Rename vt(4) vga module to dismiss interference with syscons(4) vga module.
267623 Log:
Remove stale link to deleted vt(4) xboxfb driver.
267624 Log:
syscons(4) and vt(4) can be built together now.
267625 Log:
Allow to disable syscons(4) if "hw.syscons.disable" kenv is set.
267626 Log:
Suspend vt(4) initialization if "kern.vt.disable" kenv is set.
267965 by emaste@ Log:
Use a common tunable to choose between vt(4)/sc(4)
With this change and previous work from ray@ it will be possible to put
both in GENERIC, and have one enabled by default, but allow the other to
be selected via the loader.
(The previous implementation had separate kern.vt.disable and
hw.syscons.disable tunables, and would panic if both drivers were
compiled in and neither was explicitly disabled.)

Fix vt(4) detection in kbdcontrol and vidcontrol
As sc(4) and vt(4) coexist and are both enabled in GENERIC, the existence
of a vt(4) sysctl is not sufficient to determine that vt(4) is in use.

Add vt(4) to GENERIC and retire the separate VT config
vt(4) and sc(4) can now coexist in the same kernel. To choose the vt
driver, set the loader tunable kern.vty=vt .

vt(4) support for vidcontrol(1).
o Teach vidcontrol(1) how to load vt(4) font.
o Teach vidcontrol(1) to distinct which virtual terminal system is running now.
o Load vt(4) fonts from different location.
o Add $FreeBSD$ tag for path.h.
vt(4) support for kbdcontrol(1).
Enable kbdcontrol(1) to use maps from vt(4) keymaps dir /usr/share/vt/keymaps
if vt(4) is present.

None of the symbols provided by kbdcontrol.c are used by other source
files of this binary. Slightly reduce the binary size and make much more
symbols read-only by adding proper static and const keywords.
Just take keyent_t to use an u_int to store the Unicode codepoints.
Unfortunately the keymap is now too big to be loaded using an ioctl
argument, so change the ioctl to pick a pointer.
This change breaks kbdcontrol ABI. It doesn't break X11, because X11
doesn't do anything with syscons keymaps. It just switches the device
out of K_XLATE.

In preparation for Unicode support for the keyboard layer, we'd better
get rid of all the hardcoded 0x100/0xff constants in kbdcontrol.
Instead, add a flag called SPECIAL stored in the top bit of the integer.
Adding Unicode support is very simple now; just change u_char map[] to
u_int map[] in keyent_t, change the bounds checking in kbdcontrol to
0x1FFFFF and modify the ioctls to allow loading these new keymaps.
o Slightly change KBADDKBD and KBRELKBD ioctl() interface. Instead of passing
keyboard index pass keyboard_info_t structure with populated 'kb_unit' and
'kb_name' fields. Keyboard index is not very user-friendly and is not very
easy to obtain. Keyboard driver name and unit, on the other hand, is much
more user friendly and known almost all the time;
o Move definition of keyboard_info_t structure up;
o Teach kbdcontrol(1) how to attach/detach keyboards to/from the keyboard
multiplexor;
o Update kbdcontrol(1) man page and document new functionality.
To attach/detach keyboard to/from keyboard multiplexor one needs to use
keyboard device name (i.e. ukbd0).

the -c option [when CONS_CLRHIST isn't defined]. This is okay since
the only time CONS_CLRHIST wouldn't be defined is when kbdcontrol is
being built in bootstrap-tools, and -c isn't needed then.

Replace all in-tree uses with necessary subset of <sys/{fb,kb,cons}io.h>.
This is also the appropriate fix for exo-tree sources.
Put warnings in <machine/console.h> to discourage use.
November 15th 2000 the warnings will be converted to errors.
January 15th 2001 the <machine/console.h> files will be removed.
- Refined internal interface in keyboard drivers so that:
1. the side effect of device probe is kept minimal,
2. polling mode function is added,
3. and new ioctl and configuration options are added (see below).
- Added new ioctl: KDSETREPEAT
Set keyboard typematic rate. There has existed an ioctl command,
KDSETRAD, for the same purpose. However, KDSETRAD is dependent on
the AT keyboard. KDSETREPEAT provides more generic interface.
KDSETRAD will still be supported in the atkbd driver.
- Added new configuration options:
ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
Specify a keymap to be used as the default, built-in keymap.
(There has been undocumented options, DKKEYMAP, UKKEYMAP, GRKEYMAP,
SWKEYMAP, RUKEYMAP, ESKEYMAP, and ISKEYMAP to set the default keymap.
These options are now gone for good. The new option is more general.)
KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOADING
Don't allow the user to change the keymap.
With a keymap with accent key definitions loaded to syscons, you press
an accent key followed by a regular letter key to produce an accented
letter. Press an accent key followed by the space bar to get the
accent letter itself.
Code is based on the ideas and work by jmrueda@diatel.upm.es and
totii@est.is.

- Added keywords for accent (dead) keys: dgra, dacu, dcir, dtil...
- Recognize accent map definitions.
<accent_map_definition> ::= <accent_key_name> <accent_char> <accent_map>
<accent_key_name> ::= dgra | dacu | dcir | dtil | dmac | dbre | ddot |
duml | dsla | drin | dced | dapo | ddac | dogo |
dcar
<accent_map> ::= <map_entry>
| <map_entry> <accent_map>
<map_entry> ::= ( <regular_letter_char> <accented_char> )
- Use ioctls PIO_DEADKEYMAP and GIO_DEADKEYMAP to set and get the accent
key map table in syscons.
- Made the output for the -L option more intelligible and look like
initializers in kbdtables.h.
- Reorganized print functions in order to print the accent key map.
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.
