Replace all in-tree uses with necessary subset of <sys/{fb,kb,cons}io.h>.
This is also the appropriate fix for exo-tree sources.
Put warnings in <machine/console.h> to discourage use.
November 15th 2000 the warnings will be converted to errors.
January 15th 2001 the <machine/console.h> files will be removed.
- Split syscons source code into manageable chunks and reorganize
some of complicated functions.
- Many static variables are moved to the softc structure.
- Added a new key function, PREV. When this key is pressed, the vty
immediately before the current vty will become foreground. Analogue
to PREV, which is usually assigned to the PrntScrn key.

- Modified the kernel console input function sccngetc() so that it
handles function keys properly.
- Reorganized the screen update routine.
- VT switching code is reorganized. It now should be slightly more
robust than before.
- Added the DEVICE_RESUME function so that syscons no longer hooks the
APM resume event directly.
- New kernel configuration options: SC_NO_CUTPASTE, SC_NO_FONT_LOADING,
SC_NO_HISTORY and SC_NO_SYSMOUSE.
Various parts of syscons can be omitted so that the kernel size is
reduced.
SC_PIXEL_MODE
Made the VESA 800x600 mode an option, rather than a standard part of
syscons.
SC_DISABLE_DDBKEY
Disables the `debug' key combination.
SC_ALT_MOUSE_IMAGE
Inverse the character cell at the mouse cursor position in the text
console, rather than drawing an arrow on the screen.

SC_DFLT_FONT
makeoptions "SC_DFLT_FONT=_font_name_"
Include the named font as the default font of syscons. 16-line,
14-line and 8-line font data will be compiled in. This option replaces
the existing STD8X16FONT option, which loads 16-line font data only.
- The VGA driver is split into /sys/dev/fb/vga.c and /sys/isa/vga_isa.c.
- The video driver provides a set of ioctl commands to manipulate the
frame buffer.
- New kernel configuration option: VGA_WIDTH90
Enables 90 column modes: 90x25, 90x30, 90x43, 90x50, 90x60. These
modes are mot always supported by the video card.

- The header file machine/console.h is reorganized; its contents is now
split into sys/fbio.h, sys/kbio.h (a new file) and sys/consio.h
(another new file). machine/console.h is still maintained for
compatibility reasons.
- Kernel console selection/installation routines are fixed and
slightly rebumped so that it should now be possible to switch between
the interanl kernel console (sc or vt) and a remote kernel console
(sio) again, as it was in 2.x, 3.0 and 3.1.
- Screen savers and splash screen decoders
Because of the header file reorganization described above, screen
savers and splash screen decoders are slightly modified. After this
update, /sys/modules/syscons/saver.h is no longer necessary and is
removed.
- Refined internal interface in keyboard drivers so that:
1. the side effect of device probe is kept minimal,
2. polling mode function is added,
3. and new ioctl and configuration options are added (see below).
- Added new ioctl: KDSETREPEAT
Set keyboard typematic rate. There has existed an ioctl command,
KDSETRAD, for the same purpose. However, KDSETRAD is dependent on
the AT keyboard. KDSETREPEAT provides more generic interface.
KDSETRAD will still be supported in the atkbd driver.
- Added new configuration options:
ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
Specify a keymap to be used as the default, built-in keymap.
(There has been undocumented options, DKKEYMAP, UKKEYMAP, GRKEYMAP,
SWKEYMAP, RUKEYMAP, ESKEYMAP, and ISKEYMAP to set the default keymap.
These options are now gone for good. The new option is more general.)
KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOADING
Don't allow the user to change the keymap.

- Store the current video mode information in the `video_adapter' struct.
- The size of the `v_offscreensize' field in the VESA mode information
block is u_int16, not u_int8.
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>.

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.
is the kernel part of my commits, the userlevel stuff will be done in
a separate commit. Add the ability to suspend as well as hibernate to
syscons. Create a new virtual key like hibernate for suspend. Update
apm_bios.h to define more apm bios goodies.
so that it is possible for kdump and truss to include them both. Use
#defines from pcvt_ioctl.h in conflicting cases, since pcvt_ioctl.h
gives a hint about the bogus third arg to _IO(). Ifdef the common
typedefs. Export `struct key_t' from pcvt_ioctl.h so pcvt_ioctl.h is
bug for bug compatible with console.h (now both are broken in C++
mode).
With a keymap with accent key definitions loaded to syscons, you press
an accent key followed by a regular letter key to produce an accented
letter. Press an accent key followed by the space bar to get the
accent letter itself.
Code is based on the ideas and work by jmrueda@diatel.upm.es and
totii@est.is.
PR: i386/4016
console.h
- Defined structures and constants for accent (dead) keys.
syscons.c, kbdtables.h
- When an accent key is pressed, set the corresponding index to
`accents'. If the next key is the space key, produce the accent char
itself. Otherwise search the accent key map entry, indexed by
`accents', for a matching pair of a regular char and an accented char.
- Added ioctl functions to set and get the accent key map (PIO_DEADKEYMAP
and GIO_DEADKEYMAP).

- The `psm' driver is made to recognize various models of PS/2 mice
and enable their extra features so that their additional buttons and
wheel/roller are recognized. The name of the detected model will be
printed at boot time.
- A set of new ioctl functions are added to the `psm', `mse' and
`sysmouse' drivers so that the userland program (such as the X server)
can query device information and change driver settings.
- The wheel/roller movement is handled as the `Z' axis movement by the
mouse drivers and the moused daemon. The Z axis movement may be mapped
to another axis movement or buttons.
- The mouse drivers support a new, standard mouse data format,
MOUSE_PROTO_SYSMOUSE format which can encode x, y, and x axis movement
and up to 10 buttons.
/sys/i386/include/mouse.h
- Added some fields to `mousestatus_t' to store Z axis movement
and flag bits.
- Added the field `model' to `mousehw_t' to store mouse model code.
Defined model codes.
- Extended `mousemode_t'.
- Added new protocols and some constants for them.
- Added new ioctl functions and structures.
- Removed obsolete ioctl definitions.
/sys/i386/include/console.h
- Added `dz' field to the structure `mouse_data' to pass Z axis movement
to `syscons/sysmouse'.
- Removed LEFT_BUTTON, MIDDLE_BUTTON and RIGHT_BUTTON. Use button bits
defined in `mouse.h' instead.
/sys/i386/isa/psm.c
- Added a set of functions to detect various mice which have additional
features (wheel and buttons) unavailable in the standard PS/2 mouse.
- Refined existing ioctl functions and added new ones. Most important
of all is MOUSE_SETLEVEL which manipulates the output level of the driver.
While the output level remains zero, the output from the `psm' driver is
in the standard PS/2 mouse format (three bytes long). When the level
is set to one, the `psm' driver will send data in the extended format.
At the level two the driver uses the format which is native to the
connected mouse is used. (Meaning that the output from the device is
passed to the caller as is, unmodified.) The `psm' driver will pass
such extended data format as is to the caller if the output level is
two, but emulates the standard format if the output level is zero.
- Added kernel configuration flags to set initial resolution
(PSM_CONFIG_RESOLUTION) and acceleration (PSM_CONFIG_ACCEL).
- Removed the compile options PSM_ACCEL, PSM_CHECKSYNC and PSM_EMULATION.
Acceleration ratio is now specified by the kernel configuration flags
stated above. Sync check logic is refined and now standard.
The sync check can be turned off by the new kernel configuration flags
PSM_CONFIG_NOCHECKSYNC (0x100). PSM_EMULATION has been of little use.
- Summer clean up :-) Removed unused code and obsolete comments.
/sys/i386/isa/mse.c
- Created mseioctl() to deal with ioctl functions MOUSE_XXXX.
Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL ioctl will change the
output format from the 5 byte format to the new, extended format
so that the caller can take advantage of Z axis movement and additional
buttons.
- Use constants defined in `mouse.h' rather than magic numbers.
/sys/i386/isa/syscons.c
- Changed scioctl() to reflect the new `console.h' and some of the new
ioctls defined in `mouse.h'. Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL
ioctl will change the `sysmouse' output format from the MouseSystems
5 byte format to the new, extended format so that the caller can
take advantage of Z axis movement and additional buttons.
- Added support for double/triple click actions of the left button and
single click action of the right button in the virtual console. The
left button double click will select a word under the mouse pointer.
The triple click will select a line and the single click of the right
button will extend the selected region to the current position of
the mouse pointer. This will make the cut/paste support more compatible
with xterm.
/sys/i386/isa/kbdio.h
- Added PSM_INTELLI_ID.
much like the scancode mode.
However the keys that (for no good reason) returns extension codes
etc, are translated into singlebyte codes.
Needed by libvgl. This makes life ALOT easier, also the XFree86
folks could use this.
Add support for MODEX 320x240x256color with "unchained" adressing, giving
access to all 256K on all VGA's, those with that much memory that is :)
Also make sysmouse use the right resolution in graphics modes.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
syscons and psm, curtesy Kazutaka Yokota with minor changes by
me. This contains an update of the psm driver as well.
This also fixes the breakage that I introduced to the psm driver by
making syscons poll for keyboard events in the atempt to fix the
hanging keyboard problem.
It works perfectly for me, and I'd like to hear from all that
have had keyboard/ps/2 mouse problems if this is the cure...

- don't include <sys/ioctl.h> in any header. Include <sys/ioccom.h>
instead. This was already done in 4.4Lite for the most important
ioctl headers. Header spam currently increases kernel build
times by 10-20%. There are more than 30000 #includes (not counting
duplicates) for compiling LINT.
- include <sys/types.h> if and only it is necessary to make the header
almost self-sufficient (some ioctl headers still need structs from
elsewhere).
- uniformized idempotency ifdefs. Copied the style in the 4.4Lite
ioctl headers.
via an ioctl (MOUSE_ACTION).
Fixed a couple of bugs (destructive cursor, uncut, jitter).
Now applications can use the mouse via the MOUSE_MODE ioctl, its
possible to have a signal sent on mouseevents, makeing an event loop
in the application take over mouseevents.
Real support for a Textmode mousecursor, works by reprogramming the
charset. Together with this support for cut&paste in text mode.
To use it a userland daemon is needed (moused), which provides
the interface to the various mice protokols.
Bug fixes here and there, all known PR's closed by this update.
All new code is "#ifdef PC98"ed so this should make no difference to
PC/AT (and its clones) users.

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...
No kernel config options anymore besides keyboard language layout.
Virtual consoles are now dynamically allocated, no NCONS anymore.
Software cursor blinking/nonblinking.
Visual bell for laptops (don't beep at meetings :-).
Cursor/bell default type setable via config "flags" instead of as defines.
Cursor/bell type setable via ioctl's.
New video modes 80x30 80x60 for some laptops, and those with multisync monitors.
Scroll-lock history (length currently fixed at 100 lines).
Lots of cleanups, some only commented out for now (will goaway soon).
Support for new features in vidcontrol/kbdcontrol.
Updated manpages.
320x200 256col VGA. This is nessesary for the iBCS stuff to work right.
(And we get the benefit of more video modes). Uses the videocard BIOS
to optain mode tables.
Added a "green" saver, switches off the syncs for "green" monitors.
