2. Fixed code to match comment in scintr().
3. Don't allow even root to take control of the machine when securelevel > 0.
I've secured the accesses to PSL_IOPL in all drivers and asked pst to
review it, but he seems to be busy. Write access to /dev/kmem and
other critival devices currently leaks across raisings of securelevel
via open fd's, so there may as well be a similar leak for PSL_IOPL.
4. (Most important.) Don't corrupt memory beyond the screen buffers if
the cursor happens to be off the 80x25 screen when syscons starts.
5. Fix console cursor update (not perfect yet).

negative-logic flags (flags 0x01 and 0x02 for npx0, defaulting to unset = on).
This changes the default from off to on. The options have been in current
for several months with no problems reported.
Added a boot-time negative-logic flag for the old I5886_FAST_BCOPY option
which went away too soon (flag 0x04 for npx0, defaulting to unset = on).
Added a boot-time way to set the memory size (iosiz in config, iosize in
userconfig for npx0).
LINT:
Removed old options. Documented npx0's flags and iosiz.
options.i386:
Removed old options.
identcpu.c:
Don't set the function pointers here. Setting them has to be delayed
until after userconfig has had a chance to disable them and until after
a good npx0 has been detected.
machdep.c:
Use npx0's iosize instead of MAXMEM if it is nonzero.
support.s:
Added vectors and glue code for copyin() and copyout().
Fixed ifdefs for i586_bzero().
Added ifdefs for i586_bcopy().
npx.c:
Set the function pointers here.
Clear hw_float when an npx exists but is too broken to use.
Restored style from a year or three ago in npxattach().
2.2 are more obvious. -Winline is unimportant, but -W gives thousands
of warnings for comparisions. Turning off -W also loses warnings for:
- auto variables clobbered by longjmp. Not much of a problem in the kernel.
- functions returning without a value. I don't like losing this.
- an expression statement or the left side of a comma operand contains no
side effects. Turning this off also stops warnings for the low quality
debugging macros in gsc.c and lpt.c.

Turn the AHC_IN/OUT* macros into inline functions and lowercase their names

conditional memory mapped I/O would have been too gross.
Be smart about the STPWEN control bit in SCFRCTL1. It should only be set
if the low byte of the bus is to be terminated. We figure this out either
by "caching" the value left over from the BIOS setup before we reset the card
or by using the values stored in the seeprom if it is availible.

Stop setting STPWEN in the main driver and let the PCI front end do it

Add the clearing of the QOUTQCNT variable during command complete processing

Go back to doing unconditional retries for the QUEUE FULL status condition.
This is really a kludge, but the code to handle it properly is on the SCSI

1) get_free_or_disc_scb was not being passed its argument correctly

2) Add protection in the form of the QOUTQCNT variable to prevent

This should make SCB Paging work. Really, I mean it now. 8-)

Fix the other packet-information socket options (SO_TIMESTAMP, IP_RECVDSTADDR)

worked for unicast UDP).
This allows the user to add modify syscons's configuration flags using
UserConfig that will allow older/quirky hardware (most notably older IBM
ThinkPad laptops) to work with the standard boot kernel.

This follows more closely the suggestions in the latest NCR docs, and has
been running on my system for weeks with no problem. It does improve the
quality of diagnostic messages and does allow to better understand the
sequence of events in case of an error.
This should go into 2.2 and 2.1.6.
This fixes several bugs and one missing feature:
- cluster_read() was needlessly used for reading files of size exactly 1
block.
- EFAULT errors for read didn't terminate the loop. This was probably
harmless.
- IO_VMIO handling was missing near line 275. I don't know what this does.
- B_CLUSTEROK was only set if (doclusterwrite) nead line 293. This was
harmless, if only because another bug prevents doclusterwrite from being
0.
- MNT_NOATIME wasn't implemented.
This should be in 2.2, of course.

existing mechanism uses a global queue for some buffers and the
vp->b_dirtyblkhd queue for others. This turns sequential writes into
randomly ordered writes to the server, affecting both read and write
performance. The existing mechanism also copes badly with hung
servers, tending to block accesses to other servers when all the iods
are waiting for a hung server.
The new mechanism uses a queue for each mount point. All asynchronous
i/o goes through this queue which preserves the ordering of requests.
A simple mechanism ensures that the iods are shared out fairly between
active mount points. This removes the sysctl variable vfs.nfs.dwrite
since the new queueing mechanism removes the old delayed write code
completely.
This should go into the 2.2 branch.
