cea557add0 Extend coverage of the MK_IPX build option to the following:
- <netipx> headers [1]
- IPX library (libipx)
- IPX support in ifconfig(8)
- IPXrouted(8)
- new MK_NCP option

New MK_NCP build option controls:

- <netncp> and <fs/nwfs> headers
- NCP library (libncp)
- ncplist(1) and ncplogin(1)
- mount_nwfs(8)
- ncp and nwfs kernel modules

User knobs: WITHOUT_IPX, WITHOUT_IPX_SUPPORT, WITHOUT_NCP.

[1] <netsmb/netbios.h> unconditionally uses <netipx> headers
so they are still installed.  This needs to be dealt with.

5211d26f0b kernel install script (missed in previous commit) 2006-03-08 18:03:09 +00:00
Sam Leffler
9fe7600bbe Revamp base system packaging of kernels to enable up/smp selection
at runtime and to support distributing additional kernels:
o remove kernel from the base tarball
o add new kernel tarballs
o build + package both SMP and GENERIC kernels when an <arch>/conf/SMP
  config file is present
o add sysinstall support for multiple kernels
o update sysinstall to probe for the number of cpus on a system
  and auto-select smp/up kernel accordingly
o add a post-kernels install hook to fixup /boot/kernel
o add -ldevinfo to boot crunch for sysinstall's cpu probing logic

Notes:
1. On HEAD this code is not currently used because GENERIC kernels
   include SMP.  This work is mainly intended for RELENG_6 where the
   GENERIC kernel is UP.  If HEAD changes to match then just enable
   WITH_SMP in sysinstall/Makefile.
2. The cpu probing support is done with acpi and MPTable; this means
   some systems will require work for auto-detection to work.
3. The handling of /boot/kernel may need to be revisited; for now
   we rename one kernel at the last moment (SMP if installed, otherwise
   GENERIC).  There are other, possibly better, approaches.

Lots of help from ru, emaste, scottl, and jhb.
