make development easier and push the ability of newbus to load busses
to the test.
Not added to sys/modules/Makefile because it isn't ready to break the
nightly snapshots for alpha yet :-).
NOTE: This is only for NEWCARD. The old pccard stuff will not build
as a loadable module.
multiplexed underlying swap devices (/dev/drum). The only thing it did
was to allow root to open /dev/drum, but not do anything with it.
Various utilities used to grovel around in here, but Matt has written
a much nicer (and clean) front-end to this for libkvm, and nothing uses
the old system any more.
The VM system was calling VOP_STRATEGY() on the vp of the first underlying
swap device (not the /dev/drum one, the first real device), and using
the VOP system to indirectly (and only) call swstrategy() to choose
an underlying device and enqueue it on that device. I have changed it
to avoid diverting through the VOP system and to call the only possible
target directly, saving a little bit of time and some complexity.
In all, nothing much changes, except some scaffolding to support the
roundabout way of calling swstrategy() is gone.
Matt gave me the ok to do this some time ago, and I apologize for taking
so long to get around to it.
code. You can now build the newcard's pcic driver as a module for all
the joy that will bring you, which currently isn't so much joy as it
is pain.
The old pccard module will never be made to work again, so I think
this is OK. Note, it still remains disabled in sys/modules/Makefile
on purpose.
Don't use NFDC as an arbitary limit, it is not required and goes against
using PnP fdc devices (eg: when PNPBIOS is turned on, the motherboard
devices (sio, fdc, etc etc) are detected via PnP, not config(8).)
mode. This addresses a well-known race condition that can cause
servers to hang in accept(). The relevant case is when somebody
connects to the server and then immediately kills the connection
by sending a TCP reset. On the server this causes select to report
a ready condition on the socket, after which the accept call blocks
because there is no longer any pending connection to accept.
In -current there is already a work-around for this in the kernel.
It was merged into -stable some time ago, but then David Greenman
reverted it because it seemed to be causing a socket leak in some
cases. (See uipc_socket.c revision 1.51.2.3.) Hence this userland
fix is needed in -stable, and I plan to merge it into that branch
soon because it fixes a potential DoS attack. It may also be needed
in -current if the suspected socket leak turns out to be real. In
any case, after thinking it over I believe the fix belongs in
userland. An application shouldn't assume that a ready return from
select guarantees that the subsequent I/O operation cannot block.
A lot can happen between the select and the accept.
A similar fix should most likely be applied to the Unix domain
socket transport too.

o Rewrite probe code to work in the newbus world.
o Add preliminary pnp support. I have no clue what the pnp ids for
the older ISA machines/cards. I don't have any of these cards/machines
so I'll have to rely on the user community to give me help.
o Minor code reformatting.
Attach hasn't been touched, and there may be some config issues that
we need to deal with as well. These will follow in time.

Cleaning up the code:
- Declare many functions static
- Change variable names to make them more self explanatory
- Change usbd_request_handle -> usbd_xfer_handle
- Syntactical changes
- Remove some unused code
- Other KNF changes
Interrupt context handling
- Change delay to usbd_delay_ms were possible (takes polling mode into
account)
- Change detection mechanism for interrupt context
Add support for pre-allocation DMA-able memory by device driver
Add preliminary support for isochronous to the UHCI driver (not for OHCI
yet).
usb.c, uhci.c, ohci.c
- Initial attempt at detachable USB host controllers
- Handle the use_polling flag with a lttle more care and only set it if
we are cold booting.
usb.c, uhci.c ohci.c, usbdi.c usbdi_util.c usb_subr.c
- Make sure an aborted pipe is marked as not running.
- Start queued request in the right order.
- Insert some more DIAGNOSTIC sanity checks.
- Remove (almost) unused definitions USBD_XFER_OUT and USBD_XFER_IN.
usb.c, usb_subr.c
- Add an event mechanism so that a userland process can watch devices
come and go.
ohci.c
- Handle the case when a USB transfer is so long that it crosses two
page (4K) boundaries. OHCI cannot do that with a single TD so we make
a chain.
ulpt.c
- Use a bigger buffer when transferring data.
- Pre-allocate the DMA buffer. This makes the driver slightly more
efficient.
- Comment out the GET_DEVICE_ID code, because for some unknown reason it
causes printing to fail sometimes.
usb.h
- Add a macro to extract the isoc type.
- Add a macro to check whether the routine has been entered after splusb
and if not, complain.
usbdi.c
- Fix a glitch in dequeueing and aborting requests on interrupt pipes.
- Add a flag in the request to determine if the data copying is done by
the driver or the usbdi layer.

Turn off setgid-kmem for /bin/ps, it's now quite functional without it.
ps no longer needs /dev/*mem or /proc. (It will still use some /proc
files if they are available for -e, but it's not required, so it'll
happily run in a jail or chroot).
The proc stats are now part of eproc (obtained via sysctl) and no longer
needs to beat up the u-page reading code and the problems with that.
This also has the side effect of disabling 'ps -e' for normal users
*EXCEPT* when looking at their own processes. ie: they can see
environments in processes with their uid, enforced by the ownership of
/proc/*/mem. Root can still see them all, as it can open all /proc/*/mem.

These were probably overlooked in the last minor version number upgrade

__FreeBSD_version < 400004.
This allows -STABLE to build -CURRENT sources.
[mkstemps() was added to -current just before the version bump to 400004
(a matter of hours in this case), so the test is as exact as possible.]
