Because of the changes, you are required to update your kernel
configuration file now!
The files in sys/dev/syscons are still i386-specific (but less so than
before), and won't compile for alpha and PC98 yet.
syscons still directly accesses the video card registers here and
there; this will be rectified in the later stages.

Stephen also suggested to remove the complication at all. I don't do it as

on the ASIX AX88140A chip. Update /sys/conf/files, RELNOTES.TXT,
/sys/i388/i386/userconfig.c, sysinstall/devices.c, GENERIC and LINT
accordingly.
For now, the only board that I know of that uses this chip is the
Alfa Inc. GFC2204. (Its predecessor, the GFC2202, was a DEC tulip card.)
Thanks again to Ulf for obtaining the board for me. If anyone runs
across another, please feel free to update the man page and/or the
release notes. (The same applies for the other drivers.)
FreeBSD should now have support for all of the DEC tulip workalike
chipsets currently on the market (Macronix, Lite-On, Winbond, ASIX).
And unless I'm mistaken, it should also have support for all PCI fast
ethernet chipsets in general (except maybe the SMC FEAST chip, which
nobody seems to ever use, including SMC). Now if only we could convince
3Com, Intel or whoever to cough up some documentation for gigabit
ethernet hardware.
Also updated RELNOTEX.TXT to mention that the SVEC PN102TX is supported
by the Macronix driver (assuming you actually have an SVEC PN102TX with
a Macronix chip on it; I tried to order a PN102TX once and got a box
labeled 'Hawking Technology PN102TX' that had a VIA Rhine board inside
it).

Cleaned up the asm statement for do_cpuid() a little.

On a system with a large amount of ram (e.g. 2G), allocation of per-page
data structures (512K physical pages) could easily bust the initial kernel
page table (36M), and growth of kernel page table requires kptobj.

Staticize ??cngetc(), ??cnputc(), etc functions in sc and vt drivers.
We must still have siocngetc() and siocnputc() as globals because they
are directly referred to by i386-gdbstub.c :-(

downward growing stacks more general.
Add (but don't activate) code to use the new stack facility
when running threads, (specifically the linux threads support).
This allows people to use both linux compiled linuxthreads, and also the
native FreeBSD linux-threads port.
The code is conditional on VM_STACK. Not using this will
produce the old heavily tested system.

There's something that's been bugging me for a while, so I decided to fix it.
FreeBSD now will DTRT WRT DDB and DDB_UNATTENDED (!debugger_on_panic), at least
in my opinion. The behavior change is such that:
1. Nothing changes when debugger_on_panic != 0.
2. When DDB_UNATTENDED (!debugger_on_panic), if a panic occurs, the
machine will reboot. Also, if a trap occurs, the machine will
panic and reboot, unlike how it broke to DDB before. HOWEVER,
a trap inside DDB will not cause a panic, allowing full use
of DDB without having to worry about the machine being stuck
at a DDB prompt if something goes wrong during the day.
Patches for this behavior follow my signature, and it would
be a boon to anyone (like me) who uses DDB_UNATTENDED, but
actually wants the machine to panic on a trap (otherwise,
what's the use, if the machine causes a fatal trap rather than
a true panic, of debugger_on_panic?). The changes cause no
adverse behavior, but do involve two symbols becoming global

CPU_WT_ALLOC does not work correctly for K6-2s of model 8+ and
probably K6-3s (when they appear on the market soon). In addition,
print_AMD_info() incorrectly printfs write allocation's size. I've
fixed them, so they now Do The Right Thing, and added a
"NO_MEMORY_HOLE" option to easily allow 15-16mb range handling for us
K6 and K6-2 users.

adjusted related casts to match (only in the kernel in this commit).
The pointer was only wanted in one place in kern_exec.c. Applications
should use the kern.ps_strings sysctl instead of PS_STRINGS, so they
shouldn't notice this change.
for possible buffer overflow problems. Replaced most sprintf()'s
with snprintf(); for others cases, added terminating NUL bytes where
appropriate, replaced constants like "16" with sizeof(), etc.
These changes include several bug fixes, but most changes are for
maintainability's sake. Any instance where it wasn't "immediately
obvious" that a buffer overflow could not occur was made safer.

problem is worked around by using an interrupt gate for the page
fault handler. This code was originally made for NetBSD/pc98 by
Naofumi Honda <honda@kururu.math.sci.hokudai.ac.jp> and has already
been in PC98 tree. Because of this bug, trap_fatal cannot show
correct page fault address if %cr2 is obtained in this function.
Therefore, trap_fatal uses the value from trap() function.
- The trap handler always enables interruption when buggy application
or kernel code has disabled interrupts and then trapped. This code
was prepared by Bruce Evans <bde@FreeBSD.org>.
