BIO_READ and BIO_WRITE, we've handled this expanded syntax poorly in
drivers when the driver doesn't support a particular command. Do a
sweep and fix that.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
to check the status property in their probe routines.
Simplebus used to only instantiate its children whose status="okay"
but that was improper behavior, fixed in r261352. Now that it doesn't
check anymore and probes all its children; the children all have to
do the check because really only the children know how to properly
interpret their status property strings.
Right now all existing drivers only understand "okay" versus something-
that's-not-okay, so they all use the new ofw_bus_status_okay() helper.

Add a new option ALTERA_SDCARD_FAST_SIM which checks immediatly
for success of I/O operations rather than queuing a task.

up or if bootverbose is set.

Add a missing 0 to the mask for byte0 of C_SIZE.
The previous mask (0xc) worked except that the last 0-1536K of the disk
could not be accessed since we were shifting the (wrong) bits we did
mask off the right edge.
which can be synthesised in Altera FPGAs. An altera_sdcardc device
probes during the boot, and /dev/altera_sdcard devices come and go as
inserted and removed. The device driver attaches directly to the
Nexus, as is common for system-on-chip device drivers.
This IP core suffers a number of significant limitations, including a
lack of interrupt-driven I/O -- we must implement timer-driven polling,
only CSD 0 cards (up to 2G) are supported, there are serious memory
access issues that require the driver to verify writes to memory-mapped
buffers, undocumented alignment requirements, and erroneous error
returns. The driver must therefore work quite hard, despite a fairly
simple hardware-software interface. The IP core also supports at most
one outstanding I/O at a time, so is not a speed demon.
However, with the above workarounds, and subject to performance
problems, it works quite reliably in practice, and we can use it for
read-write mounts of root file systems, etc.
