for testing.. (for cdevsw_add and bdevsw_add)
make the lkm code use the new generic devsw add routines (if so required)
define these routines in conf.h so we can use them
This is really just a token gesture at this point. We can't really turn
on swapping here anymore because (I think) we need to do a namei() lookup
in order to get a vnode which we can pass to swaponvp(). But to do a
namei(), we need a properly initialized proc structure, and we don't
have one. (I was hopping to toss it proc0, but that isn't initialized
until later.) We could conceiveably fabricate a dummy proc structure
to make namei() happy, but that's too much work for too little payoff.
For now, swapgeneric's only remaining saving grace is that it lets
you set the root device with -a.
example without optios would create floppies that waste half of their
space in i-node areas. :) (Comment only)
Add a sample entry for a Sony 650 MB MOD.
This is a place for all things to do with conf.c and conf.h
that are not machine specific.
Other things that are at present in i386/isa/conf.c might
migrate into here..
It's the first small step in cleaning up the device interface
to make it more dynamic and to assist in more modular drivers
(i.e. both loadable via LKMs and linked in..
e.g able to add a device without having to edit conf.c)
this code is not yet used and the whole thing will be conditionally
compiled in for a while till proven useful :)
matching IP options..Check and test this - i made only a couple
of rough tests and this could be buggy.. Ipaccounting can't use
IP Options (and i don't see any need to cound packets with specific
options either..)
More to come...
sh -c [-aCefinuvx] command_string [ command_name [argument ...] ] 1

-c Read commands from the command_string operand. Set the
value of special parameter 0 (see 3.5.2) from the value of
the command_name operand and the positional parameters
($1, $2, etc.) in sequence from the remaining argument
operands.

1542 revs work by assuming the next few sequential ID codes are
new Adaptec boards and enabling them after printing a warning.
Conditionalize the informational boot messages with "if (bootverbose)".
1) "obj" was't initialized properly, resulting in an important vm_page_lookup
always failing (resulting in a panic).
2) busy pages could be put on the cache queue or freed (resulting in a panic).
to return ECHILD, which causes the while loop to run forever.
