capabilities, but should be a good start... Well, sort of.
It can handle W*ndows 256 color BMP file. (Other color depth probably
won't work.) The size of the image must be 320x200 or less. *sigh*
keyboard and video card drivers.
Because of the changes, you are required to update your kernel
configuration file now!
The files in sys/dev/syscons are still i386-specific (but less so than
before), and won't compile for alpha and PC98 yet.
syscons still directly accesses the video card registers here and
there; this will be rectified in the later stages.
performance and reliability a little. There was a condition before
where transmission would stall during periods of heavy traffic
exchange between two hosts. Also set the 'want interrupt' bit in
receive descriptor control words.
+ ECP parallel port chipset FIFO detection
+ DMA+FIFO parallel I/O handled as chipset specific
+ nlpt updated in order to use the above enhanced parallel I/O.
Use 'lptcontrol -e' to use enhanced I/O
+ Various options documented in LINT
+ Full IEEE1284 NIBBLE and BYTE modes support. See ppbus(4) for
an overview of the IEEE1284 standard
+ Detection of PnP parallel devices at boot
+ Read capability added to nlpt driver to get IEEE1284 compliant
printer status with a simple 'cat /dev/lpt0'
+ IEEE1284 peripheral emulation added to BYTE mode. Two computers
may dialog according to IEEE1284 signaling method.
See PERIPH_1284 option and /sys/dev/ppbus/ppi.c
All this code is supposed to provide basic functions for IEEE1284 programming.
ppi.c and nlpt.c may act as examples.
it's already on for the 2XX0) and detect the broken 1040A FIFO. Change
bzero to MEMZERO (portability with **nux). Use memcpy for same reason.
Finally detect QUEUE FULL conditions and return this as an error that
will get cam_periph_error to do it's 'tagged openings now XXX' dance.
devices dynamically. That means,
+ only one /dev/iic or /dev/smb device for each smb/iic bus to access
+ I2C/SMB device address must be given to any ioctl
+ new devices may be plugged and accessed after boot, which was
impossible previously (device addresses were hardcoded into
the kernel)
from sc, vt and sio drivers. Use instead a linker_set to collect them.
Staticize ??cngetc(), ??cnputc(), etc functions in sc and vt drivers.
We must still have siocngetc() and siocnputc() as globals because they
are directly referred to by i386-gdbstub.c :-(

used in device attach routines. At least for attaches at boot time,
actually waiting, or actually failing for malloc(..., M_NOWAIT), are
almost equally unlikely and harmless, but using M_WAITOK interferes
with automatic detection of bogus M_WAITOK's.
kernel as a pseudo-device. The changes were:
- #ifdef DEBUG -> #ifdef VINUMDEBUG
- opt_vinum.h for holding above config variable
- Fixing up a few stray problems where DEBUG wasn't optional.
- config.c -> vinumconfig.c (there's already a config.o)
- Other *.c -> vinum*.c (wasn't strictly necessary, but done in case we end
up with something else conflicting later on and we might have to have yet
more repository copies of files).
- include file paths fixups.. (ie: get them all from the kernel tree
instead of partly from the kernel and partly from /usr/include/machine)
I've spoken with Greg about this.. I hope this doesn't mess him around
too much..
