secondary bus is 0, we program the primary bus, the secondary bus and
the suborindate bus. This isn't ideal, since we start at parent_bus +
1 and store this in a static.
Ideally, we'd walk the tree and assign bus numbers. However, that's
harder to accomplish without some help from the bus layer which we're
not planning on doing that until 6.
This fixes my CardBus problems on my Sony PCG-Z1WA, and might fix the
Dells that have had problems.
sched_ule, in January 2004. Looking at this, "pagezero" is (one of) the
culprit(s). We had no provision for processes with P_NOLOAD set. With
pagezero not running at PRI_ITHD, kseq_load_{add,rem} count pagezero as
another-normal-process, thus the "expected-plus-one" load reported in
the above thread.

there are a lot of other dependencies that preclude the kernel from
working). Instead, have a more generic note that isa should not be
removed. This should be less confusing for users.

This fixes problems that occurred when using positional arguments in
format strings, particularly with more than STATIC_ARG_TBL_SIZE (8)
of them.

My original instinct to make ndis_return_packet() asynchronous was correct.
Making ndis_rxeof() submit packets to the stack asynchronously fixes
one recursive spinlock acquisition, but it's also possible for it to
happen via the ndis_txeof() path too. So:
- In if_ndis.c, revert ndis_rxeof() to its old behavior (and don't bother
putting ndis_rxeof_serial() back since we don't need it anymore).
- In kern_ndis.c, make ndis_return_packet() submit the call to the
MiniportReturnPacket() function to the "ndis swi" thread so that
it always happens in another context no matter who calls it.
workaround was for hardware where the clock was not latched, not for
hardware that was too slow. Also, make variable names more specific for ddb
printing.
adjunct maps are used. One symtom of this bug is sshd saying:
login_get_lastlog: Cannot find account for uid X
when logging in. The problem here is caused by an incorrect reuse of the rv
variable when previous values are needed later.
While I would have prefered to have a solution that didn't move
knowledge of this into the pci layer. However, this is literally the
only exception that's listed in the PCI standard to the usual way of
decoding BARs. atapci devices in legacy mode now ignore the first 4
bars and hard code the values to the legacy ide values (well, for each
of the controllers that are in legacy mode). The 5th bar is handled
normally.
Remove the zero bar handling. zero bars should be ignored at all
other times, and since we handle that specially, we don't need the
older workaround.

Set the bushandle and tag when attaching the timer, don't do it each time

Move test_counter() to the end. Staticize acpi_timer_reg.
Clearly comment the assumptions on the structure of keys (addresses)
and masks, and introduce a macro, LEN(p), to extract the size of these
objects instead of using *(u_char *)p which might be confusing.
Comment the confusion in the types used to pass around pointers
to keys and masks, as a reminder to fix that at some point.
Add a few comments on what some functions do.
Comment a probably inefficient (but still correct) section of code

The object code generated after this commit is the same as before.
At some point we should also change same variable identifiers such
as "t, tt, ttt" to fancier names such as "root, left, right" (just
in case someone wants to understand the code!), replace misspelling
of NULL as 0, remove 'register' declarations that make little sense
these days.
High-resolution mtime/ctime/atime is not POSIX-standard, so hide
set/get of high-resolution time fields behind easily-mutable macros.
That makes it easier to change how those fields are accessed.

wireless ever since I added the new spinlock code. Previously, I added
a special ndis_rxeof_serial() function to insure that when we receive
a packet, we never end up calling the MiniportReturnPacket() routine
until after the receive handler has finished. I set things up so that
ndis_rxeof_serial() would only be used for serialized miniports since
they depend on this property. Well, it turns out deserialized miniports
depend on a similar property: you can't let MiniportReturnPacket() be
called from the same context as the receive handler at all. The 2100B
driver happens to use a single spinlock for all of its synchronization,
and it tries to acquire it both while in MiniportHandleInterrupt() and
in MiniportReturnPacket(), so if we call MiniportReturnPacket() from
the MiniportHandleInterrupt() context, we will end up trying to acquire
the spinlock recursively, which you can't do.
To fix this, I made the ndis_rxeof_serial() handler the default. An
alternate solution would be to make ndis_return_packet() submit
the call to MiniportReturnPacket() to the NDIS task queue thread.
I may do that in the future, after I've tested things a bit more.
