3c905B, the RX and TX reset commands also reset the cyclone chip's internal
PHY, which causes it to restart its autonegotiation session. This takes a
second or two to complete, which makes the interface seem to stop responding
for a few seconds every time you do something that reinitializes it.
Issuing the RX and TX resets on the older 3c905 boomerang adapters doesn't
cause any delay because the boomerang chip requires an external PHY.
This should fix the problem where people doing network installs via 3c905B
cards experience a delay after the interface is first initialized, among
other things.

Added ioctl TVTUNER_GETCHANSET to discover which regions the bktr driver
supports. Submitted by Vsevolod Lobko <seva@alex-ua.com>
Added BT848_GPIO_SET_EN,BT848_GPIO_SET_DATA (and GETs) to allow user land
control of the GPIO pins. This allows a Radio module on the GPIO port
to be controlled. Submitted by Vsevolod Lobko <seva@alex-ua.com>
The kernel option BKTR_GPIO_ACCESS must be used to enable the GPIO ioctls.

each time rather than making up a new one.
Increase the authname/authkey max sizes to 100 characters.
Allow ``authkey'' specifications beginning with ``!''.
When a challenge is received, the text following the
``!'' is executed as a program (expanding stuff in the same
way that ``sh'' and ``!bg'' do). The program is passed the
peer name, peer challenge and local ``authname'' on standard
input and is expected to output the name/key combination that
should be used to build the CHAP response.
This provides support for Secure ID cards (guess what I was
given at work recently!) using CHAP.
Examples will follow.

automatically start another daemon. Add a pid for the daemon, so that
an overtaken daemon will discover that it's no longer in favour, and
will crawl into a corner and die.

Modify description of start command to include 'start' with no
parameters, which reads the config from all drives found on the
system.
the wrong module can cause confusion, including loading both versions
(which conflict with each other) and incorrect ioctls, which cause
unintelligible error messages.
Extend 'start' command: if used without any parameters, vinum scans
all disks known to devstat for vinum drives and reads their
configuration.
incorrect; returning NULL here means that the dispatcher won't send any
response back to the caller, which means the caller will sit there waiting
until it times out. I don't know how this ever worked before. The effect
is that using 'ypset foo' to get the local ypbind to change servers would
work, but would sit there hanging for a long time for no reason.
Under certain conditions (possibly associated with heavy load), ypserv will
fork() child processes that don't exit like they're supposed to. I think
this is because of some suspect logic in the ypproc_all procedure. I updated
it to use what I hope is a more bulletproof approach.
Also tweaked yp_svc_run() a little so that the 'are we a child?' test happens
at every pass through the for(;;) loop, not just immediately after returning
from svc_getreqset2().
