options USERCONFIG being present. Due to the lack of early boot hints
neither sio or sc would succeed the console probe. If USERCONFIG was
active, there was a second cninit() after userconfig had run and that
happened to make the console selection work. If you left out USERCONFIG,
you would end up with no console at all. :-(
This needs a proper fix, especially when sc looses the "at isa" hint.
But for now, this works.

Also improve debug output for mmap, now showing what the emulation
layer mapped to what (-DDEBUG).

implying that they aren't used for the rest of the system.
Fix the lies:
253 is used by mfs (bad MFS for not registering it).
254 is a magic cookie inside of the dev code in at least one place.
255 is -1 which is magic in a different way in the dev code.
So, that means that 200-252 are reserved for local users. A grep for
252 didn't turn anything up, so I'm assuming it and lower are safe.
And I thought I was being smart by allocating our local major numbers
from 254 on down. This caused very very odd problems that were hard
to track down: close not being called, sync failing at reboot, etc.

Set sourceid to 0 when booting, which is the correct setting for stdin.
Set sourceid to an arbitrary fd when include'ing, preserving and restoring
the previous sourceid. This is possibly broken(), as 0 is a valid fd. Maybe
we should +1 to this value.
This fixes the version problem widely reported.
errors were normally harmless because they were in unreachable code

Order the SYSINIT() for MALLOC_DEFINE() correctly so that malloc()
doesn't have to waste time initializing itself. The
(SI_SUB_KMEM, SI_ORDER_ANY) order was shared with syscons' SYSINIT()
for scmeminit(), and scmeminit() calls malloc(), so malloc()
initialization was not always complete on the first call to malloc().

- Removed self-initialization in malloc().
- Removed half-baked sanity check in free(). Trust MALLOC_DEFINE().

not allowed to return EINTR, but use of pthread_suspend_np() could cause
EINTR to be returned. To fix this, restructure pthread_suspend_np() so that
it does not interrupt a thread that is waiting on a mutex or condition, and
keep enough state around that pthread_resume_np() can fix things up
afterwards.

in the dysfunctional !KMEMSTATS case. This hasn't compiled since
rev.1.31 of kern_malloc.c quietly removed the core of the support
for the !KMEMSTATS case. I fixed it to see if it was worth saving
and found that (as usual) inlining just wasted space and increased
complexity without significantly affecting time, at least for the
lmbench2 micro-benchmark on a Celeron. The space bloat was
surprisingly large - the text size increased from 1700K to 1840K
for a version with the entire malloc() family inlined.
Removed even older garbage (kmemxtob() and btokmemx() macros).
Attempt to deprecate MALLOC() and FREE(). Given current compilers
(gcc-2.x or C99), they don't do anything that (safe) function-like
macros or inline functions named malloc() and free() couldn't do.
Fixed missing casts of macro args in MALLOC() and FREE().

FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader, Revision 0.8
(root@outback.netplex.com.au, Tue Jun 13 23:26:49 PDT 2000)
Loader version 0.3+ required
Aborted!
start not found
Note that the 0.3+ message is from inside the arch-alpha block, not the
i386 block of code. And even then, 0.8 is higher than 0.3.
This prevents the rest of the loader.conf stuff working. :-/
Implement the Solaris way to break into DDB over a serial console
instead of sending a break. Sending the character sequence

Use Warner Losh's "hint" driver to decode ascii strings to fill the
resource table at boot time.
config(8) no longer generates an ioconf.c table - ie: the configuration
no longer has to be compiled into the kernel. You can reconfigure your
isa devices with the likes of this at loader(8) time:
set hint.ed.0.port=0x320
userconfig will be rewritten to use this style interface one day and will
move to /boot/userconfig.4th or something like that.
It is still possible to statically compile in a set of hints into a kernel
if you do not wish to use loader(8). See the "hints" directive in GENERIC
as an example.
All device wiring has been moved out of config(8). There is a set of
helper scripts (see i386/conf/gethints.pl, and the same for alpha and pc98)
that extract the 'at isa? port foo irq bar' from the old files and produces
a hints file. If you install this file as /boot/device.hints (and update
/boot/defaults/loader.conf - You can do a build/install in sys/boot) then
loader will load it automatically for you. You can also compile in the
hints directly with: hints "device.hints" as well.
There are a few things that I'm not too happy with yet. Under this scheme,
things like LINT would no longer be useful as "documentation" of settings.
I have renamed this file to 'NOTES' and stored the example hints strings
in it. However... this is not something that config(8) understands, so
there is a script that extracts the build-specific data from the
documentation file (NOTES) to produce a LINT that can be config'ed and
built. A stack of man4 pages will need updating. :-/
Also, since there is no longer a difference between 'device' and
'pseudo-device' I collapsed the two together, and the resulting 'device'
takes a 'number of units' for devices that still have it statically
allocated. eg: 'device fe 4' will compile the fe driver with NFE set
to 4. You can then set hints for 4 units (0 - 3). Also note that
'device fe0' will be interpreted as "zero units of 'fe'" which would be
bad, so there is a config warning for this. This is only needed for
old drivers that still have static limits on numbers of units.
All the statically limited drivers that I could find were marked.
Please exercise EXTREME CAUTION when transitioning!

Btw, the new TEKRAM DC-390 U3D and U3W Ultra-160

and thus SYMBIOS NVRAM layout.
If that means that TEKRAM will now offer real
SYMBIOS software compatible SCSI controllers, then
it is a *GREAT NEWS*.
