a bug in a Makefile anyway?
Has anyone seen the pointy hat? :-o

acpi4asus project which implements these features in the Linux kernel.
If this breaks your laptop, please let me know how it does it :-)

there are a lot of other dependencies that preclude the kernel from
working). Instead, have a more generic note that isa should not be
removed. This should be less confusing for users.
different BIOSs use the same exact settings to mean two very different and
incompatible things for the SCI. Thus, if the SCI is remapped to a PCI
interrupt, we now trust the trigger/polarity that the MADT provides by
default. However, the SCI can be forced to level/lo as 1.10 did by setting
the tunable "hw.acpi.force_sci_lo" to a non-zero value from the loader.
Thus, if rev 1.10 caused an interrupt storm, it should nwo fix your
machine. If rev 1.10 fixed an interrupt storm on your machine, you
probably need to set the aforementioned tunable in /boot/loader.conf to
prevent the interrupt storm.
The more general problem of getting the SCI's trigger/polarity programmed
"correctly" (for some value of correctly meaning several workarounds for
broken BIOSs and inconsistent "implementations" of the ACPI standard) is
going to require more work, but this band-aid should improve the current
situation somewhat.

change the video output but use a separate device with a DSSX method
and a HID of "TOS6201" instead. We use a pseudo-driver to get the handle
for this object and pass it to the acpi_toshiba driver.
This is untested but seems to match the Linux Toshiba driver.
move its declaration to the machine-dependent header file on those
machines that use it. In principle, only i386 should have it.
Alpha and AMD64 should use their direct virtual-to-physical mapping.
- Remove pmap_kenter_temporary() from ia64. It is unused. Approved

without the (defunct) isa compatibility shims. The new-bus-specific
parts are very similar to the ones for the pci probe and attach.
This was held up too long waiting for a repo copy to src/sys/dev/cy,
so I decided to fix the files in their old place. This gives easier
to read and merge diffs anyway.
The "count" line in src/sys/conf/files won't be changed until after
the repo copy, so old kernel configs that specify a count need not be
(and must not be) changed until then. The count is just ignored in
the driver. One unfinished detail is dynamic allocation of arrays
with <count> and (<count> * 32) entries, and iteration over the arrays.
This is now kludged with a fixed count of 10 (up to 10 cards with up
to 32 ports each).

common attach function so that the lock gets initialized in all cases.
This fixes breakage of the initialization of the lock in the pci case
in rev.1.135 (between the releases of 5.1 and 5.2). The lock is only
used in the SMP case, so this bug was not always fatal.
it belongs. Change the implementation to match those of rfs() and
rgs() for consistency and irrespective of whether the original was
more correct or not (technically speaking).

with more than the normal amount of stack pages, however the stack
pointer always wound up being initialized using KSTACK_PAGES. It
should be using td->td_kstack_pages instead. This means that although
the vm subsystem would give you all the stack pages you asked for,
%esp would always be initialized as if you had just 2 pages, and
the rest would go to waste.
I wanted to use the 'give me more stack pages' feature of kthread_create()
because the Intel 2200BG NDIS driver does an alloca() of about 5000 bytes,
which wrecks the stack with the default 2 page size, and I was baffled
that no matter how much code I shoved into thread contexts with
allegedly larger stacks, the thing would still crash unless I changed
KSTACK_PAGES.
Note: this bug is present in _ALL_ arches at this point. Peter has
promised to merge this fix into all of them.
level of abstraction for any and all CPU mask and CPU bitmap variables
so that platforms have the ability to break free from the hard limit
of 32 CPUs, simply because we don't have more bits in an u_int. Note
that the type is not supposed to solve massive parallelism, where
the number of CPUs can be larger than the width of the widest integral
type. As such, cpumask_t is not supposed to be a compound type. If
such would be necessary in the future, we can deal with the issues
then and there. For now, it can be assumed that the type is integral
and unsigned.
With this commit, all MD definitions start off as u_int. This allows
us to phase-in cpumask_t at our leasure without breaking anything.
Once cpumask_t is used consistently, platforms can switch to wider
(or smaller) types if such would be beneficial (or not; whatever :-)

options, status pointer and rusage pointer as arguments. It is up to
the caller to copyout the status and rusage to userland if needed. This
lets us axe the 'compat' argument and hide all that functionality in
owait(), by the way. This also cleans up some locking in kern_wait()
since it no longer has to drop locks around copyout() since all the
copyout()'s are deferred.
- Convert owait(), wait4(), and the various ABI compat wait() syscalls to
use kern_wait() rather than wait1() or wait4(). This removes a bit
more stackgap usage.

dependent function by the same name and a machine-independent function,
sf_buf_mext(). Aside from the virtue of making more of the code machine-
independent, this change also makes the interface more logical. Before,
sf_buf_free() did more than simply undo an sf_buf_alloc(); it also
unwired and if necessary freed the page. That is now the purpose of
sf_buf_mext(). Thus, sf_buf_alloc() and sf_buf_free() can now be used
as a general-purpose emphemeral map cache.
