<string.h> isn't supposed to be used by the kernel.
cronix.h is <machine/cronix.h>, not "cronyx.h" (ambiguous) or
<sys/cronyx.h> (nonexistent; caused compile to fail).
cxreg.h is <i386/isa/cxreg.h>, not "cxreg.h".
<i386/isa/cpufunc.h> shouldn't be included directly; it is always
included by <sys/systm.h>.
<i386/include/*.h> is <machine/*.h>
<systm.h> is <sys/systm.h>.
<kernel.h> is <sys/kernel.h>.
<bpfilter.h> is "bpfilter.h". It really is in the current directory.
>Description:
If a process attempts to open a floppy tape device when the
device has been configured in the kernel, but did not probe and attach
on bootup, then a panic will occur.
[Review: The current ft situation is a crock, and this only bandaids
an earlier wound inflicted by making the attach conditional. This urgently
requires a review]

Keep track of interrupt nesting level. It is normally 0
for syscalls and traps, but is fudged to 1 for their exit
processing in case they metamorphose into an interrupt
handler.
i386/genassym.c;
Remove support for the obsolete pcb_iml and pcb_cmap2.
Add support for pcb_inl.
i386/swtch.s:
Fudge the interrupt nesting level across context switches and in
the idle loop so that the work for preemptive context switches
gets counted as interrupt time, the work for voluntary context
switches gets counted mostly as system time (the part when
curproc == 0 gets counted as interrupt time), and only truly idle
time gets counted as idle time.
Remove obsolete support (commented out and otherwise) for pcb_iml.
Load curpcb just before curproc instead of just after so that
curpcb is always valid if curproc is. A few more changes like
this may fix tracing through context switches.
Remove obsolete function swtch_to_inactive().
include/cpu.h:
Use the new interrupt nesting level variable to implement a
non-fake CLF_INTR() so that accounting for the interrupt state
works.
You can use top, iostat or (best) an up to date systat to see
interrupt overheads. I see the expected huge interrupt overheads
for ISA devices (on a 486DX/33, about 55% for an IDE drive
transferring 1250K/sec and the same for a WD8013EBT network card
transferring 1100K/sec). The huge interrupt overheads for serial
devices are unfortunately normally invisible.
include/pcb.h:
Remove the obsolete pcb_iml and pcb_cmap2. Replace them by
padding to preserve binary compatibility.
Use part of the new padding for pcb_inl.
isa/icu.s:
isa/vector.s:
Keep track of interrupt nesting level.
used as an address value. Then all comparisons should be done unsigned
and not signed. Fix it with a typecast of u_quad_t.
Error can be demonstrated with the current bash in port, do a
ulimit -s unlimited and the machine hangs. bash delivers through
an internal error a large negative value for the stacksize, the
comparison saw this smaller than MAXSSIZ and then tried to expand
the stack to this size.
Now floppy tape support is *disabled* unless you specifically
request otherwise. Poul wanted it this way, and I guess I'm not going to argue
though it may seem counter-intuitive. We can always change it back, later.
make the sequencer code fully compatible with the aic7870 (ie 294x adaptors).
I've also added to my local mods putting the sequencer into "FASTMODE" clock.
This gives upwards of 2M/sec write preformance improvement in some scenarios.
There haven't been any reports of this causing problems, and I have been
reaping the benifits of it for more than a week now.
This also includes a new version of the pre-generated file <ugh>

flags & 0x1. Somebody should build a kernel with this and see if
the floppy-tape damaged people can turn it off properly with userconfig.
I can't reproduce the original problem here.
This should have been disabled for some time, but I had screwed up ...
This made spurious values appear for fd0 in systat, when there was
NCR SCSI activity.
comconsole will behave as expected. The true problem should be fixed
instead, Bruce' comment for this:
>Anyway, i found the reason for my problems: somehow, ICRNL isn't in
>effect at `userconfig' time (but only for comconsole?), hence only
ICRNL doesn't apply to cngetc(). cnputc() unconditionally does the
equivalent of ONLCR; perhaps cngetc() should unconditionally do the
equivalent of ICRNL. Ddb must be checking for CR. Userconfig only
checks for NL. Userconfig works with syscons because pccngetc()
does the conversion. This is probably the wrong place to do it.
Allow chown() to return success if the gid isn't changed even if
the gid is not the caller's. Such gids are normal for files created
in world-writable directories sucj as /tmp. This "fixes" annoying
error messages for mv'ing files created in /tmp to another file
system. mv still preserves the foreign gid of /tmp, but now does
it silently.
operation of each clist. Limit the growth of each clist. Clists
can only grow larger than the reserved minimum if there are free
cblocks in a shared pool. The size of this pool is now fixed
(this could be improved). The reserved and maximum sizes are more
carefully allocated for slip and ppp, depending on the mtu. A maximum
MTU of 16384 is now enforced for ppp.
