- A set of new ioctl functions are added to the `psm', `mse' and

- The wheel/roller movement is handled as the `Z' axis movement by the

- Added a set of functions to detect various mice which have additional
features (wheel and buttons) unavailable in the standard PS/2 mouse.
- Refined existing ioctl functions and added new ones. Most important
of all is MOUSE_SETLEVEL which manipulates the output level of the driver.
While the output level remains zero, the output from the `psm' driver is
in the standard PS/2 mouse format (three bytes long). When the level
is set to one, the `psm' driver will send data in the extended format.
At the level two the driver uses the format which is native to the
connected mouse is used. (Meaning that the output from the device is
passed to the caller as is, unmodified.) The `psm' driver will pass
such extended data format as is to the caller if the output level is
two, but emulates the standard format if the output level is zero.

stated above. Sync check logic is refined and now standard.
The sync check can be turned off by the new kernel configuration flags
PSM_CONFIG_NOCHECKSYNC (0x100). PSM_EMULATION has been of little use.

- Created mseioctl() to deal with ioctl functions MOUSE_XXXX.
Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL ioctl will change the
output format from the 5 byte format to the new, extended format

buttons.
- Use constants defined in `mouse.h' rather than magic numbers.
/sys/i386/isa/syscons.c
- Changed scioctl() to reflect the new `console.h' and some of the new
ioctls defined in `mouse.h'. Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL
ioctl will change the `sysmouse' output format from the MouseSystems
5 byte format to the new, extended format so that the caller can
take advantage of Z axis movement and additional buttons.
- Added support for double/triple click actions of the left button and
single click action of the right button in the virtual console. The
left button double click will select a word under the mouse pointer.
The triple click will select a line and the single click of the right
button will extend the selected region to the current position of
the mouse pointer. This will make the cut/paste support more compatible
with xterm.

savers are also modified so that they behave in the same way as the
blank saver on MDA and CGA, although it's not the way these screen
savers are supposed to work, but fading monitor and tickling green
monitor cannot be done on MDA and CGA, AFAIK. So, this is the second
best solution.
As of this change, the current state of support of screen savers is

MDA CGA EGA VGA

fade * * NA OK

snake OK OK OK OK

OK: works
NA: doesn't work, the module cannot be loaded for this adapter.

(It is consistent with uname -a, like the daemon server already is.)

- Use the new add_scrn_saver()/remove_scrn_saver() in syscons.c
to declare loading/unloading of a screen saver. Removed reference
to `current_saver' and the variable `old_saver' as they are not
necessary anymore.
- The blank, fade and green screen savers manipulate VGA registers.
Module loading should fail for non-VGA cards.
- `scrn_blanked' is consistently treated as a number/counter rather

- Some savers touch `scp->start' and `scp->end' to force entire screen
update when stopping themselves. This is unnecessary now because
syscons.c takes care of that.
- cleared up many unused or unnecessary #include statements.
- Removed -DLKM from Makefiles.
YOU NEED TO RECOMPILE BOTH SCREEN SAVERS AND KERNEL AS OF THIS CHANGE.
1. Add new interface, add_scrn_saver()/remove_scrn_saver(), to declare
loading/unloading of a screen saver. The screen saver calls these
functions to notify syscons of loading/unloading events.
It was possible to load multiple savers each of which will try to
remember the previous saver in a local variable (`old_saver'). The
scheme breaks easily if the user load two savers and unload them in a
wrong order; if the first saver is unloaded first, `old_saver' in the
second saver points to nowhere.
Now only one screen saver is allowed in memory at a time.
Soeren will be looking into this issue again later. syscons is
becoming too heavy. It's time to cut things down, rather than adding
more...
2. Make scrn_timer() to be the primary caller of the screen saver
(*current_saver)(). scintr(), scioctl() and ansi_put() update
`scrn_time_stamp' to indicate that they want to stop the screen saver.
There are three exceptions, however.
One is remove_scrn_saver() which need to stop the current screen saver
if it is running. To guard against scrn_timer() calling the saver during
this operation, `current_saver' is set to `none_saver' early.
The others are sccngetc() and sccncheckc(); they will unblank the
screen too. When the kernel enters DDB (via the hot key or a
break point), the screen saver will be stopped by sccngetc().
However, we have a reentrancy problem here. If the system has been in
the middle of the screen saver...
(The screen saver reentrancy problem has always been with sccnputc()
and sccngetc() in the -current source. So, the new code is doing no
worse, I reckon.)
3. Use `mono_time' rather than `time'.
4. Make set_border() work for EGA and CGA in addition to VGA. Do
nothing for MDA.
Changes to the LKM screen saver modules will follow shortly. YOU NEED
TO RECOMPILE BOTH SCREEN SAVERS AND KERNEL AS OF THESE CHANGES.

cursor (CHAR_CURSOR)
1. Reduced the number of calls to set_destructive_cursor(). The
destructive cursor produced noticeable overhead on the system. It was
caused by draw_cursor_image() calling set_destructive_cursor() every
so often.
set_destructive_cursor() absolutely needs to be called when
a) the character code under the cursor has changed either because
the cursor moved or because the screen was updated or the mouse
pointer overlapped the cursor.
b) Or a new font has been loaded,
c) or the video mode has been changed,
d) or the cursor shape has been changed,
e) or the user switched virtual consoles.
2. Turn off the configuration flag CHAR_CURSOR (destructive cursor) in
scattach() if we have a non-VGA card. The destructive cursor works
only for VGA.
3. Removed redundant calls to set_destructive_cursor() in some places.
4. Fixed the "disappearing mouse pointer" problem. The mouse pointer
looked hidden under the destructive cursor when it overlaped the cursor.
A slightly different version of the patch was reviewd and OKed by
sos and ache.
Add a new configuration flag, KBD_NORESET (0x20) to tell scprobe() not
to reset the keyboard.
IBM ThinkPad 535 has the `Fn' key with which the user can perform
certain functions in conjunction with other keys. For example, `Fn' +
PageUP/PageDOWN adjust speaker volume, `Fn' + Home/End change
brightness of LCD screen. It can also be used to suspend the system.
It appears that these functions are implemented at the keyboard level
or the keyboard controller level and totally independent from BIOS or
OS. But, if the keyboard is reset (as is done in scprobe()), they
become unavailable. (There are other laptops which have similar
functions associated with the `Fn' key. But, they aren't affected by
keyboard reset.)
ThinkPad 535 doesn't have switches or buttons to adjust brightness and
volume, or to put the system into the suspend mode. Therefore, it is
essential to preserve these `Fn' key functions in FreeBSD. The new
flag make scprobe() skip keyboard reset.
If this flag is not set, scprobe() behaves in the same say as before.
(If we only knew a way to detect ThinkPad 535, we could skip keyboard
reset automatically, but...)

monochrome adapter.
This is rather strange assumption. If there is no dispaly adapter, the
console driver cannot be any good...
In this patch, scinit() is split into two parts; the first part is
now called scvidprobe() which will detect the presence of video card
at the CGA or MONO buffer address and returns TRUE if found. It is
called during sccnprobe() and scprobe(). Both will fail if no video
card is found.
The second part, whose name stays the same as before, scinit(), is
called from sccninit() and scattach() to complete initialization of
the found video card.
The keyboard probe code is moved from scprobe() to sckbdprobe();
scprobe() now calls scvidprobe() and sckbdprobe() to carry out device
probe. (This is rather a cosmetic change, but it sure makes the code
look better organized.)
