I zapped the MACHINE_MIPS stuff, it isn't likely to be useful apart from
recognition of the machine name. It would be reasonable to expect new
ports would look something like the alpha/i386 from a config perspective.
Note that this code is dormant unless the options files exist.
Also, parsing of quoted options in the config files is improved.
What this allows, is all the options in LINT to be specified to be
configured as #defines in a file rather than on the CC command line at
kernel build time. This means that 'make depend' will catch dependencies
on actual *options*, meaning that you can run 'config' and 'make depend'
in complete safety WITHOUT removing the compile directory each time.
Unfortunately, this requires a pass over the source to get the individual
files to #include the new .h files that would be generated by config.
This has a small compile time penalty (appears up to about 2% slower)
from a "fresh" build. Of course, you should not be needing to do complete
rebuilds very often once this was completed, so it would be an overall
win for most people.
Since this code is dormant and we've got a lot of other things happening
on the kernel tree at the moment (prototypes, devfs, static declarations
etc) I am not planning on doing any changes to activate this feature just
yet.
If you invoke config with the `-n' flag or have NO_CONFIG_CLOBBER in
your environment, config will behave the same way it used to. This is
now _documented_ as well. Rip out all the CONFIG_DONT_CLOBBER cruft;
some of it wasn't even correct anyway.
/usr/src/usr.sbin.config:
o -DSTATCLOCK gives kludges to support the rtc non-device as well as
old kludges to support the clk non-device.
/usr/src/usr.sbin/config.8:
o Document the trivialness of the new vector.h.
/usr/src/usr.sbin/mkglue.c:
o Only print DEVICE_NAMES and NR_DEVICES in vector.h. These are
only required to support vmstat. The vmstat interface will need
to be improved for dynamic loading.
/usr/src/usr.sbin/mkioconf.c:
o Print device ids to be used as indexes into DEVICE_NAMES.
o Print secondary interrupt handler entry points (xxxintr()) instead
of primary ones (VdevU()). Primary ones are now XintrI() and
XfastintrI() and are independent of the config so they are not
handled here.
o Minor cleanups.
