a wierd double-queue arrangement.. It always empties the if_snd queue
then puts the transmit packets into a different queue that is limited
by the number of TX descriptors and does it's own discards...
This should stop the boot-time XXX warning anyway.
MMalloc: save the time at which the request was granted, remove more
crud.
FFree: add a circular buffer of the last 64 Free requests if
DEBUG_MEMFREE is set.
after the volume had been fully operational; involves a change in the
use of the VF_NEWBORN flag. Now if you add a plex to a volume which
is up, the plex will be down and the subdisks stale. You need to
explicitly start the subdisks, which copies data from the good
subdisks to the uninitialized ones.

give_sd_to_drive:
correct method to give the entire largest chunk of drive to the
subdisk. Now it's enough to specify a length, and vinum will give
you as much as it can. Not to be recommended except for empty
drives.
Correct a bogon which made vinum refuse to give the last sector of
a drive to a subdisk.

Change %q formats to %ll before the former go away. This doesn't make
much difference, since kernel kvprintf currently doesn't support
either, and the messages in question are just error messages.
- Refined internal interface in keyboard drivers so that:
1. the side effect of device probe is kept minimal,
2. polling mode function is added,
3. and new ioctl and configuration options are added (see below).
- Added new ioctl: KDSETREPEAT
Set keyboard typematic rate. There has existed an ioctl command,
KDSETRAD, for the same purpose. However, KDSETRAD is dependent on
the AT keyboard. KDSETREPEAT provides more generic interface.
KDSETRAD will still be supported in the atkbd driver.
- Added new configuration options:
ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
Specify a keymap to be used as the default, built-in keymap.
(There has been undocumented options, DKKEYMAP, UKKEYMAP, GRKEYMAP,
SWKEYMAP, RUKEYMAP, ESKEYMAP, and ISKEYMAP to set the default keymap.
These options are now gone for good. The new option is more general.)
KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOADING
Don't allow the user to change the keymap.
Move the Olicom token ring driver to the officially sanctionned location of
/sys/contrib. Also fix some brokenness in the generic token ring support.
Be warned that if_dl.h has been changed and SOME programs might
like recompilation.
The i++ loop from 1..1000 is too small on very fast machines like
PII 450 MHz. Increasing the loop from 1..100000 lets the machine
access PHY. After this patch it's possible to use a SMC PCI card
on a HP Kayak XA series PC Workstation. Workaround until this fix
was to enable debugging in the driver (#define EPIC_DEBUG 1).
Without that patch you get an undefined state:
while true
do
ifconfig -a | grep status:
done
The status messages flaps between twwo values, but not
"connected".

determine IRQ and DRQ information.
Fix a bug that would cause us to attempt to retrieve extended sync
rate information on cards/firmware revs that do not support that command.
config info. On early revision cards (742a), the EISA register space,
other than the location used to determine the address of the card's main
command ports, is write only.
reports on those most welcome!
Fixed problems:
Hang on probe on "fantom" devices.
The probe now use a timeout to avoid hangs if no interrupt
is recevied.
There has also been more general code clenaups, and some reorgs.
connection.
Clean up support for devices featuring the multiple target SCSI ID feature.
On aic7890/91/96/97 chips, we can now assume the target role on multiple
target ids simultaneously. Although these chips also have sufficient
instruction space to hold to support the initiator and target role at the
same time, the initiator role is currently disabled as it will conflict
(chip design restriction) with the multi-tid feature. I'll probably add
a nob to enable the initiator (there-by disabling multi-tid) some time
in the future.
Return queue full or busy, depending on the tagged nature of the incoming
request, if our command input queue fills up in host memeory.
Deal with accept target I/O resource shortages.
If we get an underrun on a transaction that wasn't supposed to transmit
any data, don't attempt to print out the S/G list. The code would
run until hitting a non-present page. (oops)
interrupts are enabled, this kills the last "unwanted interrupts"
(and there is no ugly hacks like in the old driver to avoid them).
COmmand interrupt devices are now supported, this applies mostly
to older CDROM's and apparently also the ZIP.
Fixed problems:
Number of total sectors wrong on some older drives.
Fixed by not using the LBA size unless we know its valid.
There has also been more general code clenaups, some reorgs also.
Added "options ATA_STATIC_ID" that wires ATA disks like the old wd driver.
Fixed problems:
Dont use more sectors/intr than the drive supports.
Fix announce of > 8.4G disks.
Dont call ad_interrupt/ad_transfer when no disks config'd.
Use the right page# for CDR write mode params.
Fix breakage when no PCI support in kernel.
Implement DEVFS stuff.
General code clenaup.
Change VINUM_SAVECONFIG: it now requires a parameter. 0 means
"configuration updates are finished, please save", and 1 means "please
just save the config". This second meaning is invoked by the new
"saveconfig" command to vinum(8).
Recognize "referenced" drives by the lack of a slash in the device
name, not by a NUL character.
vinum_scandisk: return error indication (ENOENT if we can't find any
vinum drive, otherwise 0).
VINUM_SAVECONFIG: change parameters.
Don't save config while we're reading it from disk.
Change the way we handle the daemon: if we can't communicate with it
for 1 second (which is possible), start a new one. The daemon saves
its pid in daemonpid; on each iteration of the main loop the daemon
checks whether it's still in favour. If not, it silently exits.
Also, when trying to communicate with the daemon, check daemonpid
first. If it's set to 0, don't even try.
Rename the VF_KERNELOP to VF_DISKCONFIG and checkkernel () to
checkdiskconfig (), which better describes their function.
Disable configuration updates if we have an error reading in the
configuration. This stops a "shoot-in-foot" problem where a mistake
can cause the configuration to be obliterated.
Tidy up some messages, which included superfluous \ns.
Recognize RAID-5 configuration information even in the non-RAID-5
version. This fixes shoot-in-foot problems where starting the wrong
version of vinum would kill RAID-5 plexes.
Recognize drives that have been referenced, but for which no physical
location is known. This is part of a modification which will
ultimately allow incrementally reading configurations. Such drives
will have a device name "unknown".
New function return_drive_space () returns space to a drive.
Previously this was part of free_sd ().
give_sd_to_drive: don't do it if the subdisk needs more space than the
drive has available.
config_sd: if reading config from disk, accept plex offset, drive
offset and length specs of -1 to indicate error conditions.
parse_config: return ENOENT if the "read" command doesn't find any
drives.
remove_sd_entry: don't do it, even by force, if it's open.
If the size of a striped or RAID-5 plex is not an integral multiple of
the stripe size, trim the size until it is.
reinstate update_volume_config, which had atrophied, to recalculate
the size of a volume if a plex has shrunk due to stripe size
considerations.
vinumattach: Zero out tables after allocating them
Modify procedure at unload: if a vinum(8) has the superdev open, don't
close down. If only the daemon has it open, send the daemon a stop
request and wait for it to close the superdev, then unload.
In order to do this, create a second superdev which is opened by the
daemon. The open and close routines set a different bit in
vinum_conf.flags; otherwise the treatment is identical.
Remove opencount field in vol structure; replace by a flag bit, since
we can't count the number of opens.
Remove dead LKM grunge.
