values for syncronous negotiation. The 284x series adaptors can now be
supported without the Bios being enabled. If you disable the Bios on the
274x series adaptors, all configuration parameters revert to the default
since there is no way to retrieve them.
You can now sling 14 devices off of a 274xT. In the process of adding
twin channel support, I removed all evident restrictions on supporting
Wide channeled devices, but I do not have a Wide controller to test them
on.
aic7770_seq.h, the pre-compiled header, is no longer needed since config

- /sys/i386/i386/swapgeneric.c is just plain broke. But fear not, for I
have unbroken it. One thing that swapgeneric.c does is walk through the
list of configured devices searching for a boot device. The only easy
way to accomplish this in 2.0 is to use Garret Wollman's kern_devconf
stuff. *BUT*, the head of the kern_devconf linked list (dc_list) is declared
static in /sys/kern/kern_devconf.c. This means that swapgeneric.c can't
see it at link time. I had to remove the 'static' keyword to get around
this little problem. I hope this doesn't break anything anywhere.
*Furthermore,* there's a small matter of making the call to setconf()
in swapgeneric.c disappear when 'config kernel swap generic' isn't used.
You could change /sbin/config to create a dummy setconf() function in
swapkernel.c, but that seems messy somehow. (It's also someting of an
'it isn't broken, why are you fixing it' situation.) My solution was to
do what the NetBSD people did and put an #ifdef GENERIC around the call
to setconf(). If your kernel is called GENERIC or you define 'options
GENERIC,' then you can use 'config kernel swap generic' and it'll work.
That aside, the upshot is that: a) swapgeneric.c actually works, and
and b) the -a boot flag now works as well. If you boot with -a, as in
"Boot: wd(0,a)/kernel -a" you will be presented with a 'root device?'
prompt after the autoconfig phase, at which point you can specify what
device you want mounted as root. Regrettably, you can't specify an NFS
filesystem. Yet. Three files are affected: /sys/i386/i386/swapgeneric.c,
/sys/i386/i386/autoconf.c and /sys/kern/kern_devconf.c.

- /sys/i386/isa/if_ed.c doesn't quite know how to deal with SMC EtherEZ
ethernet cards. The EtherEZ looks just like the Elite Ultra, except it
has only 8K of shared memory. The only way to have it properly detected
is to zero and test a few bytes of memory just about the first 8K region.
If it clears properly, it's an Elite Ultra, otherwise it's an EtherEZ.
I've also got an EtherEZ patch for netboot (Makefile, ether.c and ether.h).
- /sys/i386/isa/syscons.c wraps at the next to the last column rather than
the last column, like it should. You don't really notice this unless you
use certain programs that write all the way out to, say, the 80th column,
like VMSmail. Along with a one-line fix for this are some changes to
implement a non-blinking cursor. Put 'options "NOBLINK_CURSOR"' in your
config file and give it a try. :)

This is new version of Seagate ST01/02, Future Domain TMC-885, TMC-950
SCSI driver for FreeBSD. I started from the 2.0R version and mostly
rewrote it. New features are:
1) New probe algorithm. Old driver read the BIOS region of the adapter
memory and find the copyright string. The problem was in the BIOS itself:
it conflicted with IDE disks. The solution was to unplug it and
make the probe algorithm to work without it.
2) Proper timeout handling in numerous places where the driver
polls waiting for some event.
3) Assembler flagments added in critical places, mostly for data transfer
to of from the target. It was possible to make it faster,
but at the price of decreasing reliability.
4) Target-dependent delays when waiting for REQ deassert event.
Some devices seem to be slower (CD-ROMS, some tape drives),
and some seem to be too fast (disks). The driver tests the REQ
deassert timeout for each target and then uses it for polling.
5) Device flags added for SCSI parity control and sense request
priority control.
6) Generic cleanup, after which the driver became much more readable
(at least by me:).
7) Target data parity error logging is limited to avoid log file overflow.
8) Manual page added.

The files in this directory are modified version of "biosboot". The
only difference is in that they perform their I/O via a serial port,
so their preferrable usage is to form bootblocks for systems where the
kernel happens to have an "options COMCONSOLE". Most of the code is
actually shared with "biosboot", and make will not (and should not)

Fudge the interrupt nesting level across context switches and in

gets counted as interrupt time, the work for voluntary context

time gets counted as idle time.
Remove obsolete support (commented out and otherwise) for pcb_iml.
Load curpcb just before curproc instead of just after so that
curpcb is always valid if curproc is. A few more changes like
this may fix tracing through context switches.

ICRNL doesn't apply to cngetc(). cnputc() unconditionally does the
equivalent of ONLCR; perhaps cngetc() should unconditionally do the
equivalent of ICRNL. Ddb must be checking for CR. Userconfig only
checks for NL. Userconfig works with syscons because pccngetc()
does the conversion. This is probably the wrong place to do it.

MTU of 16384 is now enforced for ppp.
1. The pageout daemon used to block under certain
circumstances, and we needed to add new functionality
that would cause the pageout daemon to block more often.
Now, the pageout daemon mostly just gets rid of pages
and kills processes when the system is out of swap.
The swapping, rss limiting and object cache trimming
have been folded into a new daemon called "vmdaemon".
This new daemon does things that need to be done for
the VM system, but can block. For example, if the
vmdaemon blocks for memory, the pageout daemon
can take care of it. If the pageout daemon had
blocked for memory, it was difficult to handle
the situation correctly (and in some cases, was
impossible).
2. The collapse problem has now been entirely fixed.
It now appears to be impossible to accumulate unnecessary
vm objects. The object collapsing now occurs when ref counts
drop to one (where it is more likely to be more simple anyway
because less pages would be out on disk.) The original
fixes were incomplete in that pathological circumstances
could still be contrived to cause uncontrolled growth
of swap. Also, the old code still, under steady state
conditions, used more swap space than necessary. When
using the new code, users will generally notice a
significant decrease in swap space usage, and theoretically,
the system should be leaving fewer unused pages around
competing for memory.
