from the old driver. Change format of quirk table to have a preferred block
size for devices that need to be QUIRK_FIXED- this is loaded into the
last_media_blocksize tag at saregister time and will be used in the first
samount case.
Change sasetparams to take a sense_flags argument so that probe time testing
can be quieter (e.g. with SF_NO_PRINT).
Fix a couple of silly bugs in the fixed/variable determination in samount- one
was where there was a check against 'guessing' AND the density code being
default density- *SMACK* - you're only guessing if you find the media code
to be *other* than default density. Second bug was a test against current
blocksize being zero- should be a test against whether current blocksize
is not equal to the last blocksize if you had wanted to be fixed (suppose
you came up in fixed, but not the preferred size?). And if you don't
know what the fixed size should be, select 512 as the starting point,
not BLKDEV_IOSIZE (reality wins). Finally, in doing the test set to variable
mode, make sasetparams non-chatty.

Because of the changes, you are required to update your kernel

The files in sys/dev/syscons are still i386-specific (but less so than
before), and won't compile for alpha and PC98 yet.
syscons still directly accesses the video card registers here and
there; this will be rectified in the later stages.

where transmission would stall during periods of heavy traffic
exchange between two hosts. Also set the 'want interrupt' bit in
receive descriptor control words.
Move the relocated boot1 and arg transfer space from 0x600/0x800 to
0x700/0x900. In theory this should make no difference, apart from the fact
that Buslogic controllers happen to use a few bytes at 0x600 for some sort
of scratch space for it's int 0x13 hook (!!!), causing the machine to crash
badly when the boot2 code makes it's callbacks into boot1 for disk IO.

There is not point in loading gobs of ascii into the kernel when
the only use of that ascii is presentation to the user.
Next thing we'd be adding all section 4 man pages to the loaded
kernel as well.
The argument about KLD's is bogus, klds can store a file in
/usr/share/doc/sysctl/dev/foo/thisvar.txt with a description and
sysctl or other facilities can pick it up there.
Proper documentation will take several K worth of text for many
sysctl variables, we don't want that in the kernel under any
circumstances.
I will welcome any well thought out attempt at improving the
situation wrt. sysctl documentation, but this wasn't it.

on the ASIX AX88140A chip. Update /sys/conf/files, RELNOTES.TXT,
/sys/i388/i386/userconfig.c, sysinstall/devices.c, GENERIC and LINT
accordingly.
For now, the only board that I know of that uses this chip is the
Alfa Inc. GFC2204. (Its predecessor, the GFC2202, was a DEC tulip card.)
Thanks again to Ulf for obtaining the board for me. If anyone runs
across another, please feel free to update the man page and/or the
release notes. (The same applies for the other drivers.)
FreeBSD should now have support for all of the DEC tulip workalike
chipsets currently on the market (Macronix, Lite-On, Winbond, ASIX).
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
ethernet hardware.
Also updated RELNOTEX.TXT to mention that the SVEC PN102TX is supported
by the Macronix driver (assuming you actually have an SVEC PN102TX with
a Macronix chip on it; I tried to order a PN102TX once and got a box
labeled 'Hawking Technology PN102TX' that had a VIA Rhine board inside
it).

RB_CONFIG.
Now, the code should do the right thing in the following cases, when
kernel is compiled with INTRO_USERCONFIG:
* when booted without userconfig_script and without RB_CONFIG, present
intro screen, and wait for user input.
* when booted with userconfig_script and without RB_CONFIG, DON'T present
intro screen unless explicitly asked in userconfig_script, basing on
assumption that if a user loads userconfig_script, (s)he already
decided what parameters to configure. Proceed with booting.
* when booted without userconfig_script, and with RB_CONFIG, enter
configuration utility and wait for user input.
* when booted with userconfig_script, and with RB_CONFIG, execute all
commands from userconfig_script, and DON'T leave the config utility,
but wait for user input.
And finally, regardless of the combination of the above parameters,
when intro screen is invoked either first or next times, and user
chooses to go back to CLI interface, unblock the quit command.
