reorganization in rev 1.16 of i386/include/types.h which changed
stdlib.h's use of <machine/types.h>. The problem was the -I. was causing
machine/types.h to come from the current kernel source, while stdlib.h was
coming from /usr/include. /usr/include/stdlib.h is as old as the last
'make world', the machine/types.h was as new as the current source.
- Have the VFS lkm support use vfs_register() etc rather than having it's
own version.
- Have the syscall lkm support use syscall_register() etc rather than
having it's own verison.
- Convert the lkm driver to a module.
suggestions from Greg Lehey some time ago. In the face of multiple
potential file formats, try and give a more sensible error than just
ENOEXEC.
XXX a good case can be made that the loading process is wrong - the linker
should locate the file first (using the search paths etc), then run the
loaders to see if they recognize it. While the present system allows for
the possibility of different search paths for different formats, we do not
use it and it just makes things more complicated than they need to be.

to look up cookies properly, at least for standard controllers.
Cookies are used so that we don't have to pass around lots of args.
All of the dmainit functions use the unit number so it is essential
that we pass them a cookie with the correct unit number.
This may break working configurations if there are bugs in the
dmainit functions like the ones I just fixed for VIA chipsets.
Broken in: rev 1.4 of ide_pci.c and rev.1.139 of wd.c.
Prefetch/postwrite was enabled for the wrong controller. (VIA
is bitwise big endian and we confused ourself by shifting left
instead of right.)

The remote option allows for automatic package fetching and installation
using the package repository found on wcarchive. Naturally, this site
can be overridden with a enviornment variable.
This code uses getobjformat() and getosreldate(). This means when some event
causes the package to be fetched to change (such as e-day) the logic also
needs to be changed.

Instead of initializing UDMA mode, we turned it off and made sure that
it stays off by turning on the "UDMA enable by SET FEATURES" disable.
The damage was limited by bugs in cookie lookup, and suitable
initialization by some BIOSes. The cookie list has slaves before
masters, and the unit number is ignored when cookies are looked up,
so cookie lookup always finds cookies for slaves and the bug only
clobbers slaves, so the bug was harmless for common configurations
with no slaves or only non-UDMA slaves. UDMA initialization for
masters actually worked if the BIOS turns on the UDMA mode bit and
turns off the "UDMA enable by SET FEATURES" disable.
idiot about testing SA_QUIRK_2FM in samount. Fixed.
Removed the NORRLS quirk (to save quirk space) and left
the behaviour of being quiet about failed reserve/release
(failed due Illegal Request) the same.
Added a SF_QUIET_IR for prevent/allow for the same purposes.
* A function device_printf() to make pretty-printing driver messages easier.
* A function device_get_children() to query the children of a device.
* Generic implementations of BUS_ALLOC_RESOURCE and BUS_RELEASE_RESOURCE.
* Change bus_generic_print_child() so that it is actually useful.
- In wb_rxeof(), if the received packet is less than MINCLSIZE bytes,
copy it to an mbuf chain so as to be more frugal in our use of mbuf
clusters.
- The Winbond chip, like the ASIX, wants the 'TX interrupt request'
bit set in the _first_ fragment of a transmitted frame, not the
last. (At least the Winbond manual states this unambiguously; too
bad I wasn't paying attention when I read it the first time.)
- Turn off the transmit threshold mechanism (initialize the threshold
to 0). This effectively puts the chip in 'store and forward' mode
which seems to cut down on transmit errors a little. It may also
reduce transmit performace a bit, but I'm willing to do that if it
means better reliability.
- Normally, the driver allocates an mbuf cluster for each receive
descriptor. This is because we have to be prepared to accomodate up to
1500 bytes (a cluster buffer can hold up to 2K). However, using up a
whole cluster buffer for a tiny packet is a bit of a waste. Also,
it seems to me that sometimes mbufs will linger in the kernel for
a while after being passed out of the driver, which means we might
drain the mbuf cluster pool. The cluster pool is smaller than the
mbuf pool in general, so we do the following: if the packet is less
that MINCLSIZE bytes, then we copy it into a small mbuf chain and
leave the mbuf cluster in place for another go-round. This saves
mbuf clusters in some cases while still allowing them to be used
for heavy traffic exchanges with lots of full-sized frames.
- The transmit descriptor has a bit in the control word which allows
the driver to request that a 'TX OK' interrupt be generated when
a frame has been completed. Sometimes, a frame can be fragmented
across several descriptors. The manual for the real DEC 21140A says
that if this happens, the 'TX interrupt request' bit is only valid
in the descriptor of the last fragment. With the ASIX chip, it seems
the 'TX interrupt request' bit is only valid in the descriptor of
the _first_ fragment. Actually, the manual contains conflicting
information, but I think it's supposed to be the first fragment.
To play it safe, set the bit in both the first and last fragment to
be sure that we get a TX OK interrupt. Without this fix, the driver
can sometimes be late in releasing mbufs from the transmit queue
after transmission.
(<blank@fox.uni-trier.de>) about quirks being set as
arithmetic values, not as bitfields. Add HP, Kennedy
and M4 1/2" reel quirk entries.
Do a lot of gratuitous source changing.
Audit all functions that build ccbs for the tape driver
and decide whether each one can be retried or not.
Still to do is some more state management post errors.
