are actually layered on top of the KeTimer API in subr_ntoskrnl.c, just
as it is in Windows. This reduces code duplication and more closely
imitates the way things are done in Windows.
- Modify ndis_encode_parm() to deal with the case where we have
a registry key expressed as a hex value ("0x1") which is being
read via NdisReadConfiguration() as an int. Previously, we tried
to decode things like "0x1" with strtol() using a base of 10, which
would always yield 0. This is what was causing problems with the
Intel 2200BG Centrino 802.11g driver: the .inf file that comes
with it has a key called RadioEnable with a value of 0x1. We
incorrectly decoded this value to '0' when it was queried, hence
the driver thought we wanted the radio turned off.
- In if_ndis.c, most drivers don't accept NDIS_80211_AUTHMODE_AUTO,
but NDIS_80211_AUTHMODE_SHARED may not be right in some cases,
so for now always use NDIS_80211_AUTHMODE_OPEN.
NOTE: There is still one problem with the Intel 2200BG driver: it
happens that the kernel stack in Windows is larger than the kernel
stack in FreeBSD. The 2200BG driver sometimes eats up more than 2
pages of stack space, which can lead to a double fault panic.
For the moment, I got things to work by adding the following to
my kernel config file:
options KSTACK_PAGES=8
I'm pretty sure 8 is too big; I just picked this value out of a hat
as a test, and it happened to work, so I left it. 4 pages might be
enough. Unfortunately, I don't think you can dynamically give a
thread a larger stack, so I'm not sure how to handle this short of
putting a note in the man page about it and dealing with the flood
of mail from people who never read man pages.
only done minimal testing on one of these cards and the firmware folks
have been extremely uncooperative in answering my qeustions about them, so
hopefully they will work ok for everyone.
This completes the effort to handle dependent functions, which are used
in some machines for irq link resources. Also, clean up some nearby
comments while I'm at it.
level of abstraction for any and all CPU mask and CPU bitmap variables
so that platforms have the ability to break free from the hard limit
of 32 CPUs, simply because we don't have more bits in an u_int. Note
that the type is not supposed to solve massive parallelism, where
the number of CPUs can be larger than the width of the widest integral
type. As such, cpumask_t is not supposed to be a compound type. If
such would be necessary in the future, we can deal with the issues
then and there. For now, it can be assumed that the type is integral
and unsigned.
With this commit, all MD definitions start off as u_int. This allows
us to phase-in cpumask_t at our leasure without breaking anything.
Once cpumask_t is used consistently, platforms can switch to wider
(or smaller) types if such would be beneficial (or not; whatever :-)

o Use tabs instead of 8 spaces
o Space after # beginning comment
o Fix entries lacking ":" after tab
o Removed whitespace at EOL

Yes, this means for stuff OTHER than jails, too. Example usage:
#devfs_system_ruleset="root"
devfs_set_rulesets="/dev=root /etc/namedb/dev=named_devfs"
This change has not been tested.
This change was triggered by a gcc(1) warning on ia64 at -O2. The
variable v was not used after being computed, which resulted in enough
dead code elimination (DCE) to confuse the compiler and emit a bogus
warning about the use of the variable i without prior definition. The
variable i is the loop variable.

Responsibility: marcel
for uart(4) to figure out which device to use as console. Use this file
to define hw.uart.console instead so that we don't have to put it in
the default loader.conf, which makes it hard to override.
to select a serial console and debug port (resp). On ia64 these replace
the use of hints completely and take precedence over hints on alpha,
amd64 and i386. On sparc64 these variables are not yet recognised.
The reasons for introducing these variables are:
1. Hints have side-effects. They reserve the unit number for use by
isa or acpi devices and therefore cannot be used to select a pci
device. Also, the use of a unit number to select a device prior
to bus enumeration is nonsense. The new variables have no side-
effects and are not based on unit numbers.
2. Hints don't have the expression power to allow the sysadmin to
select UARTs that are not legacy PC devices and need the support
of compile-time constants to give the sysadmin some level of
flexibility.
The hw.uart.console and hw.uart.dbgport variables specify a list of
attributes. An attribute is a tag-value pair, seperated by a colon.
Attributes are seperated by a comma. Where possible, tags are the
same as those in /etc/remote (only br and pa in practice). Details
can be found in the manpage (not part of this commit).

* Disabled shared-library building, as some API breakage is
still likely. (I didn't realize it was turned on by default.) If
you have an existing /usr/lib/libarchive.so.2, I recommend deleting it.
* Pax interchange format now correctly stores and reads UTF8
for extended attributes. In particular, pax format can portably
handle arbitrarily long pathnames containing arbitrary characters.
* Library compiles cleanly at -O2, -O3, and WARNS=6 on all
FreeBSD-CURRENT platforms.
* Minor portability improvements inspired by Juergen Lock
and Greg Lewis. (Less reliance on stdint.h, isolating of
various portability-challenged constructs.)
* archive_entry transparently converts multi-byte <-> wide character
strings, allowing clients and format handlers to deal with either
one, as appropriate.
* Support for reading 'L' and 'K' entries in standard tar archives
for star compatibility.
* Recognize (but don't yet handle) ACL entries from Solaris tar.
* Pushed format-specific data for format readers down into
format-specific storage and out of library-global storage. This
should make it easier to maintain individual formats without mucking
with the core library management.
* Documentation updates to track the above changes.
* Updates to tar.5 to correct a few mistakes and add some additional
information about GNU tar and Solaris tar formats.
Notes:
* The basic 'tar' reader is getting more general; there's not much
point in keeping the 'gnutar' reader separate. Merging the two
would lose a bunch of duplicate code.
* The libc ACL support is looking increasingly inadequate for my needs
here. I might need to assemble some fairly significant code for
parsing and building ACLs. <sigh>
revision 1.343, but it's needed for btxld(8), and this fix (along
with the --enable-64-bit-bfd configured BFD on i386) allows other
architectures to successfully cross-build the i386 world.
Tested on: alpha
from ddp_usrreq.c. Functions moved are:
at_pcballoc()
at_pcbconnect()
at_pcbdetach()
at_pcbdisconnect()
at_pcbsetaddr()
at_sockaddr()
Also moved are ddp_ports and ddpcb, global variables associated with DDP
pcbs. This makes PCB implementation more parallel to inet, inet6, and
ipx.
