an UART interface could get stuck when a new interrupt condition
arose while servicing a previous interrupt. Since an interrupt was
already pending, no new interrupt would be triggered.
Avoid infinite recursion by flushing the Rx FIFO and marking an
overrun condition when we could not move the data from the Rx
FIFO to the receive buffer in toto. Failure to flush the Rx FIFO
would leave the Rx ready condition pending.
Note that the SAB 82532 already did this due to the nature of the
chip.
from the sparc64 subtree, which breaks building non-sparc64 platforms
in the event the sparc64 subtree does not exist.
The problem is specific to the module, because non-module builds are
affected by the presence or absence of "device ebus" in the kernel
configuration.

precisely where locking would be needed before adding it, but it
seems uart(4) draws slightly too much attention to have it without
locking for too long.
The lock added is a spinlock that protects access to the underlying
hardware. As a first and obvious stab at this, each method of the
hardware interface grabs the lock. Roughly speaking this serializes
the methods. Exceptions are the probe, attach and detach methods.
o change timeout to MPSAFE callout
o restructure rule deletion to deal with locking requirements
o replace static buffer used for ipfw control operations with malloc'd storage

o change time to MPSAFE callout
o make debug printfs conditional on DUMMYNET_DEBUG and runtime controllable
by net.inet.ip.dummynet.debug
o make boot-time printf dependent on bootverbose

o replace magic constants with #defines (e.g. ETHER_ADDR_LEN)
o move mib variables to net.link.ether.bridge with backwards compatible
entries for well-known items maintained under BURN_BRIDGES
o revamp debugging support so it is conditioanlly compiled with BRIDGE_DEBUG
(on currently) and runtime controlled by net.link.ether.bridge.debug
o change timeout to MPSAFE callout
o optimize lookup for common case of two interfaces
o optimize forwarding path to take IFNET lock only when needed
o make boot-time printf dependent on bootverbose
o sundry style changes (ANSI decls, extraneous spaces, etc.)

a problem for command responses since we rarely ever filled the queue.
However, adapter-initiated commands have a much smaller queue and could
tickle this bug. It's possible that this might fix the recently reported
problems with the aac-2120s, though I haven't been able to reproduce the
problem locally.

the description of the data latch registers (they were described as
readonly).
Added some better and worse aliases for standard registers, mostly taken
from the 16950 data sheet. Define deprecated aliases in terms of the
preferred one.
Don't define com_efr in terms of com_fifo. It is unrelated (in a
different bank).
Merged comments to match (put them at the right of the #defines instead
of duplicating them).
Sorted the resulting sections on UART type and register bank. Added a
comment for each bank.
to ns16550.h. The organization of these files was sort of backwards.
The bits in the registers have no driver or bus dependencies but they
but the offsets of the registers in bus space are very bus-dependent.
However, it does no harm to keep the definitions of the register offsets
in ns16550.h provided they are thought of as internal ns*50 offsets.
that has been recorded earlier and overwrite it again later by
reading it directly from the EEPROM again.
Read the MAC address from the PAR0/PAR1 registers instead, which
are autoloaded on reboot.
Tested on AN985, AN983B. According to the datasheets, it should
also work for the AL981 (I don't have such a chip on a card at home)

calculate smoothed signal quality data for each node.
o add a 16-deep history buffer to each driver-private node storage that
holds rssi and antenna info for received frames
o override the default per-node "get rssi" method to return an average
rssi value based on samples collected over the last second
o enable beacon reception so even idle systems maintain a running history
of signal quality
This data may also be useful for improving the rate control algorithm.

o add a per-node method for returning the "current RSSI" for a node
o create a default method that returns ni_rssi which is the rssi for
the last received frame
o use the per-node "get rssi" method to return data for the RID's

o mask off interrupt status bits that we don't care about so we don't do
the wrong thing; this fixes a problem where the beacon miss interrupt status
bit is delivered together with other status bits when operating in monitor
mode (we would post a beacon miss swi and then do the wrong thing)
In particular, let drivers send up control frames so we can dispatch
them to bpf in monitor mode.
This is the first (small) step to adding more functionality such as
power save mode.
was added to the fast path to support the COM_IIR_RXRDYBUG() case even
when that case is not configured. This increased the relative overhead
of sio input by almost 25% in the worst case and by 2-3% in the usual
case (usually only about 0.2% absolute per port at 115200 bps). The
quick fix is to significantly pessimize only the COM_IIR_RXRDYBUG()
case.

special signal-delivery protections for setugid processes. In the
event that a system is relying on "unusual" signal delivery to
processes that change their credentials, this can be used to work
around application problems.
Also, add SIGALRM to the set of signals permitted to be delivered to
setugid processes by unprivileged subjects.
