completenss. The pessimization is tiny compared with i/o port slowness
except on very old machines, but code that used signed short types for
i/o ports was unpessimized long ago, and the macro that detected it
recently started working for u_short types too. Use of bus space
should have made this moot long ago.
Not tested at runtime by: bde
via the new DIGIIO_SETALTPIN ioctl, and allow the port's ALTPIN setting
to be queried via DIGIIO_GETALTPIN.
The initial state and lock devices are normally used to set and/or
lock ALTPIN settings although the device itself may also be used.
ALTPIN settings are applied per-device and apply to both the callin
and callout device at the same time.

for their efforts and add a couple of missing parenthesis around return
expressions.
This driver supports PCI Xr-based and ISA Xem Digiboard cards.
dgm will go away soon if there are no problems reported. For now,
configuring dgm into your kernel warns that you should be using
digi. This driver is probably close to supporting Xi, Xe and Xeve
cards, but I wouldn't expect them to work properly (hardware
donations welcome).
The digi_* pseudo-drivers are not drivers themselves but contain
the BIOS and FEP/OS binaries for various digiboard cards and are
auto-loaded and auto-unloaded by the digi driver at initialisation
time. They *may* be configured into the kernel, but waste a lot
of space if they are. They're intended to be left as modules.
The digictl program is (mainly) used to re-initialise cards that
have external port modules attached such as the PC/Xem.
