This change forces the controller drivers to allocate a scsibus_data struct
via a call to scsi_alloc_bus(), fill in the adapter_link field, and optionally
modify any other fields of the struct. Scsi_alloc_bus() initializes all fields
to the default, so the changes in most drivers are very minimal. For drivers
that support Wide controllers, the maxtarg field will have to be updated to
allow probing of all targets (for an example, look at the aic7xxx driver).
Scsi_attachdevs() now takes a scsibus_data* as its argument instead of an
sc_link*. This allows us to expand the role of the scsibus_data struct for
other bus level configuration setings (max number of transactions, current
transaction opennings, etc for better tagged queuing support).

Garrett,
Here are some patches for the rate limiting code. It should be faster,
and in particular it doesn't leak malloc'd memory any more when rate_limit'ing
a phyint.
It now uses an mbuf chain at each vif, instead of the static queue array.
This means that the MAXQSIZE is now variable per vif (although there is no
interface to change it other than a debugger); this is an area for more

to replace the very poor, original implementation of Scatter/Gather operations.
Use a bit (that was freed up with the rewrite above) in the SCB control byte
to designate commands that should allow disconnection. The kernel driver
makes this decision now instead of the sequencer since the sequencer can't
do the indexing very efficiently.
This commit drops the sequencer from 426 instructions to 390 most likely
freeing enough space to do a target mode implementation.
The first could occur because the original code would continue to reset
the SCSIID register while waiting for a selection. This could potentially
conflict with a reconnect since a successfull reconnect will also set the
SCSIID register. The fix is to use a separate wait loop after starting
a selection (as was done a few revisions ago).
The second probably never happens, but it was possible for a target to
reconnect while there was a pending SCB on the waiting list and not get
noticed. The fix was to remove a supurflous check of the scb waiting
list.

hardware. Set the sleep-on flag for the address so there is more
than a small chance that the sleep address is actually used (this
used to work by timing out). Don't bother clearing the sleep-on
flag after a timeout here or elsewhere since leaving it set just
generates a few null calls to wakeup().
Introduce TS_CONNECTED and TS_ZOMBIE states. TS_CONNECTED is set
while a connection is established. It is set while (TS_CARR_ON or
CLOCAL is set) and TS_ZOMBIE is clear. TS_ZOMBIE is set for on to
off transitions of TS_CARR_ON that occur when CLOCAL is clear and
is cleared for off to on transitions of CLOCAL. I/o can only occur
while TS_CONNECTED is set. TS_ZOMBIE prevents further i/o.
Split the input-event sleep address TSA_CARR_ON(tp) into TSA_CARR_ON(tp)
and TSA_HUP_OR_INPUT(tp). The former address is now used only for
off to on carrier transitions and equivalent CLOCAL transitions.
The latter is used for all input events, all carrier transitions
and certain CLOCAL transitions. There are some harmless extra
wakeups for rare connection- related events. Previously there were
too many extra wakeups for non-rare input events.
Drivers now call l_modem() instead of setting TS_CARR_ON directly
to handle even the initial off to on transition of carrier. They
should always have done this. l_modem() now handles TS_CONNECTED
and TS_ZOMBIE as well as TS_CARR_ON.

test CLOCAL. TS_ISOPEN was tested instead, but that broke when we disabled
the clearing of TS_ISOPEN for certain transitions of CLOCAL.

Use input buffer watermarks of TTYHOG-512 (high) and (high)*7/8

>= TTYHOG-512 to work; now they depend on the 512 magic not changing
and TTYHOG-512 being significantly larger than 0. This should be
handled in ttsetwater().
Separate the decision about whether to do input flow control from
doing it. ttyblock() now just starts input flow control (hardware
and/or software) and there is a new function ttyunblock() to stop
it. The decisions are the same except for the watermark changes
and allowing for input expansion for PARMRK.
When flushing input, try harder at first to send a start character
if required, but give up if the first attempt fails.
cy.c, rc.c, sio.c:
Simplify: let ttyinput() handle input flow control if it is not
being bypassed. Use ttyblock() to start flow control otherwise.

Use same input flow control test as elsewhere: test in a more
efficient order and start flow control at >= highwater instead of
at > highwater.

It may be useful to have a null modem routine, but nullmodem()

wakeups for off to on carrier transitions, and didn't flush the
i/o queues for on to off carrier transitions (flushing has the side
effect of waking up readers and writers) although it did generate
SIGHUPs. The wakeups must normally be done even if nullmodem() is
null in case something is sleeping waiting for a carrier transition.
In any case, the wakeups should be harmless. They may cause bogus
results for select(), but select() is already bogus for nonstandard
line disciplines.
