- Split out the prototypes, externs and struct decls from if_epreg.h into
if_epvar.h.
- Add support for MCA based Etherlink III (3c529) devices.
None of this code is used right now; the old if_ep driver is still
in place and used.
I will eventually get around to converting if_ep_isa.c to newbus once I've
had a talk with Peter and DFR about the DEVICE_IDENTIFY() method.
I have tested this code on my PS/2. It works. I would like EISA and ISA
testers since my example hardware hasn't arrived yet.
Add:
dev/ep/if_ep.c optional ep
dev/ep/if_ep_isa.c optional ep isa
dev/ep/if_ep_eisa.c optional ep eisa
dev/ep/if_ep_mca.c optional ep mca
dev/ep/if_ep_pccard.c optional ep card
to sys/conf/files
Remove:
i386/eisa/3c5x9.c optional ep
i386/isa/if_ep.c optional ep
from sys/i386/conf/files.i386
PCCARD testers wanted!
I will switch off and cvs rm the old driver in favor of this copy once
I've had positive feedback or have the hardware to verify that it works.

d_stop moved to struct tty.
d_reset already unused.
d_devtotty linkage now provided by dev_t->si_tty.
These fields will be removed from struct cdevsw together with

The changes in this patch consist of:

This means that we will not have to have a bpf and a non-bpf version

This does not open any security hole, because the bpf core isn't loadable

Enhance MIRROR code. Add a few more sanity checks and implement
a zone-based disk selector to make use of both disks when reading.
Also implement a read fail-over. If a read error occurs on one
disk, the I/O is retried on the other.
NOTE: CCD's mirroring support cannot deal with write errors properly
in regards to recovery, meaning that 'old' data under a write error may
be read non-deterministically if you reboot after a write error, and CCD
certainly cannot deal with a disk changeout. And it still can't. Use
vinum if you are really serious about mirroring. CCD basically just
implements a poor-man's mirror.
sum the total amount of I/O issued to determine when all the I/O
has completed. This fails when the EOF boundry occurs in the middle
of an I/O. Using cbp->cb_buf.b_bufsize works better.
there are stubs compiled into the kernel if BPF support is not enabled,
there aren't any problems with unresolved symbols. The modules in /modules
are compiled with BPF support enabled anyway, so the most this will do is
bloat GENERIC a little.

declaration for the interface driver from "foo" to "if_foo" but leave the
declaration for the miibus attached to the interface driver alone. This
lets the internal module name be "if_foo" while still allowing the miibus
instances to attach to "foo."
This should allow ifconfig to autoload driver modules again without
breaking the miibus attach.
It been awhile since the last major update, as a benefit there
are some cool things in this one (and new bugs probably :) )...
The ATA driver has grown "real" timeout support for all devices.
This means that it should be possible to get in contact with
(especially) lost ATAPI devices. It also means that the ATA
driver is now usable on notebooks as it will DTRT on resume.
An experimental hack at utilizing the Promise66's at UDMA66 is
in there, but I cant test it. If someone feels like sending
me one, give me a ping.
The ATAPI DMA enableling scheme has been changed, also better DMA
support for the Aladdin chipset has been implemented for ATAPI
devices. Note that the Aladdin apparently only can do DMA reads
on ATAPI devices, and the Promise cant do ATAPI DMA at all.
I have seen problems on some ATAPI devices that should be able
to run in DMA mode, so if you encounter problems with hanging
atapi devices during the probe, or during access, disable DMA
in atapi-all.c, and let me know. It might be nessesary to do this
via a "white list" for known good devices...
The ATAPI CDROM driver can now use eject/close without hanging and
the bug that caused reading beyond the end of a CD has been fixed.
Media change is also handled proberly. DVD drives are identified
and are usable as CDROM devices at least, I dont have the HW to
test this further, see above :).
The ATAPI tape driver has gotten some support for using the DSC
method for not blocking the IDE channel during read/write when
the device has full buffers. It knows about the OnStream DI-30
device, support is not completed yet, but it can function as a
primitive backup medium, without filemarks, and without bad media
handeling. This is because the OnStream device doesn't handle this
(like everybody else) in HW. It also now supports getting/setting
the record position on devices that supports it.
Some rather major cleanups and rearrangements as well (cvs -b diff
is your freind). I'm closing in on declaring this for beta code,
most of the infrastruture is in place by now.
As usual USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!, this is still alpha level code.
This driver can hose your disk real bad if anything goes wrong, but
now you have been warned :)
But please tell me how it works for you!
Enjoy!

This whole idea isn't going to work until somebody makes the bus/kld
code smarter. The idea here is to change the module's internal name
from "foo" to "if_foo" so that ifconfig can tell a network driver from
a non-network one. However doing this doesn't work correctly no matter
how you slice it. For everything to work, you have to change the name
in both the driver_t struct and the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration. The
problems are:
- If you change the name in both places, then the kernel thinks that
the device's name is now "if_foo", so you get things like:
if_foo0: <FOO ethernet> irq foo at device foo on pcifoo
if_foo0: Ethernet address: foo:foo:foo:foo:foo:foo
This is bogus. Now the device name doesn't agree with the logical
interface name. There's no reason for this, and it violates the
principle of least astonishment.
- If you leave the name in the driver_t struct as "foo" and only
change the names in the DRIVER_MODULE() declaration to "if_foo" then
attaching drivers to child devices doesn't work because the names don't
agree. This breaks miibus: drivers that need to have miibuses and PHY
drivers attached never get them.
In other words: damned if you do, damned if you don't.
This needs to be thought through some more. Since the drivers that
use miibus are broken, I have to change these all back in order to
make them work again. Yes this will stop ifconfig from being able
to demand load driver modules. On the whole, I'd rather have that
than having the drivers not work at all.
usually cleared by a successful selection, but there is no guarantee
that a future successful selection will ever occur (e.g. empty bus).
The driver never looks at SELINGO, but the busy LED does, so this
change has the cosmetic effect of fixing the rare instance where the
busy LED was left on, confusing the user.

We also increase the block size to at least 8K for efficiency.

- Remove sc_get_scr_stat(). It's not necessary anymore.
- Call ttymalloc() to allocate the struct tty for each vty, rather than
statically declaring an array of struct tty. We still need a statically
allocated struct tty for the first vty which is used for the kernel
console I/O, though.
- Likewise, call ttymalloc() for /dev/sysmouse and /dev/consolectl.
- Delete unnecessary test on the pointer struct tty *tp in some functions.
- Delete unused code in scmouse.c.

size != 512 that are configured without a label. The bug should only
have effected swap-backed VN mounts without a label.
Add several major features to VN. In the kernel we add a swap
pre-reservation capability, which can be used to guarentee seek
consistency for swap-backed VN nodes. This also incidently allows
a swap-backed VN filesystem to be recovered after a crash in some
cases (if the same swap blocks happen to be reserved).
We also add a number of new options to vnconfig which do the work
of pre-zeroing or creating/truncating/extending a file which greatly
simplifies using VN in a file-backed configuration.
Add FreeBSD CVS label to sys/sys/vnioctl.h, as well as a new ioctl
flag for the swap pre-reservation feature.
