I simply forgot that I'd already proven this to be a "really good idea that
unfortunately didn't work at all" the *last* time I tried it. Now
I remember. Hmmm. I WILL defeat this evil problem.
udev_t in the kernel but still called dev_t in userland.
Provide functions to manipulate both types:
major() umajor()
minor() uminor()
makedev() umakedev()
dev2udev() udev2dev()
For now they're functions, they will become in-line functions
after one of the next two steps in this process.
Return major/minor/makedev to macro-hood for userland.
Register a name in cdevsw[] for the "filedescriptor" driver.
In the kernel the udev_t appears in places where we have the
major/minor number combination, (ie: a potential device: we
may not have the driver nor the device), like in inodes, vattr,
cdevsw registration and so on, whereas the dev_t appears where
we carry around a reference to a actual device.
In the future the cdevsw and the aliased-from vnode will be hung
directly from the dev_t, along with up to two softc pointers for
the device driver and a few houskeeping bits. This will essentially
replace the current "alias" check code (same buck, bigger bang).
A little stunt has been provided to try to catch places where the
wrong type is being used (dev_t vs udev_t), if you see something
not working, #undef DEVT_FASCIST in kern/kern_conf.c and see if
it makes a difference. If it does, please try to track it down
(many hands make light work) or at least try to reproduce it
as simply as possible, and describe how to do that.
Without DEVT_FASCIST I belive this patch is a no-op.
Stylistic/posixoid comments about the userland view of the <sys/*.h>
files welcome now, from userland they now contain the end result.
Next planned step: make all dev_t's refer to the same devsw[] which
means convert BLK's to CHR's at the perimeter of the vnodes and
other places where they enter the game (bootdev, mknod, sysctl).
Use colons instead of semi-colons in the default init_path to behave like
UNIX instead of DOS.

bad math: it does not handle page-boundary conditions, and will not
end up mapping all of the requested addresses. This will cause a panic:
page fault during probe on some systems. I have a machine that will
panic every time (when using the dpt driver) on kernel probe when there
are 5 drives installed. When there are 4 drives, it is fine.
Fix is to always allocate/deallocate an extra page.
There is also a bonus splx() fix on an early error return.

displace a real driver.
Revert rev 1.109.
Pick up a few things from elsewhere (a couple of SiS id's).
As an *experiment*, have the chip* driver claim (for reporting purposes)
IDE controllers if there isn't another PCI-aware ide or ata driver to
grab them. I've exported the match function since it could be used from
the ata-all.c code replacing ata_pcimatch() - but I have not touched the
ata code. I'd like to catch a few more devices this way, including USB
and other bridges etc.
massive thwunking to include an XS_CHANNEL value. Some changes of how
parameters are reported to outer layers (including bus, e.g.). Yet more
stirring around in isp_mboxcmd to try and get it right. Decode of 1080/1240
NVRAM.
with other reset handling in rev.1.83 but broke it in rev.1.120. The
breakage didn't seem to cause any problems even on the system which had
problems ("extra" interrupts and botched handling thereof) before rev.1.83.
It only affects multi-floppy systems anyway.
after some of the previous commits). Add in support for the 1240
dual channel ISP card. Try the dance of unmapping a PCI interrupt
if we don't configure (if that ever works it'll be helpful).
SUPPORTED). Add a SA_FLAG_TAPE_FROZEN for (see below).
Add a queue_count field to softc.
Add HP T20* Travan-5 like tape device as a FIXED/512 type device.
Works for me. Add TANDBERG SLR5 as a variable SA_QUIRK_1FM device.
Change VIPER 2525 to 1024 byte blocksize. It's possible other
drives should change too, but see below..
Change argument to sagetparams to be pointer to a sa_comp_t union-
this can be either a DATA COMPRESSION or a DEVICE CONFIGURATION
page. In general compression now tries to use the DATA COMPRESSION
page and if that fails tries the DEVICE CONFIGURATION page.
Change close routine to not rewind tape if there's a failure in either
writing filemarks or in backing over one of two filemarks for a 2FM
at EOT tape- instead mark the tape as 'frozen' and print a message
saying that either an OFFLINE or REWIND or an MTEOM command is needed
to clear this state (all bring certainty back to tape position). Fix
sastrategy to not allow I/O to a frozen tape.
Add MTIOCGETEOTMODEL/MTIOCSETEOTMODEL ioctls that get and set the EOT
model for a tape drive (you can now dynamically change whether it's
a 2 FM @ EOT or 1FM at EOT tape device). This ought to give folks
something to handle the QIC drives we don't know about. Correctly propagate
record of compression algorithm back. Clear FROZEN flag for EOM, REWIND
and OFFLINE (and RETENSION and ERASE) cases.
Fix an egregious bug in sadone that had left the device queue frozen
for deferred (for fixed mode case) errors.
Add comment in samount about how useless the test unit ready is for
invalidating a mount (this has to be fixed later).
Fix residual calculation (per Eivind) in saerror so that negative values
for tape records being too large for the supplied buffer get caught. Do
some other saerrro cleanup.
