Introduce d_version field in struct cdevsw, this must always be
initialized to D_VERSION.
Flip sense of D_NOGIANT flag to D_NEEDGIANT, this involves removing
four D_NOGIANT flags and adding 145 D_NEEDGIANT flags.
Add missing D_TTY flags to various drivers.
Complete asserts that dev_t's passed to ttyread(), ttywrite(),
ttypoll() and ttykqwrite() have (d_flags & D_TTY) and a struct tty
pointer.
Make ttyread(), ttywrite(), ttypoll() and ttykqwrite() the default
cdevsw methods for D_TTY drivers and remove the explicit initializations
in various drivers cdevsw structures.
This commit adds a couple of functions for pseudodrivers to use for
implementing cloning in a manner we will be able to lock down (shortly).
Basically what happens is that pseudo drivers get a way to ask for
"give me the dev_t with this unit number" or alternatively "give
me a dev_t with the lowest guaranteed free unit number" (there is
unfortunately a lot of non-POLA in the exact numeric value of this
number, just live with it for now)
Managing the unit number space this way removes the need to use
rman(9) to do so in the drivers this greatly simplifies the code in
the drivers because even using rman(9) they still needed to manage
their dev_t's anyway.
I have taken the if_tun, if_tap, snp and nmdm drivers through the
mill, partly because they (ab)used makedev(), but mostly because
together they represent three different problems for device-cloning:
if_tun and snp is the plain case: just give me a device.
if_tap has two kinds of devices, with a flag for device type.
nmdm has paired devices (ala pty) can you can clone either of them.
Free approx 86 major numbers with a mostly automatically generated patch.
A number of strategic drivers have been left behind by caution, and a few
because they still (ab)use their major number.
the corresponding manpage has been committed.
The rest of "vlan" words, which are refering
to the technology itself, should be capitalized.

This removes the packet header in certain cases which later on
will give panic. Clarify what the atm_intr expects in the comment
and de-obscurify the code a little bit by replacing the portability
macros with the BSD names. The code isn't maintained externally anymore
so there's no point in keeping the extra level of obscurity.
- allow for ifp->if_ioctl being NULL, as the rest of ifioctl() does;
- give the interface driver a chance to report a error to the caller;
- don't forget to update ifp->if_lastchange upon successful modification
of interface operation parameters.

Sorry guys, I need to find a better way to force reviews.

Instead of creating a mutex that we msleep on but don't actually lock when
doing the corresponding wakeup(), in the kthread, lock the mutex associated
with our taskqueue and msleep while the queue is empty. Assert that the
queue is locked when the callback function is called to wake the kthread.
but the biggest issue is that there are situatons when
${.OBJDIR} == ${.SRCDIR}, and in those situations the previous version
would happily remove all your /usr/src while it was cleaning out the objects.
Not that *you* would be happy about it... Thanks to bde for immediately
noticing this serious possibility.
More improvements will be made to this target, but I wanted to commit this
safer version right now, before anyone lost their /usr/src due to it.
