the XENIX version is packed, and two bytes smaller than ours. So, define
the structure, and have it packed. I used the __attribte__((packed))
modifier for this; I could also have surrounded the struct definition with
#pragma pack(2) -- but that would have meant making ibcs2_timeb's definition
outside the function. This may need to be revisited if we ever want to
compile with a compiler other than gcc. (I also used 'unsigned long'
instead of 'time_t' because I am writing to match an external specification
-- and the definition of time_t could change.)

This eliminates a lot of #ifdef SMP type code. Things like _curproc reside
in a data page that is unique on each cpu, eliminating the expensive macros
like: #define curproc (SMPcurproc[cpunumber()])
There are some unresolved bootstrap and address space sharing issues at
present, but Steve is waiting on this for other work. There is still some
strictly temporary code present that isn't exactly pretty.
This is part of a larger change that has run into some bumps, this part is
standalone so it should be safe. The temporary code goes away when the
full idle cpu support is finished.

The kernel with USERCONFIG_BOOT and VISUAL_USERCONFIG option presents
the user the kernel configuration menu upon boot.
The user can navigate the menu with cursor keys. I think it would be
nice if the user can navigate and select a menu item with regular keys
as well, so that the user who is using a serial console which is not
so capable of esc sequences still can choose a menu item.
With the following patch we can select an item by typing an item
number, 1, 2, or 3, or mnemonic `s' to skip UserConfig, 'v' to enter
the visual mode, and `c' to start the CLI mode. `p', `u', `n', and `d'
will move cursor up and down.

This is rather strange assumption. If there is no dispaly adapter, the

In this patch, scinit() is split into two parts; the first part is
now called scvidprobe() which will detect the presence of video card
at the CGA or MONO buffer address and returns TRUE if found. It is
called during sccnprobe() and scprobe(). Both will fail if no video
card is found.
The second part, whose name stays the same as before, scinit(), is
called from sccninit() and scattach() to complete initialization of
the found video card.
The keyboard probe code is moved from scprobe() to sckbdprobe();
scprobe() now calls scvidprobe() and sckbdprobe() to carry out device
probe. (This is rather a cosmetic change, but it sure makes the code
look better organized.)

- Added support for "dual" internal/serial consoles (-D flag). If -D is set,
then all i/o from the boot blocks is to and from both the internal console
and the serial console. -D has no effect on the kernel (-h decides the
kernel serial console as usual). -D should normally be set in /boot.config.
- Get help messages from /boot.help. You should copy boot.help from the
biosboot directory to the root directory on the boot drive when you
install new boot blocks.
- New, less invasive keyboard probe. Enable keyboard probe dynamically (-P
flag). Should probably never be used (use -h instead).
- Fixed/improved initialization from boot.config. It didn't interact correctly
with the NAMEBLOCK option, and the initialization of the drive/unit/partition
didn't stick when a non-default kernel name was entered.
- Don't reset or forget the default drive/unit/... or kernel name so often.
- Set the default kernel name to something unbootable after `?'.
- Display the defaults better.
- Removed PROBE_KEYBOARD_LOCK option (use -h instead).,
- Removed BOOT_FORCE_COMCONSOLE option (use device flag 0x20 instead).
- Removed -a (RB_HALT) flag. This flag is only used for reboots.

The extra state is kept in the pcb, and handled much like the npx state,
with similar deficiencies (the state is not preserved across signal
handlers, and error handling loses state).

rather than inlines. These are compiled with -fomit-frame-pointer and
work out pretty close to the original routines, but it might be a fraction
slower. The reason for doing this is to prevent the SWI_* and HWI_* values
from being compiled into drivers and lkms etc which is one of the things
that prevents the same lkm from being used on both SMP and UP kernels.
This gives us a lot more scope for experimenting with the splxxx

Brought in changes sent to me in late 1995 by Rich Murphey.
I cleaned up a few things and am currently running these under
2.2-970205-GAMMA.
The changes deal with software debouncing apparently necessary on
todays faster hardware, and also some problems with the use of the -Select

alternative.
Changes to pmap.c for lapic_t lapic && ioapic_t ioapic pointers,
currently equal to apic_base && io_apic_base, will stand alone with the

apic.h has defines like:
#define lapic__id lapic->id
Once private pages and "known virtual addr" mapping of the APICs is
ready all 'lapic__XXX' will be changed to 'lapic.XXX', and the defines
will be removed.
Changes to smp.h for lapic_t lapic && ioapic_t ioapic pointers,
currently equal to apic_base && io_apic_base, will stand alone with the
