1) i586_bcopy() problem
There have been a number of reports that the syscons doesn't work
properly if i586_bcopy() is enabled.
The problem prevented users from installing 2.2(.1)-RELEASE. The
symptom is that the system looks frozen during device probe or just
before the main installation menu. The workaround was to specify the
flag 0x01 to the npx device so that i586_bcopy() is disabled.
The patch forces the syscons to call generic_bcopy() when copying
to/from the video memory, even if CPU is Pentium and i586_bcopy() is
enabled. i586_bcopy() is still called for copy operations between
non-video memory regions.

2) video mode parameter table problem
The syscons reads and uses the video mode parameter table provided by
the VGA BIOS to set VGA registers when changing video mode and
modifying font data. It appears that in some VGA BIOSes the table is
not ordered as the syscons expects, and this leads to screen
corruption.
The problem prevented users from installing 2.2(.1)-RELEASE. The
symptom is the corrupt screen or strange vertical lines soon after the
kernel is loaded into memory (just after the kernel decompression).
The patch performs simplistic test and if it fails, set video_mode_ptr
to NULL so that the video mode switching won't happen.
This is an interim kludge. There should be a better way to deal with
the problem.

There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.
The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.
There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.

if SCB Paging was enabled:
disconnect with more data to transfer
disconnected SCB gets paged out
target reconnects so we page SCB back in
target completes transfer so residual is 0
target disconnects
SCB gets reused but not paged out since the residual is 0 (optimization)
target reconnects so we page the SCB back in
we report a residual because of stale residual information.
The fix for this is to set a flag that forces the SCB to be paged back
up to the host if we page in an SCB with a residual

Add a missing call to "add_scb_to_free_list" in the non paging case. In

So far, there have been two independent reports from Dell Latitude XPi
notebook/laptop owners. The Latitude seems to be the only system which
suffers from this problem. (I don't know the problem is with the
entire Latitude line or with only some Latitude models) No problem
report has been heard about other systems (I certainly cannot
reproduce the problem in my -current and 2.2 systems).
In 3.0-CURRENT, 2.2-RELEASE and 2.2-GAMMA-970310, when programming the
keyboard LED/repeat-rate, `set_keyboard()' in `syscons' tells the
keyboard controller not to generate keyboard interrupt (IRQ1) and then
enable tty interrupts, expecting the keyboard interrupt doesn't occur.
It appears that somehow Latitude's keyboard controller still generates
the keyboard interrupt thereafter, and `set_keyboard()' doesn't see
the return code from the keyboard because it is consumed by the
keyboard interrupt handler.
The patch entirely disables tty interrupts while setting LED and
typematic rate in `set_keyboard()', making the routine behave more
like the previous versions of `syscons' (versions in 2.1.X and
2.2-ALPHA, -BETA, and some -GAMMAs). The reporter said this patch
eliminated the problem.
(I also found another typo/bug, but the reporter and I found that it
wasn't the cause of the problem...)
This should go into RELENG_2_2.
