kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework
currently supported events include socket, file, directory, fifo,
pipe, tty and device changes, and monitoring of processes and signals
kqueue is supported by all writable filesystems in NetBSD tree
(with exception of Coda) and all device drivers supporting poll(2)
based on work done by Jonathan Lemon for FreeBSD
initial NetBSD port done by Luke Mewburn and Jason Thorpe
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.
adding "alpha_" / "ALPHA_" prefix to items as appropriate. Rename
CHECKSUM_BOOT_BLOCK() -> ALPHA_BOOT_BLOCK_CKSUM(). Add cgd's copyright
from disklabel.h.
- Clean up a couple of comments.
indicating an unhandled "command". ERESTART is -1, which can lead to
confusion. ERESTART has been moved to -3 and EPASSTHROUGH has been
placed at -4. No ioctl code should now return -1 anywhere. The
ioctl() system call is now properly restartable.
saves about 2.2MB under /usr/include/dev/. Discussed on tech-kern@
recently.
I HOPE to get the list right. The headers I left in are ones
used for MI tools and those whose usage I discovered by grep over tree sources.
Feel free to put needed includes back in if you encounter anything which
should not be removed from lists.
- Wsmouse_input() get new argument 'flag', which indicates whether x/y/z are
relative or absolute.
- Wsmouse get new io controls, WSMOUSEIO_SCALIBCOORDS and
WSMOUSEIO_GCALIBCOORDS.
(done by directly setting zilog chip control bits -- there should be
a zs_set_frame() or so in z8530sc.c)
fixes PR port-alpha/8423 by Konrad Schroder <perseant@hhhh.org>
This is done on a physical page size basis, instead of virtual (as the
(on vax yet non-existing) bus_* routines does). This is similar to the
way uba allocation is done.
made a whole bunch of annoying bugs disappear; mostly depending on
bad use of NBPG in non-MD code. The VAX port was the only port that
used this historical "feature".
The CL* macros should probably go away totally, there is no reason
at all to keep them.
very slightly modified form for wscons support on the TC alpha.
XXX This could use some more work, but this code should be sharable
among the alpha and pmax systems as-is.
"keypad-delete". (This is not completely clean; for me these keys make
up perhaps a "function field", but no "keypad".)
This is the mapping expected by applications.
Proposed by Chris Jones via PR kern/6089 and Dave Sainty.
as with user-land programs, include files are installed by each directory
in the tree that has includes to install. (This allows more flexibility
as to what gets installed, makes 'partial installs' easier, and gives us
more options as to which machines' includes get installed at any given
time.) The old SYS_INCLUDES={symlinks,copies} behaviours are _both_
still supported, though at least one bug in the 'symlinks' case is
fixed by this change. Include files can't be build before installation,
so directories that have includes as targets (e.g. dev/pci) have to move
those targets into a different Makefile.
into sys/dev/dec and split into a clockfns layer and a "middle" layer
for other DEC systems which use mcclocks with each onchip byte
register padded out to a 32-bit word.
Clone alpha/alpha/mcclock (also duplicated in pmax port) into
sys/dev/dec, and ifdef for default clockrates on pmax and alpha.
Use new machinery on pmax for ibus,ioasic attached mcclocks.
