This now provides slightly more functionality than the FreeBSD layer1-newbus
interface. It was meant to be a simple change to one header and a few
c files, but the change rippled all through various stuff.
To prevent a change to the kernel<->userland interface right now the kernel
is now lying about card types to userland (but who cares). This will be fixed
when the userland interface changes, after layer 3 <-> layer 4 has been
fixed.
Functional changes:
Provide a clean interface for hardware drivers to attach to the upper
layers. This will need another small change in the B-channel handling
when a similar change to the layer 3 <-> layer 4 interface happens.
Avoid passing indices into global arrays of pointers around, instead pass
the pointers itself. Don't code hardware driver types by predefined magic
numbers (think LKM). Prepare for detachable drivers (think pcmcia).
While there remove some sets of function pointers always pointing to the
same function (meant to be the configurable set of D channel protocol
handlers). It is unlikely another supported D-channel protocol will fit into
that (maximal layer interface) abstraction. When we get support for another
protocol, we will need to come up with a workable interface. Besides, the
old implementation was, uhm, strange.
remove all (legacy) "i4b_" prefixes outside of sys/netisdn.
Prefix all card specific driver support files with the basename
of the driver bus attachement file.
Renamed here:
isapnp_isic.c -> isic_isapnp.c
i4b_ctx_s0P.c -> isic_isapnp_ctx_s0P.c
i4b_drn_ngo.c -> isic_isapnp_drn_ngo.c
i4b_dynalink.c -> isic_isapnp_dynalink.c
i4b_elsa_qs1i.c -> isic_isapnp_elsa_qs1i.c
i4b_siemens_isurf.c -> isic_isapnp_siemens_isurf.c
i4b_sws.c -> isic_isapnp_sws.c
i4b_tel_s0P.c -> isic_isapnp_tel_s0P.c
This is the kernel part (userland to follow soon) of the latest (and
very probably last) release (version 0.96) of ISDN4BSD. ISDN4BSD has a
homepage at http://www.freebsd-support.de/i4b/.
It gives the user various ways to use the isdn connection: raw data (via
the i4brbch "raw b-channel" device), ppp (via the isp "isdn PPP" device),
voice/answering machine (the i4btel "telephone" device) and ip over isdn
(the ipr device, "IP over raw ISDN").
Supported are a bunch of common and older cards, more to be added soon
after some cleanup. Currently only the european E-DSS1 variant of the
ISDN D channel protocol is supported.
Reorganise the driver some what.
Rename tr_reset() to the more appropriate tr_stop().
Create a common tropic reset routine and use it in the frontends.
Move the code in tr_config() which is only used in the card attachment
routines into a new tr_attach() function.
Take adapter off the ring through tr_shutdown() in a shutdown hook.
This simplifies the bus-specific frontend.
