your feet. The conversion of the "snp" device to a dynamically growing
device driver was done just a few days ago by Brooks Davis! Shame on
me for not finding that PR :(
This is a forced commit of tty_snoop.c to give the submitter proper credit,
as most of the patch submitted is actually exactly the same code (by some
large amount of entropy). Brooks also submitted the change to LINT to
set the example of "snp" usage to not include a number, as that number is
now deprecated, so that is also in this commit.

VFS_AIO option is specified, all aio-related syscalls return ENOSYS.
The aio code is very fragile right now, and is unsuitable for default
inclusion in a production shell box.

the user's config file. Based on an idea/suggestion from Cameron (cg).
Change LINT to build newpcm instead of the old Voxware derived stuff.
That's much more useful in the longer term.
Yes it is almost code freeze, but as the result of many thought, now I
think this should be added before 4.0...
make world check, kernel build check is done.

same object file (atapi-cd.o) as the ata drivers. I'd have called it
wcd.[ch], but there's already one of those in the Attic that we can't
clobber - the good names are taken.
Fix building so that it can be compiled into LINT alongside ata.

NICs. (Finally!) The PCMCIA, ISA and PCI varieties are all supported,
though only the ISA and PCI ones will work on the alpha for now.
PCCARD, ISA and PCI attachments are all provided. Also provided an
ancontrol(8) utility for configuring the NIC, man pages, and updated
pccard.conf.sample. ISA cards are supported in both ISA PnP and hard-wired
mode, although you must configure the kernel explicitly to support the
hardwired mode since you have to know the I/O address and port ahead
of time.
Special thanks to Doug Ambrisko for doing the initial newbus hackery
and getting it to work in infrastructure mode.
USB-EL1202A chipset. Between this and the other two drivers, we should
have support for pretty much every USB ethernet adapter on the market.
The only other USB chip that I know of is the SMC USB97C196, and right
now I don't know of any adapters that use it (including the ones made
by SMC :/ ).
Note that the CATC chip supports a nifty feature: read and write combining.
This allows multiple ethernet packets to be transfered in a single USB
bulk in/out transaction. However I'm again having trouble with large
bulk in transfers like I did with the ADMtek chip, which leads me to
believe that our USB stack needs some work before we can really make
use of this feature. When/if things improve, I intend to revisit the
aue and cue drivers. For now, I've lost enough sanity points.
Note1: the correct interrupt level is invoked correctly for each driver.
For this purpose, drivers request the bus before being able to
call BUS_SETUP_INTR and BUS_TEARDOWN_INTR call is forced by the ppbus
core when drivers release it. Thus, when BUS_SETUP_INTR is called
at ppbus driver level, ppbus checks that the caller owns the
bus and stores the interrupt handler cookie (in order to unregister
it later).
Printing is impossible while plip link is up is still TRUE.
vpo (ZIP driver) and lpt are make in such a way that
using the ZIP and printing concurrently is permitted is also TRUE.
Note2: specific chipset detection is not done by default. PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET
is now needed to force chipset detection. If set, the flags 0x40
still avoid detection at boot.
Port of the pcf(4) driver to the newbus system (was previously directly
connected to the rootbus and attached by a bogus pcf_isa_probe function).
the misleading comments to that effect.
Prune bogus 'at foo?' (smbus, iicbus, ppbus) appendages on things that
they are meaningless for. It was just eye candy and wasn't used by
anything in the tree. The interconnects were defined by the drivers
themselves and auto discovery.
(The new ppbus code may change this if it uses the resource_get_*() calls
to find it's configured children if self discovery isn't possible)
