contributions or ideas from Stephen McKay <syssgm@devetir.qld.gov.au>,
Alan Cox <alc@cs.rice.edu>, David Greenman <davidg@freebsd.org> and me:
More usage of the TAILQ macros. Additional minor fix to queue.h.
Performance enhancements to the pageout daemon.
Addition of a wait in the case that the pageout daemon
has to run immediately.
Slightly modify the pageout algorithm.
Significant revamp of the pmap/fork code:
1) PTE's and UPAGES's are NO LONGER in the process's map.
2) PTE's and UPAGES's reside in their own objects.
3) TOTAL elimination of recursive page table pagefaults.
4) The page directory now resides in the PTE object.
5) Implemented pmap_copy, thereby speeding up fork time.
6) Changed the pv entries so that the head is a pointer
and not an entire entry.
7) Significant cleanup of pmap_protect, and pmap_remove.
8) Removed significant amounts of machine dependent
fork code from vm_glue. Pushed much of that code into
the machine dependent pmap module.
9) Support more completely the reuse of already zeroed
pages (Page table pages and page directories) as being
already zeroed.
Performance and code cleanups in vm_map:
1) Improved and simplified allocation of map entries.
2) Improved vm_map_copy code.
3) Corrected some minor problems in the simplify code.
Implemented splvm (combo of splbio and splimp.) The VM code now
seldom uses splhigh.
Improved the speed of and simplified kmem_malloc.
Minor mod to vm_fault to avoid using pre-zeroed pages in the case
of objects with backing objects along with the already
existant condition of having a vnode. (If there is a backing
object, there will likely be a COW... With a COW, it isn't
necessary to start with a pre-zeroed page.)
Minor reorg of source to perhaps improve locality of ref.
1) A spelling error pointed out by Paco Hope.
2) A bug in the range checking routing pointed out by Jim Bray.
3) Enables the setting of frames per second.

unreasonable time. I've got a PCI mainboard that simply doesn't grok
it, so continuing with a warning (and a keyboard that's working
nevertheless :) seems to be better than spin-looping forever.
channel B first as approriate.
Only reset the SCSI bus if the RESET_SCSI bit of SCSICONF is set. This
makes the aic7xxx driver honor all of the configuration settings availible
in SCSI-Select or the ECU.
Fix a benign bug in the reset code that caused us to always wait a full
second after the chip reset. This should shave some time off the probe.
Bug found by pedrosal@nce.ufrj.br (Pedro Salenbauch)
It seems that only the top three sync rates are doubled when in ultra mode,
so update the syncrates table as appropriate.
Found by "Dan Willis" <dan@plutotech.com> and his SCSI bus analyzer
channel B first as approriate.
Even if the BIOS is diabled, the ECU will still set the primary channel
bit, SCSI ID, RESET_SCSI bit, and BOFF_TIME, so use them.
boundary, which means that it doesn't mark the start of the data
section (which is then inaccessible to the programmer ??).
Hopefully fixes recent locore reboot problems.
second delay. My ps/2 mouse is now found reliably on my ThinkPad (it
didn't before) and still works on my NEC Versa.

config file instead of hard-coding it in the driver. No functional
differences.
This is based on the code Richard Wiwatowski <rjwiwat@adelaide.on.net>
sent to the mailing list.
- Prepend PSM_ to some defines to avoid any possible name-space problems
- Use some already defined constants instead of magic #'s where appropriate.
[ No functional changes (yet) ]
it empties all of the 256 byte incoming fifo, as it can spend more time
processing one port than intended, especially if data is streaming in
at 115.2K. The port fifo will be emptied and dumped into the tty system
and left until next time. I've been running this for quite some time on
one of my systems here.
Also, if the tty layer is blocked or full it lets the hardware assert the
flow control rather than loosing the data.
Compile for FreeBSD-2.2
Fix some compile warnings about function declarations
-current's VM include files have changed lately, this needed to be updated.
Use correct major number.
This is now two seperate drivers that support (I think) all of Stallions's
range, including the high performance intelligent cards, and their older
cards.

boards by Greg Ungerer (gerg@stallion.oz.au). (v0.0.1 alpha)
This is a multiple import of all revisions available to build up
a history.
This driver supports only some of the Stallion range, in particular, not
the highly intelligent cards. That comes in shortly.
