userland code. Using apmd.conf, the apmd(8) configuration file, you
can select the APM events to be handled from userland and specify the
commands for a given event, allowing APM behaviour to be configured
flexibly.

1. Printing large quads in small bases overflowed the buffer if
sizeof(u_quad_t) > sizeof(u_long).
2. The sharpflag checks had operator precedence bugs due to excessive
parentheses in all the wrong places.
3. The explicit 0L was bogus in the quad_t comparison and useless in
the long comparision.
4. There was some more bitrot in the comment about ksprintn(). Our
ksprintn() handles bases up to 36 as well as down to 2.
Bruce has other complaints about using %q in kernel and would rather
we went towards using the C9X style %ll and/or %j. (I agree for that
matter, as long as gcc/egcs know how to deal with that.)

ASTs sometimes being discarded and softclock interrupts sometimes being
handled prematurely (sometimes = quite often on systems with shared PCI
interrupts, never on other systems).

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but it would have printed out:
/compat/linux/foo/bar.so: interpreter not found
If it was, then I've broken it. De-constifying the 'interp' variable
or carrying the constness through to elf_load_file() are alternatives.
Alpha believes that %q is for long long, whereas our quad_t and int64_t
is only just a plain long. long long on the alpha is the same size (64
bit) as a long. It was requested, but I have not implemented yet, support
for C9X style %lld - it should be pretty easy though.
the dynamic linker didn't clean up properly. A subsequent dlopen()
of the same object would appear to succeed.
Another excellent fix from Max Khon.

orthogonal.

gigabit ethernet adapters. This includes two single port cards
(single mode and multimode fiber) and two dual port cards (also single
mode and multimode fiber). SysKonnect is currently the only
vendor with a dual port gigabit ethernet NIC.
The ports on dual port adapters are treated as separate network
interfaces. Thus, if you have an SK-9844 dual port SX card, you
should have both sk0 and sk1 interfaces attached. Dual port cards
are implemented using two XMAC II chips connected to a single
SysKonnect GEnesis controller. Hence, dual port cards are really
one PCI device, as opposed to two separate PCI devices connected
through a PCI to PCI bridge. Note that SysKonnect's drivers use
the two ports for failover purposes rather that as two separate
interfaces, plus they don't support jumbo frames. This applies to
their Linux driver too. :)
Support is provided for hardware multicast filtering, BPF and
jumbo frames. The SysKonnect cards support TCP checksum offload
however this feature is not currently enabled (hopefully it will
be once we get checksum offload support).
There are still a few things that need to be implemeted, like
the ability to communicate with the on-board LM80 voltage/temperature
monitor, but I wanted to get the driver under CVS control and into
-current so people could bang on it.
A big thanks for SysKonnect for making all their programming info
for these cards (and for their FDDI and token ring cards) available
without NDA (see www.syskonnect.com).
large (1G) memory machine configurations. I was able to run 'dbench 32'
on a 32MB system without bring the machine to a grinding halt.
* buffer cache hash table now dynamically allocated. This will
have no effect on memory consumption for smaller systems and
will help scale the buffer cache for larger systems.
* minor enhancement to pmap_clearbit(). I noticed that
all the calls to it used constant arguments. Making
it an inline allows the constants to propogate to
deeper inlines and should produce better code.
* removal of inherent vfs_ioopt support through the emplacement
of appropriate #ifdef's, with John's permission. If we do not
find a use for it by the end of the year we will remove it entirely.
* removal of getnewbufloops* counters & sysctl's - no longer
necessary for debugging, getnewbuf() is now optimal.
* buffer hash table functions removed from sys/buf.h and localized
to vfs_bio.c
* VFS_BIO_NEED_DIRTYFLUSH flag and support code added
( bwillwrite() ), allowing processes to block when too many dirty
buffers are present in the system.
* removal of a softdep test in bdwrite() that is no longer necessary
now that bdwrite() no longer attempts to flush dirty buffers.
* slight optimization added to bqrelse() - there is no reason
to test for available buffer space on B_DELWRI buffers.
* addition of reverse-scanning code to vfs_bio_awrite().
vfs_bio_awrite() will attempt to locate clusterable areas
in both the forward and reverse direction relative to the
offset of the buffer passed to it. This will probably not
make much of a difference now, but I believe we will start
to rely on it heavily in the future if we decide to shift
some of the burden of the clustering closer to the actual
I/O initiation.
* Removal of the newbufcnt and lastnewbuf counters that Kirk
added. They do not fix any race conditions that haven't already
been fixed by the gbincore() test done after the only call
to getnewbuf(). getnewbuf() is a static, so there is no chance
of it being misused by other modules. ( Unless Kirk can think
of a specific thing that this code fixes. I went through it
very carefully and didn't see anything ).
* removal of VOP_ISLOCKED() check in flushbufqueues(). I do not
think this check is necessary, the buffer should flush properly
whether the vnode is locked or not. ( yes? ).
* removal of extra arguments passed to getnewbuf() that are not
necessary.
* missed cluster_wbuild() that had to be a cluster_wbuild_wb() in
vfs_cluster.c
* vn_write() now calls bwillwrite() *PRIOR* to locking the vnode,
which should greatly aid flushing operations in heavy load
situations - both the pageout and update daemons will be able
to operate more efficiently.
* removal of b_usecount. We may add it back in later but for now
it is useless. Prior implementations of the buffer cache never
had enough buffers for it to be useful, and current implementations
which make more buffers available might not benefit relative to
the amount of sophistication required to implement a b_usecount.
Straight LRU should work just as well, especially when most things
are VMIO backed. I expect that (even though John will not like
this assumption) directories will become VMIO backed some point soon.

clears out the transmit queue and zeroes the downlist pointer register,
but xl_txeof() isn't called before xl_start() tries to queue more packets,
xl_start() will think that the DMA is still in progress and not update
the downlist register again, thus causing packets to sit in the transmit
queue forever.

- Correctly observe the variable `extra_history_size' when changing
the size of history (scroll back) buffer.
- Added sc_free_history_buffer().
