USB-EL1202A chipset. Between this and the other two drivers, we should
have support for pretty much every USB ethernet adapter on the market.
The only other USB chip that I know of is the SMC USB97C196, and right
now I don't know of any adapters that use it (including the ones made
by SMC :/ ).
Note that the CATC chip supports a nifty feature: read and write combining.
This allows multiple ethernet packets to be transfered in a single USB
bulk in/out transaction. However I'm again having trouble with large
bulk in transfers like I did with the ADMtek chip, which leads me to
believe that our USB stack needs some work before we can really make
use of this feature. When/if things improve, I intend to revisit the
aue and cue drivers. For now, I've lost enough sanity points.
ddb is entered. Don't refer to `in_Debugger' to see if we
are in the debugger. (The variable used to be static in Debugger()
and wasn't updated if ddb is entered via traps and panic anyway.)
- Don't refer to `in_Debugger'.
- Add `db_active' to i386/i386/db_interface.d (as in
alpha/alpha/db_interface.c).
- Remove cnpollc() stub from ddb/db_input.c.
- Add the dbctl function to syscons, pcvt, and sio. (The function for
pcvt and sio is noop at the moment.)

Some changes were obtained from: NetBSD
hinted at in the previous config(8) commits. I've spoken about this with
a few people and after the initial suprise wore off they thought it wasn't
a bad idea. The upshot of it is that all the files*, Makefile*, options*
files are all right next to each other in the hope that people making
changes to one set will remember the others.
Note, config(8) looks to sys/conf first, and falls back to sys/$mach/conf
still, so this doesn't stop people working in subdirs for new platforms.
But once it's in the tree it can be moved next to the other files so that
the non-i386 platforms are (hopefully) treated a little better than as if
they were "second class" ports.
This does not change any user editable files. the config program is
still run in the same directory as before, the per-platform files
(GENERIC, LINT etc) are still in the same place.
it's always true on these platforms (and is likely to be on others as
well since loader is the one that is configured for whatever the boot
requirements are)

Kawasaki LSI KL5KUSB101B chip, including the LinkSys USB10T, the
Entrega NET-USB-E45, the Peracom USB Ethernet Adapter, the 3Com
3c19250 and the ADS Technologies USB-10BT. This device is 10mbs
half-duplex only, so there's miibus or ifmedia support. This device
also requires firmware to be loaded into it, however KLSI allows
redistribution of the firmware images (I specifically asked about
this; they said it was ok).
Special thanks to Annelise Anderson for getting me in touch with
KLSI (eventually) and thanks to KLSI for providing the necessary
programming info.
Highlights:
- Add driver files to /sys/dev/usb
- update usbdevs and regenerate attendate files
- update usb_quirks.c
- Update HARDWARE.TXT and RELNOTES.TXT for i386 and alpha
- Update LINT, GENERIC and others for i386, alpha and pc98
- Add man page
- Add module
- Update sysinstall and userconfig.c

USB ethernet chip. Adapters that use this chip include the LinkSys
USB100TX. There are a few others, but I'm not certain of their
availability in the U.S. I used an ADMtek eval board for development.
Note that while the ADMtek chip is a 100Mbps device, you can't really
get 100Mbps speeds over USB. Regardless, this driver uses miibus to
allow speed and duplex mode selection as well as autonegotiation.
Building and kldloading the driver as a module is also supported.
Note that in order to make this driver work, I had to make what some
may consider an ugly hack to sys/dev/usb/usbdi.c. The usbd_transfer()
function will use tsleep() for synchronous transfers that don't complete
right away. This is a problem since there are times when we need to
do sync transfers from an interrupt context (i.e. when reading registers
from the MAC via the control endpoint), where tsleep() us a no-no.
My hack allows the driver to have the code poll for transfer completion
subject to the xfer->timeout timeout rather that calling tsleep().
This hack is controlled by a quirk entry and is only enabled for the
ADMtek device.
Now, I'm sure there are a few of you out there ready to jump on me
and suggest some other approach that doesn't involve a busy wait. The
only solution that might work is to handle the interrupts in a kernel
thread, where you may have something resembling a process context that
makes it okay to tsleep(). This is lovely, except we don't have any
mechanism like that now, and I'm not about to implement such a thing
myself since it's beyond the scope of driver development. (Translation:
I'll be damned if I know how to do it.) If FreeBSD ever aquires such
a mechanism, I'll be glad to revisit the driver to take advantage of
it. In the meantime, I settled for what I perceived to be the solution
that involved the least amount of code changes. In general, the hit
is pretty light.
Also note that my only USB test box has a UHCI controller: I haven't
I don't have a machine with an OHCI controller available.

- Updated usb_quirks.* to add UQ_NO_TSLEEP quirk for ADMtek part.
- Updated usbdevs and regenerated generated files
- Updated HARDWARE.TXT and RELNOTES.TXT files
- Updated sysinstall/device.c and userconfig.c
- Updated kernel configs -- device aue0 is commented out by default
- Updated /sys/conf/files
- Added new kld module directory

to `register_t *'. This fixes bugs like misplacement of argc and argv
on the user stack on i386's with 64-bit longs. We still use longs to
represent "words" like argc and argv, and assume that they are on the
stack (and that there is stack). The suword() and fuword() families
should also use register_t.

kernel builds so as not to confuse with perl4 when bootstrapping from old

to be consistant at least.
Also copy vnode_if.sh to vnode_if.pl. Doing a 'sh vnode_if.sh' when it
was a perl script was kinda silly.

History:
The bulk of this code was obtained from NetBSD approximately one year
ago (I have taken care to preserve the original NetBSD copyrights and
I thank the authors for their work.) At that time, the OSF/1 code was
what was left over from their initial bootstrapping off of OSF/1 and
did not provide support for executing shared binaries.
I have independently added support for shared libraries, and support
for some of the more obscure system calls. This code has been
available for testing and comment since January of 1999 and running on
production machines here at Duke since April.
Known working applications include:
- Netscape (all versions I've tried)
- Mathematica 3.0.2
- Splus 3.4
- ArcInfo 7.1
- Matlab (version unknown)
- SimOS
- Atom instrumented binaries (built on a real OSF/1 system)
Applications which are known not to work:
- All applications linking to libmach
- Adobe Acrobat (uses libmach)
This has been tested with applications running against shared
libraries from OSF/1 (aka Tru64) 4.0D and 4.0F.

tsunami systems and the PCI bus-numbering system of FreeBSD. Eg, the former
allows for 2 PCI bus 2's (one each on hoses 0 and 1) while the latter
needs to give each PCI bus a unique monotonically increasing number.
It has been fairly well tested and correctly maps machines with a ppb on
hose 1 as well as machines with ppbs on both hoses.
DS10s remain untested, as I do not have a pci card with a ppb which will
pass POST in a tsunami.
This is a house of cards.
