but also IT ACTUALLY WORKS!
FreeBSD with options JREMOD now runs with no entries in the devsw tables
prior to the devices puting their own entries there..
Thanks to bde and terry for thoughts and comments.
next stop 'Real' devfs support in devices.
- Don't print out meaningless iCOMP numbers, those are for droids.
- Use a shorter wait to determine clock rate to avoid deficiencies
in DELAY().
- Use a fixed-point representation with 8 bits of fraction to store
the rate and rationalize the variable name. It would be
possible to use even more fraction if it turns out to be
worthwhile (I rather doubt it).
The question of source code arrangement remains unaddressed.
conflicted with S3 graphics cards. Now users should put sio[2-3]
in the config file if the hardware exisst, even if the probe is
certain to fail due to an interrupt conflict. Otherwise, ports
sharing the interrupt may fail the probe if the system is warm
booted while sio[2-3] are active (perhaps under another OS). The
same problem for nonstandard ports is now handled better than
before.
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)
o Add signed/unsigned functionality to the matrox meteor device driver.
o Apply a few fixes to the sound driver.
o Add a ``SPIGOT_UNSECURE'' compile time definition so, if one defines
SPIGOT_UNSECURE in their conf file, then they can use the spigot w/o
root. There is a warning that this allows users access to the IO
page which is probably not secure.

totally dynamic. (the first was about 7 weeeks ago)
this is only the devices in i386/isa
I'll do more tomorrow.
they're completely masked by #ifdef JREMOD at this stage...
the eventual aim is that every driver will do a SYSINIT
at startup BEFORE the probes, which will effectively
link it into the devsw tables etc.
If I'd thought about it more I'd have put that in in this set (damn)
The ioconf lines generated by config will also end up in the
device's own scope as well, so ioconf.c will eventually be gutted
the SYSINIT call to the driver will include a phase where the
driver links it's ioconf line into a chain of such. when this phase is done
then the user can modify them with the boot: -c
config menu if he wants, just like now..
config will put the config lines out in the .h file
(e.g. in aha.h will be the addresses for the aha driver to look.)
as I said this is a very small first step..
the aim of THIS set of edits is to not have to edit conf.c at all when
adding a new device.. the tabe will be a simple skeleton..
when this is done, it will allow other changes to be made,
all teh time still having a fully working kernel tree,
but the logical outcome is the complete REMOVAL of the devsw tables.
By the end of this, linked in drivers will be exactly the same as
run-time loaded drivers, except they JUST HAPPEN to already be linked
and present at startup..
the SYSINIT calls will be the equivalent of the "init" call
made to a newly loaded driver in every respect.

HD64570 chip. Both the 2 and 4 port cards is supported and auto detected.
Line speeds of up to 2Mbps is possible. At this speed about 85% of the
bandwidth is usable with 486DX processors.
The standard FreeBSD sppp code is used for the link level layer. The
default protocol used is PPP. The Cisco HDLC protocol can be used by
adding "link2" to the ifconfig line in /etc/sysconfig or where ever
ifconfig is run.
At the moment only the V.35 and X.21 interfaces is supported. The others
may need tweaks to the clock selection code.

bit set. I broke stat_imask in Dec 1994 and update_intr_masks() has
copied the breakage to intr_mask[8] since Mar 1995. This can cause
the RTC to stop interrupting in rare cases (under loads heavy enough
for a new RTC interrupt to occur at a critical time just before Xintr8
finishes handling the previous one) and may have caused worse problems.
Convert the remaining sysctl stuff to the new way of doing things.
the devconf stuff is the reason for the large number of files.
Cleaned up some compiler warnings while I were there.
almost every time someone uses an address. This file is probably not
the right place to keep track of the unused addresses (or used
addresses :->).
Fixed comments on #endif's to match code.
Added defines for ASC and GSC sizes. This file is not the right place
to keep track of scanner addresses, but while there here and we
pretend to keep track of unused addresses, the sizes need to be here
too.
Sorted IO_*SIZE defines.
floppies must have been random in 2.x since we reintroduced sorting
on b_pblkno on 1995/03/18. Drivers still initialize b_cylin/b_resid
although this is no longer used.
Removed unused, wrong function fdsize(). (Returning 0 means that the
device exists and has size 0, not that the device doesn't exist.
swaponvp() allows for size 0 by stupidly calling the d_psize function
twice if the size isn't 0. setdumpdev() doesn't allow for it.)
Continued removing /* ARGSUSED */ from drivers.
from a string to an identifier so that it can be used to generate
declarations and strings. It's much easier to stringize an identifier
than to identifize a string. A uniform naming scheme must be used
for the automatically generated things to apply. This is a feature.
Used the module identifer to generate prototypes for the module load,
unload and stat functions. Removed the few prototypes for these that
already existed.
Used the module identifier to generate a unique struct tag in MOD_DEV().
This should probably be done for all the MOD_*() macros.
Moved the trailing semicolon from the MOD_*() macro definitions to the
macro invocations that didn't already (bogusly) have it.
Staticized the module load and unload functions.
Added function return types for the module load, unload and stat functions.
lkm/ibcs2/ibcs2.c:
Included <sys/sysproto.h> to get everything prototyped.
Cleaned up #includes.
lkm/ibcs2/ipfw.c:
Cleaned up #includes.
lkm/linux/linux.c:
The module name had to change from "linux_emulator" to "linux_mod" to
be automatically generated.
Cleaned up #includes.
lkm/syscons/*/*_saver.c:
Completed delcarations of function pointers.
sys/i386/isa/atapi.c:
The module name had to change from "atapi" to "atapi_mod" to be
automatically generated.
sys/i386/isa/wcd.c:
Used the fixed MOD_DEV(). This module has two devices and expanded the
macro in the source instead of fixing it.
The module names had to change from "wcd" and "rwcd" to "wcd_mod" and
"rwcd_mod" to be automatically generated.
sys/pccard/pcic.c:
The module name had to change from "pcic" to "pcic_mod" to be
automatically generated.
Most of this is cleaning up, but there are some functional changes,
doc/comment improvements, error checking, gcc -Wall cleanups. Input buffer
flushing is enabled now, although I'm still not quite certain it's right.
in here to do some conflict detection. The new code doesn't do conflict
detection yet, but it will be implemented in another way.
aic7770.c moved to i386/eisa
