boink a generic kernel.
Also, document and place in an opt_ file the #define's for overriding which
serial port is the system console.

there is keyboard input.
The mousepointer is shown again immediately if moved.
Also a function pointer used to install a userwritten extra

install user defined videomodes etc etc. No further changes
should be in the kernel.
divisor latch registers if the registers wouldn't change.
Use the default console cfcr setting while setting the divisor
latch registers for console i/o. Input may be messed up by
transiently changing the cfcr.
Use a usual cfcr setting while setting the divisor latch registers
in the probe. This shouldn't matter, but this is not the place to
test the UART's handling of 5 bit words.
Removed a stale devfs comment.
instead of 0 if there is no input.
syscons.c:
Added missing spl locking in sccncheckc(). Return the same value as
sccngetc() would. It is wrong for sccngetc() to return non-ASCII, but
stripping the non-ASCII bits doesn't help.
(1) Add PC98 support to apm_bios.h and ns16550.h, remove pc98/pc98/ic
(2) Move PC98 specific code out of cpufunc.h (to pc98.h)
(3) Let the boot subtrees look more alike

What was happening was that the server was doing a tcsetattr(.. TCSADRAIN)
on the mouse fd after a write. Since /dev/sysmouse had a null t_oproc,
the drain failed with EIO. Somehow this spammed XFree86 (!@&^#%*& binary
release!!), and the driver was left in a bogus state (ie: switch_in_progress
permanently TRUE).
The simplest way out was to implement a dummy scmousestart() routine to
accept any characters from the tty system and toss them into the void.
It would probably be more correct to intercept scwrite()'s to the mouse
device, but that's executed for every single write to the screen.
Supplying a start routine to eat the characters is only executed for the
mouse port during startup/shutdown, so it should be faster.
This enables other consumers of the mouse, to get it info via
moused/syscons.
In order to use it run moused (from sysconfig), and then tell
your Xserver that it should use /dev/sysmouse (mknod sysmouse c 12 128)
and it a mousesystems mouse. Everybody will be happy then :)
Remember that moused still needs to know what kind of mouse you
have..
Comments welcome, as is test results...
(A pointer to a const was misused to avoid loading loading the same
value twice, but gcc does exactly the same optimization automatically.
It can see that the value hasn't changed.)
If you define this, it means your keyboard is actually probable using the
brain-dammaged probe routine in syscons, and if the keyboard is NOT found,
then you don't want syscons to activate itself further.
This makes life sane for those of us who use serial consoles most of the
time and want "the right thing" to happen when we plug a keyboard in.
during phk's staticize/cleanup commits. pstat needs it, the MAXCONS
option is not visible anywhere else, and pstat uses it to find the bounds
of the sccons[MAXCONS] array, which varies.
Saves about 280 butes of source per driver, 56 bytes in object size
and another 56 bytes moves from data to bss.
No functional change intended nor expected.
GENERIC should be about one k smaller now :-)
make it more intelligible, improve the partially bogus locking, and
allow for a ``quick re-acquiration'' from a pending release of timer 0
that happened ``recently'', so it was not processed yet by clkintr().
This latter modification now finally allows to play XBoing over
pcaudio without losing sounds or getting complaints. ;-) (XBoing
opens/writes/closes the sound device all over the day.)
Correct locking for sysbeep().

Testing with the high frequency of 20000 Hz (to find problems) only found
the problem that this frequency is too high for slow i386's.
Disable interrupts while setting the timer frequency. This was unnecessary
before rev.1.57 and forgotten in rev.1.57. The critical (i8254) interrupts
are disabled in another way at boot time but not in the sysctl to change
the frequency.
via an ioctl (MOUSE_ACTION).
Fixed a couple of bugs (destructive cursor, uncut, jitter).
Now applications can use the mouse via the MOUSE_MODE ioctl, its
possible to have a signal sent on mouseevents, makeing an event loop
in the application take over mouseevents.
Real support for a Textmode mousecursor, works by reprogramming the
charset. Together with this support for cut&paste in text mode.
To use it a userland daemon is needed (moused), which provides
the interface to the various mice protokols.
Bug fixes here and there, all known PR's closed by this update.
Original version by John Hay.
Simplified timestamp code by reading the time exactly when necessary.
This may slow down the interrupt handler with extra calls to microtime(),
but only in bad configurations - the input fifo should normally be
disabled if timestamps on input are being used, since otherwise the
timestamp won't be precisely associated with any particular input event.
The interrupt handler remains slowed down by one test and branch for
each input (and now DCD change) event - avoiding this is not practical
yet.
The simplifications also fixed:
- timestamps for input sometimes being clobbered by output and modem
status interrupts.
- valid timestamps not being available unless the port is configured with
vector siointrts. siointrts no longer exists.
- compiler warnings about siointr* in some configurations.
Simplified timestamp and probe code by depending on recent changes in
microtime() and DELAY() to preserve the interrupt enable flag.
enable flag instead of enable_intr() to restore it to its usual state.
getit() is only called from DELAY() so there is no point in optimising
its speed (this wasn't so clear when it was extern), and using
enable_intr() made it inconvenient to call DELAY() from probes that need
to run with interrupts disabled.
