There seems to be some confusion in the syscons code as to the meaning of
the SC_KERNEL_CONSOLE flag. Its absence is sometimes interpreted to mean
"I am not the system console", and sometimes to mean "I am not the only
VGA console" (see the font loading code for an example of the latter).
Someone with better syscons fu than myself should take a closer look.
future:
rename ttyopen() -> tty_open() and ttyclose() -> tty_close().
We need the ttyopen() and ttyclose() for the new generic cdevsw
functions for tty devices in order to have consistent naming.
for unknown events.
A number of modules return EINVAL in this instance, and I have left
those alone for now and instead taught MOD_QUIESCE to accept this
as "didn't do anything".
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.
sio.c:
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.
The big lines are:
NODEV -> NULL
NOUDEV -> NODEV
udev_t -> dev_t
udev2dev() -> findcdev()
Various minor adjustments including handling of userland access to kernel
space struct cdev etc.
on architectures that need to call cninit() before the machine is
ready to support mutexes (required by make_dev()).
- Remove make_dev() call from scinit() when flags indicate
unit is the system console, rely on sc_attach_unit() to
handle it.
- When trying to access current screen's status (scr_stat
structure) use the static one provided for the initial
system console if no dev_t is available.
- When calling make_dev() in sc_attach_unit() catch special
case of system's initial console and set up dev_t structure
to include pointer to console's scr_stat struct.

gfb_draw if 'flip' is specified. This causes the mouse cut region
to be displayed in reverse color so it is visbile.
- Use the "other" implementation of gfb_cursor for the creator driver,
which doesn't assume there is a hardware cursor. It seems that the
hardware cursor that creator provides doesn't display the character
under the cursor in reverse colors, so the driver does this manually
and uses the hardware cursor for the mouse pointer (which it also works
much better for). This is wedged here because it required less hoops
than accessing the syscons vtb from inside the video driver, which is
needed to read the character and color attributes under the new cursor
position.
-Werror build with such option, but not other combinations. LINT
misses this because syscons knobs in LINT turn off a lot of code.

where physical addresses larger than virtual addresses, such as i386s
with PAE.
- Use this to represent physical addresses in the MI vm system and in the
i386 pmap code. This also changes the paddr parameter to d_mmap_t.
- Fix printf formats to handle physical addresses >4G in the i386 memory
detection code, and due to kvtop returning vm_paddr_t instead of u_long.
Note that this is a name change only; vm_paddr_t is still the same as
vm_offset_t on all currently supported platforms.

Otherwise sysbeep() makes an annoying clicking sound on some systems.
'kbdcontrol -b off' just sets the duration and pitch to zero, it doesn't

don't end up freezing the box. This makes VTY locking useless
in the DDB case but a box which is supposed to be physically
secure shouldn't compile DDB anyway.

- Get rid of the useless atop() / pmap_phys_address() detour. The
device mmap handlers must now give back the physical address
without atop()'ing it.
- Don't borrow the physical address of the mapping in the returned
int. Now we properly pass a vm_offset_t * and expect it to be
filled by the mmap handler when the mapping was successful. The
mmap handler must now return 0 when successful, any other value
is considered as an error. Previously, returning -1 was the only
way to fail. This change thus accidentally fixes some devices
which were bogusly returning errno constants which would have been
considered as addresses by the device pager.
- Garbage collect the poorly named pmap_phys_address() now that it's
no longer used.
- Convert all the d_mmap_t consumers to the new API.
I'm still not sure wheter we need a __FreeBSD_version bump for this,
since and we didn't guarantee API/ABI stability until 5.1-RELEASE.
