sio.c and sioreg.c changed to allow autodetecting the RB_SERIAL flag
passed by the boot blocks so that the kernel can switch to 'serial
console' mode automagically. 'options COMCONSOLE' can still be specified
to force the kernel to always use the serial port as a console.
CONUNIT and CONADDR can also be specified in the kernel config file
if the user wants to shift the console to a different port.

properly from the beginning:
1) The `kern_devconf' struct should be a part of the driver's
`softc' structure (now it is).
2) The `description' should say what the device actually is,
rather than just giving a model number (now it does).
3) The device should be registered even if the probe fails, so
that it can be reconfigured later.
4) For netifs, the device state should follow the IFF_UP flag.
Other network interfaces should follow this example. (Please?) Eventually
there should be a rundown routine doing the equivalent of setting IFF_UP
off, and perhaps more if warranted.

Don't clobber the FPU state when there is an FPU exception. Just clear

SIGFPE handlers should normally return via longjmp(), which restores a
good FPU state (as before). Returning from a SIGFPE handler may leave
the FPU in the wrong state (as before).
Clear the busy latch _after_ clearing the exception flags so that there

This is new version of Seagate ST01/02, Future Domain TMC-885, TMC-950
SCSI driver for FreeBSD. I started from the 2.0R version and mostly
rewrote it. New features are:
1) New probe algorithm. Old driver read the BIOS region of the adapter
memory and find the copyright string. The problem was in the BIOS itself:
it conflicted with IDE disks. The solution was to unplug it and
make the probe algorithm to work without it.
2) Proper timeout handling in numerous places where the driver
polls waiting for some event.
3) Assembler flagments added in critical places, mostly for data transfer
to of from the target. It was possible to make it faster,
but at the price of decreasing reliability.
4) Target-dependent delays when waiting for REQ deassert event.
Some devices seem to be slower (CD-ROMS, some tape drives),
and some seem to be too fast (disks). The driver tests the REQ
deassert timeout for each target and then uses it for polling.
5) Device flags added for SCSI parity control and sense request
priority control.
6) Generic cleanup, after which the driver became much more readable
(at least by me:).
7) Target data parity error logging is limited to avoid log file overflow.
8) Manual page added.

This code is mostly taken from the 1.1 port (which was in turn taken from

1) ntp_gettime() is now a MIB variable rather than a system call. A few
fiddles are done in libc to make it behave the same.
2) mono_time does not participate in the PLL adjustments.
3) A new interface has been defined (in <machine/clock.h>) for doing
possibly machine-dependent things around the time of the clock update.
This is used in Pentium kernels to disable interrupts, set `time', and
reset the CPU cycle counter as quickly as possible to avoid jitter in
microtime(). Measurements show an apparent resolution of a bit more than
8.14usec, which is reasonable given system-call overhead.

First round of floppy changes. Try making `fd' more robust.
New features:
. ioctl command for setting the drive type (density etc.); restricted
to the super-user
. ioctl for getting/seting `drive options'; currently only option
is FDOPT_NORETRY: inhibit the usual retries; used when verifying
a newly formatted track
Fixes:
. function prototypes
. made all internal functions `static'
. cleaned up & corrected .h files
. restructured, to make the chaotic function sequence more rational
. compiled with -Wall, and cleared all warnings
. introduced a mirror for the (write-only) `digital output register',
to avoid the current kludge
. device probing completed by seeking/recalibrating, and looking
for track 0 being found
. holding the controller down in reset state while it is idle (and
thus saving allot of headaches)
. make requests fail that are not a multiple of the (physical)
sector size
. removed the fixed physical sector size (512 bytes), allowing for any
size the controller could handle (128/256/512/1024 bytes)
. replaced some silly messages
. fixed the TRACE* macro usage, debugging reports should be complete
now again (debugging output is HUGE! though)
. removed fd_timeout for SEEK command; seeks are always reported by
the controller to succeed, since the `success' only refers to the
controller's idea of success - there is no hardware line to tell about
the seek end (other than the `track 0' line)
. catch SENSEI's that report about a `terminated due to READY changed'
status - could happen after a controller reset
. converted ``hz / <something>'' divide operations to divisors that are
powers of two, so gcc can optimize them into shifts
. write/format operations are checked against a write-protected medium
now *prior* starting the operation
. error reports of `invalid command' and `wrong cylinder' will cause
shortcuts in the retrier() now
. fixed a bug in the retrier() causing bogus block numbers to be reported
. fdformat() does care for errors now
Known Bugs:
. no attempts have been made (yet) to improve the performance
. sometimes, bogus ``seek/recalib failed'' messages are logged; this
is still a bug in the driver, but it's not harmful since it's
usually caught by the retrier()

implemented entirely with polled I/O, and is intended to drive CD-ROM's, not
disks and tapes. It will run disks and tapes if asked to, but it isn't a
very good idea to do so. Transfer-rates max out at 600-700 kbyte/sec.
There is one problem: when write-requests get over 8192 bytes, the pseudo-DMA
stalls. This is only a problem if you dd(1) to a raw-device of some kind,
for mounting a disk it is ok. I have circumvented this by disabling the
pseudo-DMA in those cases.
It's very unlikely that I will spend more time on improving the performance
of this driver, it can do what I want it to now: install from a CD-ROM, and I
don't see any benefit in actually adding interrupts to the driver, considering
that performance never will be better than 700 kbyte/sec anyway.
You can install it under 1.1.5 too, by adding the lines to files.i386, your
config-file and copying pas.c and ic/ncr_5380.h over.
I will fix any bugs I can get a handle on.

another place option !defined(DISKLABEL_UNPROTECTED) was needed.
