device and which also applies to the children. This is very usefull for
drivers for the various subordinate busses so they don't need to fiddle
with the OFW node of their parent themselves. As SBus busses hang of the
nexus and we don't use the ofw_bus interface for nexus devices, yet, this
would also require special knowledge about this in the drivers for the
SBus children which these shouldn't need to have.
This includes switching to use an unshifted IGN in the sc_ign member of
the sbus(4) softc internally.
- For SBus child devices where there are variants that are actually split
split into two SBus devices (as opposed to the first half of the device
being a SBus device and the second half hanging off of the first one)
like 'auxio' and 'SUNW,fdtwo' or 'dma' and 'esp' probe the SBus device
which is a prerequisite to the driver attaching to the second one with
a lower order. This saves us from dealing with different probe orders
in the respective device drivers which generally is more hackish.
- Remove a stale comment about the 'specials' array above the attaching
of the child devices. This is a remnant of the NetBSD/sparc origin of
this code. There the 'specials' array is also used to probe certain
devices which are prerequisites to others first. Why NetBSD soley
relies on the devices having the expected order in the OFW tree on
sparc64 isn't clear to me, as far as I can tell OFW doesn't guaranteed
such things.
subset ("compatible", "device_type", "model" and "name") of the standard
properties in drivers for devices on Open Firmware supported busses. The
standard properties "reg", "interrupts" und "address" are not covered by
this interface because they are only of interest in the respective bridge
code. There's a remaining standard property "status" which is unclear how
to support properly but which also isn't used in FreeBSD at present.
This ofw_bus kobj-interface allows to replace the various (ebus_get_node(),
ofw_pci_get_node(), etc.) and partially inconsistent (central_get_type()
vs. sbus_get_device_type(), etc.) existing IVAR ones with a common one.
This in turn allows to simplify and remove code-duplication in drivers for
devices that can hang off of more than one OFW supported bus.
- Convert the sparc64 Central, EBus, FHC, PCI and SBus bus drivers and the
drivers for their children to use the ofw_bus kobj-interface. The IVAR-
interfaces of the Central, EBus and FHC are entirely replaced by this. The
PCI bus driver used its own kobj-interface and now also uses the ofw_bus
one. The IVARs special to the SBus, e.g. for retrieving the burst size,
remain.
Beware: this causes an ABI-breakage for modules of drivers which used the
IVAR-interfaces, i.e. esp(4), hme(4), isp(4) and uart(4), which need to be
recompiled.
The style-inconsistencies introduced in some of the bus drivers will be
fixed by tmm@ in a generic clean-up of the respective drivers later (he
requested to add the changes in the "new" style).
- Convert the powerpc MacIO bus driver and the drivers for its children to
use the ofw_bus kobj-interface. This invloves removing the IVARs related
to the "reg" property which were unused and a leftover from the NetBSD
origini of the code. There's no ABI-breakage caused by this because none
of these driver are currently built as modules.
There are other powerpc bus drivers which can be converted to the ofw_bus
kobj-interface, e.g. the PCI bus driver, which should be done together
with converting powerpc to use the OFW PCI code from sparc64.
- Make the SBus and FHC front-end of zs(4) and the sparc64 eeprom(4) take
advantage of the ofw_bus kobj-interface and simplify them a bit.
