gehenna 77a6b82b27 Merge the gehenna-devsw branch into the trunk. ... 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.		2002-09-06 13:18:43 +00:00
