72c66eec8f When we probe a SAB82532, return BUS_PROBE_GENERIC. This allows puc(4)
or scc(4) to grab the device by default. In fact, we probably shouldn't
even claim the device at all...

d8dc7b1b43 - Add support for using LOM (Lights Out Management) and RSC (Remote System
Control) devices as console. These are microcontrollers which are either
  on-board or part of an add-on card and provide terminal server, remote
  power switch and monitoring functionality. For console usage these are
  connected to the rest of the system via a SCC or an UART. This commit adds
  support for the following variants (corresponds to what 'input-device' and
  'output-device' have to be set to):
  rsc		found on-board in E250 and supposedly some Netra, connected
		via a SAB82532, com. parameters can be determined via OFW
  rsc-console	RSC card found in E280R, Fire V4x0, Fire V8x0, connected
		via a NS16550, hardwired to 115200 8N1
  lom-console	LOMlite2 card found in Netra 20/T4, connected via a NS16550,
		hardwired to 9600 8N1

- Add my copyright to uart_cpu_sparc64.c as I've rewritten about one third
  of that file over time.

c28ed44e28 Allow uart_bus_probe() to return the predefined BUS_PROBE_*
constants. In this case: just return what uart_bus_probe()
returns.

d128ff3218 On AXi and AXmp boards the NS16550 (used to connect keyboard and mouse)
share their IRQ lines with the i8042. Any IRQ activity (typically during
attach) on the NS16550 used to connect the keyboard when actually the
PS/2 keyboard is selected in OFW causes interaction with the OBP i8042
driver resulting in a hang (and vice versa). As RS232 keyboards and mice
obviously aren't meant to be used in parallel with PS/2 ones on these
boards don't attach to these NS16550 in case the RS232 keyboard isn't
selected in order to prevent such hangs.

f8c9f3a5e2 - Introduce an ofw_bus kobj-interface for retrieving the OFW node and a
subset ("compatible", "device_type", "model" and "name") of the standard
  properties in drivers for devices on Open Firmware supported busses. The
  standard properties "reg", "interrupts" und "address" are not covered by
  this interface because they are only of interest in the respective bridge
  code. There's a remaining standard property "status" which is unclear how
  to support properly but which also isn't used in FreeBSD at present.
  This ofw_bus kobj-interface allows to replace the various (ebus_get_node(),
  ofw_pci_get_node(), etc.) and partially inconsistent (central_get_type()
  vs. sbus_get_device_type(), etc.) existing IVAR ones with a common one.
  This in turn allows to simplify and remove code-duplication in drivers for
  devices that can hang off of more than one OFW supported bus.
- Convert the sparc64 Central, EBus, FHC, PCI and SBus bus drivers and the
  drivers for their children to use the ofw_bus kobj-interface. The IVAR-
  interfaces of the Central, EBus and FHC are entirely replaced by this. The
  PCI bus driver used its own kobj-interface and now also uses the ofw_bus
  one. The IVARs special to the SBus, e.g. for retrieving the burst size,
  remain.
  Beware: this causes an ABI-breakage for modules of drivers which used the
  IVAR-interfaces, i.e. esp(4), hme(4), isp(4) and uart(4), which need to be
  recompiled.
  The style-inconsistencies introduced in some of the bus drivers will be
  fixed by tmm@ in a generic clean-up of the respective drivers later (he
  requested to add the changes in the "new" style).
- Convert the powerpc MacIO bus driver and the drivers for its children to
  use the ofw_bus kobj-interface. This invloves removing the IVARs related
  to the "reg" property which were unused and a leftover from the NetBSD
  origini of the code. There's no ABI-breakage caused by this because none
  of these driver are currently built as modules.
  There are other powerpc bus drivers which can be converted to the ofw_bus
  kobj-interface, e.g. the PCI bus driver, which should be done together
  with converting powerpc to use the OFW PCI code from sparc64.
- Make the SBus and FHC front-end of zs(4) and the sparc64 eeprom(4) take
  advantage of the ofw_bus kobj-interface and simplify them a bit.

73bd4f76df In uart_ebus_probe(), match "su_pnp" besides "su" for ns8250 family
of UARTs. We already did this in uart_cpu_getdev().
While here, also check the compat name for "su" or "su16550".

0653dc7b1b Revert the introduction of iobase in struct uart_bas. Both the SAB82532
and the Z8530 drivers used the I/O address as a quick and dirty way to
determine which channel they operated on, but formalizing this by
introducing iobase is not a solution. How for example would a driver
know which channel it controls for a multi-channel UART that only has a
single I/O range?

Instead, add an explicit field, called chan, to struct uart_bas that
holds the channel within a device, or 0 otherwise. The chan field is
initialized both by the system device probing (i.e. a system console)
or it is passed down to uart_bus_probe() by any of the bus front-ends.
As such, it impacts all platforms and bus drivers and makes it a rather
large commit.

Remove the use of iobase in uart_cpu_eqres() for pc98. It is expected
that platforms have the capability to compare tag and handle pairs for
equality; as to determine whether two pairs access the same device or
not. The use of iobase for pc98 makes it impossible to formalize this
and turn it into a real newbus function later. This commit reverts
uart_cpu_eqres() for pc98 to an unimplemented function. It has to be
reimplemented using only the tag and handle fields in struct uart_bas.

Rewrite the SAB82532 and Z8530 drivers to use the chan field in struct
uart_bas. Remove the IS_CHANNEL_A and IS_CHANNEL_B macros. We don't
need to abstract anything anymore.

6efc7b093d The uart(4) driver is an universal driver for various UART hardware.
It improves on sio(4) in the following areas:
o  Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must
   for ia64 and sparc64,
o  Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm-
   ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports.
o  Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with
   various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the
   Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important
   for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs,
o  The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and
   remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support
   the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based).
o  The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to
   something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed
   on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling
   suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an
   UART when used as a debug port.

Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250
family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4):
o  The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes
   advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that
   since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware
   flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do,
   provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs
   are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for
   tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation.
o  The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4)
   and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks
   or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend,
   uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The
   question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current
   hardware.
o  There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision
   behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface.
   Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single
   expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly
   left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible
   to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for
   the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs.

The current list of missing features is:
o  No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is
   being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much
   compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with
   current hardware.
o  No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the
   ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having
   sufficient information to implement it properly.

As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the
software has gotten.
