This is especially useful since PUC_FASTINTR hangs the kernel boot on my
ultra60 which has two uart(4) devices hung off of a puc(4) device.
I did not enable PUC_FASTINTR by default on powerpc since powerpc does not

This kernel config briefly describes some of the major MAC policies
available on FreeBSD. The hope is that this will raise the awareness
about MAC and get more people interested.

psm(4), ukbd(4), ums(4) and usb(4) on by default. Modulo some nits with
the most annoying one probably being USB keyboards no longer working at
the OFW boot prompt after halting FreeBSD these drivers work fine on
sparc64 including X and there's nothing left that I'd consider a show-
stopper. I.e. graphical consoles on sun4u machines should either work
out of the box or by plugging in a card that is supported by either
creator(4) or machfb(4). The exception obviously are SBus-only machines
without UPA slots like some Ultra 1 (but which also still lack support
in other areas) and certain Exx0 (but which probably are mainly used
with serial consoles anyway). I'll try to add a cgsix(4) for these later
as Sun CG6 cards are probably the most common SBus framebuffer cards in
sun4u machines. I however don't see much sense in adding drivers for the
dozen of SBus framebuffers that were destined for sparc v8 machines.
The rest of the USB drivers aren't enabled as I'm only aware of ukbd(4)
and ums(4) as well as ohci(4) working with the on-board ALI M5237 and
Sun PCIO-2 controllers. Aue(4) definitely doesn't work on sparc64, yet.
Thanks to:
- Jake for the initial work on syscons(4) on sparc64 and creator(4).
- Marcel for uart(4) and especially for its support for the SCCs which
are only used on sparc64 so far. In various regards it wouldn't have
been possible to enable syscons(4) by default on sparc64, yet, without
uart(4).

- Replace "graphics cards" with "framebuffers" in the description

respectively). This driver currently only prints out information about
the chassis on attach and allows to blink the 'Cycling' LED (which is
duplicated on the front panel) of the clock board just like fhc(4) does
for the other boards. The device name for the LED is /dev/led/clockboard.

o Disable ofw_console(4), sab(4) and zs(4).
sab(4) and zs(4) are disabled because the hardware controlled by
them is handled by uart(4)+puc(4) and the latter combination is
functionally complete and up to date.
ofw_console(4) is disabled because it doesn't claim the device it
controls (through OFW) and thus interferes with puc(4)+uart(4),
which has sufficient knowledge to extract the necessary information
from OFW to setup the console. Put differently, ofw_console(4) is
not a proper device driver and can only do harm. Its functionality
is completely handled by uart(4).
This commit makes uart(4) the default driver for serial ports.

cs4231 driver and heavily modified to incorporate into sound(4)
infrastructure. Due to the lack of APCDMA documentation, the DMA
code of SBus cs4231 came from OpenBSD's driver.
The driver runs without Giant lock and supports both SBus and EBus

feedbacks during the driver writing. His feedback made it possible
to write hiccup free playback code under high system loads.

thus it becomes a standard part of the network stack.
If no hooks are connected the entire packet filter hooks section and related
activities are jumped over. This removes any performance impact if no hooks

Both OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD have integrated PFIL_HOOKS permanently as well.

would work but I'm not sure if they are endian-clean and can't test. There
was a report that sk(4) works on sparc64 but it doesn't look like it would

a kernel created entirely out of modules. Of course, there is nothing
preventing the kernel from having these statically compiled.

This is a bit overdue, the new sparc64 OFW PCI code which is
meant to replace the old one is in place for 10 months and

the #ifdefs for OFW_NEWPCI, remove unused resp. no longer
