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.
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.
compiles! Remove all pmax include files, copying 'struct pdma'
from <pmax/dev/pdma.h> into sccvar.h.
XXX: diffs between current pmax and alpha scc.c are almost as large
as the files themselves. Should clean this up...
Rather than an "iointr" routine that decomposes a vector into an
IRQ, we maintain a vector table directly, hooking up each "iointr"
routine at the correct vector. This also allows us to hook device
interrupts up to specific vectors (c.f. Jensen).
We can shave even more cycles off, here, and I will, but it requires
some changes to the alpha_shared_intr stuff.
device and the id string is not found in option ROM string, but
ULTRIX/OSF1 call it so anyway.
- Squash IOASIC DMA buffer allocation into device attach() sequence.
"off_t" and the return value is a "paddr_t" to allow mappings
at offsets past 2^31 bytes. Somewhat inspired by FreeBSD, which
only changed the offset to a "vm_offset_t".
Includes updates for the i386, pc532 and sh3 mmmmap from Jason Thorpe.
and scsipi_device respectively, with size reduction of ncr53c9x_softc.
Specifying NULL instructs the driver to use default adapter and default
device codes. Every target port has ncr53c9x_attach(sc, NULL, NULL) anyway.
macro in the MULTIPROCESSOR case (hardclock() wants it).
- Implement __GENERIC_SOFT_INTERRUPTS, and redefine the legacy
software interrupts in terms of it. Garbage-collect setsoftserial().
- Add sysarch methods for "get bus window count", "get bus window",
and "pci conf read/write".
These are a hack, but they're what's necessary in order to make
XFree86 work in its current state.
