of mb_offset given the right sequence of 1 and 0 byte mbufs. This bug
was discovered by John Hood who also provided this fix - which is a
rewrite of the routine (and is easier to understand than the code I wrote).

This is the main files for the iBCS2 emulator. It can be use
compiled into the kernel by using:
options IBCS2
options COMPAT_IBCS2
or as a lkm module using:
options COMPAT_IBCS2
and then loading it via the ibcs2 script in /usr/bin
REMEMBER: this code is still experimental ! NO WARRENTY !

Fix endless loop in siopoll() for an event on a tty with no tty struct.
Don't generate unwanted interrupts in the serial console driver. These
bugs probably don't matter unless the tty struct is dynamically allocated.
Support polled mode. To use it, leave out the irq and the vector in
the config file. It only causes extra overhead for open polled ports.
The maximum usable speed is approximately 1000 bps for a 16450 and
15000 bps for a 16550.
Other cosmetic changes.
Bug fixed, that caused system hang on first interrupt on some motherboards.
New version of PCI bus configuration code, now supports dynamic interrupt
configuration (using BIOS supplied values).
NCR SCSI and DEC Ethernet driver patched to use this feature.
*** Remove PCI IRQ specifications from your kernel config file ! ***
"APM" macro.
machdep.c: Made the APM-descriptors unconditional.
Bruce: if these still conflict with your debugger, please put in a reservation
for your debugger. These three desc. can be anywhere, as long as they are
contiguous, so just move them as needed.
pmap.c: tons of unused vars zapped, various other warnings silenced.
trap.c: unused vars zapped.
vm_machdep.c: A wrong argument, which by chance did the right thing, was
corrected.
the first place was so that BPF could grok trailer packets. I've since
decided that this is a job for tcpdump to decipher (if at all). Also
fixed up checks for received packet length to better cope with ancient
starlan boards.

WARNING: might hide some bug below! I commit this to improve the stability
of 2.0.

I have been running a kernel with this change since October 4th; barring
unrelated network router troubles, the pitiful little machine has
completed several builds without any interaction from me, and continues
to chug along.
I re-read wd.c, and added appropriate printfs() to look for references
to dk_badsect[]. My changes should have printed something when dk_badsect[]
was referenced.
I got no output :-(
Thus, I'm forced to concluded that something else is examining some
spurious memory... which happened to be in dk_badsect[] of the disk structure
in wd.c. I can find no other explanation of why this unnecessary
initialization causes things to operate correctly.
On the premise that such an initialization isn't going to hurt anything,
I'm going to suggest it go into 2.0.
I'd like to thank everyone for there assistance, particularly David,
John and Bruce.
been relocated to run in the 64k segment at 0x10000 with the stack at
the top of this segment. This corrects the problems machines with 512K
base memory had booting.
2. startprog routing rewritten to convert the BOOTSEG ss to a KERNELSEG
ss, this eliminated the last of the >512K memory references. Additional
cleanup in here included a better way to copy the arguments to the
kernel stack.
3. Elimination of argv and esym cruft saved a few bytes.
4. Only need to truncate the head.a_entry to a meg boundary once intead
of every time we used it! [Saving more bytes].
5. Addition of version 1 bootinfo structure support. These boot blocks
pass the kernel name in to the kernel now.
6. Removed historical comments about MACH argv stuff, as it is useless now.
that and when it does it will be done differently.
2. The kernel now does a frame setup on entry so it ``looks'' like a
real function call. This will be needed by future boot code and
debuggers.
3. Clean up stack offsets to all be in decimal and use %ebp when copying
parameters in from the boot code.
4. Implement version 1 of the uniform boot code passing mechanism with
support for kernelname passing and nfs_diskless structure passing.
5. Document the 3 different ways the kernel is called depending on what code
is calling it.
