isn't important; it is only used to prevent symlink loops from looping
forever. 32 is a quite reasonable default.

1. add iosize command, and show it in `ls'
2. add a probe command
3. add an attach command
[the latter 2 do the obvious thing - call the device's routine and print the
status returned].
You will normally have to have a VLB or other 32bit IDE "controller" for
this to work.
Depending on your setup, this may gain you 20-100 % speed from your disk.

message instead of relying on the fact that we are scheduled to send them.
The old method worked 99.9% of the time, but someone reported some periferals
that did MSG_REJECT at odd times (sometimes before we could send an SDTR
or WDTR) that we would construe as the response to an SDTR or WDTR message.
This also removes a possible race condition where after a bus reset (the
result of a command time out not during intial probe time), we might queue
two commands both requesting SDTR, WDTR or both.

the driver to notice. Not the final solution, but the
problem has been seen only with very few devices.

Fixed long standing bug in freeing swap space during object collapses.
Fixed 'out of space' messages from printing out too often.
Modified to use new kmem_malloc() calling convention.
Implemented an additional stat in the swap pager struct to count the
amount of space allocated to that pager. This may be removed at some
point in the future.
Minimized unnecessary wakeups.
vm_fault.c:
Don't try to collect fault stats on 'swapped' processes - there aren't
any upages to store the stats in.
Changed read-ahead policy (again!).
vm_glue.c:
Be sure to gain a reference to the process's map before swapping.
Be sure to lose it when done.
kern_malloc.c:
Added the ability to specify if allocations are at interrupt time or
are 'safe'; this affects what types of pages can be allocated.
vm_map.c:
Fixed a variety of map lock problems; there's still a lurking bug that
will eventually bite.
vm_object.c:
Explicitly initialize the object fields rather than bzeroing the struct.
Eliminated the 'rcollapse' code and folded it's functionality into the
"real" collapse routine.
Moved an object_unlock() so that the backing_object is protected in
the qcollapse routine.
Make sure nobody fools with the backing_object when we're destroying it.
Added some diagnostic code which can be called from the debugger that
looks through all the internal objects and makes certain that they
all belong to someone.
vm_page.c:
Fixed a rather serious logic bug that would result in random system
crashes. Changed pagedaemon wakeup policy (again!).
vm_pageout.c:
Removed unnecessary page rotations on the inactive queue.
Changed the number of pages to explicitly free to just free_reserved
level.

Used new M_KERNEL value for socket allocations that previous were
"M_NOWAIT". Note that this will change when we clean up the M_ namespace
mess.

some comparisons as it is more correct (we want the kernel page tables
included).
Reorganized some of the expressions for efficiency.
Fixed the new pmap_prefault() routine - it would sometimes pick up the
wrong page if the page in the shadow was present but the page in object
was paged out. The routine remains unused and commented out, however.
Explicitly free zero reference count page tables (rather than waiting
for the pagedaemon to do it).

Now it matches the man page and also the only other commercial implementation
i have found so far ( Solaris 2.x).
Changed the name from ss_base to ss_sp.
Display update method changed, now allways write in memory buffer,
then periodically update physical display.
Speed improvements (now > 5 times faster than the old syscons).
History now circular buffer, with changeable size.
History scroll by up/down line, up/down page, home and end.
Backtab proberly implemented.
Now space for 96 function keys, 63 allocated standard, default now
SCO/SYSV compat again as in the old days.
New keyboard definition files ~share/syscons/keymaps/*
Misc fixes for old "hacks" that broke SCO/SYSV compat.
More that I forgot before writing this...
Handles at least Trantor T130 and ProAudioSpectrum adapters.
The pas driver has consequently been removed.
This driver can be configured without without interrupts.

case, software cursor now optional case. Driver must provide
raw things (what hardware do for us, exactly) as default case,
all driver features must be _optional_. Modern VGAs have internal
configuration utilities to set cursor shape/blinking which stored
into cards ROM, and syscons nuke out such features completely
by forcing software cursor. Moreover, software cursor is hard
to distinguish on standouted (or near standouted) fields and
tends to disappearse from the screen.
Set "flags 0x4" to enable software cursor now.
o Cleanup screen savers.
o Don't draw cursor if saver or blinker is active.
o Duplicated code moved to functons.
o Add more checks for blinker in progress, character lost otherwise
when blinker restore old contents.
o Reduce blinking counter to 3, too slow in old variant.
o Fix timeout code in scrn_timer(), old variant can reenter iself,
if action takes too long time.
o Disable visual bell for scroll lock mode, saved screen
becomes overwritted otherwise.
