different "platforms" on x86 machines. The existing code already handles having two platforms: ACPI and legacy. However, the existing approach was rather hardcoded and difficult to extend. These changes take the approach that each x86 hardware platform should provide its own nexus(4) driver (it can inherit most of its behavior from the default legacy nexus(4) driver) which is responsible for probing for the platform and performing appropriate platform-specific setup during attach (such as adding a platform-specific bus device). This does mean changing the x86 platform busses to no longer use an identify routine for probing, but to move that logic into their matching nexus(4) driver instead. - Make the default nexus(4) driver in nexus.c on i386 and amd64 handle the legacy platform. It's probe routine now returns BUS_PROBE_GENERIC so it can be overriden. - Expose a nexus_init_resources() routine which initializes the various resource managers so that subclassed nexus(4) drivers can invoke it from their attach routine. - The legacy nexus(4) driver explicitly adds a legacy0 device in its attach routine. - The ACPI driver no longer contains an new-bus identify method. Instead it exposes a public function (acpi_identify()) which is a probe routine that the MD nexus(4) drivers can use to probe for ACPI. All of the probe logic in acpi_probe() is now moved into acpi_identify() and acpi_probe() is just a stub. - On i386 and amd64, an ACPI-specific nexus(4) driver checks for ACPI via acpi_identify() and claims the nexus0 device if the probe succeeds. It then explicitly adds an acpi0 device in its attach routine. - The legacy(4) driver no longer knows anything about the acpi0 device. - On ia64 if acpi_identify() fails you basically end up with no devices. This matches the previous behavior where the old acpi_identify() would fail to add an acpi0 device again leaving you with no devices. Discussed with: imp Silence on: arch@ |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
