1) check va before clearing the page clean flag. Not doing so was
causing the vnode pager error 5 messages when paging from
NFS. (pmap.c)
2) put back interrupt protection in idle_loop. Bruce didn't think
it was necessary, John insists that it is (and I agree). (swtch.s)
3) various improvements to the clustering code (vm_machdep.c). It's
now enabled/used by default.
4) bad disk blocks are now handled properly when doing clustered IOs.
(wd.c, vm_machdep.c)
5) bogus bad block handling fixed in wd.c.
6) algorithm improvements to the pageout/pagescan daemons. It's amazing
how well 4MB machines work now.
1) Removed all instances of disable_intr()/enable_intr() and changed
them back to splimp/splx. The previous method was done to improve
the performance, but Bruces recent changes to inline spl* have
made this unnecessary.
2) Cleaned up vm_machdep.c considerably. Probably fixed a few bugs, too.
3) Added a new mechanism for collecting page statistics - now done by
a new system process "pagescan". Previously this was done by the
pageout daemon, but this proved to be impractical.
4) Improved the page usage statistics gathering mechanism - performance is
much improved in small memory machines.
5) Modified mbuf.h to enable the support for an external free routine when
using mbuf clusters. Added appropriate glue in various places to
allow this to work.
6) Adapted a suggested change to the NFS code from Yuval Yurom to take
advantage of #5.
7) Added fault/swap statistics support.
finally have the f**king documentation!):
1) Changed all the numeric register offsets to symbolic ones (it should
have been this way originally).
2) If 16 bit, disable the shared memory when not using it. Apparantly
switching between 8/16bit mode makes the Ultra unhappy unless
this is done (i.e. it trashes the bus).
- ansi prototypes in lpt.c
- a bit of tidying in lpt.c
- ioctl in lpt.c for switching between polling and using interrupts
- added lpt.h - needed for ioctl to allow switching between polling
and interrupt-driven modes.
1) fixed some bugs related to the bounce buffer code
2) vnode pager now supports clustered pageouts
3) experimental code for clustering all I/O via a new "cldisksort"
4) added >16MB check to Bustek driver
5) made some experimental algorithmic changes to the pageout daemon
6) fixed bugs in truncating mapped files (esp when mapped via NFS)
7) reorganized vnode pager I/O code
class of locale data, but could be extended to handle other locale
classes, as well as message catalogues and other non-locale i18n
support.
I have left the old _ctype_ array in place, and moved the ctype.h
header to octype.h, so that existing shared binaries will still be
able to find and use it as they require.
See /usr/src/share/locale for information on how to create new locale
data files (eventually this procedure will be improved). I'd like to
have a family of locale files for various countries, languages, and
character sets, so please contribute some.
This code was originally written by Paul Borman and contributed to
4.4; I did the integration, and have somewhat tested it. crt0.c
probably ought to call setlocale() if it doesn't already, but I'd like
for people to create some locale files and try things manually first
before I make every program do this.
---
This list of changes is in approximately chronological order (oldest first).
o Many cosmetic changes - renamed comintr1 -> siointr1, moved
things around and fixed whitespace.
o Reduced SLIP latency (FRAME_END hack) from 20-30 ms to 16 ms
at 115200 bps (you won't notice the average 10 ms improvement
on slow lines). ppp seems to use only counted transfers so
there's no similar hack available. It's too hard for the
driver to know the count.
o Temporary #ifdefs for new and old interrupt handling
(OLD_INTERRUPT_HANDLING decided by setsofttty() not being
externally defined.
o Don't test for the IIR_NOPEND bit being set - test for the
non-fifo part of the iir equalling it like the docs say to.
States with other IIR_NOPEND set in combination with the
other iir bits are undefined. The docs may be stupid - the
old test would not have broken when the fifo bits were
introduced.
o Noted more problems with DTR wait.
o Rewrote console stuff. Still some initialization and state
preservation problems. Same for kgdb stuff. The driver
doesn't do anything about the console close bug. It needs
to be fixed entirely in i386/cons.c. I like chmr's version
where the the console driver revectors the device open and
close routines.
o Temporary (?) #ifdefs for references to tty buffers.
o Noted further things to do in (2 comments about 3 places) for
phk's change to not touch RTS unless it is being used for flow
control.
o Temporary #ifdefs for timestamp handling. It needs fixing.
The microtime() call breaks the first rule of writing fast
interrupt handlers: NO calls to functions that might do slow
and bad things. microtime() enables interrupts. This turns
out to be only moderately harmful. Also, I want the timestamp
copy outside of the normal interrupt handler.
o Don't init com->tp early for the !DONT_MALLOC_TTYS case -
both sides are NULL.
o Worry about com->tp == NULL in siopoll. I don't see how you
survived the (incc <= 0 || !(tp->state & TS_ISOPEN)) test.
Perhaps early sttys or comcontrols set up the tp's for _all_
the ports before this code is reached.
list of changes, I've made the following additional changes:
1) i386/include/ipl.h renamed to spl.h as the name conflicts with the
file of the same name in i386/isa/ipl.h.
2) changed all use of *mask (i.e. netmask, biomask, ttymask, etc) to
*_imask (net_imask, etc).
3) changed vestige of splnet use in if_is to splimp.
4) got rid of "impmask" completely (Bruce had gotten rid of netmask),
and are now using net_imask instead.
5) dozens of minor cruft to glue in Bruce's changes.
These require changes I made to config(8) as well, and thus it must
be rebuilt.
-DG
from Bruce Evans:
sio:
o No diff is supplied. Remove the define of setsofttty(). I hope
that is enough.
*.s:
o i386/isa/debug.h no longer exists. The event counters became too
much trouble to maintain. All function call entry and exception
entry counters can be recovered by using profiling kernel (the new
profiling supports all entry points; however, it is too slow to
leave enabled all the time; it also). Only BDBTRAP() from debug.h
is now used. That is moved to exception.s. It might be worth
preserving SHOW_BITS() and calling it from _mcount() (if enabled).
o T_ASTFLT is now only set just before calling trap().
o All exception handlers set SWI_AST_MASK in cpl as soon as possible
after entry and arrange for _doreti to restore it atomically with
exiting. It is not possible to set it atomically with entering
the kernel, so it must be checked against the user mode bits in
the trap frame before committing to using it. There is no place
to store the old value of cpl for syscalls or traps, so there are
some complications restoring it.
Profiling stuff (mostly in *.s):
o Changes to kern/subr_mcount.c, gcc and gprof are not supplied yet.
o All interesting labels `foo' are renamed `_foo' and all
uninteresting labels `_bar' are renamed `bar'. A small change
to gprof allows ignoring labels not starting with underscores.
o MCOUNT_LABEL() is to provide names for counters for times spent
in exception handlers.
o FAKE_MCOUNT() is a version of MCOUNT() suitable for exception
handlers. Its arg is the pc where the exception occurred. The
new mcount() pretends that this was a call from that pc to a
suitable MCOUNT_LABEL().
o MEXITCOUNT is to turn off any timer started by MCOUNT().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/exception.s:
o The non-BDB BPTTRAP() macros were doing a sti even when interrupts
were disabled when the trap occurred. The sti (fixed) sti is
actually a no-op unless you have my changes to machdep.c that make
the debugger trap gates interrupt gates, but fixing that would
make the ifdefs messier. ddb seems to be unharmed by both
interrupts always disabled and always enabled (I had the branch in
the fix back to front for some time :-().
o There is no known pushal bug.
o tf_err can be left as garbage for syscalls.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/locore.s:
o Fix and update BDE_DEBUGGER support.
o ENTRY(btext) before initialization was dangerous.
o Warm boot shot was longer than intended.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/machdep.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. It's what I'm using, but may require
other changes.
Use the following:
o Remove aston() and setsoftclock().
Maybe use the following:
o No netisr.h.
o Spelling fix.
o Delay to read the Rebooting message.
o Fix for vm system unmapping a reduced area of memory
after bounds_check_with_label() reduces the size of
a physical i/o for a partition boundary. A similar
fix is required in kern_physio.c.
o Correct use of __CONCAT. It never worked here for non-
ANSI cpp's. Is it time to drop support for non-ANSI?
o gdt_segs init. 0xffffffffUL is bogus because ssd_limit
is not 32 bits. The replacement may have the same
value :-), but is more natural.
o physmem was one page too low. Confusing variable names.
Don't use the following:
o Better numbers of buffers. Each 8K page requires up to
16 buffer headers. On my system, this results in 5576
buffers containing [up to] 2854912 bytes of memory.
The usual allocation of about 384 buffers only holds
192K of disk if you use it on an fs with a block size
of 512.
o gdt changes for bdb.
o *TGT -> *IDT changes for bdb.
o #ifdefed changes for bdb.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/microtime.s:
o Use the correct asm macros. I think asm.h was copied from Mach
just for microtime and isn't used now. It certainly doesn't
belong in <sys>. Various macros are also duplicated in
sys/i386/boot.h and libc/i386/*.h.
o Don't switch to and from the IRR; it is guaranteed to be selected
(default after ICU init and explicitly selected in isa.c too, and
never changed until the old microtime clobbered it).
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/support.s:
o Non-essential changes (none related to spls or profiling).
o Removed slow loads of %gs again. The LDT support may require
not relying on %gs, but loading it is not the way to fix it!
Some places (copyin ...) forgot to load it. Loading it clobbers
the user %gs. trap() still loads it after certain types of
faults so that fuword() etc can rely on it without loading it
explicitly. Exception handlers don't restore it. If we want
to preserve the user %gs, then the fastest method is to not
touch it except for context switches. Comparing with
VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS and branching takes only 2 or 4 cycles on
a 486, while loading %gs takes 9 cycles and using it takes
another.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/swtch.s:
o Move spl0() outside of idle loop.
o Remove cli/sti from idle loop. sw1 does a cli, and in the
unlikely event of an interrupt occurring and whichqs becoming
zero, sw1 will just jump back to _idle.
o There's no spl0() function in asm any more, so use splz().
o swtch() doesn't need to be superaligned, at least with the
new mcounting.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
o Removed astoff().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/trap.c:
o The decentralized extern decls were inconsistent, of course.
o Fixed typo MATH_EMULTATE in comments. */
o Removed unused variables.
o Old netmask is now impmask; print it instead. Perhaps we
should print some of the new masks.
o BTW, trap() should not print anything for normal debugger
traps.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/asmacros.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. Just use some of the null macros
as necessary.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpu.h:
o CLKF_BASEPRI() changes since cpl == SWI_AST_MASK is now normal
while the kernel is running.
o Don't use var++ to set boolean variables. It fails after a mere
4G times :-) and is slower than storing a constant on [3-4]86s.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpufunc.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the include of
<machine/ipl.h>. Unfortunately, <machine/ipl.h> is needed by
almost everything for the inlines.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/ipl.h:
o New file. Defines spl inlines and SWI macros and declares most
variables related to hard and soft interrupt masks.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.h:
o Moved definitions to <machine/ipl.h>
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.s:
o Software interrupts (SWIs) and delayed hardware interrupts (HWIs)
are now handled uniformally, and dispatching them from splx() is
more like dispatching them from _doreti. The dispatcher is
essentially *(handler[ffs(ipending & ~cpl)]().
o More care (not quite enough) is taken to avoid unbounded nesting
of interrupts.
o The interface to softclock() is changed so that a trap frame is
not required.
o Fast interrupt handlers are now handled more uniformally.
Configuration is still too early (new handlers would require
bits in <machine/ipl.h> and functions to vector.s).
o splnnn() and splx() are no longer here; they are inline functions
(could be macros for other compilers). splz() is the nontrivial
part of the old splx().
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/ipl.h
o New file. Supposed to have only bus-dependent stuff. Perhaps
the h/w masks should be declared here.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need only things involving
*mask and *MASK and comments about them. netmask is now a pure
software mask. It works like the softclock mask.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/vector.s:
o Reorganize AUTO_EOI* macros.
o Option FAST_INTR_HANDLER_USERS_ES for people who don't trust
fastintr handlers.
o fastintr handlers need to metamorphose into ordinary interrupt
handlers if their SWI bit has become set. Previously, sio had
unintended latency for handling output completions and input
of SLIP framing characters because this was not done.
/usr/src/sys/net/netisr.h:
o The machine-dependent stuff is now imported from <machine/ipl.h>.
/usr/src/sys/sys/systm.h
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the different
splx() prototype. The spl*() prototypes are duplicated as
inlines in <machine/ipl.h> but they need to be duplicated here
in case there are no inlines. I sent systm.h and cpufunc.h
to Garrett. We agree that spl0 should be replaced by splnone
and not the other way around like I've done.
/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_clock.c
o splsoftclock() now lowers cpl so the direct call to softclock()
works as intended.
o softclock() interface changed to avoid passing the whole frame
(some machines may need another change for profile_tick()).
o profiling renamed _profiling to avoid ANSI namespace pollution.
(I had to improve the mcount() interface and may as well fix it.)
The GUPROF variant doesn't actually reference profiling here,
but the 'U' in GUPROF should mean to select the microtimer
mcount() and not change the interface.
/dev/mcd0a instead of /dev/mcd0d. This is more conforming to the /dev/cd0a
for the SCSI cdrom drives. It breaks the convention d the whole drive.
But the question is, do we really need partitions on cdrom drives ?
put vers.o at the end of the loader line. We are simply jumping in the
moment into the first location of the text segment in 386bsd. So the
linking order is very important :-). With the addition of the const
types in newvers.sh we jumped into them. I have experimented with an
entry point specification, but was unsuccessfull. Someone else should
look at this.
devices.i386:
files.i386:
Added entries for a Sony cdrom driver.
1) tty.c: gather all the info about the processes before calling ttyprintf
(which may block).
2) syscons.c: handle asynchronous output properly (data structures may
be corrupted otherwise).
Example:
Application use port cua01
Getty open ttyd1 (allocates rawq,outq,etc) and waits while application
done
Application quits, sioclose issued, ttyfree issued (getty calls revoke)
Getty awakes and goes to panic into initrb (NULL rawq)
1) A new mechanism has been added to prevent pages from being paged
out called "vm_page_hold". Similar to vm_page_wire, but
much lower overhead.
2) Scheduling algorithm has been changed to improve interactive
performance.
3) Paging algorithm improved.
4) Some vnode and swap pager bugs fixed.
now HUPCL set only in bidir case for callin lines
(this prevents set HUPCL on mouse)
comhardclose:
in addition to HUPCL case now DTR dropped for bidir case
if line was active in and no carrier present now.
(this prevents DTR sleep on mouse)
Subject: Re: Bugs with floppy drives

The transfer speed was only set in the retry after error, not when
switching drives.
Eliminates vm_fault overhead on process startup and
mmap referenced data for in-memory pages.
(process startup time using in-memory segments *much* faster)
2) Even more efficient pmap code. Code partially cleaned up.
More comments yet to follow.
(generally more efficient pte management)
3) Pageout clustering ( in addition to the FreeBSD V1.1 pagein
clustering.)
(much faster paging performance on non-write behind disk
subsystems, slightly faster performance on other systems.)
4) Slightly changed vm_pageout code for more efficiency and
better statistics. Also, resist swapout a little more.
(less likely to pageout a recently used page)
5) Slight improvement to the page table page trap efficiency.
(generally faster system VM fault performance)
6) Defer creation of unnamed anonymous regions pager until needed.
(speeds up shared memory bss creation)
7) Remove possible deadlock from swap_pager initialization.
8) Enhanced procfs to provide "vminfo" about vm objects and user
pmaps.
9) Increased MCLSHIFT/MCLBYTES from 2K to 4K to improve net &
socket performance and to prepare for things to come.

it still looks a little suspicious that so many of the status codes are missing
so I'm not going to adopt all of the existing ones yet. Try to be more
descriptive in the use of hex constants.
Changes _only_ take effect if `options LAPTOP' is set.
Note: This one is distinctly dodgy. When my IDE drive spins back up from sleep
mode, it generates this `extra interrupt' condition by spinning back up and
generating an intr, though without any particular action required. This
message coming out every time is rather annoying, and thus disabled.
However, what I'm not at all sure of is whether or not all IDE drives will
behave in the same way, or if perhaps it needs to be done in a more complicated
fashion by detecting this more involved "I've spun up and am just saying hi"
condition. This is a simple change and easy to back out/ammend if anybody has
any better ideas.
hack in the moment for testing purposes and to get the drive going
again.
0x20 means empty drive.
0x30 means closed drive with CDROM inserted.
0x80 means drive pulled out, but door closed.
0xa0 means drive pulled out and door open.
Luckily none of these values are the same as that reported for Ethernet
cards ( 0 for WD8003E, 0x40 for WD8013EPC, 0x60 for NE2000).
The bad part is, the probe code gets the WD8003E so hosed, that it is
no longer usable after it. No problem with the WD8013EPC.
my previous fix too (using wdp_heads controller value) and check
0 heads case too.
Other fixes from Bruce:
2) Fix dk_timeout from 2 to about 4 seconds.
3) wdcontrol not retried on internal error.
4) wdwait return check changed ( "!=0" to "<0" into wdsetctlr,
"<0" to "!=0" into wdgetctlr).
This inetrface should be used from now on.
pseudo device pty xx still keeps its meaning: a maximum of
xx ptys is allowed.
A ringbuffer is now 2040 bytes long, per Garrett Wollman's request.
The changes are inspired by the way NetBSD did it (thanks for that!),
though I made it slihghtly different, including the interface so
at least 75% of the allocated space is deallocated when the tty is
closed.
Note further that it is easy to modify the ringbuffer length runtime.
This will have to wait untill some later date...

Subject: cache botch in bootstrap
Date: Sun, 20 Feb 94 18:14:35 +1100
The cache in the bootstrap loader didn't allow for the device changing.
This caused surprisingly little trouble - the cache is only for a single
track (or part of a track), and the first access to a new device is
always for an early sector, so there is no problem unless the last access
to the old device was for an early sector. I saw the problem on a system
with BSD on wd1 and no label on wd0. Everything worked if the the device
name wd(1,a) was specified before the default of wd(0,a) was tried, but
when the default was tried, it failed on the first sector because there
was no label, and then the first sector on wd0 was always used instead
of the first sector on wd1, so there was apparently no label on wd1
either.

Subject: Bugfix for SB16 with DSP version 4 and above
No description sent, but it appears to fix a major number problem
with certain models of the SB16.
Small hack, if heads > 16, output a warning and then set the head
count to 16. This stops the infinite loop on this error and allows
people to later fix the DOS parameter table later with fdisk.
run Exabyte 8505 on 1742's. This may not be the final solution, but it
makes it work. It may be better to change the DELAY(10) to DELAY(30)
inside the loop instead of increasing the loop count from 100 to 300.
Subject: Bug Fix for ft.c - please commit
Date: Mon, 14 Feb 94 10:22:54 CST
This fixes a bug where the system can crash if the tape is used
after the floppy has been used.
a pv chain was being traversed while interrupts were
fully enabled in pmap_remove_all ... this is bogus, and
has been fixed in pmap.c. (sorry for adding the splimp)
Description:
The integer overflow instruction (into) and the interrupt instruction with
value 4 (int #4) both give rise to SIGBUS signals rather than SIGFPE. The
problem is that overflow is a trap not a fault (unlike the BOUND instruction).
When the keyboard is probed, the LED's blink quickly and
"Keyboard reset failed" is printed on the console. The
init routine keeps trying endlessly with the same behavior
as above.
I got the latest -current sup sources (06-Feb-94 12:00 GMT) to work using the

this code needed in any case.
Subject: syscons-1.3
Date: Sat, 29 Jan 94 23:33:50 MET
But here is the (hopefully) final syscons-1.3....
....
I've changed sgetc so it works as the pccons parallel
(it now uses a scgetc internally).
[
There were a couple changes that Bruce Evans sent me that were applied
to this version along with some changes that S'ren didn't incorporate
into the final version. There will be only minor changes if anything
from this version to his final release.
]
o merged and fixed timeout code from sos.
o merged DOS partition support from sos.
o fixed "extra" interrupts.
o check if malloc retuns NULL :-(.
o print drive size as in NetBSD
o after an error, return the residual count, not 0.
o give up early for > 16 heads.
o cleaned up the old-drive detection in wdgetctlr().
o rewrote wddump(). I'd been putting this off because
I'd had the dump disabled since 0.0 and had no idea
if even the standard version worked. It didn't:
(0) syscons' sgetc() interface broke some keyboard
stuff.
(1) CADDR1 is mapped using pmap() and pmap got a NULL
pointer trap (at least when I got to wddump() using
call diediedie from ddb) because the pte for CADDR1
is only supposed to be hacked on directly (e.g. in
physcopyseg()).
(2) bad144 handling was not done.
(3) it was slooow (3600 sectors/minute) because my
controller doesn't cache writes.
o miscellaneous other cleanups, e.g., removed scattered
patchkit/terry dates.
o lots of reformatting.
To be done:
o Merge/fix TIH/NetBSD bad144 code (doesn't belong in any
particular driver. Why aren't we using i386/dkbad.c?).
o Merge/fix Dyson/NetBSD clustering code (large parts
should be shared).
o Fix/extend the partition in use bits. Support extended
partitions. This should be shared by all disk drivers. Swap
to a DOS partition so that the swap space can be shared with
linux.
o Don't use polling except for initialization. Need to
reorganise the state machine. Then "extra" interrupts
shouldn't happen (except maybe one for initialization).
o Fix disklabel, boot and driver inconsistencies with
bad144 in standard versions.
o Look at latest linux clustering methods. Our disksort()
gets in the way of clustering.
o cleaned up the ATA changes (needs more work. I think
the ATA specs say that the only thing really wrong with
the original version of wx is that there was no test
for drive-ready before some commands. 400 nsec delay
suffices for almost everything and 400 nsec delay is
usually "free").
netmask or impmask.
2) Fixes from Bruce:
o Changed name of schedsoftcom() to setsofttty() to match
setsoftclock()
o Bool_t isn't used.
o tx_fifo_size is 1 for chips without fifos, 16 for 16550's, to
help to output more efficiently for 16550's (LSR_TXRDY means
that the fifo is empty, not that it has space for one char).
o Changed name of softsio1() to siopoll() and merged compoll()
into siopoll().
o The probe forgot to clear com_mcr after it failed. This is
harmful for 4 single serial ports on 2 interrupts. It makes
partial misconfigurations worse.
o Don't bother initializing static variables that are 0 (bidir
stuff).
o Only initialize t_oflag to TTYDEF_OFLAG if unit == COMCONSOLE,
not if COMCONSOLE is defined.
o Don't call siointr() from comparam() if there is no output in
progress. For the call from sioopen(), there's no output in
progress, and siointr() often saw silo overflows for stale
input because it was called before sioopen() discarded the
input.
o Let ttselect() do the work for select(), so that the fixes for
ttselect() don't have to be duplicated in zillions of drivers.
Yes, I know that IFADDR ioctl is supposed to be deprecated... Note
that the patch was modified by me to fit better into the driver. -DG
...
While porting CAP to 386bsd/pk0.2.4 and now to FreeBSD Release 1.0
I found a couple of bugs associated with the packet filter. Here
are the fixes. I'm posting them here because they apply to
FreeBSD and 386bsd/pk0.2.4 and possibly to other *BSD.
The first occurs when using the packet filter to write raw
ethernet packets. The header consisting of the sender and
destination addresses and the protocol is removed and later
added back on, but with the byte order of the protocol reversed.
The fix ensures that the byte order in the protocol field is
swapped when it is removed.
The second fix ensures that SIOCGIFADDR works for BPF as claimed
in the man pages, by adding it to the ed driver. Similar fixes
will be needed for other ethernet drivers.

on it. The sio driver always enables the fifo, which is a bad thing
for mice and X. The mouse is jerky and hard to use. The simple thing
is be to treat one of the ports as a non-fifo'ed UART, and I use the
flags option in my config file.
So, my config file has:
device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 flags 0x2 vector siointr
device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 vector siointr
(patch deleted)
following is a summary:
1) increased object cache back up to a more reasonable value.
2) removed old & bogus cruft from machdep.c (clearseg, copyseg,
physcopyseg, etc).
3) inlined many functions in pmap.c
4) changed "load_cr3(rcr3())" into tlbflush() and made tlbflush inline
assembly.
5) changed the way that modified pages are tracked - now vm_page struct
is kept updated directly - no more scanning page tables.
6) removed lots of unnecessary spl's
7) removed old unused functions from pmap.c
8) removed all use of page_size, page_shift, page_mask variables - replaced
with PAGE_ constants.
9) moved trunc/round_page, atop, ptoa, out of vm_param.h and into i386/
include/param.h, and optimized them.
10) numerous changes to sys/vm/ swap_pager, vnode_pager, pageout, fault
code to improve performance. LRU algorithm modified to be more
effective, read ahead/behind values tuned for better performance,
etc, etc...
Cuddle { braces up where possible on if statements
Add missing splx(s) calls before some returns.
Remove extra semicolon that was keeping uha_init from returning
before the timeout occured. This should speed probing up quite
a bit!
0) FreeBSD additional include files additions
1) Rod's arpacom changes
2) Function type and return code cleanup, and all functions have correct
casting to the correct data types
3) Bugfix where driver would not function due to missing structure not
given a value.
4) General cleanup. (Theo did a lot already, I just did some more)
Removed com port comments, since we are about to depricate the driver.
Fix several plaes in LINT where people have been cutting and pasting using
xterms :-(
the device close routine. This works because the device close calls
the line discipline close (which only flushes the output buffers) and
the ttyclose() routine, which does little of nothing except screw with
the session and process group fields (which is what was causing all
the problems).

As reported on the -bugs list by some one, and confirmed by Julian:
> I increased AHA_RESET_TIMEOUT in aha1542.c from 1000 to 10000
> and now my 1542C is found everytime.
problem with some chipsets (UMC) remapping the 'hole' memory even when
you've got 16MB. People were led to believe that since there was only
16MB of memory in the machine, that they were okay wrt the ISA DMA
limit. This hack simply causes the extra memory to be ignored if it
appears around the 16MB limit.
* Removed pmap_is_wired
* added extra cli/sti protection in idle (swtch.s)
* slight code improvement in trap.c
* added lots of comments
* improved paging and other algorithms in VM system
Changed the output of the isa probe routine, that only devices, that
have an IO address and are smaller than 0x100 to be on the motherboard.
The seagate SCSI adapter is an example of a card, that doesn't have
an IO address and works only memory mapped.
Choose older MULTIPORT version, because lastest bde version
not worked.
Don't force HUPCL for bidirectional case.
From bde:
Use bit (1 << (16 + 4)) in schedsoftcom() to avoid clash with
non-serial h/w on IRQ4.
Allow FIFO_TRIGGER in config.
Clear com->mcr_image when clearing mcr for init of 4port. The
usual value MCR_IENABLE should have broken 4ports unless
something happened to clear it later.
Turn off interrupts as well as DTR after an error waiting for
carrier (bidir dialin case).
Drain fifo more carefully.
Don't hang up if debugging.
Rearrange siointr() -> siointr1() for multiport case for speed,
lower latency and clarity.
Use suser() to check perms.
Provide missing splx() after failed perms checks.
c_ispeed == 0 means c_ispeed = c_ospeed (POSIX).
Set parameters (except speed) for c_ospeed == 0 as well as
hanging up.
Better initialization for console (fifo stuff...).
Misc. cleanups.
Fix dead hang if modem power is off.
problems in the moment are stray intr's in the ifconfig up/down.
No way to select all three interfaces on a combo card with
AUI/BNC/UTP interfaces and the performance doesn't look good.
Only tested with a ISA AUI/BNC card yet.
Added it to the list of known boards and put it into the the list for
the mailbox unlock. Maybe all board-ids over 0x42 should be in the
mailbox unlock part ?
enough tests to be considered more stable than current driver.
Lots of work by Bruce, David G., and Guido have gone into this version, and
more is to come in the future.
Support for multiple controllers is in, but doesn't work correctly with
different controllers (IDE AND MFM), but multiple alike controllers appears
to work.
Most of the stray interrupts problems should be fixed, although you will
get a couple 'extra interrupts' when disklabeling and on startup.

was necessary to steal a netisr bit from another protocol; I took the one for
PF_DATAKIT (no great loss).
a binary link-kit. Make all non-optional options (pagers, procfs) standard,
and update LINT to reflect new symtab requirements.
NB: -Wtraditional will henceforth be forgotten. This editing pass was
primarily intended to detect any constructions where the old code might
have been relying on traditional C semantics or syntax. These were all
fixed, and the result of fixing some of them means that -Wall is now a
realistic possibility within a few weeks.
Entries for 800 and 820 fixed.
From vak@kiae.su:
incorporate Joerg Wunsch formatting code
correct handle timeouted operations
fixed entry for 720 media
GAP values changed suitable for possible format code addition.
Read/write GAP always 2 now.
Interleave parameter added for possible format code addition.
Many logical formats added.
720K physical drive added.

This is the streamer tape driver for 386bsd and FreeBSD, which
supports Wangtek and Archive compatible QIC-02/QIC-36 controllers.
It was developed as a replacement of the old Wangtek tape driver from CMU.
In comparison with the CMU driver, this version has the following enhancements:
1) Support for Archive SC402 and SC499 tape controllers added.
2) Support for up to three tape controllers on the same machine.
3) Support for BSD-style ioctls MTIOCGET, MTIOCTOP.
Mt command now works adequately with this driver.
2) Asynchronous REWIND and FSF operations, close() will not wait
until they finish. The next open() will wait for it instead.
4) Use of WTQICMD ioctl is limited to ERASE and RETENS operations.
This prevents the user from locking the tape driver by strange
tape operations.
5) Tape density switching added.
6) The status of the process, blocked on the tape operation,
is displayed at the WCHAN column of the `ps' command as:
wtread reading data from the tape
wtwrite writing data to the tape
wtrfm reading the tape marker
wtwfm writing the tape marker
wtrew rewinding the tape
wterase doing WTQICMD ERASE operation
wtretens doing WTQICMD RETENS operation
wtorew doing MTIOCTOP REW/OFFL operation
wtorfm doing MTIOCTOP FSF operation
wtowfm doing MTIOCTOP WEOF operation
7) It's possible to use the tape with "default density",
useful for devices which don't support density switching
or do automatic format determination.
8) Some controllers support only 1024 block length.
Setting WT_BSIZE bit in device minor number turns on this mode.
Minor number structure:
0bfffuuu
Fields:
uuu - Unit number. It's possible to install
up to three tape controllers on the same machine,
using DRQs 1..3. Hence, unit number can lie
in range 0..2.
fff - Tape format number:
0 - /dev/rwt0 - default density (auto select)
1 - /dev/rwt0a - QIC 11 (obsolete)
2 - /dev/rwt0b - QIC 24 (60 megabytes)
3 - /dev/rwt0c - QIC 120 (120 megabytes)
4 - /dev/rwt0d - QIC 150 (150 megabytes)
5 - /dev/rwt0e - QIC 300 (300 megabytes?)
6 - /dev/rwt0f - QIC 600 (600 megabytes?)
b - Long block size flag. With this bit set,
the driver will perform all i/o operations
with the controller using 1024-byte
blocks, instead of 512 ones.
Some controllers need it (CMS for example).
If you Wangtek controller does not stream well,
you can try to use /dev/rWt0 device instead
of /dev/rwt0 (uncomment needed lines in /dev/MAKEDEV
to create it).
Block interface (writing blocks less than 2048 bytes) is not functioning
pwoperly. Use raw interface instead.

John Dyson to make it reliably work under FreeBSD.
2) Added and enabled PROCFS in the GENERICxx and LINT kernels.
3) New execve() from me. Still work to be done here, but this version
works well and is needed before other changes can be made. For
a description of the design behind this, see freebsd-arch or
ask me.
4) Rewrote stack fault code; made user stack VM grow as needed rather
than all up front; improves performance a little and reduces
process memory requirements.
5) Incorporated fix from Gene Stark to fault/wire a user page table
page to fix a problem in copyout. This is a temporary fix and
is not appropriate for pageable page tables. For a description
of the problem, see Gene's post to the freebsd-hackers mailing
list.
6) Tighten up vm_page struct to reduce memory requirements for it. ifdef
pager page lock code as it's not being used currently.
7) Introduced new element to vmspace struct - vm_minsaddr; initial
(minimum) stack address. Compliment to vm_maxsaddr.
8) Added a panic if the allocation for process u-pages fails.
9) Improve performance and accuracy of kernel profiling by putting in
a little inline assembly instead of spl().
10) Made serial console with sio driver work. Still has problems with
serial input, but is almost useable.
11) Added -Bstatic to SYSTEM_LD in Makefile.i386 so that kernels will
build properly with the new ld.
added to probe.
2) Force CLOCAL=on for outgoing ports and CLOCAL=off for
incoming ports into open in bidirectional case.
3) Add DELAY after writing to com_ier for fifo drain into probe.
The following patch adds the addr argument to signal handlers.
The kernel with the patch is no more and no less in compliance or in
violation of POSIX and ANSI C than the kernel before the patch.
The added functionality this addr argument provides is quite useful. It
enables an entire class of algorithms which use mprotect to trace memory
references. Beside garbage collectors, I have heard of this technique being
applied to debuggers and profilers. The only benchmarking I've performed is
using akcl to compile maxima: without the kernel patch, it takes 7 hours to
compile maxima, while with stratified garbage collection, it only takes 50
minutes.
Basically, I can't think of a reason not to add the addr argument and there
is a compelling need for it.
If you find the patch acceptable, please let me know so I can send my
FreeBSD akcl config files to wfs for inclusion in the core akcl release.
The old 386BSD config files there won't work on either NetBSD or FreeBSD.

Changes between EPSILON and RELEASE of FreeBSD have again caused
the kernel to not see my floppy disk drives. I don't know what happened,
'cause I don't see any changes to fd.c, but here is an old fix that
I have applied to the probe routine which will solve the problem (at
least for me). Since this is a rather brute-force solution - I understand
if you want to ignore it...

Subject: Page fault in PTE area fails in copyout
Index: sys/i386/i386/trap.c FreeBSD-1.0.2
Description:
Reading files of several megabytes into Emacs, or many small
files all at once, would fail with "IO error - bad address".
Repeat-By:
The bug can be exercised by a test program that malloc()'s
a 5MB chunk of memory, and then, without accessing the memory
first, filling it with data from a file using read().
(I read 64k chunks from /dev/wd0d into successive 64k regions
of the 5MB chunk.) The read() will fail with EFAULT at the first
virtual address boundary that is a multiple of 0x400000.
Fix:
The problem was code in sys/i386/i386/trap.c that tries to
figure out what kind of trap occurred and to handle it appropriately.
It was interpreting any page fault with virtual address
>= vm->vm_maxsaddr as being a user stack segment fault.
In fact, addresses >= USRSTACK are in the user structure/PTE area,
and if they are handled as stack faults, the proper PTE will
not be paged in when it is supposed to be. This situation comes
up in copyout() and copyoutstr(), if PTE's are accessed for the
first time ever. The page fault on accessing the nonexistent PTE
is mishandled as a stack fault, and then the fault that occurs on
the subsequent access to the page itself causes copyout to fail
with EFAULT.

Subject: IDE-disk hangs - solution/patches NetBSD/FreeBSD
Summary: fixes for lost interrupts with IDE disks
Keywords: hanging-disk, IDE-disk, lost-interrupt
Due to "popular" demand I'm posting these patches to NetBSD/FreeBSD
instead of mailing them around the world :-)
As many have found out there is a problem when using IDE disks on
FreeBSD. Following is a patch that fixes the problem with lost intterrupts.
Both fixes is based on a patch posted here some month ago by
Stefan Behrens?? (sorry I've lost the original article). But anyway it
works (for me :-).
Basically it does a timeout on lost interrupts, starting the operation
again and logging and error message on the console.
It additionally makes the allready present while loop timeouts
independent of CPU speed, and adds minor numbers for easy access to
dos partitions.

Some day soon #ifdef BDB all of Bruces debugger code.
when the machine panics.
i386/i386/locore.s:
1) got rid of most .set directives that were being used like
#define's, and replaced them with appropriate #define's in
the appropriate header files (accessed via genassym).
2) added comments to header inclusions and global definitions,
and global variables
3) replaced some hardcoded constants with cpp defines (such as
PDESIZE and others)
4) aligned all comments to the same column to make them easier to
read
5) moved macro definitions for ENTRY, ALIGN, NOP, etc. to
/sys/i386/include/asmacros.h
6) added #ifdef BDE_DEBUGGER around all of Bruce's debugger code
7) added new global '_KERNend' to store last location+1 of kernel
8) cleaned up zeroing of bss so that only bss is zeroed
9) fix zeroing of page tables so that it really does zero them all
- not just if they follow the bss.
10) rewrote page table initialization code so that 1) works correctly
and 2) write protects the kernel text by default
11) properly initialize the kernel page directory, upages, p0stack PT,
and page tables. The previous scheme was more than a bit
screwy.
12) change allocation of virtual area of IO hole so that it is
fixed at KERNBASE + 0xa0000. The previous scheme put it
right after the kernel page tables and then later expected
it to be at KERNBASE +0xa0000
13) change multiple bogus settings of user read/write of various
areas of kernel VM - including the IO hole; we should never
be accessing the IO hole in user mode through the kernel
page tables
14) split kernel support routines such as bcopy, bzero, copyin,
copyout, etc. into a seperate file 'support.s'
15) split swtch and related routines into a seperate 'swtch.s'
16) split routines related to traps, syscalls, and interrupts
into a seperate file 'exception.s'
17) remove some unused global variables from locore that got
inserted by Garrett when he pulled them out of some .h
files.
i386/isa/icu.s:
1) clean up global variable declarations
2) move in declaration of astpending and netisr
i386/i386/pmap.c:
1) fix calculation of virtual_avail. It previously was calculated
to be right in the middle of the kernel page tables - not
a good place to start allocating kernel VM.
2) properly allocate kernel page dir/tables etc out of kernel map
- previously only took out 2 pages.
i386/i386/machdep.c:
1) modify boot() to print a warning that the system will reboot in
PANIC_REBOOT_WAIT_TIME amount of seconds, and let the user
abort with a key on the console. The machine will wait for
ever if a key is typed before the reboot. The default is
15 seconds, but can be set to 0 to mean don't wait at all,
-1 to mean wait forever, or any positive value to wait for
that many seconds.
2) print "Rebooting..." just before doing it.
kern/subr_prf.c:
1) remove PANICWAIT as it is deprecated by the change to machdep.c
i386/i386/trap.c:
1) add table of trap type strings and use it to print a real trap/
panic message rather than just a number. Lot's of work to
be done here, but this is the first step. Symbolic traceback
is in the TODO.
i386/i386/Makefile.i386:
1) add support in to build support.s, exception.s and swtch.s
...and various changes to various header files to make all of the
above happen.

locores.s:
Fix comment on PTDpde and APTDpde to be pde instead of pte
Add new equation for calculating location of Sysmap
Remove Bill's old #ifdef garbage for counting up memory,
that stuff will never be made to work and was just cluttering
up the file.
Add code that places the PTD, page table pages, and kernel
stack below the 640k ISA hole if there is room for it, otherwise
put this stuff all at 1MB. This fixes the 28K bogusity in
the boot blocks, that can now go away!
Fix the caclulation of where first is to be dependent on
NKPDE so that we can skip over the above mentioned areas.
The 28K thing is now 44K in size due to the increase in
kernel virtual memory space, but since we no longer have
to worry about that this is no big deal.
Use if NNPX > 0 instead of ifdef NPX for floating point code.
machdep.c
Change the calculation of for the buffer cache to be
20% of all memory above 2MB and add back the upper limit
of 2/5's of the VM_KMEM_SIZE so that we do not eat ALL
of the kernel memory space on large memory machines, note
that this will not even come into effect unless you have
more than 32MB. The current buffer cache limit is 6.7MB
due to this caclulation.
It seems that we where erroniously allocating bufpages pages
for buffer_map. buffer_map is UNUSED in this implementation
of the buffer cache, but since the map is referenced in
several if statements a quick fix was to simply allocate
1 vm page (but no real memory) to it.
pmap.h
Remove rcsid, don't want them in the kernel files!
Removed some cruft inside an #ifdef DEBUGx that caused
compiler errors if you where compiling this for debug.
Use the #defines for PD_SHIFT and PG_SHIFT in place of
constants.
trap.c:
Remove patch kit header and rcsid, fix $Id$.
Now include "npx.h" and use NNPX for controlling the
floating point code.
Remove a now completly invalid check for a maximum virtual
address, the virtual address now ends at 0xFFFFFFFF so
there is no more MAX!! (Thanks David, I completly missed
that one!)
vm_machdep.c
Remove patch kit header and rcsid, fix $Id$.
Now include "npx.h" and use NNPX for controlling the
floating point code.
Replace several 0xFE00000 constants with KERNBASE
Mark the fact that PGSHIFT and PDRSHIFT are really the same as
PG_SHIFT and PD_SHIFT, these should be collapsed some day soon.
Document that KERNBASE should really be KPTDPTDI << PDRSHIFT, for
now leave it as the constant 0xFE000000 until I make a seperate
common header file for this stuff (vmaddresses.h?)
Remove NKMEMCLUSTERS define, it was only being used to define
VM_KMEM_SIZE, so why have all the indirection. Besides who wants
to work in CLBYTE sizes chuncks.
pmap.h:
Fix $Id$ and some other minor format clean ups.
Remove the XXX comment about NKPDE, since it now has the correct value
of 7.
Remove unused LASTPTDI and move the APTD into the very end of memory to
free up 4MB of kernel virtual address space.
Remove unused RSVDPTDI and free up 12MB of kernel virtual address space.
vmparam.h
Fix $Id$.
Increase SHMMAXPGS to 512 (2MB) now that there is room for it to be
bigger. The XXX comment stays until the kernel moves down in memory
to free up enough space to use the proper default of 4MB.
VM_KMEM_SIZE is now a direct constant stating the size of the kernel
malloc region. Increased the value from 3MB to 16MB.
then use that information to fix the enhancemode features of the
1542C/CF boards by turning them off.
When doing this I found that the Buslogic 545S does NOT properly
mimic the 1542 families AHA_INQUIRE command. It only returns 1
byte of information, when the adaptec manual clearly states that 4
bytes are to be returned. I added a printf that explains the error
when we see a 545S for now, I tried to come up with a better solution,
but it involved to much work for now.
Bruce Evans had limited the kernel virtual address space to not include the
last 4MB since it was not being used. Other changes are being made that will
reloate the Alternate Page Directory Table (APDT) into this area so the limit
is being fixed to be the last virtual address. (Infact with this patch you
can now do that relocation)
line of Makefile.i386. Fixes the extra rule that gmake complains about
for machdep.o. This fix is from Joans 0lsson.
Rework the depends and rules for assym.s and genassym so that we now use
the .depend rule for genassym.o such that if you change any header files
that are included by genassym.c the right things happen. This is probably
what has caused more bad kernel builds than any other thing in the
Makefile.i386!
other bio type devices.
Add mcd0 (mitsumi cd rom driver), to bad that GENERICBT is to large,
otherwise I could add this driver to it too.
--- 72,77 ----
Removed patch kit headers and rcsid strings, add $Id$.
isa.c:
Removed old #ifdef notyet isa_configure code, since it will never be
used, and I have done 90% of what it attempted to.
Add conflict checking code that searchs back through the devtab's looking
for any device that has already been found that may conflict with what
we are about to probe. Checks are mode for I/O address, memory address,
IRQ, and DRQ. This should stop the screwing up of any device that has
alread been found by other device probes.
Print out messages when we are not going to probe a device due to
a conflict so the user knows WHY something was not found. For example:
aha0 not probed due to irq conflict with ahb0 at 11
Now print out a message when a device is not found so the user knows
that it was probed for, but could not be found. For example:
ed1 not found at 0x320
For devices that have I/O address < 0x100 say that they are on the
motherboard, not on isa! The 0x100 magic number is per ISA spec. It
may seem funny that pc0 and sc0 report as being on the motherboard, but
this is due to the fact that the I/O address used is that of the keyboard
controller which IS on the motherboard. We really need to split the
keyboard probe from the display probe. It is completly legal to build
a pc with out one or the other, or even with out both!
npx.c:
Return -1 from the probe routine if we are using the Emulator so
that the i/o addresses are not printed, this is the same trick used
for 486's.
Do not print the ``Errors reported via Exception 16'', and
``Errors reported via IRQ 13'' messages any more, since these just lead
to more user confusion that anything. It still prints the message
``Error reporting broken, using 387 emulator'' so that the person is
aware that there mother board is ill.
to do this as I have changed to using PDTI's as the bases for the vm
system layout.
Eliminate constants SYSPDROFF and SYSPDREND, now use NKPTE to control the size
of the kernel virtual space.
Eliminate constant PDRPDROFF, now use PDTDTPI to control location of PTD,
PTDmap and PTDpde
Eliminate constant APDRPDROFF, now use APTDPTDI to control location of APTD,
APTDmap and APTDpde.
Still need to fix Sysmap location (it is still a constant).
.globl statements are now consistent with respect to <comma><space>, the
<space> being removed from all .globl statements.
Document the fillkpt macro as to what registers control what.
Fix some comments that went past column 80, and clean/line some others up.
Remove constand for _Crtat, now use KERNBASE+constant, this still needs work.
Replace constants for offsets of sigcode parameters with symbolic names
from assym.s
Mark the sigreturn() call with XXX since we use the hardcoded constant
for the system call number, this is bogus and should be a #define or
something some place!
The kernel before and after this change was verified with cmp, not one
byte changed. These are all cosmetic clean up changes that makes the
code more correct and easier to move the kernels virtual address space
and size.
Cleaned up tabs vs spaces after #define to make file consistent.
Removed now unused definitions of I386_PAGE_SIZE and I386_PDR_SIZE
Note That these two where unused and had the wrong values anyway!
Changed I386_KPDES to NKPDE
Changed I386_UPDES to NUPDE
Redid constant assignments of *PTDI's to be sizeable and relative.

Okay, I tracked down the d*mn thing that is causing the memcpy to be
emmitted by gcc2. In the following patch is a fix to eliminate the
one place that was causing gcc to do the memcpy in function ie_readframe
for the ie_recv_frame_desc rfd = *(ie->rframes[num]) structure copy.
I also fixed the code so that the NS (XNS) support would compile with
out error and removed the cruft #define ns_* stuff from the softc
structures (I did this a while back for all the other either drivers)
Removed the $Log$ and all of the old log stuff, that is all kept in
the cvs tree, no need to duplicate it in the file... I'll copy it
into my commit message so that it is all retained, except the
revision numbers are going to get screwed up.
It now compiles cleanly under my LINT kernel...

*
* Revision 1.29 93/06/20 15:40:13 wollman
* Started fixing some of the cast-qual warnings (most just commented).
*
* Revision 1.28 93/06/12 20:39:14 wollman
* Changed definition of MK_24 to silence -Wcast-qual.
*
* Revision 1.27 93/06/08 17:05:57 wollman
* Attach routine now returns void.
*
* Revision 1.26 93/06/08 16:31:21 wollman
* Deleted attempt to set watchdog timer, since we don't use it.
*
* Revision 1.25 93/04/16 22:15:31 wollman
* Fixed infinite loop in iestart() which would cause the transmitter
* to constantly step on the Ethernet, sending the same two packets over
* and over again. This crashes the router (really!) and makes other
* network users very angry.
*
* Revision 1.24 93/04/14 23:57:47 wollman
* Increased transmit buffer size from 1504 to 1512, just in case I don't
* understand how the MTU is used.
*
* Revision 1.23 93/04/14 23:16:19 wollman
* Fix iestart() so that it only tries to execute a command if one was
* queued up (oops...).
*
* Revision 1.22 93/04/14 23:02:16 wollman
* Unknown changes.
*
* Revision 1.21 93/04/12 18:29:33 wollman
* Added multiple transmit commands. Note that they are always queued in
* pairs (there are only two to begin with), and the I flag is only set
* on the second one. This should decrease interrupt activity somewhat.
*
* Revision 1.20 93/04/12 15:36:05 wollman
* Changed setup of config block to take into account difference between
* StarLAN (10BASE-T) and Ethernet: StarLAN is Manchester, Ethernet is NRZ.
*
* Revision 1.19 93/03/23 18:58:44 wollman
* Raised count of receive buffers from 32 to 48 and included analysis of
* memory usage in a comment near that definition.
*
* Revision 1.18 93/03/18 03:59:53 wollman
* Last try to get large TCP windows to work...
*
* Revision 1.17 93/03/18 03:54:10 wollman
* Added RNR processing as a part of receive interrupts. Hopefully this
* will make everything Just Work now.
*
* Revision 1.16 93/03/18 03:23:24 wollman
* Still having problems with RNR conditions. Basic problem: say we
* set TCP window to 16k, which is a semsible value. Then smart
* partners will blast 16k to us, of which we can fit 8k minus a bit
* into our buffers. (Need to look at that memory map..) So, we get
* an RNR interrupt. The problem is, what do we need to do in this case?
* The original code doesn't work, but it doesn't hang the system either.
*
* Revision 1.15 93/03/18 02:37:00 wollman
* Disabled watchdog timer. This gets called from a timeout somewhere,
* which is running up at softclock. This is at a higher priority than
* we are, so we can get interrupted in the process of receiving something
* by the timer expiration, which is not a nice thing to have happen.
* Question: how can we keep this functionality, but do it in sync with
* our interrupts? (Ugh!)
*
* Revision 1.14 93/03/18 02:35:46 wollman
* Fixed some more problems with receive code---it works!
*
* Revision 1.13 93/03/17 20:15:59 wollman
* Think we fixed the serious (showstopper) bugs in 1.12.
*
* Revision 1.12 93/03/15 17:45:39 wollman
* Changed filtering logic dramatically to avoid the unnecessary copyin
* for BPF or multicast routing when the packet is not for us. (We
* have to run in promiscuous mode in this case.) We still need to
* deal with the problem of allocating one mbuf per receive buffer;
* we should be able to get away with a single mbuf for all reasonable
* incoming packets, and using an mbuf cluster will help avoid unnecessary
* copying of data.
*
* Revision 1.11 93/01/30 20:23:15 wollman
* Fiddled with reset code to hopefully make it work better when the
* watchdog timer expires. Question: why does it make a difference that
* we do the same thing through ieioctl() as we were doing before. The
* old code, when iereset() was called, the receive unit would completely
* die. But, a cycle of ifconfig ie0 down ; ifconfig ie0 up' would bring
* things back to normal. So, we try to mimic that now. Grrr...
*
* Revision 1.10 93/01/29 17:26:50 wollman
* Finally fixed multicast routing/BPF mb_map full problem!!!!
* It turned out that, when we received a packet not for us, we
* would just return from ie_readframe(), *WITHOUT* freeing the
* mbuf that the packet was in. So, when running in promiscuous
* mode (i.e., multicast routing or BPF without -p), we would have
* (on our extremely busy subnet 4) a memory leak of epic proportions.
*
* We now hold on to a single mbuf chain allocated in this way,
* and the next time a packet is read, we free it. Also, the
* next time a packet is transmitted, we free it. This way,
* we never lose more than 6 mbufs total (and on average more like
* 3).
*
* Revision 1.9 93/01/23 14:22:21 wollman
* Added some StarLAN Fiber modifications from L. Jonas Olsson.
*
* Revision 1.8 93/01/23 14:02:34 wollman
* Added support for IP multicasting.
*
* Revision 1.7 92/11/21 17:51:59 wollman
* Added StarLAN Fiber version point to my driver.
*
* Revision 1.6 92/11/20 18:21:45 wollman
* Fixed documentation, made out-of-mbuf condition an error.
*
* Revision 1.5 92/11/20 18:14:02 wollman
* Move change of ethertype to host byte order so that it's after
* bpf_mtap. Hopefully, this will allow us to listen to incoming
* IP packets.
*
* Revision 1.4 92/11/20 18:11:00 wollman
* Added code to drop packets when we run out of mbufs rather than
* panicking. This should alleviate the problems observed when using tcpdump.
*
* Revision 1.3 92/11/14 14:12:40 wollman
* Added BPF support code.
*
* Revision 1.2 92/11/14 13:30:26 wollman
* Added RCS keywords
*

PDRSHIFT.
The SYSTEM constant that was defined in this file has been replaced
with KERNBASE from param.h.
Changed almost all # style comments to /* */ C style comments. Several
comments cleaned up so that they make a little more since.
In the comments that describe C calling conventions to assembler routines
used a comma space sequence to seperate arguments and removed the space
between the function name and the argument list.
Removed useless comments like /* clr eax */.
Changed all comma space sequences on assemble instructions to just be comma.
Removed spaces after $ operators to make the file consistent, this may need
to change again (ie: $KERNBASE should probably be $(KERNBASE), but for now
it all seems to work just fine.) This may become a problem with the C
pre-processor.
Changed several double blank lines to single blank lines that where used
to seperate the I/O routines, these routines are blocked enough that we
don't need double blank lines between them.
Changed sequence of I/O routines to be all input functions, all output
functions instead of just the opposite.
Moved the SHOW_A_LOT debug stuff to near the end of the file.
Changed two occurances of the constant 0xfff to NBPG-1.
the proper I_X86CPU in the config file the following error will occur
while building the kernel: (had to line wrap the error for this message)
../../i386/i386/machdep.c:343: #error This kernel is not configured for one \
of the supported CPUs
Remove patch kit headers, and add $Id$
This is mostly to align some more code with NetBSD.
cpu.h:
Remove the old function vs. include configuration stuff that was
ifdefed out when we went to inline functions.
Remove the define of resettodr that made it a nop, there is
already a function that makes it a nop, no need to #define one.
Remove the #defines of processor types, they are now defined
in cputypes.h, #include that file.
Add struct cpu_nameclass for support of cpu types.
frame.h:
include sys/signal.h, it will be needed in the future.
put the sigframe structure here that was in machdep.c
pcb.h:
Add multiple inclusion protection.
Add pcb_ldt and pcb_ldt_len to pcb structure, this is for the
user mode ldt.
removed patch kit headers and sccsids, add $Id$. This is a general
clean up and reallignment with NetBSD-current where possible.
genassym.c:
removed extranious include of reg.h
removed old FP_* defines that have been ifdefed out since the patch kit
removed PCB_SIGC that is not referenced anywhere
add trapframe and sigframe defines
add KERNBASE define for use in locore.s
locore.s:
include npx.h and use NNPX for turning on and off FPU
include machine/cputypes.h for the types of cpu (used in cpu_identify)
change SYSPDREND to be one higher, this is really the base of the
next area, and will be changing again next time I revise the file
Reverse the NOP defines, you now get slow NOP's by default, this
may be what is casuing us trouble with some systems. If you want
the NOPS to be null you now need to have options DUMMY_NOPS.
Now get esym from the boot blocks which don't pass it yet, and
it is not used, but this will be changing.
Move the bit_colors stuff to be in with the rest of Bruces SHOW_A_LOT
things for debugging.
Added NetBSD's CPU type probe code, we now know what type of CPU
we are running on.
Adjust kernel pde calcuation to correct for change in SYSPDREND, no
longer need the +1.
machdep.c
include npx.h and use NNPX for turning on and off FPU
include isa.h, map.h(new file), exec.h in preperation for
changes that are still in process.
Add some of the code for MACHINE_NONCONTIG that will alow us
to better map around the BIOS memory area.
Now print the version, cpu id, real memory and availiable memory
during boot.
Correct the calculation of bufpages, the code was mixing pages
and bytes, it now does the right things. Removed Bill's hack
for limiting the erronous calculation.
add the identifycpu print out code from NetBSD.
remove the definition of the sigframe struct, it belongs in
frame.h
put in printf's about syncing disks on a halt/reboot.
Change the halted message to be a little easier reading.
Clean up of the dump messages, makes the source and the output
much more readable.
Change 0,0 in several places to have spaces after the commas.
is so often reported as an error condition when it is not. We print the
size of things so for those who want to know if this happened they can
figure it out from the size information that is printed.
Change the cpu "i386" line to 2 lines:
cpu "I386_CPU"
cpu "I486_CPU"
This is so we can do real CPU classification of code.
Fix missing depend for assym.s which does depend on genassym.c
lines to match NetBSD. Added $Id$.
Added MID_MACHINE from NetBSD.
Removed definition of DELAY() for non-kernel soures.
Fixed some small english errors that had been corrected in NetBSD.
File is now identical to NetBSD's, but will be changing soon for some
of my clean up work.
machdep.o is a defined to be a target in 2 places. This was caused by
the addition of the LOAD_ADDRESS stuff. Removed the extranious target
of machdep.o.

Description:
Old wt driver is too incomplete and buggy.
It does not support Archive controllers, BSD-like
tape ioctls, multiple tape controllers, different
tape density etc.
Fix:
This driver is a replacement of the old one.
It was not tested on different controllers, though.
This is the streamer tape driver for 386bsd and FreeBSD,
which supports Wangtek and Archive controllers.
It was developed as a replacement of the old Wangtek
tape driver from CMU.
In comparison with the CMU driver, this version has the following enhancements:
1) Support for Archive SC402 and SC499 tape controllers added.
2) Support for up to three tape controllers on the same machine.
3) Support for BSD-style ioctls MTIOCGET, MTIOCTOP.
Mt command now works adequately with this driver.
4) Asynchronous REWIND and FSF operations, close() will not wait
until they finish. The next open() will wait for it instead.
5) Use of WTQICMD ioctl is limited to ERASE and RETENS operations.
This prevents the user from locking the tape driver by strange
tape operations.
6) Tape density switching added.
7) The status of the process, blocked on the tape operation,
is displayed at the WCHAN column of the `ps' command as:
wtread reading data from the tape
wtwrite writing data to the tape
wtrfm reading the tape marker
wtwfm writing the tape marker
wtrew rewinding the tape
wterase doing WTQICMD ERASE operation
wtretens doing WTQICMD RETENS operation
wtorew doing MTIOCTOP REW/OFFL operation
wtorfm doing MTIOCTOP FSF operation
wtowfm doing MTIOCTOP WEOF operation
Block interface (writing blocks less than 2048 bytes) is not functioning
pwoperly. Use raw interface instead.
* Added software NIC reset in NE probe to work around a problem
* with some NE boards where the 8390 doesn't reset properly on

This will allow you to compile and run a freebsd kernel with shared
memory support. I haven't tested the shm*() calls yet.
You run out of page table descriptors if you specify 4Mb of sharable
memory (SHMMAXPGS=1024). I don't know what the limit is, but
SHMMAXPGS=64 works. Rich

I think removing FINDWORK would make things clearer.
Nothing much is going to start work on the next item. However, it is
pointless to continue processing the queue for the same unready drive.
Aborting all reads and trying harder to perform all writes would be
better.

The fd driver reported the wrong cylinder/head/sector numbers after an
error (ST3 is only valid after a sense-drive command), and didn't report
fs block numbers (diskerr was not used).
There was an old problem with writes to block fd devices. Try this:
1. write protect floppy in fd0.
2. tar cf /dev/fd0a /dev/null. Repeat a few times. Later writes tend to
terminate earlier.
3. un-write protect floppy.
4. repeat step 2. The writes tend to return 0, 2048, 4096, ... and then
succeed.
This was caused by a bug in vfs__bios.c. (The bug is fixed in NetBSD's
vfs_bio.c.) fd.c sets bp->b_resid to nonzero after an error. vfs__bios.c
was not initializing bp->b_resid. This causes some writes to terminate
early (e.g., writes to block devices; see spec_write()).
Related funnies:
1. Nothing tries to write the residual bytes.
2. The wd driver sets bp->b_resid to 0 after an error, so there's no
way anything else could write the residual bytes.
3. I use the block fd device for tar because the raw device seemed to
have more bugs long ago, and because it ought to be able to handle
buffering more transparently (I don't want to have to know the
device size). But spec_write() always uses the size BLKDEV_IOSIZE
== 2048 which is too small. For disks it should use the size of
one track (rounded down to meet the next track boundary or the i/o
size). Here it would help if the DIOCGPART ioctl worked. But
DIOCGPART is not implemented for floppies, and the disk size is
ignored except for partitions of type FS_BSDFFS.

I think I've fixed some bugs in the 0.2.4 fd driver.
1. The main cause of hangs was that there was no timeout for seeks. So
attempting i/o with no floppy in the drive hung iff a seek was required.
2. Opens of unattached drives were allowed. The kernel usually paniced
soon after due to a bad pointer.
3. Some timeout functions ran at splclock() instead of splbio(). This
may not have mattered.
4. The state machine was left in a funny state after a timeout.
5. Some function headers were new-style.

>Subject: Bad bug in kbdtables.h [FreeBSD]
I found a bug in /sys/i386/isa/kbdtables.h which contain the
different keyboard layouts for syscons. This regards all tables exept
the Danish and US. When compiling the kernel with any other keymapping
than Danish or none at all (US), you get an error that 'key_map' is undefined.
This is because there is a typo in the name of the struct containing
the tables, keymap intead of key_map.
That is because TIOCMGET was broken. Yes...this is known for some time
and no, we (Bruce and me) never posted it. Why? Simply because we choose
to post fixes when we fixed most of the bugs.
Anyway..now that the slip problems are coming, here is a fix for
correct TIOCMGET behaviour.

Note: this should be tested first (Rich?). Tested by rgrimes
1) fixed 3c503 lock-up if the thinwire cable was disconnected at boot time
2) 8013EBT boards now work (quite well!) in 16bit/16k mode
3) ED_NO_DOUBLE_BUFFERING flag now works
4) slightly higer performance (about 3%) with 16bit WD/SMC boards
5) support for WD8013WC (10BaseT) boards
Additionally, the probe code has been reorganized to be much cleaner. This
revision of the driver is 1.25. The release notes have been updated as well.
going to panic shortly after this anyway. Destroys less state, and
keeps the machine from waiting for someone to smash the return key
a few times before it panics!

4. Move printf("\n"); at line 491 in "/sys/i386/isa/sio.c" to after
COM_MULTIPORT block at line 512.
From rgrimes:
The above would cause the word (multiport) with out a new line to
appear after the uart type message if you had COM_MULTIPORT enabled.
Added support of DONET({IMP,NS,ISO}) so you can now compile with options
NS and ISO, still missing some IMP code, but since the imp is old and
gone I doubt this will ever be used.
Subject: More information on "netstat -r
Date: Mon, 7 Jun 1993 11:57:33 +0100
Gentlemen,
I have been trying for some time now to get "netstat -r"
working from the 0.2.2 patchkit. I have the following solution to the
bug.
The symbol _radix_node_head needs to be added to the symbols.raw file
to enable the new routing table access. If this symbol is not present
then the old system us used which results in no routes being given. I
don't think that this justifies a patch in its own right but perhaps
could be added to a related patch sometime..
