LPC devices. Among other things, the LPC serial ports now appear as
ACPI devices.
- Move the info for the top-level PCI bus into the PCI emulation code and
add ResourceProducer entries for the memory ranges decoded by the bus
for memory BARs.
- Add a framework to allow each PCI emulation driver to optionally write
an entry into the DSDT under the \_SB_.PCI0 namespace. The LPC driver
uses this to write a node for the LPC bus (\_SB_.PCI0.ISA).
- Add a linker set to allow any LPC devices to write entries into the
DSDT below the LPC node.
- Move the existing DSDT block for the RTC to the RTC driver.
- Add DSDT nodes for the AT PIC, the 8254 ISA timer, and the LPC UART
devices.
- Add a "SuperIO" device under the LPC node to claim "system resources"
aling with a linker set to allow various drivers to add IO or memory
ranges that should be claimed as a system resource.
- Add system resource entries for the extended RTC IO range, the registers
used for ACPI power management, the ELCR, PCI interrupt routing register,
and post data register.
- Add various helper routines for generating DSDT entries.

to a virtual machine then we implicitly create COM1 and COM2 ISA devices.
Prior to this change the only way of attaching a COM port to the virtual
machine was by presenting it as a PCI device that is mapped at the legacy
I/O address 0x3F8 or 0x2F8.
There were some issues with the original approach:
- It did not work at all with UEFI because UEFI will reprogram the PCI device
BARs and remap the COM1/COM2 ports at non-legacy addresses.
- OpenBSD GENERIC kernel does not create a /dev/console because it expects
the uart device at the legacy 0x3F8/0x2F8 address to be an ISA device.
- It was functional with a FreeBSD guest but caused the console to appear
on /dev/ttyu2 which was not intuitive.
The uart emulation is now independent of the bus on which it resides. Thus it
is possible to have uart devices on the PCI bus in addition to the legacy
COM1/COM2 devices behind the LPC bus.
The command line option to attach ISA COM1/COM2 ports to a virtual machine is
"-s <bus>,lpc -l com1,stdio".
The command line option to create a PCI-attached uart device is:
"-s <bus>,uart[,stdio]"
The command line option to create PCI-attached COM1/COM2 device is:
"-S <bus>,uart[,stdio]". This style of creating COM ports is deprecated.
