FreeBSD/alpha. The most significant item is to change the command
argument to ioctl functions from int to u_long. This change brings us
inline with various other BSD versions. Driver writers may like to
use (__FreeBSD_version == 300003) to detect this change.
The prototype FreeBSD/alpha machdep will follow in a couple of days
time.
This introduce an xxxFS_BOOT for each of the rootable filesystems.
(Presently not required, but encouraged to allow a smooth move of option *FS
to opt_dontuse.h later.)
LFS is temporarily disabled, and will be re-enabled tomorrow.

- The `psm' driver is made to recognize various models of PS/2 mice
and enable their extra features so that their additional buttons and
wheel/roller are recognized. The name of the detected model will be
printed at boot time.
- A set of new ioctl functions are added to the `psm', `mse' and
`sysmouse' drivers so that the userland program (such as the X server)
can query device information and change driver settings.
- The wheel/roller movement is handled as the `Z' axis movement by the
mouse drivers and the moused daemon. The Z axis movement may be mapped
to another axis movement or buttons.
- The mouse drivers support a new, standard mouse data format,
MOUSE_PROTO_SYSMOUSE format which can encode x, y, and x axis movement
and up to 10 buttons.
/sys/i386/include/mouse.h
- Added some fields to `mousestatus_t' to store Z axis movement
and flag bits.
- Added the field `model' to `mousehw_t' to store mouse model code.
Defined model codes.
- Extended `mousemode_t'.
- Added new protocols and some constants for them.
- Added new ioctl functions and structures.
- Removed obsolete ioctl definitions.
/sys/i386/include/console.h
- Added `dz' field to the structure `mouse_data' to pass Z axis movement
to `syscons/sysmouse'.
- Removed LEFT_BUTTON, MIDDLE_BUTTON and RIGHT_BUTTON. Use button bits
defined in `mouse.h' instead.
/sys/i386/isa/psm.c
- Added a set of functions to detect various mice which have additional
features (wheel and buttons) unavailable in the standard PS/2 mouse.
- Refined existing ioctl functions and added new ones. Most important
of all is MOUSE_SETLEVEL which manipulates the output level of the driver.
While the output level remains zero, the output from the `psm' driver is
in the standard PS/2 mouse format (three bytes long). When the level
is set to one, the `psm' driver will send data in the extended format.
At the level two the driver uses the format which is native to the
connected mouse is used. (Meaning that the output from the device is
passed to the caller as is, unmodified.) The `psm' driver will pass
such extended data format as is to the caller if the output level is
two, but emulates the standard format if the output level is zero.
- Added kernel configuration flags to set initial resolution
(PSM_CONFIG_RESOLUTION) and acceleration (PSM_CONFIG_ACCEL).
- Removed the compile options PSM_ACCEL, PSM_CHECKSYNC and PSM_EMULATION.
Acceleration ratio is now specified by the kernel configuration flags
stated above. Sync check logic is refined and now standard.
The sync check can be turned off by the new kernel configuration flags
PSM_CONFIG_NOCHECKSYNC (0x100). PSM_EMULATION has been of little use.
- Summer clean up :-) Removed unused code and obsolete comments.
/sys/i386/isa/mse.c
- Created mseioctl() to deal with ioctl functions MOUSE_XXXX.
Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL ioctl will change the
output format from the 5 byte format to the new, extended format
so that the caller can take advantage of Z axis movement and additional
buttons.
- Use constants defined in `mouse.h' rather than magic numbers.
/sys/i386/isa/syscons.c
- Changed scioctl() to reflect the new `console.h' and some of the new
ioctls defined in `mouse.h'. Most importantly, the MOUSE_SETLEVEL
ioctl will change the `sysmouse' output format from the MouseSystems
5 byte format to the new, extended format so that the caller can
take advantage of Z axis movement and additional buttons.
- Added support for double/triple click actions of the left button and
single click action of the right button in the virtual console. The
left button double click will select a word under the mouse pointer.
The triple click will select a line and the single click of the right
button will extend the selected region to the current position of
the mouse pointer. This will make the cut/paste support more compatible
with xterm.
/sys/i386/isa/kbdio.h
- Added PSM_INTELLI_ID.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
most devsw referenced functions are now static, as they are
in the same file as their devsw structure. I've also added DEVFS
support for nearly every device in the system, however
many of the devices have 'incorrect' names under DEVFS
because I couldn't quickly work out the correct naming conventions.
(but devfs won't be coming on line for a month or so anyhow so that doesn't
matter)
If you "OWN" a device which would normally have an entry in /dev
then search for the devfs_add_devsw() entries and munge to make them right..
check out similar devices to see what I might have done in them in you
can't see what's going on..
for a laugh compare conf.c conf.h defore and after... :)
I have not doen DEVFS entries for any DISKSLICE devices yet as that will be
a much more complicated job.. (pass 5 :)
pass 4 will be to make the devsw tables of type (cdevsw * )
rather than (cdevsw)
seems to work here..
complaints to the usual places.. :)
to get the definitions of TRUE and FALSE which happen to be defined in
a deeply nested include.
Added nearby #includes of <sys/conf.h> where appropriate.
That's EVERY SINGLE driver that has an entry in conf.c..
my next trick will be to define cdevsw[] and bdevsw[]
as empty arrays and remove all those DAMNED defines as well..
Each of these drivers has a SYSINIT linker set entry
that comes in very early.. and asks teh driver to add it's own
entry to the two devsw[] tables.
some slight reworking of the commits from yesterday (added the SYSINIT
stuff and some usually wrong but token DEVFS entries to all these
devices.
BTW does anyone know where the 'ata' entries in conf.c actually reside?
seems we don't actually have a 'ataopen() etc...
If you want to add a new device in conf.c
please make sure I know
so I can keep it up to date too..
as before, this is all dependent on #if defined(JREMOD)
(and #ifdef DEVFS in parts)
totally dynamic.
this is only the devices in i386/isa
I'll do more tomorrow.
they're completely masked by #ifdef JREMOD at this stage...
the eventual aim is that every driver will do a SYSINIT
at startup BEFORE the probes, which will effectively
link it into the devsw tables etc.
If I'd thought about it more I'd have put that in in this set (damn)
The ioconf lines generated by config will also end up in the
device's own scope as well, so ioconf.c will eventually be gutted
the SYSINIT call to the driver will include a phase where the
driver links it's ioconf line into a chain of such. when this phase is done
then the user can modify them with the boot: -c
config menu if he wants, just like now..
config will put the config lines out in the .h file
(e.g. in aha.h will be the addresses for the aha driver to look.)
as I said this is a very small first step..
the aim of THIS set of edits is to not have to edit conf.c at all when
adding a new device.. the tabe will be a simple skeleton..
when this is done, it will allow other changes to be made,
all teh time still having a fully working kernel tree,
but the logical outcome is the complete REMOVAL of the devsw tables.
By the end of this, linked in drivers will be exactly the same as
run-time loaded drivers, except they JUST HAPPEN to already be linked
and present at startup..
the SYSINIT calls will be the equivalent of the "init" call
made to a newly loaded driver in every respect.
For this edit,
each of the files has the following code inserted into it:
obviously, tailored to suit..
----------------------somewhere at the top:
#ifdef JREMOD
#include <sys/conf.h>
#define CDEV_MAJOR 13
#define BDEV_MAJOR 4
static void sd_devsw_install();
#endif /*JREMOD */
---------------------somewhere that's run during bootup: EVENTUALLY a SYSINIT
#ifdef JREMOD
sd_devsw_install();
#endif /*JREMOD*/
-----------------------at the bottom:
#ifdef JREMOD
struct bdevsw sd_bdevsw =
{ sdopen, sdclose, sdstrategy, sdioctl, /*4*/
sddump, sdsize, 0 };
struct cdevsw sd_cdevsw =
{ sdopen, sdclose, rawread, rawwrite, /*13*/
sdioctl, nostop, nullreset, nodevtotty,/* sd */
seltrue, nommap, sdstrategy };
static sd_devsw_installed = 0;
static void sd_devsw_install()
{
dev_t descript;
if( ! sd_devsw_installed ) {
descript = makedev(CDEV_MAJOR,0);
cdevsw_add(&descript,&sd_cdevsw,NULL);
#if defined(BDEV_MAJOR)
descript = makedev(BDEV_MAJOR,0);
bdevsw_add(&descript,&sd_bdevsw,NULL);
#endif /*BDEV_MAJOR*/
sd_devsw_installed = 1;
}
}
#endif /* JREMOD */
misplaced extern declarations (mostly prototypes of interrupt handlers)
that this exposed. The prototypes should be moved back to the driver
sources when the functions are staticalized.
Added idempotency guards to <machine/conf.h>. "ioconf.h" can't be
included when building LKMs so define a wart in bsd.kmod.mk to help
guard against including it.
For those where it was easy, drivers were also fixed to call
dev_attach() during probe rather than attach (in keeping with the
new design articulated in a mail message five months ago). For
a few that were really easy, correct state tracking was added as well.
The `fd' driver was fixed to correctly fill in the description.
The CPU identify code was fixed to attach a `cpu' device. The code
was also massively reordered to fill in cpu_model with somethingremotely
resembling what identifycpu() prints out. A few bytes saved by using
%b to format the features list rather than lots of ifs.
Here is the improved probe for the mse (Bus Mouse) device driver. I
have been running with this under 1.1.5.1 as well as 2.0 without a hitch for
quite a while.

and all SCSI devices (except that it's not done quite the way I want). New
information added includes:
- A text description of the device
- A ``state''---unknown, unconfigured, idle, or busy
- A generic parent device (with support in the m.i. code)
- An interrupt mask type field (which will hopefully go away) so that
. ``doconfig'' can be written
This requires a new version of the `lsdev' program as well (next commit).
``changes'' are actually not changes at all, but CVS sometimes has trouble
telling the difference.
This also includes support for second-directory compiles. This is not
quite complete yet, as `config' doesn't yet do the right thing. You can
still make it work trivially, however, by doing the following:
rm /sys/compile
mkdir /usr/obj/sys/compile
ln -s M-. /sys/compile
cd /sys/i386/conf
config MYKERNEL
cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
ln -s /sys @
rm machine
ln -s @/i386/include machine
make depend
make
(rick@snowhite.cis.uoguelph.ca). I am currently using it with a Microsoft
InPort busmouse, under FreeBSD Epsilon. I hadn't planned on supporting it,
but I have patched it a few times, and I guess this is now the de facto
reference version, so send me any problems or improvements.
