This is the vastly updated cx drvier from Roman Kurakin <rik@cronyx.ru>
who has been patiently waiting for this update for sometime.
The driver is mostly a rewrite from the version we have in the tree.
While some similarities remain, losing the little history that the old
driver has is not a big loss, and the re@ felt it was easier this way (less
error prone).
The userland parts of this update will be committed shortly.
The driver is not connected to the build yet. I want to make sure I
don't break any platform at any time, so I want to test that with
these files in the tree before I continue (on the off chance I'm
forgetting a file).
I changed the DEBUG macro to CX_DEBUG from the code that was submitted
(to not break when we go to building with opt_global.h after the
release), as well adding $FreeBSD$.

code. Both the driver and the new code were wrong. Driver interrupt
handlers are supposed to take "void *vsc" arg, but some including all
COMPAT_ISA drivers and the pci part of the cy driver want an "int unit"
arg. They got this using bogus casts of function pointers which should
have kept working despite their bogusness. However, the new interrupt
code doesn't honor requests to pass an arg of ((void *)0), so things
are very broken if the arg is actually a representation of unit 0.
The fix is to use a normal "void *vsc" arg for the pci case and a
wrapper for the COMPAT_ISA case (of the cy driver). This cleans up
new-busification of the pci case but takes the COMPAT_ISA case a little
further from new-bus. The corresponding bug for the COMPAT_ISA case
has already been fixed similarly using a wrapper in compat_isa.c and
we need another wrapper just to undo that.
Fixed some directly related style bugs (mainly by removing compatibility
cruft).

- If twe_getparam failed, bogus data would be returned to the caller
- Cache the device unit in the twe_drive structure to aid debugging
- Add the 3ware driver version.
- Proper return error codes for many functions.

* In the !SMP case, don't use the processor id filled out by the MADT

acpi_cpu_idle if the id was 1 since the data was being dereferenced from

This will help SMP boxes that have _CST or multiple P_BLKs. No such

o Each source gets its own queue, which is a FIFO, not a ring buffer.
The FIFOs are implemented with the sys/queue.h macros. The separation
is so that a low entropy/high rate source can't swamp the harvester
with low-grade entropy and destroy the reseeds.
o Each FIFO is limited to 256 (set as a macro, so adjustable) events
queueable. Full FIFOs are ignored by the harvester. This is to
prevent memory wastage, and helps to keep the kernel thread CPU
usage within reasonable limits.
o There is no need to break up the event harvesting into ${burst}
sized chunks, so retire that feature.
o Break the device away from its roots with the memory device, and

with multiple ports on a shared interrupt demultiplexed by the puc_intr()
handler.
siointr1() first read as much input as possible and then checked all
possibly-relevant status registers, partly for robustness and partly
for historical reasons. This is very bad if it is called for every
port sharing an interrupt like puc_intr() does. It can spend too long
reading all the input for some ports when the interrupt is for a more
urgent event on another, or just too long checking all the status
registers when there are lots of ports. The inter-character time is
too long for reading all the input even when the interrupt is for a
transmitter interrupt on the same port, and at 921600 bps the inter-char
time is 10.85 usec and was often exceeded with just 2 ports, leaving
the transmitters idle for about 6% of the time.
The tweak is to break out of the read loop after reading 1 char if
output can be done. This avoids most of the idle transmitter time for
2 active ports at 921600 bps bidirectional on the test system. It
also reduces overhead by about 20%. More complete fixes use the

The problem was caused by a combination of things working
together to make it hard to spot...
The ATA driver has always started the ATA command, then build
the SG list for DMA and then finally started the DMA engine.
While this is according to specs, it poses a potential
problem as some controllers apparently do not allow for unlimitted
time between starting the ATA command and starting the DMA engine.
At about the same time as ATAng was committed there were lots
of other changes applied, some of which was locking in parts
that causes the busdma load functions to take significantly
longer to load the SG list.
This pushed the time spent between starting the ATA command and
starting the DMA engine over the hill for some controllers
(especially the Silicon Image DS3112a) and caused what looked
like lost interrupts.
The solution is to get all the SG list work or rather all
busdma related stuff done before we even try to start anything.
This has the nice side effect of seperating busdma out the
way it should be, so the working of the ATA machinery is not
cluttered up with busdma droppings, making the code easier

As falloc releases the FILEDESC lock before returning, there is a
