This includes the following changes:
- Support for poking ARP entries into the local table is now built
in, so the arptab.c module I hacked together is no longer needed.
- rarp_process() and rarp_reply() now accept a len argument which is
passed down from rarp_loop() which tells rarp_reply() exactly how
long the original RARP frame was. (Usually, it's 60 bytes, which is
the minimum.) Previously, the length was calculated using the sum
of sizeof(struct ether_header) + sizeof(struct ether_arp) (plus the
ethernet frame header, I think). The result was a total packet
length of 42 bytes. Now, rarp_reply() sends out packets that are
the same size as those it recieves (60 bytes). This agrees with the
behavior of rarpd on SunOS (as observed with tcpdump). The unused
extra bytes are zeroed.
the races in my previous commits here, and fix some other problems with
syslogd as well.
- if the child process exited early (eg: could not bind to the socket),
the boot process would hang for 30 seconds. The parent was not noticing
that the child had exited. (my fault)
- when writing to tty devices, instead of treating them like files that
need \r\n instead of \n, actually use ttymsg() which has specific code
intended to write to potentially blocking ttys safely. I had a machine
lock up last night because /dev/console on a serial port got flow control
blocked. Setting comcontrol drainwait fixed everything but syslogd which
was going into a spin trying to write to the console and completely
ignoreing everything else.
- fix a couple of nonsensical bits of code while here.. eg: wait3 takes
a pointer to an int. There is no sense in declaring it as 'union wait',
then casting the pointer to (int *), then forgetting about it.
Garbage in `eacces' caused the wrong errno to be set for non-EACCES errors.
Garbage in `etxtbsy' caused a semi-random retry strategy for ETXTBSY errors.
Found by: NIST-PCTS. gcc -Wall reported the problem, but -Wall is not
enabled for libc.
substantially increasing buffer space. Specifically, we double
the number of buffers, but allocate only half the amount of memory
per buffer. Note that VDIR files aren't cached unless instantiated
in a buffer. This will significantly improve caching.
We've already got it in libc, but both libraries are incompatible
wrt. their header files and internal data structures. This
incompatibility caused the expr(1) on the fixit floppy to mysteriously
dump core for the colon operator.
Strong 2.2 candidate, since it fixes the usage of MAKEDEV on the fixit
floppy. I'd like to get it reviewed by somebody else though.

Add printing of PCI header type register. (This makes the output
80 columns wide. Ughh. I'm looking for a better way to put the
information on one line ...)
do reset it from the QOUTCNT register inside a pause/unpause. This now happens
once per command complete interrupt in the paging case (one interrupt can be
for multiple completed commands). I may introduce a counter and do a lazy
update in the future, similar to what is done with the QINCNT.
Enhance the QUEUE FULL condition handling so that the number of openings will
be reduced. This has become more important now that the driver is faster.
This code really belongs in the gerneric SCSI layer, as will be the case once
3.0 gets the code from the 'SCSI' branch.
Add some #if 0'd out trace code I've been using to help debug sequencer
problems.
Fix the SCB paging problem that I was seeing. This was only on my 7850
controller and stems from the fact that its QINFIFO can only handle 3bit
SCB identifiers. This means that you can only have 8 transactions open at
a time with the current paging scheme to these controllers. The code added
to enforce this is generic in that it tests for the number of relevent bits
that the QINFIFO can store and adjusts the max accordingly. It may be possible
to come up with a scheme that allows for more than 8 commands at a time, but
I don't know that it is worth the effort simply to fix a low end card. The
aic7880 still can do 255.
This problem may be related to what Andrey was seeing since I don't have n
aic7770 rev E chip here to test on, but as soon as someone probes one of these
cards with this new code, the dmesg output will tell the whole story.
aic7xxx cards failing on certain motherboards, reverse the logic used to
control this feature. AHC_FORCE_PIO is replaced with AHC_ALLOW_MEMIO.
GENERIC no longer needs to specify the AHC_FORCE_PIO option since this is
the default.
initial selection when entering the status phase. This is the same assertion
we use for all the other data transfer phases.
Hopefully fix the hangs in the mesgin and mesgout phases that I introduced
last week during some code cleanup. I need to get some of these 12MB/s
drives so I can reproduce these hangs here...
Add a pause disable in the SCB paging case around our manipulation of the
QOUTQCNT variable. This is simply extra sanity.
Set LASTPHASE to P_BUSFREE once we see a busfree so that the kernel driver can
differentiate this from a data out phase.
user supplies a bad address, because they push a lot of stuff that the
fault handler doesn't know about onto the stack. This has been broken
for more than half a year despite being tested for almost half a year
in -current.
duplicate ip address 204.162.228.7! sent from ethernet address: 08:00:20:09:7b:1d
changed to
arp: 08:00:20:09:7b:1d is using my IP address 204.162.228.7!
and
arp info overwritten for 204.162.228.2 by 08:00:20:09:7b:1d
changed to
arp: 204.162.228.2 moved from 08:00:20:07:b6:a0 to 08:00:20:09:7b:1d
I think the new wordings are more clear and could save some support
questions.
