we can switch to 64M-sized identity mappings and not having to map the
first 64M. This is especially important because the first 1M contains
the VGA frame buffer and is otherwise a legacy memory range. Best to
make as little assumptions about it as possible. Switching to 64M-sized
mappings is important to avoid creating overlapping translations, which
have the side-effect of triggering machine checks. This is currently
what's preventing us to boot on an Intel Tiger 4.
Note that since we currently use 256M-sized identity mappings, we
would reduce the size of the mappings and consequently increase the
TLB pressure. The performance implications of this are minimal if
measurable at all because identify mappings are not our primary
means for memory management.
Also note that there's no guarantee that physical memory exists at
64M. Then again, we didn't had the guarantee when we were loading at
5M. We'll deal with this when it's a problem.

change also disables interrupts around non-S4 suspends whereas before we
did not do this. Our version of AcpiEnterSleepStateS4bios was almost
identical to the ACPICA version.
Without this option it is not possible to omit the driver from the
configuration file and successfully build a kernel.
This option is specific to alpha.
Restructure the way ATA/ATAPI commands are processed, use a common
ata_request structure for both. This centralises the way requests
are handled so locking is much easier to handle.
The driver is now layered much more cleanly to seperate the lowlevel
HW access so it can be tailored to specific controllers without touching
the upper layers. This is needed to support some of the newer
semi-intelligent ATA controllers showing up.
The top level drivers (disk, ATAPI devices) are more or less still
the same with just corrections to use the new interface.
Pull ATA out from under Gaint now that locking can be done in a sane way.
Add support for a the National Geode SC1100. Thanks to Soekris engineering
for sponsoring a Soekris 4801 to make this support.
Fixed alot of small bugs in the chipset code for various chips now
we are around in that corner anyways.
found only many tv-cards.
We currently use more ore less evil hacks (slow_msp_audio sysctl) to
configure the various variants of these chips in order to have
stereo autodetection work. Nevertheless, this doesn't always work
even though it _should_, according to the specs.
This is, for example, the case for some popular Hauppauge models sold
sold in Germany.
However, the Linux driver always worked for me and others. Looking at
the sourcecode you will find that the linux-driver uses a very much
enhanced approach to program the various msp34xx chipset variants,
which is also found in the specs for these chips.
This is a port of the Linux MSP34xx code, written by Gerd Knorr
<kraxel@bytesex.org>, who agreed to re-release his code under a
BSD license for this port.
A new config option "BKTR_NEW_MSP34XX_DRIVER" is added, which is required
to enable the new driver. Otherwise the old code is used.
The msp34xx.c file is diff-reduced to the linux-driver to make later
modifications easier, thus it doesn't follow style(9) in most cases.

- Move isa/ppc* to sys/dev/ppc (repo-copy)
- Add an attachment method to ppc for puc
- In puc we need to walk the chain of parents.
Still to do, is to make ppc(4) & puc(4) work on other platforms. Testers
wanted.

Lint probably still needs fixing, as do a couple of other drivers
that have broken recently and not been noticed.
set an initial value. This is aimed at getting us closer to being able to
turn -Werror back on and we can adjust the settings later on. Yes, we
could turn off -Wno-inline instead, but that would hide the effect of
gcc's bogo-estimator ignoring inline (either rightly or wrongly).
it attaches to all existing NATM network interfaces in the system
and creates a HARP physical interface for each of them. This allows
us to use the same set of ATM drivers for all ATM stuff. It is
possible to use the same interface for HARP, NATM and netgraph at the
same time.
is not natural and needlessly exposes a lot of dirty laundry.
Move private interfaces between the two from swap_pager.h to swap_pager.c
and staticize as much as possible.
No functional change.
with a ProATM-155 and an IDT evaluation board and should also work
with a ProATM-25 (it seems to work at least, I cannot really measure
what the card emits). The driver has been tested on i386 and sparc64,
but should work an other archs also. It supports UBR, CBR, ABR and VBR;
AAL0, AAL5 and AALraw. As an additional feature VCI/VPI 0/0 can be
opened for receiving in AALraw mode and receives all cells not claimed
by other open VCs (even cells with invalid GFC, VPI and VCI fields and
OAM cells).
Thanks to Christian Bucari from ProSum for lending two cards and answering
my questions.
