udev_t in the kernel but still called dev_t in userland.
Provide functions to manipulate both types:
major() umajor()
minor() uminor()
makedev() umakedev()
dev2udev() udev2dev()
For now they're functions, they will become in-line functions
after one of the next two steps in this process.
Return major/minor/makedev to macro-hood for userland.
Register a name in cdevsw[] for the "filedescriptor" driver.
In the kernel the udev_t appears in places where we have the
major/minor number combination, (ie: a potential device: we
may not have the driver nor the device), like in inodes, vattr,
cdevsw registration and so on, whereas the dev_t appears where
we carry around a reference to a actual device.
In the future the cdevsw and the aliased-from vnode will be hung
directly from the dev_t, along with up to two softc pointers for
the device driver and a few houskeeping bits. This will essentially
replace the current "alias" check code (same buck, bigger bang).
A little stunt has been provided to try to catch places where the
wrong type is being used (dev_t vs udev_t), if you see something
not working, #undef DEVT_FASCIST in kern/kern_conf.c and see if
it makes a difference. If it does, please try to track it down
(many hands make light work) or at least try to reproduce it
as simply as possible, and describe how to do that.
Without DEVT_FASCIST I belive this patch is a no-op.
Stylistic/posixoid comments about the userland view of the <sys/*.h>
files welcome now, from userland they now contain the end result.
Next planned step: make all dev_t's refer to the same devsw[] which
means convert BLK's to CHR's at the perimeter of the vnodes and
other places where they enter the game (bootdev, mknod, sysctl).
bad math: it does not handle page-boundary conditions, and will not
end up mapping all of the requested addresses. This will cause a panic:
page fault during probe on some systems. I have a machine that will
panic every time (when using the dpt driver) on kernel probe when there
are 5 drives installed. When there are 4 drives, it is fine.
Fix is to always allocate/deallocate an extra page.
There is also a bonus splx() fix on an early error return.

some aha 1542B cards will return 0x7f for the unimplemented GEOMETRY
register.
This is a good 3.2 candidate.

grab them. I've exported the match function since it could be used from
the ata-all.c code replacing ata_pcimatch() - but I have not touched the
ata code. I'd like to catch a few more devices this way, including USB
and other bridges etc.

It only affects multi-floppy systems anyway.

.. to 2.2.x and 3.x if people think it's worth it. Driver writers can do
this if it's not defined. (The reason for this is that I'm trying to
progressively eliminate use of linker_sets where it hurts modularity and
runtime load capability, and these DATA_SET's keep getting in the way.)
although this is pretty trivial. devclass_get_softc() is a tad more
expensive than the old com_addr() implementation. If Bruce is really
worried about the cost of this, it could always be changed so that the
softc pointer is stored in a local array again.
I'm not too happy about the result either, but at least it has less
chance of backfiring.
This particular feature could be called "a mess" without offending
anybody.
