Introduce BUF_STRATEGY(struct buf *, int flag) macro, and use it throughout.
please see comment in sys/conf.h about the flag argument.
Remove strategy argument from all the diskslice/label/bad144
implementations, it should be found from the dev_t.
Remove bogus and unused strategy1 routines.
Remove open/close arguments from dssize(). Pick them up from dev_t.
Remove unused and unfinished setgeom support from diskslice/label/bad144 code.
The atapi subsystem has gotten better error handeling and timeouts,
it also tries a REQUEST SENSE command when devices returns errors,
to give a little more info as to what went wrong. It might be a
little verbose for now, but I'm interested in as much feedback on
errors as possible, especially timeouts, as I'm a bit in doubt if
I've chosen resonable default values everywhere.
The disk driver has been changed a bit to prepare for tagged queing,
which is next on my list.
The disk driver has grown a dump routine, I got one implementation
from Darrell Anderson <anderson@cs.duke.edu> which also did
partial dumps (usefull on big memory machines) I left out the
partial stuff for now, and changed the rest alot to fit into the new
ad_request framework.
Some minor cleanups and rearrangements as well.
As usual USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!, this is still pre alpha level code.
Especially the DMA support can hose your disk real bad if anything
goes wrong, again you have been warned :)
Notebook owners should be carefull that their machines dont suspend
as this might cause trouble...
But please tell me how it works for you!
Enjoy!

The cdevsw_add() function now finds the major number(s) in the
struct cdevsw passed to it. cdevsw_add_generic() is no longer
needed, cdevsw_add() does the same thing.
cdevsw_add() will print an message if the d_maj field looks bogus.
Remove nblkdev and nchrdev variables. Most places they were used
bogusly. Instead check a dev_t for validity by seeing if devsw()
or bdevsw() returns NULL.
Move bdevsw() and devsw() functions to kern/kern_conf.c
Bump __FreeBSD_version to 400006
This commit removes:
72 bogus makedev() calls
26 bogus SYSINIT functions
if_xe.c bogusly accessed cdevsw[], author/maintainer please fix.
I4b and vinum not changed. Patches emailed to authors. LINT
probably broken until they catch up.
Reformat and initialize correctly all "struct cdevsw".
Initialize the d_maj and d_bmaj fields.
The d_reset field was not removed, although it is never used.
I used a program to do most of this, so all the files now use the
same consistent format. Please keep it that way.
Vinum and i4b not modified, patches emailed to respective authors.
Fixed problems:
LS120/ZIP drives still currupted data.
Reworked once again, buffered I/O is just ignoring any sizehints
it is given :(
Now the atapifd driver splits up requests for devices that has
limitted transfer size.
ISA only configs fails on boot with interrupt timeouts.
The new-bus integration introduced a bug where the softc ptr
was lost during the probe.
Some minor cleanups and rearrangements as well.
As usual USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!, this is still pre alpha level code.
Especially the DMA support can hose your disk real bad if anything
goes wrong, again you have been warned :)
Notebook owners should be carefull that their machines dont suspend
as this might cause trouble...
But please tell me how it works for you!

Fixed problems:
LS120 drives currupted data.
The workaround for drives not supporting upto 64K transfers
has been reworked. It works now both on LS120 & ZIP drives.
ISA only configs wont compile.
Fixed.
The ATA driver wont share interrupts.
Fixed.
The "unwanted interrupt" warning gave wrong controller.
Another lun<>unit messup from the newbus integration.
Some minor cleanups and rearrangements as well.

Fixed problems:
Promise controllers was not always set up correctly.
Parantheses are a good thing, fixed.
Some older CDROM's could hang the probe.
Proberly wait for the drive to catch its breath after IDENTIFY.
Some CD writers fails because they dont support rezero.
Rearranged the code to not use rezero.
Warnings now that we use EGCS.
Fixed.
Well, better late than newer, but things has been hectic
around here, sorry for the long delay.
DMA support has been added to the ATA disk driver.
This only works on Intel PIIX3/4, Acer Aladdin and Promise controllers.
The promise support works without the BIOS on the board,
and timing modes are set to support up to UDMA speed. This
solves the problems with having more than one promise controller
in the same system.
There is support for "generic" DMA, that might work on other
controllers, but now you have been warned :)
More chipset specific code will come soon, I have to find testers
with the approbiate HW, more on that when I have it ready.
The system now uses its own major numbers, please run MAKEDEV
with the devices you need (ad?, acd?, afd?, ast?).
For now the disk driver will also attach to the old wd major
so one can at least boot without this step, but be warned, this
will eventually go away. The bootblocks will have to be changed
before one can boot directly from an "ad" device though.
Fixed problems:
All known hang problems should be solved
The probe code has been sligthly changed, this should solve
the reports I have lying around (I hope).
Hangs when accessing ata & atapi device on the same channel simultaniously.
A real braino in ata_start caused this, fixed.
As usual USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!, this is still pre alpha level code.
Especially the DMA support can hose your disk real bad if anything
goes wrong, agaiin you have been warned :)
But please tell me how it works for you!

reports on those most welcome!
Fixed problems:
Hang on probe on "fantom" devices.
The probe now use a timeout to avoid hangs if no interrupt
is recevied.
There has also been more general code clenaups, and some reorgs.
interrupts are enabled, this kills the last "unwanted interrupts"
(and there is no ugly hacks like in the old driver to avoid them).
COmmand interrupt devices are now supported, this applies mostly
to older CDROM's and apparently also the ZIP.
Fixed problems:
Number of total sectors wrong on some older drives.
Fixed by not using the LBA size unless we know its valid.
There has also been more general code clenaups, some reorgs also.
Added "options ATA_STATIC_ID" that wires ATA disks like the old wd driver.
Fixed problems:
Dont use more sectors/intr than the drive supports.
Fix announce of > 8.4G disks.
Dont call ad_interrupt/ad_transfer when no disks config'd.
Use the right page# for CDR write mode params.
Fix breakage when no PCI support in kernel.
Implement DEVFS stuff.
General code clenaup.
