supposed to be opaque to the driver, however it is exposed through
several macros which expect certain behavior. In my original
implementation, I used the mappedsystemva member of the structure
to hold a pointer to the buffer and bytecount to hold the length.
It turns out you must use the startva pointer to point to the
page containing the start of the buffer and set byteoffset to
the offset within the page where the buffer starts. So, for a buffer
with address 'baseva,' startva is baseva & ~(PAGE_SIZE -1) and
byteoffset is baseva & (PAGE_SIZE -1). We have to maintain this
convention everywhere that ndis_buffers are used.
Fortunately, Microsoft defines some macros for initializing and
manipulating NDIS_BUFFER structures in ntddk.h. I adapted some
of them for use here and used them where appropriate.
This fixes the discrepancy I observed between how RX'ed packet sizes
were being reported in the Broadcom wireless driver and the sample
ethernet drivers that I've tested. This should also help the
Intel Centrino wireless driver work.
Also try to properly initialize the 802.11 BSS and IBSS channels.
(Sadly, the channel value is meaningless since there's no way
in the existing NDIS API to get/set the channel, but this should
take care of any 'invalid channel (NULL)' messages printed on
the console.
use it, if we ever did. They have been been VERY poorly maintained for
some time, possibly because they were a NOP. FWIW, This brings our table
formats back closer to the other *BSD's.
- eliminate a malloc()/snprintf()/free() in the native exec(2) case and
in the easy emulation environments.
- Allow the brand emul_path (ie: /compat/xxx) to be NULL rather than
needing it to be an empty string that is always referenced.
but *only* for the kernel. We can do this because the kernel is not a
standard C application environment. This would have stopped the recent
mtx_* arg NULL/MTX_DEF mixups from going unnoticed for so long.
broken BIOS. Separate ohci_controller_init() from ohci_init(),
and call ohci_controller_init() at resume process once more.

methods for USB devices in the same way of uhci driver. But this change
is not complete because some ohci controlers are not initialized completely.
So "kernel: usb0: 1 scheduling overruns" interrupt will generate many times.
This change will be same one in PR kern/60099.

In NdisQueryBuffer() and NdisQueryBufferSafe(), the vaddr argument is
optional, so test it before trying to dereference it.
Also correct NdisGetFirstBufferFromPacket()/NdisGetFirstBufferFromPacketSafe():
we need to use nb_mappedsystemva from the buffer, not nb_systemva.
routines: NdisUnchainBufferAtBack(), NdisGetFirstBufferFromPacketSafe()
and NdisGetFirstBufferFromPacket(). This should bring us a little
closer to getting the Intel centrino wireless NIC to work.
Note: I have not actually tested these additions since I don't
have a driver that calls them, however they're pretty simple, and
one of them is taken pretty much directly from the Windows ndis.h
header file, so I'm fairly confident they work, but disclaimers
apply.
This guard page would have trapped the problems with the MFC of the PAE
support to RELENG_4 at an earlier point in the sequence of events.

pmap_init(). Such a large preallocation is unnecessary and wastes
nearly eight megabytes of kernel virtual address space per gigabyte
of managed physical memory.
- Increase UMA_BOOT_PAGES by two. This enables the removal of
pmap_pv_allocf(). (Note: this function was only used during
initialization, specifically, after pmap_init() but before
pmap_init2(). During pmap_init2(), a new allocator is installed.)

for working to track this down.
