the offending inline function (BUF_KERNPROC) on it being #included
already.
I'm not sure BUF_KERNPROC() is even the right thing to do or in the
right place or implemented the right way (inline vs normal function).
Remove consequently unneeded #includes of <sys/proc.h>
used in lower layer (scsi_low.c).
The flag of ncv for KME KXLC004 was chaged from 0x1 to 0x100.
The flag of nsp for PIO mode was chaged from 0x1 to 0x100.
command register is too aggressive. Revert to the previous behaviour, but
leave the new behaviour available as an undocumented option. It's not
clear what the Right, Right Thing is to do here, but the more conservative
approach is safer.
a RealTek 8139 cardbus device. Unfortunately it doesn't quite work yet
because the CIS parser barfs on it.
Submitted by msmith, with some small tweaks by me.
ACPICA. Most of these are still works in progress. Support exists for:
- Fixed feature and control method power, lid and sleep buttons.
- Detection of ISA PnP devices using ACPI namespace.
- Detection of PCI root busses using ACPI namespace.
- CPU throttling and sleep states (incomplete)
- Thermal monitoring and cooling control (incomplete)
- Interface to platform embedded controllers (mostly complete)
- ACPI timer (incomplete)
- Simple userland control of sleep states.
- Shutdown and poweroff.
because it only takes a struct tag which makes it impossible to
use unions, typedefs etc.
Define __offsetof() in <machine/ansi.h>
Define offsetof() in terms of __offsetof() in <stddef.h> and <sys/types.h>
Remove myriad of local offsetof() definitions.
Remove includes of <stddef.h> in kernel code.
NB: Kernelcode should *never* include from /usr/include !
Make <sys/queue.h> include <machine/ansi.h> to avoid polluting the API.
Deprecate <struct.h> with a warning. The warning turns into an error on
01-12-2000 and the file gets removed entirely on 01-01-2001.

Significant brucifications by: bde
the PCI latency timer value to 0x80. Davicom's Linux driver does this,
and it drastically reduces the number of TX underruns in my tests. (Note:
this is done only for the Davicom chips. I'm not sure it's a good idea to
do it for all of them.)
Again, still waiting on confirmation before merging to stable.
DM9100/DM9102 chips. Do not set DC_TX_ONE. The DC_TX_USE_TX_INTR flag
causes dc_encap() to set the 'interrupt on TX completion' bit only
once every 64 packets. This is an attempt to reduce the number
of interrupts generated by the chip. You're supposed to get a 'no more
TX buffers left' interrupt once you hit the last packet whether you
ask for one or not, however it seems the Davicom chip doesn't generate
this interrupt, or at least it doesn't generate it under the same
circumstances. The result is that if you transmit n packets, where
n is less than 64, and then wait 5 seconds, you'll get a watchdog
timeout whether you want one or not. The DC_TX_INTR_ALWAYS causes
dc_encap() to request an interrupt for every frame.
I'm still waiting on confirmation from a couple of users to see if this
fixes their problems with the Davicom DM9102 before I merge this into
-stable, but this fixed the problem for me in my own testing so I'm
willing to make the change to -current right away.
- Layout reorganisation to enhance portability. The driver now has
a relatively MI 'core' and a FreeBSD-specific layer over the top.
Since the NetBSD people have already done their own port, this is
largely just to help me with the BSD/OS port.
- Request ID allocation changed to improve performance (I'd been
considering switching to this approach after having failed to come
up with a better way to dynamically allocate request IDs, and seeing
Andy Doran use it in the NetBSD port of the driver convinced me
that I was wasting my time doing it any other way). Now we just
allocate all the requests up front.
- Maximum request count bumped back to 255 after characterisation
of a firmware issue (off-by-one causing it to crash with 256
outstanding commands).
- Control interface implemented. This allows 3ware's '3dm' utility to
talk to the controller. 3dm will be available from 3ware shortly.
- Controller soft-reset feature added; if the controller signals a
firmware or protocol error, the controller will be reset and all
outstanding commands will be retried.
type of software interrupt. Roughly, what used to be a bit in spending
now maps to a swi thread. Each thread can have multiple handlers, just
like a hardware interrupt thread.
- Instead of using a bitmask of pending interrupts, we schedule the specific
software interrupt thread to run, so spending, NSWI, and the shandlers
array are no longer needed. We can now have an arbitrary number of
software interrupt threads. When you register a software interrupt
thread via sinthand_add(), you get back a struct intrhand that you pass
to sched_swi() when you wish to schedule your swi thread to run.
- Convert the name of 'struct intrec' to 'struct intrhand' as it is a bit
more intuitive. Also, prefix all the members of struct intrhand with
'ih_'.
- Make swi_net() a MI function since there is now no point in it being
MD.

usb_ethersubr.c. This module maintains two queues for packets which
are each protected with one mutex. These are all the changes I can
do for now. Removing the USBD_NO_TSLEEP flag doesn't work yet: when
I tried it, the system would usually freeze up after a NIC had been
operating for a while. The usb_ethersubr module itself ought to
go away; this is the next thing I need to test.
