* Re-work the resource allocation code to use helper functions in subr_bus.c.
* Add simple isa interface for manipulating the resource ranges which can be
allocated and remove the code from isa_write_ivar() which was previously
used for this purpose.
Change haveseen_isadev() to something a little easier to emulate.
Store the device_t for the wrapper in isa_device.
Implement a replacement for haveseen_isadev - namely haveseen_ioport()
which takes a port size as an extra argument for a proper range check.
This (haveseen_ioport()) has not been tested, but I think it'll work.
because the act of doing the release kills the hints(!). A quirk of
the wrapper caused it to reset all the settings, except perhaps for the
memory address. I've tested this with a real SMC 8013EPC - which uses
shared memory addresses - it seems to work OK.
i386 platform boots, it is no longer ISA-centric, and is fully dynamic.
Most old drivers compile and run without modification via 'compatability
shims' to enable a smoother transition. eisa, isapnp and pccard* are
not yet using the new resource manager. Once fully converted, all drivers
will be loadable, including PCI and ISA.
(Some other changes appear to have snuck in, including a port of Soren's
ATA driver to the Alpha. Soren, back this out if you need to.)
This is a checkpoint of work-in-progress, but is quite functional.
The bulk of the work was done over the last few years by Doug Rabson and
Garrett Wollman.
