Revert to using ointhand2_t rather than inthand2_t. Use unwise casts
to pass pointers as ints in i386 only code. This will be fixed in the
future as the transition to newbus completes.
This is a major fixup of unionfs. At least 30 serious bugs have been
fixed (many due to changing semantics in other parts of the kernel and not
the original author's fault), including one critical one: unionfs could
cause UFS corruption in the fronting store due to calling VOP_OPEN for
writing without turning on vmio for the UFS vnode.
Most of the bugs were related to semantics changes in VOP calls, lock
ordering problems (causing deadlocks), improper handling of a read-only
backing store (such as an NFS mount), improper referencing and locking
of vnodes, not using real struct locks for vnode locking, not using
recursive locks when accessing the fronting store, and things like that.
New functionality has been added: unionfs now has mmap() support, but
only partially tested, and rename has been enhanced considerably.
There are still some things that unionfs cannot do. You cannot
rename a directory without confusing unionfs, and there are issues
with softlinks, hardlinks, and special files. unionfs mostly doesn't
understand them (and never did).
There are probably still panic situations, but hopefully no where near
as many as before this commit.
The unionfs in this commit has been tested overlayed on /usr/src
(backing /usr/src being a read-only NFS mount, fronting /usr/src being
a local filesystem). kernel builds have been tested, buildworld is
undergoing testing. More testing is necessary.
Update the Starfire driver comments and man page to include the URL of
the AIC-6915 Programmer's Manual which I finally found online at Adaptec's
site.
Update this to be able to output ASSERT_VOP_(UN)LOCKED() based on the
lock specifications in kern/vnode_if.src. At present, this do not
distinguish between exclusive and shared locks, and the kernel is so full
of bugs in this area that running with auto-generation of assertions
enabled makes DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS totally useless for anybody that has used it
for anything prior to outputting automated assertions. Due to this, I made
vnode_if.sh only output locking assertions if you have the environment
variable DEBUG_ALL_VFS_LOCKS set to "YES". In order to actually use the
assertions, you need to also add "options DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS" to your kernel
config file.
Move the declaration of panic() from sys/systm.h to sys/param.h.
Rationale: Wider access, so we can add assertions to header files.
panicstr is still in sys/systm.h
- 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.
Update the dictionary to contain all of the words in
/usr/share/dict/{eign,web2,propernames}. Most of the additions are
proper names, but the word 'all' is a notable exception.
This patch clears the way for removing a number of tty related
fields in struct cdevsw:
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
d_params and d_maxio Real Soon Now.
The changes in this patch consist of:
initialize dev->si_tty in *_open()
initialize tty->t_stop
remove devtotty functions
rename ttpoll to ttypoll
a few adjustments to these changes in the generic code
a bump of __FreeBSD_version
add a couple of FreeBSD tags
o Remove all of the objformat logic, it's never coming back.
o Simplify getpackagesite(), it comes back in full glory when we branch
again. It's still needed however to get the i386 or alpha directory.

Fix timeout handeling and add retry counts.
Add HPT366 probe message (but no real support yet),
Add CDR support for several diffenrent blocktypes, also close
disk as a multisession CD.
The motive behind this is to delay rc.{arch} as long as possible,
as it loads the screensaver, which kills the splash screen.
But at the same time, it can't be done after rc.devfs, as
that might depend on arch specific actions. rc.local and local.startup
also should come after these, and securelevel must be last of all.
- Supported 1.23MB FD again.
- Supported all formats that IBM-PC's driver (isa/fd.c) supports.
- Changed the device minor numbers. They sync in IBM-PC's driver.
Cleanup CCD quite a bit, including adding clarifying comments.
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.
Fix ccdiodone code. The code was using cbp->cb_buf.b_bcount to
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.
As suggested by phk, unconditionalize BPF support in these drivers. Since
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.
