ttwwakeup(). The conditions for doing the wakeup will soon become
more complicated and I don't want them duplicated in all drivers.
It's probably not worth making ttwwakeup() a macro or an inline
function. The cost of the function call is relatively small when
there is a process to wake up. There is usually a process to wake
up for large writes and the system call overhead dwarfs the function
call overhead for small writes.
Temporarily nuke TS_WOPEN. It was only used for the obscure MDMBUF
flow control option in the kernel and for informational purposes
in `pstat -t'. The latter worked properly only for ptys. In
general there may be multiple processes sleeping in open() and
multiple processes that successfully opened the tty by opening it
in O_NONBLOCK mode or during a window when CLOCAL was set. tty.c
doesn't have enough information to maintain the flag but always
cleared it in ttyopen().
TS_WOPEN should be restored someday just so that `pstat -t' can
display it (MDMBUF is already fixed). Fixing it requires counting
of processes sleeping in open() in too many serial drivers.

Future Domain TMC-885 controllers. These beasts were just different enough in
a number of perverse ways to be recognised but not work with the seagate

more than doubles my throughput. If you're dubious about that, comment out the

proc or any VM system structure will have to be rebuilt!!!
Much needed overhaul of the VM system. Included in this first round of
changes:
1) Improved pager interfaces: init, alloc, dealloc, getpages, putpages,
haspage, and sync operations are supported. The haspage interface now
provides information about clusterability. All pager routines now take
struct vm_object's instead of "pagers".
2) Improved data structures. In the previous paradigm, there is constant
confusion caused by pagers being both a data structure ("allocate a
pager") and a collection of routines. The idea of a pager structure has
escentially been eliminated. Objects now have types, and this type is
used to index the appropriate pager. In most cases, items in the pager
structure were duplicated in the object data structure and thus were
unnecessary. In the few cases that remained, a un_pager structure union
was created in the object to contain these items.
3) Because of the cleanup of #1 & #2, a lot of unnecessary layering can now
be removed. For instance, vm_object_enter(), vm_object_lookup(),
vm_object_remove(), and the associated object hash list were some of the
things that were removed.
4) simple_lock's removed. Discussion with several people reveals that the
SMP locking primitives used in the VM system aren't likely the mechanism
that we'll be adopting. Even if it were, the locking that was in the code
was very inadequate and would have to be mostly re-done anyway. The
locking in a uni-processor kernel was a no-op but went a long way toward
making the code difficult to read and debug.
5) Places that attempted to kludge-up the fact that we don't have kernel
thread support have been fixed to reflect the reality that we are really
dealing with processes, not threads. The VM system didn't have complete
thread support, so the comments and mis-named routines were just wrong.
We now use tsleep and wakeup directly in the lock routines, for instance.
6) Where appropriate, the pagers have been improved, especially in the
pager_alloc routines. Most of the pager_allocs have been rewritten and
are now faster and easier to maintain.
7) The pagedaemon pageout clustering algorithm has been rewritten and
now tries harder to output an even number of pages before and after
the requested page. This is sort of the reverse of the ideal pagein
algorithm and should provide better overall performance.
8) Unnecessary (incorrect) casts to caddr_t in calls to tsleep & wakeup
have been removed. Some other unnecessary casts have also been removed.
9) Some almost useless debugging code removed.
10) Terminology of shadow objects vs. backing objects straightened out.
The fact that the vm_object data structure escentially had this
backwards really confused things. The use of "shadow" and "backing
object" throughout the code is now internally consistent and correct
in the Mach terminology.
11) Several minor bug fixes, including one in the vm daemon that caused
0 RSS objects to not get purged as intended.
12) A "default pager" has now been created which cleans up the transition
of objects to the "swap" type. The previous checks throughout the code
for swp->pg_data != NULL were really ugly. This change also provides
the rudiments for future backing of "anonymous" memory by something
other than the swap pager (via the vnode pager, for example), and it
allows the decision about which of these pagers to use to be made
dynamically (although will need some additional decision code to do
this, of course).
13) (dyson) MAP_COPY has been deprecated and the corresponding "copy
object" code has been removed. MAP_COPY was undocumented and non-
standard. It was furthermore broken in several ways which caused its
behavior to degrade to MAP_PRIVATE. Binaries that use MAP_COPY will
continue to work correctly, but via the slightly different semantics
of MAP_PRIVATE.
14) (dyson) Sharing maps have been removed. It's marginal usefulness in a
threads design can be worked around in other ways. Both #12 and #13
were done to simplify the code and improve readability and maintain-
ability. (As were most all of these changes)
TODO:
1) Rewrite most of the vnode pager to use VOP_GETPAGES/PUTPAGES. Doing
this will reduce the vnode pager to a mere fraction of its current size.
2) Rewrite vm_fault and the swap/vnode pagers to use the clustering
information provided by the new haspage pager interface. This will
substantially reduce the overhead by eliminating a large number of
VOP_BMAP() calls. The VOP_BMAP() filesystem interface should be
improved to provide both a "behind" and "ahead" indication of
contiguousness.
3) Implement the extended features of pager_haspage in swap_pager_haspage().
It currently just says 0 pages ahead/behind.
4) Re-implement the swap device (swstrategy) in a more elegant way, perhaps
via a much more general mechanism that could also be used for disk
striping of regular filesystems.
5) Do something to improve the architecture of vm_object_collapse(). The
fact that it makes calls into the swap pager and knows too much about
how the swap pager operates really bothers me. It also doesn't allow
for collapsing of non-swap pager objects ("unnamed" objects backed by
other pagers).
were two races:
- q_to_b() might unexpectedly return 0 (e.g, after a keyboard signal
flushes the output queue and isn't echoed). ansi_put() interprets
0 bytes as 4GB...
- more output (e.g. for echoes) might arrive afer q_to_b() returns 0.
Then scstart() returns presumably and the new output might not be
handled for a long time.
Remove unused function scxint().
Fix prototypes (foo() isn't a prototype).
syscons' output is now only about 4-5 times slower than I want.
It loses a factor of 2 for scrolling output by unnecessarily copying

Corrected bit-masking problem that prevented use on SB Vibra-16 boards.

optimizations I have been working on yet, but does bring in some bug fixes
and performance improvments that were easy to regression test:
Setup the data fifo threshold and bus off timing correctly for 27/284x cards.
Users of these adapters with fast periferals (greater than 5MB/s) will notice
a big performance difference. (Sometimes as large as going from 3.7->8.3MB/s).
Fix handling of the active target flags. Some of the outbs where missing
the base offset in the abort code. The abort code still needs lots of work.
Support 3940 controllers, but only with 16 SCBs for now. Eventually I'll
add support for all 255, but I need to find a tester for the code first since
we have to enable the cards external SRAM to do this.
Add Dan Eischen's serial eeprom reading facilities. This allows the 2940
adapters to pull additional information left over from SCSI-Select right out
out of the configuration seeprom.
If the BIOS is disabled on 274x controllers, reset all target parameters

If a target issues a message reject in response to a tagged message,

off_t is very machine-dependent and should never have been decided

isn't very machine-dependent, but this might change. `long' is

no ports are active, provided there are no polled ports and no
`LOSESOUTINTS' ports. Do a little more in the interrupt handler instead.
This is a little less efficient if there are are many active ports but
a little more efficient otherwise. Polled ports are ones with no irq
specified (as before). `LOSESOUTINTS' ports are ones with 0x08 set in
their config flags. Unless this flag is set, it will now take up to one
second to recover from lost output interrupts, if any. Some 8250s and
16450s lose output interrupts.
