in cyopen() were done in a different order than in sioopen(), partly
to (ab)use a side effect of comparam() and partly because I didn't
understand what the reset was doing (it flushes the fifos). This
turned out to be more than a cosmetic problem. Flushing the fifos
quite late is good for discarding input that arrived while the line
state was being initialized, and in the cy driver it also seems to
reduce a problem with input that arrived long ago during the previous
close (the UART loses sync too easily and for too long).
change the original code but add an extra option "ALI_V" to check the
precise IDE port.(especially, secondary) Use the same option "ALI_V" on
the kernel config file to prevent generic DMA check causes wrong result.
(It seems buggy even on PIIX4 chipset, and I don't know when this bug start)
Should I add the option "ALI_V" into /sys/i386/conf/LINT ?
ethernet driver.
The BUGS section is still impressive, but the driver seems to work for
me now. Disclaimer: i haven't been able to test this under -current
so far (but it compiles, and the notebook it's intended for can now be
updated to -current more easy than before). Don't be afraid of the
many #ifdefs on __FreeBSD_version in the imported file; i want them in
the repository on the vendor-branch so other people can also manually
integrate it into older systems. I'll clean it up on the -current
branch in a followup commit. The vendor-banch version right now
supports systems back to 2.2R.
This driver should be layered upon ppc(4), but i currently have no
idea how to do this.
Eventually i'll further develop the driver to also support the more
modern RTL 8012 success, which seems to be present in a number of
cheap pocket ethernet adapters these days. Right now, i doubt it will
run with the 8012 without any changes.
Finally a big Thanks! to RealTek for promptly providing me with
documentation and with the source code for the 8012 pocket driver upon
request. I wish all vendors were that cooperative!.
The optimisation of only waiting before issuing new commands is
obviously invalid in general and it caused many errors in NIST-PCTS.
I think the errors were mostly for characters sent with the wrong
parity, etc., after a half complete tcsetattr().
Use microtime() instead of a magic loop count to limit the wait.
The wait is a busy-wait :-( and normally takes about 500 usec.
almost works properly. Unfortunately, there is no way to flush
the rx fifo without resetting the channel, which also flushes the
tx fifo. We avoid resetting even when both fifos need to be flushed,
since resetting seems to cause the rx to lose sync if it is done
while data is arriving.

hardware is interrupt-driven to a fault and sending a BREAK requires
mode switching. Always running in the BREAK-capable mode as in PR 8318
would double the overhead for sending \0's.

Not tested on the if_sr, if_cx and if_ar drivers, but
expected to work just the same as it used to.
Any users of these drivers (or even better: donors
of hardware for them) please contact phk@freebsd.org
so we can test the next batch of changes to if_sppp.
as well as several functional additions.
(1) dot3 MIB support.
(2) if_media selection method support.
(3) bridge support.
(4) new boards support. Supported boards are as follows.

in rev.1.30 (just before FreeBSD-1.1R) to almost match corresponding
breakage in FreeBSD-1.x's diskerr(). FreeBSD-2.x's diskerr() never
had the breakage.
floppy is used on the toshiba Libretto line of subnotebook computers.
It differs from a normal floppy in that you must use PIO rather than
DMA to transfer the data.
To enable this, you must add options "FDC_YE" to your kernel. I don't
have a machine that has a floppy and a pcmcia slot to test to make
sure that this doesn't impact normal floppy units, so I've left this as
an option.
I have ported this to -current and made an attempt to ensure that the
indentation conforms to style(9), aka the bruce filter.

for possible buffer overflow problems. Replaced most sprintf()'s
with snprintf(); for others cases, added terminating NUL bytes where
appropriate, replaced constants like "16" with sizeof(), etc.
These changes include several bug fixes, but most changes are for
maintainability's sake. Any instance where it wasn't "immediately
obvious" that a buffer overflow could not occur was made safer.
