8122a592ee Provide basic glue to allow syscons to be used on MIPS, modelled
on PowerPC support.  This was clearly not something syscons was
designed to do (very specific assumptions about the nature of VGA
consoles on PCs), but fortunately others have long since blazed
the way on making it work regardless of that.

bc093719ca Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.
The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:

- Improved driver model:

  The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
  make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
  device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
  in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
  TTY buffers.

  If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
  (still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
  implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.

- Improved hotplugging:

  With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
  the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
  where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
  the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
  used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).

  The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
  posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.

- Improved performance:

  One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
  to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
  Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
  used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.

Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.

f457830b8e de-count schistory.c. The handling of NSC was rather bogus here and was
little more than a place holder, because nothing actually counted the
number of 'sc' units to compare it against NSC.  A bit more work here
is needed so that the scaling of SC_MAX_HISTORY_SIZE and extra_history_size
goes up when more sc units are added.  But, it does not appear that we can
have more than one console yet, so it does not seem particularly urgent.

b40ce4165d KSE Milestone 2
Note ALL MODULES MUST BE RECOMPILED
make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.

Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)

Replace all in-tree uses with necessary subset of <sys/{fb,kb,cons}io.h>.
This is also the appropriate fix for exo-tree sources.

Put warnings in <machine/console.h> to discourage use.
November 15th 2000 the warnings will be converted to errors.
January 15th 2001 the <machine/console.h> files will be removed.

8f8e587948 Use config's conditional compilation rather than using #ifdefs that make
modular compilation harder.  I'm doing this because people seem to like
cut/pasting examples of bad practices in existing code.

2b944ee2b9 This is the 3rd stage of syscons code reorganization.
- Split terminal emulation code from the main part of the driver so
that we can have alternative terminal emulator modules if we like in
the future.  (We are not quite there yet, though.)

- Put sysmouse related code in a separate file, thus, simplifying the
main part of the driver.

As some files are added to the source tree, you need to run config(8)
before you compile a new kernel next time.

You shouldn't see any functional change by this commit; this is only
internal code reorganization.

8c12242c81 - Hang the scr_stat struct from dev_t.
- Remove sc_get_scr_stat().  It's not necessary anymore.
- Call ttymalloc() to allocate the struct tty for each vty, rather than
  statically declaring an array of struct tty.  We still need a statically
  allocated struct tty for the first vty which is used for the kernel
  console I/O, though.
- Likewise, call ttymalloc() for /dev/sysmouse and /dev/consolectl.
- Delete unnecessary test on the pointer struct tty *tp in some functions.
- Delete unused code in scmouse.c.

WARNING: this change requires you to recompile screen savers!

6e8394b8ba The second phase of syscons reorganization.
- Split syscons source code into manageable chunks and reorganize
  some of complicated functions.

- Many static variables are moved to the softc structure.

- Added a new key function, PREV.  When this key is pressed, the vty
  immediately before the current vty will become foreground.  Analogue
  to PREV, which is usually assigned to the PrntScrn key.

  Submitted by: Christian Weisgerber <naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de>

- Modified the kernel console input function sccngetc() so that it
  handles function keys properly.

- Reorganized the screen update routine.

- VT switching code is reorganized.  It now should be slightly more
  robust than before.

- Added the DEVICE_RESUME function so that syscons no longer hooks the
  APM resume event directly.

- New kernel configuration options: SC_NO_CUTPASTE, SC_NO_FONT_LOADING,
  SC_NO_HISTORY and SC_NO_SYSMOUSE.
  Various parts of syscons can be omitted so that the kernel size is
  reduced.

  SC_PIXEL_MODE
  Made the VESA 800x600 mode an option, rather than a standard part of
  syscons.

  SC_DISABLE_DDBKEY
  Disables the `debug' key combination.

  SC_ALT_MOUSE_IMAGE
  Inverse the character cell at the mouse cursor position in the text
  console, rather than drawing an arrow on the screen.

  SC_DFLT_FONT
  makeoptions "SC_DFLT_FONT=_font_name_"
  Include the named font as the default font of syscons.  16-line,
  14-line and 8-line font data will be compiled in.  This option replaces
  the existing STD8X16FONT option, which loads 16-line font data only.

- The VGA driver is split into /sys/dev/fb/vga.c and /sys/isa/vga_isa.c.

- The video driver provides a set of ioctl commands to manipulate the
  frame buffer.

- New kernel configuration option: VGA_WIDTH90
  Enables 90 column modes: 90x25, 90x30, 90x43, 90x50, 90x60.  These
  modes are mot always supported by the video card.

- The header file machine/console.h is reorganized; its contents is now
  split into sys/fbio.h, sys/kbio.h (a new file) and sys/consio.h
  (another new file).  machine/console.h is still maintained for
  compatibility reasons.

- Kernel console selection/installation routines are fixed and
  slightly rebumped so that it should now be possible to switch between
  the interanl kernel console (sc or vt) and a remote kernel console
  (sio) again, as it was in 2.x, 3.0 and 3.1.

- Screen savers and splash screen decoders
  Because of the header file reorganization described above, screen
  savers and splash screen decoders are slightly modified.  After this
  update, /sys/modules/syscons/saver.h is no longer necessary and is
  removed.
