pnp system in freebsd, I'm not sure how useful this will be, but my
1542CP seems to work well in plug and play mode and does seem to
probe correctly at all the oddball addresses/irq/drqs that I tried.
[[
I was unable to get /kernel.conf or /kernel.config to read in, so
I wasn't able to verify that this method of userconfig works. that's
one thing that makes pnp so hard to use in the current scheme.
Pointers to the right new way of doing this accepted.

o Add some kludges to maybe bring support for 1540A/1542A into the
driver. Since I have no 154xA cards, and the only person I know
that has them hasn't given me feedback, I'm making this commit
blind.
o Honor unit numbers that are in the config file now. This allows one
to hard wire the unit numbers (and have high unit numbers for plug
and pray devices, which can't seem to be hardwired) and have the
cards not migrate from aha1 -> aha0 should aha0 go on the fritz. I
didn't verify that hard wired scsi busses would work, but did verify
that hard wired aha addresses did work to a limited extent. Both
aha0 and aha1 must be hardwired, or when the card that was in aha0
goes away, the probe for aha0 might pick up the card that otherwise
would have been aha1.
- Bring down the splash screen when a vty is opened for the first
time.
- Make sure the splash screen/screen saver is stopped before
switching vtys.
- Read and save initial values in the BIOS data area early.
VESA BIOS may change BIOS data values when switching modes.
- Fix missing '&' operator.
- Move ISA specific part of driver initialization to syscons_isa.c.

one in the kernel source, and that one is already used for modules.
I don't _think_ this will hurt releases, aout-to-elf, etc, but it is
possible. In all the cases I've looked at, config(8) has been
generated straight after a make world, so if /usr/sbin/config exists and
is the right version for the kernel, then we can pretty much count on
/usr/bin/gensetdefs being there too.
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.
IDE hardare. The attempted fix in rev.1.182 was a no-op except for
adding dozens of style bugs. The undocumented options ALI_V and
DISABLE_PCI_IDE go away as a side effect. ALI_V was a no-op because
rev.1.182 was a no-op. DISABLE_PCI_IDE didn't actually disable
PCI IDE. It disabled the buggy code in wdprobe() at a cost of
completely breaking support for Promise controllers.
Broken in: rev.1.139
if option CY_PCI_FASTINTR is configured and mapping the irq to a
fastintr is possible. Unfortunately, this has to be optional because
pci_map_int_right() doesn't handle the INTR_EXCL flag right --
INTR_EXCL is honoured even if the interrupt needs to be non-exclusive
for other devices to work.
buffer had to be left on the head of the queue for [bufq]disksort()
to sort against. This isn't right for devices that can support multiple
active i/o's, and only the fd driver did it. "Fixing" this in rev.1.36
of ufs_disksubr.c broke the fd driver in much the same way as rev.1.52
of <sys/buf.h> broke it (see rev.1.119).

Because of the changes, you are required to update your kernel
configuration file now!
The files in sys/dev/syscons are still i386-specific (but less so than
before), and won't compile for alpha and PC98 yet.
syscons still directly accesses the video card registers here and
there; this will be rectified in the later stages.
