reducues the maintenance load for the mutex code. The only MD portions
of the mutex code are in machine/mutex.h now, which include the assembly
macros for handling mutexes as well as optionally overriding the mutex
micro-operations. For example, we use optimized micro-ops on the x86
platform #ifndef I386_CPU.
- Change the behavior of the SMP_DEBUG kernel option. In the new code,
mtx_assert() only depends on INVARIANTS, allowing other kernel developers
to have working mutex assertiions without having to include all of the
mutex debugging code. The SMP_DEBUG kernel option has been renamed to
MUTEX_DEBUG and now just controls extra mutex debugging code.
- Abolish the ugly mtx_f hack. Instead, we dynamically allocate
seperate mtx_debug structures on the fly in mtx_init, except for mutexes
that are initiated very early in the boot process. These mutexes
are declared using a special MUTEX_DECLARE() macro, and use a new
flag MTX_COLD when calling mtx_init. This is still somewhat hackish,
but it is less evil than the mtx_f filler struct, and the mtx struct is
now the same size with and without mutex debugging code.
- Add some micro-micro-operation macros for doing the actual atomic
operations on the mutex mtx_lock field to make it easier for other archs
to override/optimize mutex ops if needed. These new tiny ops also clean
up the code in some places by replacing long atomic operation function
calls that spanned 2-3 lines with a short 1-line macro call.
- Don't call mi_switch() from mtx_enter_hard() when we block while trying
to obtain a sleep mutex. Calling mi_switch() would bogusly release
Giant before switching to the next process. Instead, inline most of the
code from mi_switch() in the mtx_enter_hard() function. Note that when
we finally kill Giant we can back this out and go back to calling
mi_switch().

While here, work around a strange quirk in config(8) that I do not yet
understand. Rearrange which atapi* files have 'optional' vs. 'count'
so that you can have atapifd without atapicd. The only difference should
be that this works instead of having a link error because atapi-all.o got
left out of the kernel.
drivers (again). These drivers have not compiled for 5-6 months.
Now that the new sound code supports MIDI, the major reason we had for
reviving it is gone. It is a far better investment polishing the new
midi code than trying to keep this on life support. Come 5.0-REL, if
there are major shortcomings in the pcm sound driver then maybe we can
rethink this, but until then we should focus on pcm.
Remember, these have not been compilable since ~April-May this year.
The code for suspend/resume is derived from APM device driver.
Some people suggested the original code is somewhat buggy, but I'd
like to just move it from apm.c without any major changes for the
initial version. This code should be refined later.
To use pmtimer to adjust time at resume time, add
device pmtimer
in your kernel config file, and add
hint.pmtimer.0.at="isa"
in your device.hints

* Mutual exclusion is used instead of spl*(). See mutex(9). (Note: The
alpha port is still in transition and currently uses both.)
* Per-CPU idle processes.
* Interrupts are run in their own separate kernel threads and can be
preempted (i386 only).

Use Warner Losh's "hint" driver to decode ascii strings to fill the
resource table at boot time.
config(8) no longer generates an ioconf.c table - ie: the configuration
no longer has to be compiled into the kernel. You can reconfigure your
isa devices with the likes of this at loader(8) time:
set hint.ed.0.port=0x320
userconfig will be rewritten to use this style interface one day and will
move to /boot/userconfig.4th or something like that.
It is still possible to statically compile in a set of hints into a kernel
if you do not wish to use loader(8). See the "hints" directive in GENERIC
as an example.
All device wiring has been moved out of config(8). There is a set of
helper scripts (see i386/conf/gethints.pl, and the same for alpha and pc98)
that extract the 'at isa? port foo irq bar' from the old files and produces
a hints file. If you install this file as /boot/device.hints (and update
/boot/defaults/loader.conf - You can do a build/install in sys/boot) then
loader will load it automatically for you. You can also compile in the
hints directly with: hints "device.hints" as well.
There are a few things that I'm not too happy with yet. Under this scheme,
things like LINT would no longer be useful as "documentation" of settings.
I have renamed this file to 'NOTES' and stored the example hints strings
in it. However... this is not something that config(8) understands, so
there is a script that extracts the build-specific data from the
documentation file (NOTES) to produce a LINT that can be config'ed and
built. A stack of man4 pages will need updating. :-/
Also, since there is no longer a difference between 'device' and
'pseudo-device' I collapsed the two together, and the resulting 'device'
takes a 'number of units' for devices that still have it statically
allocated. eg: 'device fe 4' will compile the fe driver with NFE set
to 4. You can then set hints for 4 units (0 - 3). Also note that
'device fe0' will be interpreted as "zero units of 'fe'" which would be
bad, so there is a config warning for this. This is only needed for
old drivers that still have static limits on numbers of units.
All the statically limited drivers that I could find were marked.
Please exercise EXTREME CAUTION when transitioning!

- The module does not detach very well. Attaching works fine.
config(8). This commit allows control of the creation of the
#include "foo.h" files. We now only create them explicitly when needed.
BTW; these are mostly bad because they usually imply static limits on
numbers of units for devices. eg: struct mysoftc sc[NFOO];
These static limits have Got To Go.
Symbol values are now represented using array sizes (4 arrays per symbol
so that 16-bit machines can represent 64-bit values) instead of being raw
binary values.

it's options COMPAT_OLDISA and COMPAT_OLDPCI. This is meant to be a
fairly strong incentive to update the older drivers to newbus, but doesn't
(quite) leave anybody hanging with no hardware support. I was talking with
a few folks and I was encouraged to simply break or disable the shims but
that was a bit too drastic for my liking.
Enable the driver in sys/conf/files.i386.
In isa/isavar.h increase ISA_NPORT from 32 to 50. This is required
because this brain-damaged card maps 49 (!) port ranges. This does
not have a negative impact because this value only specifies the maximum
number of entries in a linked list and not the size of an array which
is allocated in all drivers.
The register/fifo access routines were not newbus-ified because
1) I knew that the old code worked and is simpler and more efficient
2) the if_ed driver does something similar and
3) the newbus macros collapse to inb/outb anyway.

- Split terminal emulation code from the main part of the driver so
that we can have alternative terminal emulator modules if we like in
the future. (We are not quite there yet, though.)
- Put sysmouse related code in a separate file, thus, simplifying the
main part of the driver.
As some files are added to the source tree, you need to run config(8)
before you compile a new kernel next time.
You shouldn't see any functional change by this commit; this is only
internal code reorganization.
Collect together the components of several drivers and export eisa from
the i386-only area (It's not, it's on some alphas too). The code hasn't
been updated to work on the Alpha yet, but that can come later.
Repository copies were done a while ago.
Moving these now keeps them in consistant place across the 4.x series
as the newbusification progresses.

Driver is not functional yet, but does compile. Tests with xe cards
indicates that it doesn't panic the machine when they are present, but
fail to probe. Interface help in the pcic/pccard layers are needed to
complete this driver.
-U_KERNEL became negative when all all the genassym.c's were converted
to be cross-built. Related cleanups: PARAM went away, but was still
used here; KERNEL was renamed to _KERNEL, but was still KERNEL here;
the deprecated macros $@ and $< were still used here.
Use "genassym ... > ${.TARGET}", not "genassym -o $@ ...", so that
genassym(1) doesn't need to support -o.
Removed half-baked hard-coded dependencies of *_genassym.o on headers.
These objects should be added to the list of objects in the depend
rule to get full dependencies. This doesn't happen automatically
because they are not linked into the kernel. Half baked dependencies
don't really help.
These drivers were cloned from the ed and ep drivers back in 1994
when PCMCIA cards were a very new thing and we had no other support
for such devices. They treated the PCIC (the chip which controls the
PCCARD slot) as part of their device and generally hacked their way
to success. They have significantly bit-rotted relative to their
ancestor drivers (ed & ep) and they were a dead-end on the evolution
path to proper PCCARD support in FreeBSD.
They have been terminally broken since August 18 where mdodd forgot
them and nobody seems to have missed them enough to fix them since.
I found no outstanding PRs against these drivers.
