This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
seems to work hre just fine though I can't check every file
that changed due to limmited h/w, however I've checked enught to be petty
happy withe hte code..
WARNING... struct lkm[mumble] has changed
so it might be an idea to recompile any lkm related programs
most devsw referenced functions are now static, as they are
in the same file as their devsw structure. I've also added DEVFS
support for nearly every device in the system, however
many of the devices have 'incorrect' names under DEVFS
because I couldn't quickly work out the correct naming conventions.
(but devfs won't be coming on line for a month or so anyhow so that doesn't
matter)
If you "OWN" a device which would normally have an entry in /dev
then search for the devfs_add_devsw() entries and munge to make them right..
check out similar devices to see what I might have done in them in you
can't see what's going on..
for a laugh compare conf.c conf.h defore and after... :)
I have not doen DEVFS entries for any DISKSLICE devices yet as that will be
a much more complicated job.. (pass 5 :)
pass 4 will be to make the devsw tables of type (cdevsw * )
rather than (cdevsw)
seems to work here..
complaints to the usual places.. :)
That's EVERY SINGLE driver that has an entry in conf.c..
my next trick will be to define cdevsw[] and bdevsw[]
as empty arrays and remove all those DAMNED defines as well..
Each of these drivers has a SYSINIT linker set entry
that comes in very early.. and asks teh driver to add it's own
entry to the two devsw[] tables.
some slight reworking of the commits from yesterday (added the SYSINIT
stuff and some usually wrong but token DEVFS entries to all these
devices.
BTW does anyone know where the 'ata' entries in conf.c actually reside?
seems we don't actually have a 'ataopen() etc...
If you want to add a new device in conf.c
please make sure I know
so I can keep it up to date too..
as before, this is all dependent on #if defined(JREMOD)
(and #ifdef DEVFS in parts)
the first one in the config has priority. They can be switched using
userconfig().
i386/i386/conf.c:
Initialize the shared syscons/pcvt cdevsw entry to `nx'.
Add cdevsw registration functions.
Use devsw functions of the correct type if they exist.
i386/i386/cons.c:
Add renamed syscons entry points to constab.
i386/i386/cons.h:
Declare the renamed syscons entry points.
i386/i386/machdep.c:
Repeat console initialization after userconfig() in case the current
console has become wrong. This depends on cn functions not wiring down
anything important.
sys/conf.h:
Declare new functions.
i386/isa/isa.[ch]:
Add a function to decide which display driver has priority. Should be
done better.
i386/isa/syscons.c:
Rename pccn* -> sccn*.
Initialize CRTC start address in case the previous driver has moved it.
i386/isa/syscons.c, i386/isa/pcvt/*
Initialize the bogusly shared variable Crtat dynamically in case the
stored value was changed by the previous driver.
Initialize cdevsw table from a template.
Don't grab the console if another display driver has priority.
i386/isa/syscons.h, i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_hdr.h:
Don't externally declare now-static cdevsw functions.
i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_hdr.h:
Set the sensitive hardware flag so that pcvt doesn't always have lower
priority than syscons. This also fixes the "stupid" detection of the
display after filling the display with text.
i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_out.c:
Don't be confused the off-screen cursor offset 0xffff set by syscons.
kern/subr_xxx.c:
Add enough nxio/nodev/null devsw functions of the correct type for syscons
and pcvt.
Split off cdevsw initialization in cninit() into a new function
cninit_finish() that isn't called until all hardware device drivers
have been attached. The bdevsw entry of the driver for the physical
console needs to be hooked after the physical driver has been
attached in case the attachment modified the entry.
Rearrange cninit() to avoid changing cn_tab until the driver for the
physical console has been initialized, so that the previous driver
(if any) can be used for debugging.
Start removing half-baked lint support. bdevsw functions usually have
unused args but /*ARGSUSED*/ was used for only about 5% of them.
cons.h:
Declare cn_init_finish().
autoconf.c:
Call cn_init_finish().
Start adding prototypes. Functions with bogus linkage (extern where
static is probably should be static) are explicitly declared as extern
so that the can be found easily (extern in a non-header is usually
wrong).
All:
Continue cleaning up init stuff: init functions shall be static;
INITs should be at the start of files...
changes to allow devices that don't probe (e.g. /dev/mem)
to create devfs entries
this required giving 'configure' its own SYSINIT entry
so we could duck in just before it with a DEVFS init
and some device inits..
my devfs now looks like:
./misc
./misc/speaker
./misc/mem
./misc/kmem
./misc/null
./misc/zero
./misc/io
./misc/console
./misc/pcaudio
./misc/pcaudioctl
./disks
./disks/rfloppy
./disks/rfloppy/fd0.1440
./disks/rfloppy/fd1.1200
./disks/floppy
./disks/floppy/fd0.1440
./disks/floppy/fd1.1200
also some sligt cleanups.. DEVFS needs a lot of work
but I'm getting back to it..
when syscons stops mapping the console to minor MAXCONS. There is
usually no corresponding device in /dev, and the correct device has
minor 0.
cons.c:
Initialize cn_tty properly, so that CPU_CONSDEV can work.
Comment about too many variants of the console tty pointer.
machdep.c:
Return device NODEV and not error EFAULT when there is no console device.
drivers to protect DDB from being invoked while the console is in
process-controlled (i.e., graphics) mode.
Implement the logic to use this hook from within pcvt. (I'm sure
Søren will do the syscons part RSN).
I've still got one occasion where the system stalled, but my attempts
to trigger the situation artificially resulted int the expected
behaviour. It's hard to track bugs without the console and DDB
available. :-/
#179). The fix implements a ttyhalfclose() (sort of), resetting the
session and pgrp pointers when the physical device is about to be
closed.
Suggested by: bde
(b) add a function callback vector to tty drivers that will return a pointer
to a valid tty structure based upon a dev_t
(c) make syscons structures the same size whether or not APM is enabled so
utilities don't crash if NAPM changes (and make the damn kernel compile!)
(d) rewrite /dev/snp ioctl interface so that it is device driver and i386
independant
the physical device is closed. Previously only the reverse case was handled.
Abuse the cdevsw interface instead of the vfs interface to do this.
Remove unnecessary #includes.
com.h/lpa.h. Removed all vestiges of com/lpa out of conf.c and also
fixed up the end of cdevsw/bdevsw to have "no" routines instead of
a NULL pointer (suggested by someone a few weeks back).
``changes'' are actually not changes at all, but CVS sometimes has trouble
telling the difference.
This also includes support for second-directory compiles. This is not
quite complete yet, as `config' doesn't yet do the right thing. You can
still make it work trivially, however, by doing the following:
rm /sys/compile
mkdir /usr/obj/sys/compile
ln -s M-. /sys/compile
cd /sys/i386/conf
config MYKERNEL
cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
ln -s /sys @
rm machine
ln -s @/i386/include machine
make depend
make
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).
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.
