Subject: syscons-1.3
Date: Sat, 29 Jan 94 23:33:50 MET
But here is the (hopefully) final syscons-1.3....
....
I've changed sgetc so it works as the pccons parallel
(it now uses a scgetc internally).
[
There were a couple changes that Bruce Evans sent me that were applied
to this version along with some changes that S'ren didn't incorporate
into the final version. There will be only minor changes if anything
from this version to his final release.

netmask or impmask.
2) Fixes from Bruce:
o Changed name of schedsoftcom() to setsofttty() to match
setsoftclock()
o Bool_t isn't used.
o tx_fifo_size is 1 for chips without fifos, 16 for 16550's, to
help to output more efficiently for 16550's (LSR_TXRDY means
that the fifo is empty, not that it has space for one char).
o Changed name of softsio1() to siopoll() and merged compoll()
into siopoll().
o The probe forgot to clear com_mcr after it failed. This is
harmful for 4 single serial ports on 2 interrupts. It makes
partial misconfigurations worse.
o Don't bother initializing static variables that are 0 (bidir
stuff).
o Only initialize t_oflag to TTYDEF_OFLAG if unit == COMCONSOLE,
not if COMCONSOLE is defined.
o Don't call siointr() from comparam() if there is no output in
progress. For the call from sioopen(), there's no output in
progress, and siointr() often saw silo overflows for stale
input because it was called before sioopen() discarded the
input.
o Let ttselect() do the work for select(), so that the fixes for
ttselect() don't have to be duplicated in zillions of drivers.
Yes, I know that IFADDR ioctl is supposed to be deprecated... Note
that the patch was modified by me to fit better into the driver. -DG

While porting CAP to 386bsd/pk0.2.4 and now to FreeBSD Release 1.0
I found a couple of bugs associated with the packet filter. Here
are the fixes. I'm posting them here because they apply to
FreeBSD and 386bsd/pk0.2.4 and possibly to other *BSD.
The first occurs when using the packet filter to write raw
ethernet packets. The header consisting of the sender and
destination addresses and the protocol is removed and later
added back on, but with the byte order of the protocol reversed.
The fix ensures that the byte order in the protocol field is
swapped when it is removed.
The second fix ensures that SIOCGIFADDR works for BPF as claimed
in the man pages, by adding it to the ed driver. Similar fixes
will be needed for other ethernet drivers.

file override to disable fifo on 16550s:
I bought a board with two 16550's, but one of those ports has a mouse
on it. The sio driver always enables the fifo, which is a bad thing
for mice and X. The mouse is jerky and hard to use. The simple thing
is be to treat one of the ports as a non-fifo'ed UART, and I use the
flags option in my config file.
So, my config file has:
device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 flags 0x2 vector siointr
device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 vector siointr
(patch deleted)
0) FreeBSD additional include files additions
1) Rod's arpacom changes
2) Function type and return code cleanup, and all functions have correct
casting to the correct data types
3) Bugfix where driver would not function due to missing structure not
given a value.
4) General cleanup. (Theo did a lot already, I just did some more)
Choose older MULTIPORT version, because lastest bde version
not worked.
Don't force HUPCL for bidirectional case.
From bde:
Use bit (1 << (16 + 4)) in schedsoftcom() to avoid clash with
non-serial h/w on IRQ4.
Allow FIFO_TRIGGER in config.
Clear com->mcr_image when clearing mcr for init of 4port. The
usual value MCR_IENABLE should have broken 4ports unless
something happened to clear it later.
Turn off interrupts as well as DTR after an error waiting for
carrier (bidir dialin case).
Drain fifo more carefully.
Don't hang up if debugging.
Rearrange siointr() -> siointr1() for multiport case for speed,
lower latency and clarity.
Use suser() to check perms.
Provide missing splx() after failed perms checks.
c_ispeed == 0 means c_ispeed = c_ospeed (POSIX).
Set parameters (except speed) for c_ospeed == 0 as well as
hanging up.
Better initialization for console (fifo stuff...).
Misc. cleanups.
Fix dead hang if modem power is off.

NB: -Wtraditional will henceforth be forgotten. This editing pass was
primarily intended to detect any constructions where the old code might
have been relying on traditional C semantics or syntax. These were all
fixed, and the result of fixing some of them means that -Wall is now a

3) Add DELAY after writing to com_ier for fifo drain into probe.

Changes between EPSILON and RELEASE of FreeBSD have again caused
the kernel to not see my floppy disk drives. I don't know what happened,
'cause I don't see any changes to fd.c, but here is an old fix that
I have applied to the probe routine which will solve the problem (at
least for me). Since this is a rather brute-force solution - I understand
if you want to ignore it...

Okay, I tracked down the d*mn thing that is causing the memcpy to be
emmitted by gcc2. In the following patch is a fix to eliminate the
one place that was causing gcc to do the memcpy in function ie_readframe
for the ie_recv_frame_desc rfd = *(ie->rframes[num]) structure copy.
I also fixed the code so that the NS (XNS) support would compile with
out error and removed the cruft #define ns_* stuff from the softc
structures (I did this a while back for all the other either drivers)
Removed the $Log$ and all of the old log stuff, that is all kept in
the cvs tree, no need to duplicate it in the file... I'll copy it
into my commit message so that it is all retained, except the
revision numbers are going to get screwed up.
It now compiles cleanly under my LINT kernel...

* Revision 1.12 93/03/15 17:45:39 wollman
* Changed filtering logic dramatically to avoid the unnecessary copyin
* for BPF or multicast routing when the packet is not for us. (We
* have to run in promiscuous mode in this case.) We still need to
* deal with the problem of allocating one mbuf per receive buffer;
* we should be able to get away with a single mbuf for all reasonable
* incoming packets, and using an mbuf cluster will help avoid unnecessary
* copying of data.
*
* Revision 1.11 93/01/30 20:23:15 wollman
* Fiddled with reset code to hopefully make it work better when the
* watchdog timer expires. Question: why does it make a difference that
* we do the same thing through ieioctl() as we were doing before. The
* old code, when iereset() was called, the receive unit would completely
* die. But, a cycle of ifconfig ie0 down ; ifconfig ie0 up' would bring
* things back to normal. So, we try to mimic that now. Grrr...
*
* Revision 1.10 93/01/29 17:26:50 wollman
* Finally fixed multicast routing/BPF mb_map full problem!!!!
* It turned out that, when we received a packet not for us, we
* would just return from ie_readframe(), *WITHOUT* freeing the
* mbuf that the packet was in. So, when running in promiscuous
* mode (i.e., multicast routing or BPF without -p), we would have
* (on our extremely busy subnet 4) a memory leak of epic proportions.
*
* We now hold on to a single mbuf chain allocated in this way,
* and the next time a packet is read, we free it. Also, the
* next time a packet is transmitted, we free it. This way,
* we never lose more than 6 mbufs total (and on average more like
* 3).
*
* Revision 1.9 93/01/23 14:22:21 wollman
* Added some StarLAN Fiber modifications from L. Jonas Olsson.
*
* Revision 1.8 93/01/23 14:02:34 wollman

* Revision 1.7 92/11/21 17:51:59 wollman
* Added StarLAN Fiber version point to my driver.
*
* Revision 1.6 92/11/20 18:21:45 wollman
* Fixed documentation, made out-of-mbuf condition an error.
*
* Revision 1.5 92/11/20 18:14:02 wollman
* Move change of ethertype to host byte order so that it's after
* bpf_mtap. Hopefully, this will allow us to listen to incoming
* IP packets.
*
* Revision 1.4 92/11/20 18:11:00 wollman
* Added code to drop packets when we run out of mbufs rather than
* panicking. This should alleviate the problems observed when using tcpdump.
*
* Revision 1.3 92/11/14 14:12:40 wollman
* Added BPF support code.
*
* Revision 1.2 92/11/14 13:30:26 wollman
* Added RCS keywords
*
* patch from vak@zebub.msk.su (Serge V.Vakulenko) to work around
* a hardware bug in cheap WD clone boards where the PROM checksum

* Added software NIC reset in NE probe to work around a problem
* with some NE boards where the 8390 doesn't reset properly on
* power-up. Remove initialization of IMR/ISR in the NE probe
* because this is inherent in the reset.
* added no multi-buffer override for 3c503
*
* Revision 2.1 93/09/29 12:32:12 davidg
* changed multi-buffer count for 16bit 3c503's from 5 to 2 after

I think removing FINDWORK would make things clearer.
Nothing much is going to start work on the next item. However, it is
pointless to continue processing the queue for the same unready drive.
Aborting all reads and trying harder to perform all writes would be
better.

Fixed.
From: bde@kralizec.zeta.org.au (Bruce Evans)
Date: Thu, 16 Sep 93 22:56:01 +1000
The fd driver reported the wrong cylinder/head/sector numbers after an
error (ST3 is only valid after a sense-drive command), and didn't report
fs block numbers (diskerr was not used).
There was an old problem with writes to block fd devices. Try this:
1. write protect floppy in fd0.
2. tar cf /dev/fd0a /dev/null. Repeat a few times. Later writes tend to
terminate earlier.
3. un-write protect floppy.
4. repeat step 2. The writes tend to return 0, 2048, 4096, ... and then
succeed.
This was caused by a bug in vfs__bios.c. (The bug is fixed in NetBSD's
vfs_bio.c.) fd.c sets bp->b_resid to nonzero after an error. vfs__bios.c
was not initializing bp->b_resid. This causes some writes to terminate
early (e.g., writes to block devices; see spec_write()).
Related funnies:
1. Nothing tries to write the residual bytes.
2. The wd driver sets bp->b_resid to 0 after an error, so there's no
way anything else could write the residual bytes.
3. I use the block fd device for tar because the raw device seemed to
have more bugs long ago, and because it ought to be able to handle
buffering more transparently (I don't want to have to know the
device size). But spec_write() always uses the size BLKDEV_IOSIZE
== 2048 which is too small. For disks it should use the size of
one track (rounded down to meet the next track boundary or the i/o
size). Here it would help if the DIOCGPART ioctl worked. But
DIOCGPART is not implemented for floppies, and the disk size is
ignored except for partitions of type FS_BSDFFS.

message for Bruces changes:
>From: bde@kralizec.zeta.org.au (Bruce Evans)
>Subject: fixes for fd driver
I think I've fixed some bugs in the 0.2.4 fd driver.
1. The main cause of hangs was that there was no timeout for seeks. So
attempting i/o with no floppy in the drive hung iff a seek was required.
2. Opens of unattached drives were allowed. The kernel usually paniced
soon after due to a bad pointer.
3. Some timeout functions ran at splclock() instead of splbio(). This
may not have mattered.
4. The state machine was left in a funny state after a timeout.
5. Some function headers were new-style.
6. I picked up some code posted the other day to implement label ioctls.
Now `disklabel fd0' works. See a comment for how to modify conf.c.
>Subject: Bad bug in kbdtables.h [FreeBSD]
I found a bug in /sys/i386/isa/kbdtables.h which contain the
different keyboard layouts for syscons. This regards all tables exept
the Danish and US. When compiling the kernel with any other keymapping
than Danish or none at all (US), you get an error that 'key_map' is undefined.
This is because there is a typo in the name of the struct containing
the tables, keymap intead of key_map.
That is because TIOCMGET was broken. Yes...this is known for some time
and no, we (Bruce and me) never posted it. Why? Simply because we choose
to post fixes when we fixed most of the bugs.
Anyway..now that the slip problems are coming, here is a fix for
correct TIOCMGET behaviour.

Note: this should be tested first (Rich?). Tested by rgrimes
1) fixed 3c503 lock-up if the thinwire cable was disconnected at boot time
2) 8013EBT boards now work (quite well!) in 16bit/16k mode
3) ED_NO_DOUBLE_BUFFERING flag now works
4) slightly higer performance (about 3%) with 16bit WD/SMC boards
5) support for WD8013WC (10BaseT) boards
