via the DEFAULTS kernel configs. This allows folks to turn it that option
off in the kernel configs if desired without having to hack the source.
This is especially useful since PUC_FASTINTR hangs the kernel boot on my
ultra60 which has two uart(4) devices hung off of a puc(4) device.
I did not enable PUC_FASTINTR by default on powerpc since powerpc does not
currently allow sharing of INTR_FAST with non-INTR_FAST like the other
archs.
'device mem' over from GENERIC to DEFAULTS to be consistent with i386 and
amd64. Additionally, on ia64 enable ACPI by default since ia64 requires
acpi.
sio(4) will claim it. This change therefore only affects how ports
are handled when they are not claimed by sio(4), and in principle
will improve hardware support.

This kernel config briefly describes some of the major MAC policies
available on FreeBSD. The hope is that this will raise the awareness
about MAC and get more people interested.

This is mentioned in the Handbook but it is not as obvious to new
users why bpf is needed compared to the other largely self-explanatory
items in GENERIC.

compile option. All FreeBSD packet filters now use the PFIL_HOOKS API and
thus it becomes a standard part of the network stack.
If no hooks are connected the entire packet filter hooks section and related
activities are jumped over. This removes any performance impact if no hooks
are active.
Both OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD have integrated PFIL_HOOKS permanently as well.
their own directory and module, leaving the MD parts in the MD
area (the MD parts _are_ part of the modules). /dev/mem and /dev/io
are now loadable modules, thus taking us one step further towards
a kernel created entirely out of modules. Of course, there is nothing
preventing the kernel from having these statically compiled.
it's in the way even more. Basicly: remove all alpha specific console
support from gfb(4), sio(4) and syscons(4). Rewrite the alpha console
initialization to be identical to all other platforms. In a nutshell:
call cninit().
The platform specific code now only sets or clears RB_SERIAL and thus
automaticly causes the right console to be selected.

o Replace the remote GDB hacks and use the GDB debug port interface
instead.
o Make debugging code conditional upon KDB instead of DDB.
o Call kdb_alt_break() instead of db_alt_break().
o Call kdb_enter() instead of breakpoint().
o Remove the ugly compatibility of using the console as the debug
port.

I wasn't sure about the ia64, pc98, powerpc, and sparc64 archs whether
they'd support puc(4) or not.
Without this option it is not possible to omit the driver from the

This option is specific to alpha.
ethernet controller. The driver has been tested with the LinkSys
USB200M adapter. I know for a fact that there are other devices out
there with this chip but don't have all the USB vendor/device IDs.
Note: I'm not sure if this will force the driver to end up in the
install kernel image or not. Special magic needs to be done to exclude
it to keep the boot floppies from bloating again, someone please
advise.
Fixed memory leak in the "nodevice" option implementation.
Use these instead of sed(1) in MD NOTES.
Use a single makefile (sys/conf/makeLINT.mk) to generate
LINT for all architectures. (Previous versions missed
the LINT dependency on Makefile, and i386 version also
missed the dependency on ${NOTES}.)
Fixed bugs in the previous NOTES conversion using the
"nodevice" token and sed(1):
- i386 LINT lost "device pst".
- pc98 LINT lost SC_*, MAXCONS and KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOAD
options, and got needless DPT_* options.
- Added nooptions PPC_DEBUG, PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET, KBD_INSTALL_CDEV
to sparc64 LINT so that it has a chance to config(8).
This basically returns us to where we were before.

By removing support for SimOS it is possible to build LINT on
Alpha, which is considered more important at the moment.
