network adapters. These are all PCMCIA devices (the ISA version is a
PCMCIA to ISA bridge with a PCMCIA card plugged into it). Also add a
wicontrol utility to read and write some of the card's parameters.
Note: I do not have access to a WavePOINT access point, so I have only
been able to test this driver in ad-hoc (point to point) mode. The
wicontrol utility allows programming the desired service set name (SSID)
and enabling BSS mode, but I can't tell for sure if it works (I know the
card switches modes, but I can't verify that it joins a service set
correctly).
This driver was written using information gleaned from the Lucent HCF Light
library, which is an API library designed to simplify driver development
for devices based on the Lucent Hermes chip. Unfortunately, the HCF Light
is missing certain features (like 802.11 frame encapsulation!) which are
available only in the proprietary complete HCF code, which is not available
to the public. This driver uses none of the HCF Light code: it's very ugly
and contaminated by the GPL. IP and ARP packets are encapsulated as 802.11
frames, everything else is encapsulated as 802.3.
(It would be easier to just get the Hermes programming manual, but that's
not publically available either. For those who are wondering, the Linux
WaveLAN/IEEE driver uses the proprietary HCF code, which is provided in
object code form only. So much for supporting open source sofware.)
Multicast filter support is implemented, however it appears that the
filter doesn't work: programming in one IP mutlicast group enables them
all.
bug in the stats accounting (nicSendBDs counter was bogus when TX ring was
configured to be in host memory).
Update if_tireg.h to look for new firmware fix level.
* Make the network code in the bootstrap more chatty (helps debugging)
* Add nfs root stuff to cpu_rootconf(). I also added a check to make sure
it really was netbooting which allows the use of the same kernel for local
and network boots.
* Tweak the de driver so that it takes the speed setting from the console
for the alpha (some PWSs have broken de chipsets). This is the same
behaviour as NetBSD/alpha.

if there's benefit to setting it to the exact amount, it appears the
card has 32K of ram, and 8K is used for outgoing packets, that would
be something like a queue limit of 5 packets. I don't think that's
useful...)

If a drive has gone down and has dirty buffers associated with it,
we'll get a panic when we try to vn_close it. Check for this
situation and discard any buffers; they're toast anyway.
Only complain about usage count if DEBUG_WARNINGS is set.

Change parameter name from drivename to devicename.
Get the check for a referenced drive right.
If the partition isn't a vinum drive, set the last error to ENODEV.
vinum_scandisk:
Change parameter name from drivename [] to devicename [].
resource. Avoids useless interrupts occurring between the allocation
of the interrupt resource and the final initialisation of the
kernel. Cause of these interrupts is unknown (a resuming device?).
from ever catching up to the transmit consumer index. We can't let this
happen because ti_txeof() depends on the assumption that producer == consumer
means the ring is empty, and producer != consumer means the ring has some
number of active descriptors in it.
This will allow software teletext/intercast/subtitles decoding

Based on code from Hiroki Mori <mori@infocity.co.jp> but reworked by
myself.
Add new #ifdef. By defining BKTR_NO_MSP_RESET you can prevent the
MSP34xx being reset by the bt848 driver. This is handy
if you pre-initialise the MSP34xx stereo audio chip in another
operating system first (eg MS Windows).

s/suser/suser_xxx/
2:
Add new function: suser(struct proc *), prototyped in <sys/proc.h>.
3:
s/suser_xxx(\([a-zA-Z0-9_]*\)->p_ucred, \&\1->p_acflag)/suser(\1)/
The remaining suser_xxx() calls will be scrutinized and dealt with
later.
There may be some unneeded #include <sys/cred.h>, but they are left
as an exercise for Bruce.
More changes to the suser() API will come along with the "jail" code.
