classes and if a method is not found in a given class, its base classes are searched (in the order they were declared). This search is recursive, i.e. a method may be define in a base class of a base class. * Change the kobj method lookup algorithm to one which is SMP-safe. This relies only on the constraint that an observer of a sequence of writes of pointer-sized values will see exactly one of those values, not a mixture of two or more values. This assumption holds for all processors which FreeBSD supports. * Add locking to kobj class initialisation. * Add a simpler form of 'inheritance' for devclasses. Each devclass can have a parent devclass. Searches for drivers continue up the chain of devclasses until either a matching driver is found or a devclass is reached which has no parent. This can allow, for instance, pci drivers to match cardbus devices (assuming that cardbus declares pci as its parent devclass). * Increment __FreeBSD_version. This preserves the driver API entirely except for one minor feature used by the ISA compatibility shims. A workaround for ISA compatibility will be committed separately. The kobj and newbus ABI has changed - all modules must be recompiled. |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
