Garrett Wollman sent me this code a few weeks ago for review, and I made
some significant changes, which he in turn accepted ...
In order to make use of these changes, a device entry has to added to /dev.

there is keyboard input.
The mousepointer is shown again immediately if moved.
Also a function pointer used to install a userwritten extra
ioctl handler (sc_user_ioctl). This way its is possible to
install user defined videomodes etc etc. No further changes
should be in the kernel.
<net/if_arp.h> and fixed the things that depended on it. The nested
include just allowed unportable programs to compile and made my
simple #include checking program report that networking code doesn't
need to include <sys/socket.h>.
I have only tested the ABP5140 card and only with a single CDROM drive
but it seems to work fine. This driver relies on features found only in
the SCSI branch so will not work in -current until those changes
are brought in. It also doesn't have any error handling code *yet*.
The goal is to use this driver as the development platform for the new
generic SCSI layer error recovery/handling code.
PCI and EISA front ends will show up as soon as I get my hands on
the cards. There are also a few issues in the driver that I need
to clear up with AdvanSys before I can suggest sticking one of
these cards in your server. 8-)
Thanks to AdvanSys for releasing this code under a suitable copyright.

divisor latch registers if the registers wouldn't change.
Use the default console cfcr setting while setting the divisor
latch registers for console i/o. Input may be messed up by
transiently changing the cfcr.
Use a usual cfcr setting while setting the divisor latch registers
in the probe. This shouldn't matter, but this is not the place to
test the UART's handling of 5 bit words.
Removed a stale devfs comment.
not resuming the NIC as required for transmit. Thanks to Alan Cox
<alc@cs.rice.edu> for noticing this.
Added another performance optimization to compensate. :-)
Changed crscdt to 1...strange, but this seems to be needed for some reason
despite what the manual says.
ring that caused wrong things to happen sometimes.
Doubled the number of transmit descriptors to 128 so that the internal
FIFO in the NIC can be fully filled when dealing with small packets.
Several minor performance improvements.
- don't include <sys/ioctl.h> in any header. Include <sys/ioccom.h>
instead. This was already done in 4.4Lite for the most important
ioctl headers. Header spam currently increases kernel build
times by 10-20%. There are more than 30000 #includes (not counting
duplicates) for compiling LINT.
- include <sys/types.h> if and only it is necessary to make the header
almost self-sufficient (some ioctl headers still need structs from
elsewhere).
- uniformized idempotency ifdefs. Copied the style in the 4.4Lite
ioctl headers.
to deal with the fact that we relied on devconf to do the shutdown
callouts in various drivers. The changes in this commit are to add support
for device shutdown in this driver via the new at_shutdown() mechanism.
Similar changes need to be made to all of the other drivers that need
a shutdown routine called (if_de.c comes to mind immediately).
changes. This version should fix a number of bugs such as with auto-
speed sensing and at least one known panic.

syscons.c:
Added missing spl locking in sccncheckc(). Return the same value as
sccngetc() would. It is wrong for sccngetc() to return non-ASCII, but
stripping the non-ASCII bits doesn't help.

the same strings as the previous revision.

and xdm, possibly in general.
What was happening was that the server was doing a tcsetattr(.. TCSADRAIN)
on the mouse fd after a write. Since /dev/sysmouse had a null t_oproc,
the drain failed with EIO. Somehow this spammed XFree86 (!@&^#%*& binary
release!!), and the driver was left in a bogus state (ie: switch_in_progress
permanently TRUE).
The simplest way out was to implement a dummy scmousestart() routine to
accept any characters from the tty system and toss them into the void.
It would probably be more correct to intercept scwrite()'s to the mouse
device, but that's executed for every single write to the screen.
Supplying a start routine to eat the characters is only executed for the
mouse port during startup/shutdown, so it should be faster.
This enables other consumers of the mouse, to get it info via
moused/syscons.
In order to use it run moused (from sysconfig), and then tell
your Xserver that it should use /dev/sysmouse (mknod sysmouse c 12 128)
and it a mousesystems mouse. Everybody will be happy then :)
Remember that moused still needs to know what kind of mouse you
have..
Comments welcome, as is test results...
(A pointer to a const was misused to avoid loading loading the same
value twice, but gcc does exactly the same optimization automatically.
It can see that the value hasn't changed.)
If you define this, it means your keyboard is actually probable using the
brain-dammaged probe routine in syscons, and if the keyboard is NOT found,
then you don't want syscons to activate itself further.
This makes life sane for those of us who use serial consoles most of the
time and want "the right thing" to happen when we plug a keyboard in.
