DOS partition type 15 (Extended DOS, LBA) as a container for
DOS logical volumes, so the appropriate slices (e.g. sd1s5)

need for multiple include protection in some other makefiles around the
tree (and helps some elf conditionals).
hopefully become a portable driver usable by all architectures. The api
support files have had to be copied to sys/alpha/include since userland
programs expect to find them in <machine/*.h>.
All the revision history of the i386 syscons has been retained by a

managed to avoid corruption of this variable by luck (the compiler used a
memory read-modify-write instruction which wasn't interruptable) but other
architectures cannot.
With this change, I am now able to 'make buildworld' on the alpha (sfx: the
crowd goes wild...)
Fixed nearby bugs (in linux_alarm()):
- the itimer for the alarm was relative to the epoch instead of relative
to the boot time. This was harmless because the itimer's interval is 0.
- the seconds arg was not checked for validity before converting it to a
possibly different value.
- printf format errors.
Improvements:
Don't use splclock(). splsoftclock() suffices. Don't complicate things
by micro-optimizing interrupt latency.
Minor improvements:
Various micro-optimizations to exploit the specialness of the alarm itimer
and the value 0.
interrupts which now defers them until the transmit queue if filled
up with completed buffers. This has two advantages: first, it reduces
the number of transmitter interrupts to just 1/120th of the rate
that they occured previously, and two, running down many buffers
at once has much improved cache effects.
- ppbus now supports PLIP via the if_plip driver
- ieee1284 infrastructure added, including parallel-port PnP
- port microsequencer added, for scripting the sort of port I/O
that is common with parallel devices without endless calls up and down
through the driver structure.
- improved bus ownership behaviour among the ppbus-using drivers.
- improved I/O chipset feature detection
The vpo driver is now implemented using the microsequencer, leading to
some performance improvements as well as providing an extensive example
of its use.

saver and splash screen can all work properly with syscons. Note that
the splash screen option (SC_SPLASH_SCREEN) does not work yet, as it
requires additional code from msmith.
- Reorganized the splash screen code to match the latest development
in this area.
- Delay screen switch in `switch_scr()' until the screen saver is
stopped, if one is running,
- Start the screen saver immediately, if any, when the `saver' key is
pressed. (There will be another commit for `kbdcontrol' to support
this keyword in the keymap file.)
- Do not always stop the screen saver when mouse-related ioctls
are called. Stop it only if the mouse is moved or buttons are
clicked; don't stop it if any other mouse ioctls are called.
2. Added provision to write userland screen savers. (Contact me if you
are interested in writing one.)
- Added CONS_IDLE, CONS_SAVERMODE, and CONS_SAVERSTART ioctls to
support userland screen savers.
3. Some code clean-ups.
the screen mode is changed even if another vty has larger size.
Reallocate the buffer only when the new screen size is larger than
the current cut buffer size.
When bell is of "quiet" types, the console won't ring (or flush)
if the ringing process is in a background vty.

- probe for PHYs by checking the BMSR (phy status) register instead
of the vendor ID register.
- fix the autonegotiation routine so that it figures out the autonegotiated
modes correctly.
- add tweaks to support the Olicom OC-2326 now that I've actually had
a chance to test one
o Olicom appears to encode the ethernet address in the EEPROM
in 16-bit chunks in network byte order. If we detect an
Olicom card (based on the PCI vendor ID), byte-swap the station
address accordingly.
XXX The Linux driver does not do this. I find this odd since
the README from the Linux driver indicates that patches to
support the Olicom cards came from somebody at Olicom; you'd
think if anyone would get that right, it'd be them. Regardless,
I accepted the word of the disgnoatic program that came bundled
with the card as gospel and fixed the attach routine to make
the station address match what it says.
o The version of the 2326 card that I got for testing is a
strange beast: the card does not look like the picture on
the box in which it was packed. For one thing, the picture
shows what looks like an external NS 83840A PHY, but the
actual card doesn't have one. The card has a TNETE100APCM
chip, which appears to have not only the usual internal
tlan 10Mbps PHY at MII address 32, but also a 10/100 PHY
at MII address 0. Curiously, this PHY's vendor and device ID
registers always return 0x0000. I suspect that this is
a mutant version of the ThunderLAN chip with 100Mbps support.
This combination behaves a little strangely and required the
following changes:
- The internal PHY has to be enabled in tl_softreset().
- The internal PHY doesn't seem to come to life after
detecting the 100Mbps PHY unless it's reset twice.
- If you want to use 100Mbps modes, you have to isolate
the internal PHY.
- If you want to use 10Mbps modes, you have to un-isolate
the internal PHY.
The latter two changes are handled at the end of tl_init(): if
the PHY vendor ID is 0x0000 (which should not be possible if we
have a real external PHY), then tl_init() forces the internal
PHY's BMCR register to the proper values.
