This creates a skeleton ISA device driver.
I don't pretend that it's fully correct or even opitimal
but it at least creates (and compiles) a 'clean' ISA driver.
Hopefully PCI/PCCARD/etc. support will be added when I understand it.
Unlike the old version this just creates a module. The old one tried to
create a new kernel with the driver to be tested.
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.

= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).
= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).
= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
. getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
. getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
. getusershell
. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
. getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
. getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr
= host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified
to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if
there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.

The boot-conf command was changed as to reproduce the behavior of builtin
loader words precisely. As a result, it now always need an argument, possibly
0 indicating that no other arguments are being passed. This broke in a
non-deterministic way (ie, it could go on working as if everything was fine).

and remove sysctl oids at will during runtime - they don't rely on
linker sets. Also, the node oids can be referenced by more than
one kernel user, which means that it's possible to create partially

Add sysctl contexts to help programmers manage multiple dynamic

NGM_BINARY2ASCII, which convert control messages to ASCII and back.
This allows control messages to be sent and received in ASCII form
using ngctl(8), which makes ngctl a lot more useful.
This also allows all the type-specific debugging code in libnetgraph
to go away -- instead, we just ask the node itself to do the ASCII
translation for us.
Currently, all generic control messages are supported, as well as
messages associated with the following node types: async, cisco,
ksocket, and ppp.
See /usr/share/examples/netgraph/ngctl for an example of using this.
Also give ngctl(8) the ability to print out incoming data and
control messages at any time. Eventually nghook(8) may be subsumed.

Add back "src-eBones" to "cvs-supfile" and "secure-cvs-supfile".
Even though the eBones tree is disused, it still has files in the

Prompted by docs/12343, in which people seemed to get a little confused.
The original text in the file said:
[...]
# By default we use COM1 as our serial console port *if* we're going to use
# a serial port as our console at all. (0x3E8 = COM2)
#
#BOOT_COMCONSOLE_PORT= 0x3F8
[...]
From what I can make out, some people have assumed that means that if
they just uncomment the BOOT_COMCONSOLE_PORT then it will use COM2:
These same people then assume that "0x3F8" on that line is a typo for
"0x3E8".
What it actually means is that if you uncomment the line then the default
stays as "Ox3F8" (COM1:), and that you have to uncomment the line, *and*
change the value of the variable in order to use COM2:.
So I've made that a little bit clearer. I've also listed the hex values
for COM1: thru COM4:, snarfed from sys/isa/isareg.h.
