Add MD_ROOT and MD_ROOT_SIZE options to the md driver.
Make the md driver handle MFS_ROOT and MFS_ROOT_SIZE options for compatibility.
Add md driver to GENERIC, PCCARD and LINT.
This is a cleanup which removes the need for some of the worse hacks in
MFS: We really want to have a rootvnode but MFS on a preloaded image
doesn't really have one. md is a true device, so it is less trouble.
This has been tested with make release, and if people remember to add
the "md" pseudo-device to their kernels, PicoBSD should be just fine
as well. If people have no other use for MFS, it can be removed from
the kernel.
- Convert to new bus attachment scheme. Thanks to Blaz Zupan for doing
the initial work here. One thing I changed was to have the attach
and detach routines work like the PCI drivers, which means that in
theory you should be able to load and unload the driver like the PCI
NIC drivers, however the pccard support for this hasn't settled down
yet so it doesn't quite work. Once the pccard work is done, I'll have
to revisit this.
- Add device wi0 to PCCARD. If we're lucky, people should be able to
install via their WaveLAN cards now.
- Add support for signal strength caching. The wicontrol utility has
also been updated to allow zeroing and displaying the signal strength
cache.
- Add a /sys/modules/wi directory and fix a Makefile to builf if_wi.ko.
Currently this module is only built for the i386 platform, though once
the pccard stuff is done it should be able to work on the alpha too.
(Theoretically you should be able to plug one of the WaveLAN/IEEE ISA
cards into an alpha with an ISA slot, but we'll see how that turns out.
- Update LINT to use only device wi0. There is no true ISA version of
the WaveLAN/IEEE so we'll never use an ISA attachment.
- Update files.i386 so that if_wi is dependent on card.

MP lock for the last time. The use of a locked instruction to
cpu-private memory is 3x faster then CPUID and 3x faster then the
use of a locked instruction to shared memory (the lock itself).
Instruction serialization is required to ensure that any pending
memory ops are properly flushed prior to the release of the lock,
due to out-of-order instruction execution by the cpu.
Since an osigcontext is smaller, if you check for a valid (much larger sized)
ucontext_t and it fails, we bogusly would reject the osigcontext as per
rev 1.378. Instead, check for osigcontext range validity first, and
ucontext_t later. This unbreaks Netscape.

Historically, the documentation of extended asm was lacking, namely you
should NOT specify the same register as an input, and a clobber.
If the register is clobbered, it should be specified as an output as well,
e.g., by linking input and output through the "number" notation.
(Beware of lvalues, some local variables needed...)

In versions up to egcs-1.1.1, the compiler did not even warn about it,
but it was liable to output bad code. Newer egcs are pickier and simply
refuse to swallow such code.
Note, since *addr changes, it needs to be an output operand.
We might be excessive in saying that all memory has changed.

A more robust fallback path is also provided, with the last recourse

More to follow...
if_fe.c uses PCCARD_MODULE() and is part of GENERIC. I've #ifdef'ed out
the #include of "card.h" to hopefully disable pccard support in this
driver until it can be converted. I'm not positive this will fix make
release, but it can't possibly make it any worse than it is now.
I hope this stuff settles down soon.
o Gut the compatibility interface, you now must attach with newbus.
o Unit numbers from pccardd are now ignored. This may change the units
assigned to a card. It now uses the first available unit.
o kill old skeleton code that is now obsolete.
o Use newbus attachment code.
o cleanup interfile dependencies some.
o kill list of devices per slot. we use the device tree for what we need.
o Remove now obsolete code.
o The ep driver (and maybe ed) may need some config file tweaks to
allow it to attach. See config files that were committed for examples
on how to do this.
Drivers to be commited shortly.
This is an interrum fix until the new pccard. ed, ep and sio will be
supported by me with this release, although others are welcome to try
to support other devices before new pccard is working.
I plan on doing minimal further work on this code base. Be careful
when upgrading, since this code is known to work on my laptop and
those of a couple others as well, but your milage may vary.
BUGS TO BE FIXED:
o system memory isn't allocated yet, it will be soon.
o No devices actually have a pccard newbus attach in the tree.
BUGS THAT MIGHT BE FIXED:
o card removal, including suspend, usually hangs the system.
