accesses after the BIOS bus scan. The previous revision made the assumption,
that every PCI motherboard did ...
Change the test on the initial value of the CONF1_ADDR_PORT register in a way
that makes the probe succeed on triton based motherboards, without breaking
the EISA motherboard that has some non-PCI register at the same address.
This is truly a hack. The idea is taken from the Linux ibcs2 emulator.
To use this feature, you must use the option,
options SPX_HACK
in your config.
Also, in /compat/ibcs2/dev, you must do:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Oct 15 22:20 X0R@ -> /dev/null
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 7 Oct 15 22:20 nfsd@ -> socksys
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Oct 15 22:20 socksys@ -> /dev/null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 41, 1 Oct 15 22:14 spx
Do NOT use old socksys driver as that has been removed.
This hack needs /compat/ibcs2/dev/spx to be any device that does NOT
exist/configured (so the now non-existant spx major/minor works fine).
When an open() is called, the error ENXIO is checked and then the
path is checked. If spx open detected, then a unix socket is opened
to the hardcoded path "/tmp/.X11-unix/X0".
As the Linux hacker author mentioned, the real way would be to detect
the getmsg/putmsg through /dev/X0R and /dev/spx. Until this true
solution is implemented (if ever), I think this hack is important
enough to be put into the tree, even though I don't like it dirtying
up my clean code (which is what #ifdef SPX_HACK is for).
Currently, the emulator defaults to returning "FreeBSD" as the system
name, release "3.2", and version "2.0". Some programs want to make
sure they are on a SYSV 3.2 system and check for 3.X release number.
Use the following defines to override the defaults:
IBCS2_UNAME_SYSNAME
IBCS2_UNAME_RELEASE
IBCS2_UNAME_VERSION
(should be string)
for system name, release, and version, respectively. This allows
someone to compile the emulator into the kernel so it can pretend
to be a specific system if needed.
Require the state of the configuration enable bits to be OFF assuming
that the BIOS left them that way, as it should anyway to avoid bad things
to happen.
The tests themselves are copied from the previous release, with the
exception of CONF1_ENABLE_MSK1 having the LSB set. This bit should be
read back as '0', since only DWORD addresses are legal.
I tried to solve the problem of IDE probing compatibility in this version.
When compiled without an ATAPI option, the wd driver is
fully backward compatible with 2.0.5. With ATAPI option,
the wdprobe becomes strictly weaker. That is, if wdprobe works
without ATAPI option, it will always work with it too.
Another problem was with the CD-ROM drive attached as a slave
in the IDE bus, where there is no master. All IDE CD-ROM
drives are shipped in slave configuration, and most users
just plug them in, never thinking about jumpers.
It works fine with ms-dos and ms-windows, and this
version of the driver supports it as well.
The eject op can now load disks. Just repeat it twice,
and the disk will be ejected and then loaded back.
The disc cannot be ejected if it is mounted.

nxmmap() returned a bogus value as well as having a bogus type. Some
drivers use nxmmap() for configured devices (`nx' functions should
only be used for unconfigured devices). These drivers allowed mmapping
physical page 6, which may have interesting contents. vm has kludges
to avoid the same bug with nullop() returning page 0 and enodev()
returning page 19 (ENODEV), but didn't handle enxio() returning page 6.
vm is the wrong place to handle these bugs.
free-run and doing a subtract in microtime() rather than resetting the
counter to zero at every clock tick. In combination with the changes to
kern_clock.c, this should eliminate all the immediately obvious sources
of systematic jitter in timekeeping on Pentium machines.
in line with linux alt space of /compat/linux.
This was pointed out by Stefan Esser.
In cheching alt space for libraries in imgact_coff.c, use const
ibcs2_emul_path instead of its own local string. Also do a proper
malloc of temp name according to MAXPATHLEN.
Add new files created for emulator.
Modify NetBSD import to work with FreeBSD and add new features and
code. The complete emulator is essentially a combination of work/code
implemented by Sean Eric Fagan, Soren Schmidt, Scott Bartram, and myself,
Steven Wallace.
Features of this new emulator system include:
o "clean" code, including strict prototyping.
o Auto-generation of ibcs2 system calls, xenix system calls, isc system
calls. Generation includes system tables, structure definitions,
and prototyping of function calls.
o ibcs2 emulator does not rely on any COMPAT_43 system calls.
o embedded socksys support
o ibcs2 msgsys, semsys, shmsys calls supported if supported in kernel
o alternate /emul/ibcs2 namespace searched first for files in ibcs2
system. Usefull to keep sysv libraries, binaries in /emul/ibcs2.
o many other finer details and functions fixed or implemented.
which is used as a basis for a more complete and cleaner ibcs2 emulator.
(snapshot about May 1995 with a few files from September 1995)
Some files and code from old emulator still remains.
New files, features, and changes have been implemented by myself,
which will be shown in following commits.
Extend test coverage:
Add and enable undocumented options TCPDEBUG, COMPAT_LINUX and IBCS2.
Add but disable (broken) pseudo device tb.
Add and enable pseudo devices su, ssc.
Add but disable (broken) devices sscape0, trix0.
Add and enable device bqu0.
option DDB_NO_LCALLS to stop ddb getting control and broke all ddb
tracing. Now there is no option and no way for ddb to trace at
address _Xsyscall or to _Xsyscall, but tracing everywhere else
works. The previous fix did unnecessary things for Linux syscalls.
Don't bother checking that syscall frames are for user mode.
Make debugger traps inside the kernel (except at addresses _Xsyscall
and _Xsyscall+1) fatal if ddb is not configured. They "can't happen".
Add prototypes.
Remove stupid comments, e.g., /*ARGSUSED*/ for args that are used.
match the board setting.
2) Fixed the warning message to properly print the irq mismatch (as opposed
to the bit encoded value).
3) Add irq autodetection if the kernel has "?" or no irq specified.
4) Add missing splimp protection in ixioctl().

1. stepping over syscalls (gdb ni) sends you to DDB, and returned
to the wrong address afterwards, with or without DDB. patch in
i386/i386/trap.c below.
2. the linux emulator (modload'ed) still causes panics with DIAGNOSTIC,

This is really just a token gesture at this point. We can't really turn
on swapping here anymore because (I think) we need to do a namei() lookup
in order to get a vnode which we can pass to swaponvp(). But to do a
namei(), we need a properly initialized proc structure, and we don't
have one. (I was hopping to toss it proc0, but that isn't initialized
until later.) We could conceiveably fabricate a dummy proc structure
to make namei() happy, but that's too much work for too little payoff.
For now, swapgeneric's only remaining saving grace is that it lets
you set the root device with -a.
