in the putc() method. Likewise, in the getc() method, don't check for
received characters with an interval defined in terms of the baudrate.
In both cases it works equally well to implement a fixed delay. More
importantly, it avoids calculating a delay that's roughly 1/10th the
time it takes to send/receive a character. The calculation is costly
and happens for every character sent or received, affecting low-level
console or debug port performance significantly. Secondly, when the
RCLK is not available or unreliable, the delays could disrupt normal
operation.
The fixed delay is 1/10th the time it takes to send a character at
230400 bps.
it obtained through the uart_class structure. This allows us
to declare the uart_class structure as weak and as such allows
us to reference it even when it's not compiled-in.
It also allows is to get the uart_ops structure by name, which
makes it possible to implement the dt tag handling in uart_getenv().
The side-effect of all this is that we're using the uart_class
structure more consistently which means that we now also have
access to the size of the bus space block needed by the hardware
when we map the bus space, eliminating any hardcoding.
that the driver clock is identical to the processor or bus clock.
This is the case for the PowerQUICC processor. When the clock is
high enough, overflows happen in the calculation of the time it
takes to send 1/10 of a character, used in delay loops. Fix the
overflows so as to fix bugs in the delay loops that can cause either
insufficient delays or excessive delays.
system devices (i.e. console, debug port or keyboard), don't stop
after the first match. Find them all and keep track of the last.
The reason for this change is that the low-level console is always
added to the list of system devices first, with other devices added
later. Since new devices are added to the list at the head, we have
the console always at the end. When a debug port is using the same
UART as the console, we would previously mark the "newbus" UART as
a debug port instead of as a console. This would later result in a
panic because no "newbus" device was associated with the console.
By matching all possible system devices we would mark the "newbus"
UART as a console and not as a debug port.
While it is arguably better to be able to mark a "newbus" UART as
both console and debug port, this fix is lightweight and allows
a single UART to be used as the console as well as a debug port
with only the aesthetic bug of not telling the user about it also
being a debug port.
Now that we match all possible system devices, update the rclk of
the system devices with the rclk that was obtained through the
bus attachment. It is generally true that clock information is
more reliable when obtained from the parent bus than by means of
some hardcoded or assumed value used early in the boot. This by
virtue of having more context information.

that can be used to check whether receive data is ready, i.e. whether
the subsequent call of uart_poll() should return a char, and unlike
uart_poll() doesn't actually receive data.
- Remove the device-specific implementations of uart_poll() and implement
uart_poll() in terms of uart_getc() and the newly added uart_rxready()
in order to minimize code duplication.
- In sunkbd(4) take advantage of uart_rxready() and use it to implement
the polled mode part of sunkbd_check() so we don't need to buffer a
potentially read char in the softc.
- Fix some mis-indentation in sunkbd_read_char().

as we have no use for that info. Instead let this function return the
keyboard ID and verify at its invocation in sunkbd_configure() that we're
talking to a Sun type 4/5/6 keyboard, i.e. a keyboard supported by this
driver.
- Add an option SUNKBD_EMULATE_ATKBD whose code is based on the respective
code in ukbd(4) and like UKBD_EMULATE_ATSCANCODE causes this driver to
emit AT keyboard/KB_101 compatible scan codes in K_RAW mode as assumed by
kbdmux(4). Unlike UKBD_EMULATE_ATSCANCODE, SUNKBD_EMULATE_ATKBD also
triggers the use of AT keyboard maps and thus allows to use the map files
in share/syscons/keymaps with this driver at the cost of an additional
translation (in ukbd(4) this just is the way of operation).
- Implement an option SUNKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP, which like the equivalent options
of the other keyboard drivers allows to specify the default in-kernel
keyboard map. For obvious reasons this made to only work when also using
SUNKBD_EMULATE_ATKBD.
- Implement sunkbd_check(), sunkbd_check_char() and sunkbd_clear_state(),
which are also required for interoperability with kbdmux(4).
- Implement K_CODE mode and FreeBSD keypad compose.
- As a minor hack define KBD_DFLT_KEYMAP also in the !SUNKBD_EMULATE_ATKBD
case so we can obtain fkey_tab from <dev/kbd/kbdtables.h> rather than
having to duplicate it and #ifdef some more code.
- Don't use the TX-buffer for writing the two command bytes for setting the
keyboard LEDs as this consequently requires a hardware FIFO that is at
least two bytes in depth, which the NMOS-variant of the Zilog SCCs doesn't
have. Thus use an inlined version of uart_putc() to consecutively write
the command bytes (a cleaner approach would be to do this via the soft
interrupt handler but that variant wouldn't work while in ddb(4)). [1]
- Fix some minor style(9) bugs.

- Split struct ithd up into two pieces. struct intr_event holds the list
of interrupt handlers associated with interrupt sources.
struct intr_thread contains the data relative to an interrupt thread.
Currently we still provide a 1:1 relationship of events to threads
with the exception that events only have an associated thread if there
is at least one threaded interrupt handler attached to the event. This
means that on x86 we no longer have 4 bazillion interrupt threads with
no handlers. It also means that interrupt events with only INTR_FAST
handlers no longer have an associated thread either.
- Renamed struct intrhand to struct intr_handler to follow the struct
intr_foo naming convention. This did require renaming the powerpc
MD struct intr_handler to struct ppc_intr_handler.
- INTR_FAST no longer implies INTR_EXCL on all architectures except for
powerpc. This means that multiple INTR_FAST handlers can attach to the
same interrupt and that INTR_FAST and non-INTR_FAST handlers can attach
to the same interrupt. Sharing INTR_FAST handlers may not always be
desirable, but having sio(4) and uhci(4) fight over an IRQ isn't fun
either. Drivers can always still use INTR_EXCL to ask for an interrupt
exclusively. The way this sharing works is that when an interrupt
comes in, all the INTR_FAST handlers are executed first, and if any
threaded handlers exist, the interrupt thread is scheduled afterwards.
This type of layout also makes it possible to investigate using interrupt
filters ala OS X where the filter determines whether or not its companion
threaded handler should run.
- Aside from the INTR_FAST changes above, the impact on MD interrupt code
is mostly just 's/ithread/intr_event/'.
- A new MI ddb command 'show intrs' walks the list of interrupt events
dumping their state. It also has a '/v' verbose switch which dumps
info about all of the handlers attached to each event.
- We currently don't destroy an interrupt thread when the last threaded
handler is removed because it would suck for things like ppbus(8)'s
braindead behavior. The code is present, though, it is just under
#if 0 for now.
- Move the code to actually execute the threaded handlers for an interrrupt
event into a separate function so that ithread_loop() becomes more
readable. Previously this code was all in the middle of ithread_loop()
and indented halfway across the screen.
- Made struct intr_thread private to kern_intr.c and replaced td_ithd
with a thread private flag TDP_ITHREAD.
- In statclock, check curthread against idlethread directly rather than
curthread's proc against idlethread's proc. (Not really related to intr
changes)
