exactly the same functionality via a sysctl, making this feature
a run-time option.
The default is 1(ON), which means that /dev/random device will
NOT block at startup.
setting kern.random.sys.seeded to 0(OFF) will cause /dev/random
to block until the next reseed, at which stage the sysctl
will be changed back to 1(ON).
While I'm here, clean up the sysctls, and make them dynamic.

- Break out the /dev/pci driver into a separate file.
- Kill the COMPAT_OLDPCI support.
- Make the EISA bridge attach a bit more like the old code; explicitly
check for the existence of eisa0/isa0 and only attach if they don't
already exist. Only make one bus_generic_attach() pass over the
bridge, once both busses are attached. Note that the stupid Intel
bridge's class is entirely unpredictable.
- Add prototypes and re-layout the core PCI modules in line with
current coding standards (not a major whitespace change, just moving
the module data to the top of the file).
- Remove redundant type-2 bridge support from the core PCI code; the
PCI-CardBus code does this itself internally. Remove the now
entirely redundant header-class-specific support, as well as the
secondary and subordinate bus number fields. These are bridge
attributes now.
- Add support for PCI Extended Capabilities.
- Add support for PCI Power Management. The interface currently
allows a driver to query and set the power state of a device.
- Add helper functions to allow drivers to enable/disable busmastering
and the decoding of I/O and memory ranges.
- Use PCI_SLOTMAX and PCI_FUNCMAX rather than magic numbers in some
places.
- Make the PCI-PCI bridge code a little more paranoid about valid
I/O and memory decodes.
- Add some more PCI register definitions for the command and status
registers. Correct another bogus definition for type-1 bridges.
function declared in kern_ktr.c. The only inline checks left are the
checks that compare KTR_COMPILE with the supplied mask and thus should
be optimized away into either nothing or a direct call to ktr_tracepoint().
- Move several KTR-related options to opt_ktr.h now that they are only
needed by kern_ktr.c and not by ktr.h.
- Add in the ktr_verbose functionality if KTR_EXTEND is turned on. If the
global variable 'ktr_verbose' is non-zero, then KTR messages will be
dumped to the console. This variable can be set by either kernel code
or via the 'debug.ktr_verbose' sysctl. It defaults to off unless the
KTR_VERBOSE kernel option is specified in which case it defaults to on.
This can be useful when the machine locks up spinning in a loop with
interrupts disabled as you might be able to see what it is doing when it
locks up.

reducues the maintenance load for the mutex code. The only MD portions
of the mutex code are in machine/mutex.h now, which include the assembly
macros for handling mutexes as well as optionally overriding the mutex
micro-operations. For example, we use optimized micro-ops on the x86
platform #ifndef I386_CPU.
- Change the behavior of the SMP_DEBUG kernel option. In the new code,
mtx_assert() only depends on INVARIANTS, allowing other kernel developers
to have working mutex assertiions without having to include all of the
mutex debugging code. The SMP_DEBUG kernel option has been renamed to
MUTEX_DEBUG and now just controls extra mutex debugging code.
- Abolish the ugly mtx_f hack. Instead, we dynamically allocate
seperate mtx_debug structures on the fly in mtx_init, except for mutexes
that are initiated very early in the boot process. These mutexes
are declared using a special MUTEX_DECLARE() macro, and use a new
flag MTX_COLD when calling mtx_init. This is still somewhat hackish,
but it is less evil than the mtx_f filler struct, and the mtx struct is
now the same size with and without mutex debugging code.
- Add some micro-micro-operation macros for doing the actual atomic
operations on the mutex mtx_lock field to make it easier for other archs
to override/optimize mutex ops if needed. These new tiny ops also clean
up the code in some places by replacing long atomic operation function
calls that spanned 2-3 lines with a short 1-line macro call.
- Don't call mi_switch() from mtx_enter_hard() when we block while trying
to obtain a sleep mutex. Calling mi_switch() would bogusly release
Giant before switching to the next process. Instead, inline most of the
code from mi_switch() in the mtx_enter_hard() function. Note that when
we finally kill Giant we can back this out and go back to calling
mi_switch().

How it works:
--
Basically ifs is a copy of ffs, overriding some vfs/vnops. (Yes, hack.)
I didn't see the need in duplicating all of sys/ufs/ffs to get this
off the ground.
File creation is done through a special file - 'newfile' . When newfile
is called, the system allocates and returns an inode. Note that newfile
is done in a cloning fashion:
fd = open("newfile", O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0644);
fstat(fd, &st);
printf("new file is %d\n", (int)st.st_ino);
Once you have created a file, you can open() and unlink() it by its returned
inode number retrieved from the stat call, ie:
fd = open("5", O_RDWR);
The creation permissions depend entirely if you have write access to the
root directory of the filesystem.
To get the list of currently allocated inodes, VOP_READDIR has been added
which returns a directory listing of those currently allocated.
--
What this entails:
* patching conf/files and conf/options to include IFS as a new compile
option (and since ifs depends upon FFS, include the FFS routines)
* An entry in i386/conf/NOTES indicating IFS exists and where to go for
an explanation
* Unstaticize a couple of routines in src/sys/ufs/ffs/ which the IFS
routines require (ffs_mount() and ffs_reload())
* a new bunch of routines in src/sys/ufs/ifs/ which implement the IFS
routines. IFS replaces some of the vfsops, and a handful of vnops -
most notably are VFS_VGET(), VOP_LOOKUP(), VOP_UNLINK() and VOP_READDIR().
Any other directory operation is marked as invalid.
What this results in:
* an IFS partition's create permissions are controlled by the perm/ownership of
the root mount point, just like a normal directory
* Each inode has perm and ownership too
* IFS does *NOT* mean an FFS partition can be opened per inode. This is a
completely seperate filesystem here
* Softupdates doesn't work with IFS, and really I don't think it needs it.
Besides, fsck's are FAST. (Try it :-)
* Inodes 0 and 1 aren't allocatable because they are special (dump/swap IIRC).
Inode 2 isn't allocatable since UFS/FFS locks all inodes in the system against
this particular inode, and unravelling THAT code isn't trivial. Therefore,
useful inodes start at 3.
Enjoy, and feedback is definitely appreciated!

Add support for an overflow table for DEVFS inodes. The static
table defaults to 1024 inodes, if that fills, an overflow table
of 32k inodes is allocated. Both numbers can be changed at
compile time, the size of the overflow table also with the

Use atomic instructions to barrier between make_dev()/destroy_dev()

This means 'options NETGRAPH' is no longer necessary in order to get
netgraph-enabled Ethernet interfaces. This supports loading/unloading
the ng_ether.ko and attaching/detaching the Ethernet interface in any
order.
Add two new hooks 'upper' and 'lower' to allow access to the protocol
demux engine and the raw device, respectively. This enables bridging
to be defined as a netgraph node, if so desired.

I had hoped to make some of this more dynamic, but the cost of doing
wakeups on all sleeping processes on old arrays was too frightening.
The other possibility is to initialize on the first use, and allow
dynamic sysctl changes to parameters right until that point. That would

do with SHM*, but without the nightmare of changing a running system.

that was a bit too drastic for my liking.
