significantly reduces booting time when there is broken floppy disk drive,
controller, cable, BIOS, etc.
When the floppy controller interface is correctly implemented, disk change
signal (DSKCHG) is reflected in the Digital Input Register (DIR) at 0x3f7.
However, there are many cases that the signal is unusable. Moreover, some
BIOS does not reserve the port at all. In those cases, the register may not
function.
Use it to reset controller and to select data rate. According to Intel
80277AA datasheet, software reset behaves the same as DOR reset except
that it is self clearing. National Semiconductor PC8477B datasheet says
the same. As a side effect, we no longer use Configuration Control
Register (CCR) at 0x3f7 for these controllers, which is often missing
in modern hardware.
mutex.
- Don't use callout_drain() to stop the toffhandle callout while holding the
fdc mutex (this could deadlock) in functions called from softclock
(callouts aren't allowed to do voluntary sleeps). Instead, use
callout_stop(). Note that since we hold the associated mutex and are now
using callout_init_mtx(), callout_stop() is just as effective as
callout_drain(). (Though callout_drain() is still needed in detach to
make sure softclock isn't contesting on our mutex before we destroy the
mutex.)
- Remove unused callout 'tohandle' from softc.

Rather than have a twisty maze of special case allocations, move
instead to a data driven allocation. This should be the most robust
way to cope with the resource problems that the multiplicity of ways
of encoding 5 registers that have the misfortune of not being a power
of 2 nor contiguous.
Also, make it less impossible that pccard will work. I've not been able
to get my libretto floppy working, but it now fails later than before.
phk and I had similar ideas on this during the 5.3 release cycle, but
it wasn't until recently that I could test more than one allocation
scenario.

Use kthread_exit() instead of falling through the end of the worker

driver. Trim its fingernails by removing some useless bits before
fixing the 'thread not terminated on detach' problem.
o dmacnt is no longer used now that we allocate at attach time. Remove
it from struct fdc_data.
o ISPNP was only ever set, but never tested. It used to be used for the
allocation routines to change how it allocated resources. Since that's
no longer necessary, retire the flag.
o ISPCMICA was only ever tested, but never set. GC it. This removes
a special case in determining the drive type. The drive type is
now set in fdc_pcmcia.c, so the hack isn't needed anymore. Sadly,
this isn't tested with a Y-E Data pcmcia floppy drive because there
are a number of other issues that preclude it from working.
o Fix ifdef for reading from the rtc. I'm of the opinion that this ifdef
should be moved into fdc_isa.c, but not today as ideally there'd be
other fixes to the probing of children. So now we just read it on
i386 ! pc98 (there's no #define for MACHINE_ARCH, just MACHINE, hence
this slightly inelegant kludge) and amd64. The PC98 exclusion likely
isn't meaningful since pc98 uses a different driver, but will be when
merging of the pc98 floppy code into this driver is complete (this is the
other reason I think this block of code belongs outside fdc.c).
All of these changes are safe to MT5.
reserving it at use time is more miserly, low memory (< 16MB)
evaporates quickly on many systems, so there may not be any suitable
buffers available. This specifically doesn't use the newer, fancier
isa_dma_init to ease merging to 5.

o Allow for up to 3 resource I/O ranges to be given for the floppy
controller, rather than just two that are allowed for now.
o Make sure that we can work with either a base address of 0x3f0 or 0x3f2.
o Create new inline functions to access the YE DATA's unique BDCR register.
o Update pccard attachment to add the fd device.
o Do some minor style(9) polishing.
# I'm guessing that the fdc pccard attachment broke some time ago, since

Centralize the fdctl_wr() function by adding the offset in

Bugfix: Read the drive-change signal from the correct place:
same place as the ctl register.
Remove the cdevsw{} related code and implement a GEOM class.
Ditch the state-engine and park a thread on each controller
to service the queue.
Make the interrupt FAST & MPSAFE since it is just a simple
wakeup(9) call.
Rely on a per controller mutex to protect the bioqueues.
Grab GEOMs topology lock when we have to and Giant when
ISADMA needs it. Since all access to the hardware is
isolated in the per controller thread, the rest of the
driver is lock & Giant free.
Create a per-drive queue where requests are parked while
the motor spins up. When the motor is running the requests
are purged to the per controller queue. This allows
requests to other drives to be serviced during spin-up.
Only setup the motor-off timeout when we finish the last
request on the queue and cancel it when a new request
arrives. This fixes the bug in the old code where the motor
turned off while we were still retrying a request.
Make the "drive-change" work reliably. Probe the drive on
first opens. Probe with a recal and a seek to cyl=1 to
reset the drive change line and check again to see if we
have a media.
When we see the media disappear we destroy the geom provider,
create a new one, and flag that autodetection should happen
next time we see a media (unless a specific format is configured).
Add sysctl tunables for a lot of drive related parameters.
If you spend a lot of time waiting for floppies you can
grab the i82078 pdf from Intels web-page and try tuning
these.
Add sysctl debug.fdc.debugflags which will enable various
kinds of debugging printfs.
Add central definitions of our well known floppy formats.
Simplify datastructures for autoselection of format and
call the code at the right times.
Bugfix: Remove at least one piece of code which would have
made 2.88M floppies not work.
Use implied seeks on enhanced controllers.
Use multisector transfers on all controllers. Increase
ISADMA bounce buffers accordingly.
Fall back to single sector when retrying. Reset retry count
on every successful transaction.
Sort functions in a more sensible order and generally tidy
up a fair bit here and there.
Assorted related fixes and adjustments in userland utilities.
WORKAROUNDS:
Do allow r/w opens of r/o media but refuse actual write
operations. This is necessary until the p4::phk_bufwork
branch gets integrated (This problem relates to remounting
not reopening devices, see sys/*/*/${fs}_vfsops.c for details).
Keep PC98's private copy of the old floppy driver compiling
and presumably working (see below).
TODO (planned)
Move probing of drives until after interrupts/timeouts work
(like for ATA/SCSI drives).
TODO (unplanned)
This driver should be made to work on PC98 as well.
Test on YE-DATA PCMCIA floppy drive.
Fix 2.88M media.
This is a MT5 candidate (depends on the bioq_takefirst() addition).

Also:
* Fix some resource leaks when attach fails.
* Remove the FDC_ATTACHED flag. It was supposed to prevent multiple
unloads but this is not necessary.
* Add an fdtype ivar. This will be the equivalent of fd->type.
* Move enabling the FIFO to the end of attach.
* Unify reset code into fdc_initial_reset().
* Add fdc_write_ivar().
* Update isa and pccard attachments accordingly.
* Set the flags unconditionally in probe since they may be overridden by
other probe routines. Both before and now, we're depending on probe
being called a final time on the winning driver so the flags we get are
the ones we intended.
* Use the bus accessor macros instead of defining our own.
* Remove duplicate assigns of fd->type.

adding acpi front ends.
Still need to cleanup the MI part of the driver because it isn't as
bus independent as it could be.

resources. (Note that the correct range is 0x3f7,0x3f0-0x3f5.) Such
devices will be detected as follows:
fdc0: <Enhanced floppy controller (i82077, NE72065 or clone)> port
0x3f7,0x3f4-0x3f5,0x3f2-0x3f3,0x3f0-0x3f1 irq 6 drq 2 on acpi0
To do this, we find the minimum and maximum start addresses for the
resources and use them as the base for the IO and control ports.
