retiring the " = {" method of of action specification in favor of a
plain "{". It is no longer necessary for this bootstrap program to
be compatible with 6th Edition systems. Some yaccs in the wild do not
support this old syntax any more, and compatibility with those systems
is more important these days (as there are easily 7 orders of magnitude
more of them than real v6 systems today).

this bug and submitted these patches to dunstan@. He sent them to me
to test, and I discovered they were needed for the atmel kernel config
files. Since we were playing with them in the terminal room after the
developer's summit today, I thought I'd go ahead and commit them to
allow those folks that now have atmel hardware (thanks Andre) a chance
to try it out w/o my help. Since dunstan@ is asleep right now, risk
stepping on his toes a little by going ahead and committing this

This change will let us to have full configuration of a running kernel
available in sysctl:
sysctl -b kern.conftxt
The same configuration is also contained within the kernel image. It can be
obtained with:
config -x <kernelfile>
Current functionality lets you to quickly recover kernel configuration, by
simply redirecting output from commands presented above and starting kernel
build procedure. "include" statements are also honored, which means options
and devices from included files are also included.
Please note that comments from configuration files are not preserved by
default. In order to preserve them, you can use -C flag for config(8). This
will bring configuration file and included files literally; however,
redirection to a file no longer works directly.

directory before the specified config file. This is implemented by
opening DEFAULTS as stdin if it exists, and if so resetting stdin to the
actual config file when DEFAULTS is fully parsed via yywrap(). In short,
this lets us create DEFAULTS kernel configs in /sys/<arch>/conf that can
enable certain options or devices by default and allow users to disable
them via 'nooptions' or 'nodevice' rather than having to create kludge
NO_FOO options.

Remove heuristics that tried to parse "device ed5" as 5 units of the ed

quotes to make it parse right. The no-longer-needed quotes have been
removed from NOTES, GENERIC etc. eg, I've removed the quotes from:
device snd_maestro
device "snd_maestro3"
device snd_mss
I believe everything will still compile and work after this.

Fixed memory leak in the "nodevice" option implementation.
Use these instead of sed(1) in MD NOTES.
Use a single makefile (sys/conf/makeLINT.mk) to generate
LINT for all architectures. (Previous versions missed
the LINT dependency on Makefile, and i386 version also
missed the dependency on ${NOTES}.)
Fixed bugs in the previous NOTES conversion using the
"nodevice" token and sed(1):
- i386 LINT lost "device pst".
- pc98 LINT lost SC_*, MAXCONS and KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOAD
options, and got needless DPT_* options.
- Added nooptions PPC_DEBUG, PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET, KBD_INSTALL_CDEV
to sparc64 LINT so that it has a chance to config(8).
This basically returns us to where we were before.
to be included into this one. This works the same way as #include
does in C; as far as the user is concerned, the included file is
inlined into the current one.
Since config(8) is no longer limited to working on one user-supplied
file, printing just a line number in an error message is not
sufficient. The new global variable yyfile represents the file
currently being parsed, and must be printed as well.

as a replacement for the evil #define NFOO. If 'device npx' is in the
static kernel, a synthetic option '#define DEV_NPX 1' will be available

"#ifdef DEV_NPX" and we can get rid of the overloaded meaning of the
device count mechanism.
Use Warner Losh's "hint" driver to decode ascii strings to fill the

config(8) no longer generates an ioconf.c table - ie: the configuration
no longer has to be compiled into the kernel. You can reconfigure your
isa devices with the likes of this at loader(8) time:
set hint.ed.0.port=0x320
userconfig will be rewritten to use this style interface one day and will
move to /boot/userconfig.4th or something like that.
It is still possible to statically compile in a set of hints into a kernel
if you do not wish to use loader(8). See the "hints" directive in GENERIC
as an example.
All device wiring has been moved out of config(8). There is a set of
helper scripts (see i386/conf/gethints.pl, and the same for alpha and pc98)
that extract the 'at isa? port foo irq bar' from the old files and produces
a hints file. If you install this file as /boot/device.hints (and update
/boot/defaults/loader.conf - You can do a build/install in sys/boot) then
loader will load it automatically for you. You can also compile in the
hints directly with: hints "device.hints" as well.
There are a few things that I'm not too happy with yet. Under this scheme,
things like LINT would no longer be useful as "documentation" of settings.
I have renamed this file to 'NOTES' and stored the example hints strings
in it. However... this is not something that config(8) understands, so
there is a script that extracts the build-specific data from the
documentation file (NOTES) to produce a LINT that can be config'ed and
built. A stack of man4 pages will need updating. :-/
Also, since there is no longer a difference between 'device' and
'pseudo-device' I collapsed the two together, and the resulting 'device'
takes a 'number of units' for devices that still have it statically
allocated. eg: 'device fe 4' will compile the fe driver with NFE set
to 4. You can then set hints for 4 units (0 - 3). Also note that
'device fe0' will be interpreted as "zero units of 'fe'" which would be
bad, so there is a config warning for this. This is only needed for
old drivers that still have static limits on numbers of units.
All the statically limited drivers that I could find were marked.

the need to specify the unit number of unwired devices. ie: instead
of saying "device fxp0" we can say "device fxp" which is much closer
to what it actually means. The former (fxp0) implied something about
reserving the 0th unit, but it does not and never did - it was a
figment of config(8)'s imagination that we had to work around..
"device fxp0" simply means "compile in the fxp device driver", so we
may as well just write it as "device fxp" which is closer to what it
really means.
Doing this also saves us from filling up the ioconf.c tables with
meaningless entries.
- redo the "at" configuration system so that it just syntax checks
to make sure the device you're configuring something "at" appears to
exist. Nuke a bunch of complexity that was responsible for creating
"clones" of wildcard devices and some wierd stuff in a few places
including the scbus config tables etc.
- merge "controller" and "device" - there is no difference as far as
the kernel is concernend, it's just something there to make life
difficult for config file writers. "controller" is now an alias for
"device".
- emit full scsi config into the resource tables. We could trivially
change cam to use that rather than it's own "special" table for wiring
and static configuration. ATA could use this too for static wiring.
- try and emulate some of the quirks of the old system where it made
sense. Some were too strange though and I'd be very suprised if they
were features and not outright bugs. nexus handling is still strange.
One thing in particular is that some of the wierd entries in the
newbus devtables is now gone as it was a quirk side effect of the
wildcard/question-mark cloning above.
