This changes the definitions of a few items so that structures are the

As the author says:
|I ran into a problem pulling out the VM_STACK option. I was aware of this
|when I first did the work, but then forgot about it. The VM_STACK stuff
|has some code changes in the i386 branch. There need to be corresponding
|changes in the alpha branch before it can come out completely.
what is done:
|
|1) Pull the VM_STACK option out of the header files it appears in. This
|really shouldn't affect anything that executes with or without the rest
|of the VM_STACK patches. The vm_map_entry will then always have one
|extra element (avail_ssize). It just won't be used if the VM_STACK
|option is not turned on.
|
|I've also pulled the option out of vm_map.c. This shouldn't harm anything,
|since the routines that are enabled as a result are not called unless
|the VM_STACK option is enabled elsewhere.
|
|2) Add what appears to be appropriate code the the alpha branch, still
|protected behind the VM_STACK switch. I don't have an alpha machine,
|so we would need to get some testers with alpha machines to try it out.
|
|Once there is some testing, we can consider making the change permanent
|for both i386 and alpha.
|
[..]
|
|Once the alpha code is adequately tested, we can pull VM_STACK out
|everywhere.

For now, the only board that I know of that uses this chip is the

Thanks again to Ulf for obtaining the board for me. If anyone runs

FreeBSD should now have support for all of the DEC tulip workalike

And unless I'm mistaken, it should also have support for all PCI fast
ethernet chipsets in general (except maybe the SMC FEAST chip, which
nobody seems to ever use, including SMC). Now if only we could convince
3Com, Intel or whoever to cough up some documentation for gigabit

ISDN4BSD is the work of our brand-new comitter: Hellmuth Michaelis,
who has done a tremendous amount of work to bring us this far.
There are still some outstanding issues and files to bring into
the tree, and for now it will be needed to pick up all the extra
docs from the isdn4bsd release.
It is probably also a very good idea to subscribe to the isdn@freebsd.org
mailing list before you try this out.
These files correspond to release "beta Version 0.70.00 / December
1998" from Hellmuth.
linker sets don't work and thus neither does the kernel.
This should stop being a problem with an improved linker set mechanism in
the pipeline (see the bootloader) but for now this has to stay like this.
This has the useful side-effect of ensuring that opt_smp.h is
always generated, so we can assume it will always be available.

floppy is used on the toshiba Libretto line of subnotebook computers.
It differs from a normal floppy in that you must use PIO rather than
DMA to transfer the data.
To enable this, you must add options "FDC_YE" to your kernel. I don't
have a machine that has a floppy and a pcmcia slot to test to make
sure that this doesn't impact normal floppy units, so I've left this as
an option.
I have ported this to -current and made an attempt to ensure that the
indentation conforms to style(9), aka the bruce filter.

alpha, operations involving non-finite numbers or denormalised numbers
or operations which should generate such numbers will cause an arithmetic
exception. For programs which follow some strict code generation rules,
the kernel trap handler can then 'complete' the operation by emulating
the faulting instruction.
To use software completion, a program must be compiled with the arguments
'-mtrap-precision=i' and '-mfp-trap-mode=su' or '-mfp-trap-mode=sui'.
Programs compiled in this way can use non-finite and denormalised numbers
at the expense of slightly less efficient code generation of floating
point instructions. Programs not compiled with these options will receive
a SIGFPE signal when non-finite or denormalised numbers are used or
generated.

problem is worked around by using an interrupt gate for the page
fault handler. This code was originally made for NetBSD/pc98 by
Naofumi Honda <honda@kururu.math.sci.hokudai.ac.jp> and has already
been in PC98 tree. Because of this bug, trap_fatal cannot show
correct page fault address if %cr2 is obtained in this function.
Therefore, trap_fatal uses the value from trap() function.

file to a stream socket. sendfile(2) is similar to implementations in
HP-UX, Linux, and other systems, but the API is more extensive and
addresses many of the complaints that the Apache Group and others have
had with those other implementations. Thanks to Marc Slemko of the
Apache Group for helping me work out the best API for this.
Anyway, this has the "net" result of speeding up sends of files over
TCP/IP sockets by about 10X (that is to say, uses 1/10th of the CPU
cycles) when compared to a traditional read/write loop.

the in-kernel linker to access the _DYNAMIC data for doing loadable elf
modules. The alpha kernel is already done this way, I've borrowed some of
the hacks from there.
This is primarily aimed at the 3-stage boot process which is intended to
be able to do pre-loading of kernel modules.
Note that the entry point isn't 0xf0100000 any more, it'll be a little
further on - but this value is stored in the headers. I don't think this
will be a problem, but I'm sure somebody will tell me if it is. :-)
I'm not sure if btxboot is going to like this, it doesn't do proper ELF
header checking and assumes that there are exactly two program header
entries and that they are both PT_LOAD entries - a bad assumption.
