a starting point when enumerating
that bus. Root busses get the OFW node of the host bridge (psycho).
* Garbage-collect "ofpci" and "ofppb" from the sparc64 port.
* Pull in dev/mii/files.mii from conf/files, rather than playing
the magic "files include order" dance in N machine-dependent
configuration definitions.
become ippp (ISDN ppp) and irip (ISDN raw IP). The character device now
are called: /dev/isdn (isdnd <-> kernel communication), /dev/isdnctl (dialing
and other control), /dev/isdntrc* (tracing), /dev/isdnbchan* (raw B channel
access, i.e. for user land PPP) and /dev/isdntel* (telephone devices, i.e.
for answering machines).
Be consistant in the way that MSIZE, MCLSHIFT, MCLBYTES and NMBCLUSTERS
are defined.
Remove old VM constants from cesfic port.
Bump MSIZE to 256 on mipsco (the only one that wasn't already 256).
While we're here, enable RAIDframe (and RAID_AUTOCONFIG) by default for
architectures that I'm comfortable can deal with it being on by default.
Also: bump the number of 'raid' devices from 4 to 8, since 4 seems to
be insufficient in practise.
This will allow improvements to the pmaps so that they can more easily defer expensive operations, eg tlb/cache flush, til the last possible moment.
Currently this is a no-op on most platforms, so they should see no difference.

option for System V semaphores. It appears that there are no overrides
in the code and each file has the following added.
options SYSVSEM # System V semaphores
+#options SEMMNI=10 # number of semaphore identifiers
+#options SEMMNS=60 # number of semaphores in system
+#options SEMUME=10 # max number of undo entries per process
+#options SEMMNU=30 # number of undo structures in system
options SYSVSHM # System V shared memory
If anyone thinks that this is incorrect for any of these files, please
correct it.
Note - the i386 port was not forgotten. It was done separately.
