for the kernel, but gcc provides an inline version of it if the
kernel is compiled with -O.
The inline memcmp() is OK for small compares and is better than
the dumb kernel bcmp() in all cases, but it has been hiding the
library memcmp() which is 4 times faster for large compares.
This is performed by using a line similar to:
controller scbus0 at ahc0 bus 1
to wire scbus0 to the second bus on an adaptec 2742T controller.

probes). Apart from there being no reason to set SCSI_NOSLEEP on every
tape command, this prevents controller drivers from sleeping when resources
are fully utilized causing unecessary "Oops not queued" errors. This is
only noticed for controllers that can run out of resources like the
27/2842 adaptec controllers. Before this fix, it is almost impossible to
perform extended tape operations if more than one scsi disk is on the
bus with the tape drive with these controllers. This does not address a
similar problem that could occur if devices are probed while other targets
are active since SCSI_NOSLEEP will still be set in that case.
>Synopsis: Booting w/scsi tape in drive causes first use to fail
Booting with a tape in a SCSI tape drive will cause the first
use of the tape to fail with the following message:
st0: bad request, must be between 0 and 0.

I copied the STUNIT definition from the old scsiconf.c into this file to
work around this problem.

Clean up scsiconf.h a little. It needs more work.

effect. Races in sdopen() and sdioctl() become more numerous than before.
Close the device in sdsize(). Media removal could not have worked right
when unused swap devices were held open. There may now be a problem
with used swap devices not being held open.
Fix ancient operator precedence bug in sddump(). It may have been
possible to attempt dumping to unloaded media.
Remove NetBSD ifdefs. We're too different now, and the NetBSD driver was
already too different for them to be relevant.
Remove support for soft write protection. There are no ioctls to set it,
and this driver never set it either. It was used in the wd driver to
disable writing to unlabelled disk, but we want to support writing to
foreign partitions on unlabeled disks.
Clean up some formatting and restore some old-style function headers.

The code uses "key-1" to index into a table and then the kernel go to never-

Here is a fix for this. Will somebody please apply it?
