their own directory and module, leaving the MD parts in the MD
area (the MD parts _are_ part of the modules). /dev/mem and /dev/io
are now loadable modules, thus taking us one step further towards
a kernel created entirely out of modules. Of course, there is nothing
preventing the kernel from having these statically compiled.
This should allow us to more easily break out the acpi and 'legacy pc'
front ends as well (so only the bus front end would touch rtc, for
example).
This isn't a great separation, since isa dma routines are still called
from the MI code, but it is a start.
repocopied. Soon there will be additional bus attachments and
specialization for isa, acpi and pccard (and maybe pc98's cbus).
This was approved by nate, joerg and myself. bde dissented on the new
location, but appeared to be OK after some discussion.
of what uart(4) is and/or is not see the initial commit log of one
of the files in sys/dev/uart (or see share/man/man4/uart.4).
Note that currently pc98 shares the MD file with i386. This needs
to change when pc98 support is fleshed-out to properly support the
various UARTs. A good example is sparc64 in this respect.
We build uart(4) as a module on all platforms. This may break
the ppc port. That depends on whether they do actually build
modules.
To use uart(4) on alpha, one must use the NO_SIO option.
- 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.
PR: 38372 (in spirit done differently)
Verified by: Make universe (if I messed up a platform please fix)
for the agp module, and add agp to the list of modules to compile for alpha.
Add an alpha_mb() to agp_flush_cache for alpha -- it's not correct but may
improve the situation, and it's what linux and NetBSD do.
NB: But it will enable it in all kernels not having options "NO_GEOM"
Put the GEOM related options into the intended order.
Add "options NO_GEOM" to all kernel configs apart from NOTES.
In some order of controlled fashion, the NO_GEOM options will be
removed, architecture by architecture in the coming days.
There are currently three known issues which may force people to
need the NO_GEOM option:
boot0cfg/fdisk:
Tries to update the MBR while it is being used to control
slices. GEOM does not allow this as a direct operation.
SCSI floppy drives:
Appearantly the scsi-da driver return "EBUSY" if no media
is inserted. This is wrong, it should return ENXIO.
PC98:
It is unclear if GEOM correctly recognizes all variants of
PC98 disklabels. (Help Wanted! I have neither docs nor HW)
These issues are all being worked.

Savecore likes the results, but I have no way to test it as gdb is

disablement assumptions in kern_fork.c by adding another API call,
cpu_critical_fork_exit(). Cleanup the td_savecrit field by moving it
from MI to MD. Temporarily move cpu_critical*() from <arch>/include/cpufunc.h
to <arch>/<arch>/critical.c (stage-2 will clean this up).
Implement interrupt deferral for i386 that allows interrupts to remain
enabled inside critical sections. This also fixes an IPI interlock bug,
and requires uses of icu_lock to be enclosed in a true interrupt disablement.
This is the stage-1 commit. Stage-2 will occur after stage-1 has stabilized,
and will move cpu_critical*() into its own header file(s) + other things.
This commit may break non-i386 architectures in trivial ways. This should
be temporary.

device drivers for bus system with other endinesses than the CPU (using
interfaces compatible to NetBSD):
- bwap16() and bswap32(). These have optimized implementations on some
architectures; for those that don't, there exist generic implementations.
- macros to convert from a certain byte order to host byte order and vice
versa, using a naming scheme like le16toh(), htole16().
These are implemented using the bswap functions.
- stream bus space access functions, which do not perform a byte order
conversion (while the normal access functions would if the bus endianess
differs from the CPU endianess).
htons(), htonl(), ntohs() and ntohl() are implemented using the new
functions above for kernel usage. None of the above interfaces is currently
exported to user land.
Make use of the new functions in a few places where local implementations
of the same functionality existed.

This incorporates most of Bruce's review material. I'm at a good

Move sio from isa/sio.c to dev/sio/sio.c. The next step is to break
out the front end attachments, improve support for these parts on
different busses, and maybe, if we're lucky, merging in pc98 support.
It will also be MI and live in conf/files rather than files.*.

- Replace some very poorly thought out API hacks that should have been
fixed a long while ago.
- Provide some much more flexible search functions (resource_find_*())
- Use strings for storage instead of an outgrowth of the rather
inconvenient temporary ioconf table from config(). We already had a
fallback to using strings before malloc/vm was running anyway.
