Declaring it as static is correct, but causes bogus warnings from
gcc -Wredundant-decls. Declaring it as extern works, but causes
correct warnings from gcc -pedantic and is undefined in ANSI C.
We usually declare it as extern. Here it was once really extern,
but botched staticization left it as static here and apparently-
extern in a header file.)

Moved description of sio 16650A flag to the sio section and rewrote the
description. It was in the generic console flags section.
Added undocumented options CPU_UPGRADE_HW_CACHE and WLDEBUG.
This define enables the code to ALWAYS run the 8254 timer thru the 8259 ICU.
It is ON by default.
It depricates the usage of "options SMP_TIMER_NC" in the config file.
1) Make sure that the region mapped by a 4MB page is
properly aligned.
2) Don't turn on the PG_G flag in locore for SMP. I plan
to do that later in startup anyway.
3) Make sure the 2nd processor has PSE enabled, so that 4MB
pages don't hose it.
We don't use PG_G yet on SMP -- there is work to be done to make that
work correctly. It isn't that important anyway...
of the kernel, and also most of the dynamic parts of the kernel. Additionally,
4MB pages will be allocated for display buffers as appropriate (only.)
The 4MB support for SMP isn't complete, but doesn't interfere with operation
either.
1. Add new interface, add_scrn_saver()/remove_scrn_saver(), to declare
loading/unloading of a screen saver. The screen saver calls these
functions to notify syscons of loading/unloading events.
It was possible to load multiple savers each of which will try to
remember the previous saver in a local variable (`old_saver'). The
scheme breaks easily if the user load two savers and unload them in a
wrong order; if the first saver is unloaded first, `old_saver' in the
second saver points to nowhere.
Now only one screen saver is allowed in memory at a time.
Soeren will be looking into this issue again later. syscons is
becoming too heavy. It's time to cut things down, rather than adding
more...
2. Make scrn_timer() to be the primary caller of the screen saver
(*current_saver)(). scintr(), scioctl() and ansi_put() update
`scrn_time_stamp' to indicate that they want to stop the screen saver.
There are three exceptions, however.
One is remove_scrn_saver() which need to stop the current screen saver
if it is running. To guard against scrn_timer() calling the saver during
this operation, `current_saver' is set to `none_saver' early.
The others are sccngetc() and sccncheckc(); they will unblank the
screen too. When the kernel enters DDB (via the hot key or a
break point), the screen saver will be stopped by sccngetc().
However, we have a reentrancy problem here. If the system has been in
the middle of the screen saver...
(The screen saver reentrancy problem has always been with sccnputc()
and sccngetc() in the -current source. So, the new code is doing no
worse, I reckon.)
3. Use `mono_time' rather than `time'.
4. Make set_border() work for EGA and CGA in addition to VGA. Do
nothing for MDA.
Changes to the LKM screen saver modules will follow shortly. YOU NEED
TO RECOMPILE BOTH SCREEN SAVERS AND KERNEL AS OF THESE CHANGES.

Caveat emptor: i cannot test this right now.
This is the long-threatened ISO 9660 CD-ROM bootstrap code.
This work has been sponsored by Plutotech International, Inc (who paid
the initial work), and interface business GmbH (where i did most of
the work). A big thanks also goes to Bruce Evans, for his continuing
help and answering my stupid questions.
The code is basically functioning, with the following caveats:
. Rock Ridge attributes are not yet supported.
. Only SCSI CD-ROMs are supported, since i fail to see any possibility
to determine the drive type using BIOS functions. (Even for hard disks,
this determination is done by a big hack only.)
. El Torito specifies a lot of crap and useless misfeatures, but crucial
things like the ability to figure out the CD TOC have been ``forgotten''.
Thus, if you wanna boot a multisession CD, you need to know at which CD
block your session starts, and need to speciffy it using the @ clause.
. None of the CD-ROM controllers i've seen so far implements the full
El Torito specification at all. Adaptec is probably the closest, but
they miss on non-emulation booting (which would be the most logical
choice for us). Thus, the current code bloats the 7.5 KB boot code
up to 1.44 MB, in order to fake a `floppy' image.
If you wanna use it, specify this file as the boot image on the
command-line of the mksiosfs command (option -b).
Caveat emptor: some versions of the Adaptec BIOS might even fail to
access the CD-ROM at all, using the BIOS functions. I think i've
notice this for ver 1.26, the code has been tested with ver 1.23.
The boot string is as follows:
[@sess-start] [filename] [-flags]
sess-start Extend # where the last session starts, measured in
CD-ROM blocks.
filename As usual, but the input is case-insensitive by now
(since we don't grok RR anyway).
flags As usual, but -C (use CDROM root f/s) is default, so
specifying -C will decactivate this option (which is
probably not what you want :).
A lot of cleanup work is probably required, and some of the files
could/should be merged back to biosboot, perhaps made conditional on
some #ifdef. The malloc implementation that comes with cdboot might
also be useful for kzipboot. (I needed a malloc() since the root dir
ain't fixed in size on a CD.)
I've been testing all this with a 2.2-STABLE as the base for biosboot.
I don't expect too many surprises, although i know the biosboot stuff
has been changed a lot in -current lately. I'm sure Bruce will
comment on all this here anyway. :-)

LINT:
- Added the psm options PSM_HOOKAPM and PSM_RESETAFTERSUSPEND.
- Added comments on the flag 0x20 for syscons.
- Clarified descriptions on the flags (0x02, 0x04) regarding the cursor
shape in syscons.
cursor (CHAR_CURSOR)
1. Reduced the number of calls to set_destructive_cursor(). The
destructive cursor produced noticeable overhead on the system. It was
caused by draw_cursor_image() calling set_destructive_cursor() every
so often.
set_destructive_cursor() absolutely needs to be called when
a) the character code under the cursor has changed either because
the cursor moved or because the screen was updated or the mouse
pointer overlapped the cursor.
b) Or a new font has been loaded,
c) or the video mode has been changed,
d) or the cursor shape has been changed,
e) or the user switched virtual consoles.
2. Turn off the configuration flag CHAR_CURSOR (destructive cursor) in
scattach() if we have a non-VGA card. The destructive cursor works
only for VGA.
3. Removed redundant calls to set_destructive_cursor() in some places.
4. Fixed the "disappearing mouse pointer" problem. The mouse pointer
looked hidden under the destructive cursor when it overlaped the cursor.
A slightly different version of the patch was reviewd and OKed by
sos and ache.
If the configuration option PSM_HOOKAPM is defined and the APM device
is available, the psm driver will issue the ENABLE command to the
pointing device at the resume APM event if the device was open when
the system went into suspended mode. If the option
PSM_RESETAFTERSUSPEND is specified in addition to PSM_HOOKAPM, the
driver will try to reset the pointing device before sending the
ENABLE command.
Built-in PS/2-type pointing devices in some laptops (all the reports I
heard were about Toshiba models) sometimes don't work immediately
after the system is resumed. The device MAY become available after a
while. The system may exhibit the same symptom in other OS's too
(no, FreeBSD is not the only OS that is suffering :-).
I don't know the correct way of solving this yet, but it's been
reported that issuing the ENABLE command after resumption wakes up the
pointing device.
Without PSM_HOOKAPM, the psm driver behaves in the same way as before.
Problem reported in the bsd-nomads mailing list in Japan.

When profiling, put -malign-functions=4 in CFLAGS instead of in PROF.
This fixes the histogram counts for profiling support functions. It

Add a new configuration flag, KBD_NORESET (0x20) to tell scprobe() not
to reset the keyboard.
IBM ThinkPad 535 has the `Fn' key with which the user can perform
certain functions in conjunction with other keys. For example, `Fn' +
PageUP/PageDOWN adjust speaker volume, `Fn' + Home/End change
brightness of LCD screen. It can also be used to suspend the system.
It appears that these functions are implemented at the keyboard level
or the keyboard controller level and totally independent from BIOS or
OS. But, if the keyboard is reset (as is done in scprobe()), they
become unavailable. (There are other laptops which have similar
functions associated with the `Fn' key. But, they aren't affected by
keyboard reset.)
ThinkPad 535 doesn't have switches or buttons to adjust brightness and
volume, or to put the system into the suspend mode. Therefore, it is
essential to preserve these `Fn' key functions in FreeBSD. The new
flag make scprobe() skip keyboard reset.
If this flag is not set, scprobe() behaves in the same say as before.
(If we only knew a way to detect ThinkPad 535, we could skip keyboard
reset automatically, but...)

the XENIX version is packed, and two bytes smaller than ours. So, define
the structure, and have it packed. I used the __attribte__((packed))
modifier for this; I could also have surrounded the struct definition with
#pragma pack(2) -- but that would have meant making ibcs2_timeb's definition
outside the function. This may need to be revisited if we ever want to
compile with a compiler other than gcc. (I also used 'unsigned long'
instead of 'time_t' because I am writing to match an external specification
-- and the definition of time_t could change.)

strictly temporary code present that isn't exactly pretty.
This is part of a larger change that has run into some bumps, this part is

The kernel with USERCONFIG_BOOT and VISUAL_USERCONFIG option presents
the user the kernel configuration menu upon boot.
The user can navigate the menu with cursor keys. I think it would be
nice if the user can navigate and select a menu item with regular keys
as well, so that the user who is using a serial console which is not
so capable of esc sequences still can choose a menu item.
With the following patch we can select an item by typing an item
number, 1, 2, or 3, or mnemonic `s' to skip UserConfig, 'v' to enter
the visual mode, and `c' to start the CLI mode. `p', `u', `n', and `d'

In this patch, scinit() is split into two parts; the first part is
now called scvidprobe() which will detect the presence of video card
at the CGA or MONO buffer address and returns TRUE if found. It is
called during sccnprobe() and scprobe(). Both will fail if no video
card is found.
The second part, whose name stays the same as before, scinit(), is
called from sccninit() and scattach() to complete initialization of
the found video card.
The keyboard probe code is moved from scprobe() to sckbdprobe();
scprobe() now calls scvidprobe() and sckbdprobe() to carry out device
probe. (This is rather a cosmetic change, but it sure makes the code
look better organized.)
