the point where it being a macro is no longer sensible, and it will
only be more so in days to come.
BIO_STRATEGY() is now only used from DEV_STRATEGY() and should not
be used directly anymore.
Put the contents of both in the new function dev_strategy() and
make DEV_STRATEGY() call that function.
In addition, this allows us to make the rather magic bufdonebio()
helper function static.
This alse saves hunderedandsome bytes of code in a typical kernel.
Though this is still incomplete and has some missing features such as
exclusive login and event notification, it may be enough for someone
who wants to play with it.
This driver is supposed to work with firewire(4), targ(4) of CAM(4)
and scsi_target(8) which can be found in /usr/share/example/scsi_target.
This driver doesn't require sbp(4) which implements initiator mode.
Sample configuration:
Kernel: (you can use modules as well)
device firewire
device scbus
device targ
device sbp_targ
After reboot:
# mdconfig -a -t malloc -s 10m
md0
# scsi_target 0:0:0 /dev/md0
(Assuming sbp_targ0 on scbus0)
You should find the 10MB HDD on FreeBSD/MacOS X/WinXP or whatever connected
to the target using FireWire.

- Change type of target->luns to allocate an array of LUNs dynamically.
This allows targets to change their number of LUNs after each bus reset.
- Serialize ORB POINTER command for each LUN.
- Improve debug messages.
definition structure. Define one flag, CN_FLAG_NODEBUG, which
indicates the console driver cannot be used in the context of the
debugger. This may be used, for example, if the console device
interacts with kernel services that cannot be used from the
debugger context, such as the network stack. These drivers are
skipped over for calls to cn_checkc() and cn_putc(), and the
calling function simply moves on to the next available console.
- Correct the logic for the AIF array index pointers so that correct slot is
always looked at.
- Copy the full FIB payload size when copying AIF's, not just the first 64
bytes.
Thanks to Mirapoint, Inc, for pointing these problems out and offering a
solution.
a fair bit of difference to the power consumption and lets my cpu cool
down enough for the temperature sensitive fan controller to completely
stop the cpu fan at times.
halt state that minimizes power consumption while still preserving
cache and TLB coherency. Halting the processor is not conditional at
this time. Tested with UP and SMP kernels.

Xcpustop(). %es is used in at least the call to savectx() when savectx()
calls bcopy(), so not loading it was fatal if a stop IPI interrupts
user mode.
This reduces bugs starting and stopping CPUs for debuggers. CPUs are
stopped mainly in kdb_trap() and cpu_reset(). At reset time there is
a good chance that all the CPUs are in the kernel, so the bug was
probably harmless then.
classes and if a method is not found in a given class, its base classes
are searched (in the order they were declared). This search is recursive,
i.e. a method may be define in a base class of a base class.
* Change the kobj method lookup algorithm to one which is SMP-safe. This
relies only on the constraint that an observer of a sequence of writes
of pointer-sized values will see exactly one of those values, not a
mixture of two or more values. This assumption holds for all processors
which FreeBSD supports.
* Add locking to kobj class initialisation.
* Add a simpler form of 'inheritance' for devclasses. Each devclass can
have a parent devclass. Searches for drivers continue up the chain of
devclasses until either a matching driver is found or a devclass is
reached which has no parent. This can allow, for instance, pci drivers
to match cardbus devices (assuming that cardbus declares pci as its
parent devclass).
* Increment __FreeBSD_version.
This preserves the driver API entirely except for one minor feature used
by the ISA compatibility shims. A workaround for ISA compatibility will
be committed separately. The kobj and newbus ABI has changed - all modules
must be recompiled.
rounding errors. This was the source of the majority of the
interactivity problems. Reintroduce the old algorithm and its XXX.
- Up the interactivity threshold to 30. It really could stand to be even
a tiny bit higher.
- Let the sleep and run time accumulate up to 5 seconds of history rather
than two. This helps stop XFree86 from becoming non-interactive during
bursts of activity.
trashed after being freed. This has caused several panics including
kern/42277 related to soft updates. Jim Kuhn tracked the problem
down to ipfw limit rule processing. In the expiry of dynamic rules,
it is possible for an O_LIMIT_PARENT rule to be removed when it still
has live children. When the children eventually do expire, a pointer
to the (long gone) parent is dereferenced and a count decremented.
Since this memory can, and is, allocated for other purposes (in the
case of kern/42277 an inodedep structure), chaos ensues. The offset
in question in inodedep is the offset of the 16 bit count field in
the ipfw2 ipfw_dyn_rule.
