Historically, the documentation of extended asm was lacking, namely you
should NOT specify the same register as an input, and a clobber.
If the register is clobbered, it should be specified as an output as well,
e.g., by linking input and output through the "number" notation.
(Beware of lvalues, some local variables needed...)

In versions up to egcs-1.1.1, the compiler did not even warn about it,
but it was liable to output bad code. Newer egcs are pickier and simply
refuse to swallow such code.
Note, since *addr changes, it needs to be an output operand.

A more robust fallback path is also provided, with the last recourse

These changes drastically simplify the machine-dependant parts of

Reorganize the attachement point for pcic (it was unattached and
floating before). Attach pccard devices to pcic, one per slot
(although this may change to one per pcic). pcic is now attached to
isa (to act as a bridge) and pccard is attached to pcic, cbb and
pc98ic (the last two are card bus bridge and the pc98ic version of
pcic, neither of which are in the tree yet). Move pccard compat code
into pccard/pccard_compat.c.
THIS REQUIRES A CONFIG FILE CHANGE. You must change your pcic/card
entries to be:
# PCCARD (PCMCIA) support
controller pcic0 at isa?
controller pcic1 at isa?
controller card0
The old system was upside down and this corrects that problem. It
will make it easier to add support for YENTA pccard/card bus bridges.
Much more cleanup needs to happen before newbus devices can have
pccard attachments. My previous commit's comments were premature.

and unusable by the pccard system since pccard doesn't attach to the
nexus any more. This was stopping my 3c589D from working as pccard unit
0 is used directly for resource allocation and this fails when unit 0
isn't actually attached to anything.
In order to make this work, I created a pseudo-PHY driver to deal with
Macronix chips that use the built-in NWAY support and symbol mode port.
This is actually all of them, with the exception of the original MX98713
which presents its NWAY support via the MII serial interface.
The mxphy driver actually manipulates the controller registers directly
rather than using the miibus_readreg()/miibus_writereg() bus interface
since there are no MII registers to read. The mx driver itself pretends
that the NWAY interface is a PHY locayed at MII address 31 for the sole
purpose of allowing the mxphy_probe() routine to know when it needs to
attach to a host controller.

* Move pnp_eisaformat() to pnp.c, declared in <isa/pnpvar.h>.
* Turn the pnpbios code into an enumerator for the isa bus. This allows
all devices known to the bios to be probed automatically.
Currently the pnpbios code is dependant on the PNPBIOS option. As the code
is tested more and when more drivers are converted this will be made the
default. I have PnP changes in the wings for fdc, atkbd, psm, pcaudio, and
joy. Sio already works with pnpbios.

struct sigcontext and ucontext_t/mcontext_t are defined in such
a way that both (ie struct sigcontext and ucontext_t) can be
passed on to sigreturn. The signal handler is still given a
ucontext_t for maximum flexibility.
For backward compatibility sigreturn restores the state for the
alternate signal stack from sigcontext.sc_onstack and not from
ucontext_t.uc_stack. A good way to determine which value the
application has set and thus which value to use, is still open
for discussion.
NOTE: This change should only affect those binaries that use
sigcontext and/or ucontext_t. In the source tree itself
this is only doscmd. Recompilation is required for those
applications.
This commit also fixes a lot of style bugs without hopefully
adding new ones.
NOTE: struct sigaltstack.ss_size now has type size_t again. For
some reason I changed that into unsigned int.

-----------------------------
By introducing a new sigframe so that the signal handler operates
on the new siginfo_t and on ucontext_t instead of sigcontext, we
now need two version of sendsig and sigreturn.
A flag in struct proc determines whether the process expects an
old sigframe or a new sigframe. The signal trampoline handles
which sigreturn to call. It does this by testing for a magic
cookie in the frame.
The alpha uses osigreturn to implement longjmp. This means that
osigreturn is not only used for compatibility with existing
binaries. To handle the new sigset_t, setjmp saves it in
sc_reserved (see NOTE).
the struct sigframe has been moved from frame.h to sigframe.h
to handle the complex header dependencies that was caused by
the new sigframe.
NOTE: For the i386, the size of jmp_buf has been increased to hold
the new sigset_t. On the alpha this has been prevented by
using sc_reserved in sigcontext.

The DM910x chips are still more tulip clones. The API is reproduced
pretty faithfully, unfortunately the performance is pretty bad. The
transmitter seems to have a lot of problems DMAing multi-fragment
packets. The only way to make it work reliably is to coalesce transmitted
packets into a single contiguous buffer. The Linux driver (written by
Davicom) actually does something similar to this. I can't recomment this

This is a fairly simple chipset. The receiver uses a 128-bit multicast

driver uses newbus and miibus and is supported on both the i386 and
