Removed bogus LARGMEM code and option. The code paniced when
biosextmem > 65536, but biosextmem is a 16-bit quantity so it is
guaranteed to be < 65536. Related cruft for biosbasemem was
mostly cleaned up in rev.1.26.
Fixed spelling of new SC_KBD_PROBE_WORKS option in options.i386.
It worked because it is spelled correctly in LINT.
Added old obscure syscons options MAXCONS, SLOW_VGA and XT_KEYBOARD.
This file should be sorted both alphabetically and on the module
name by using a consistent prefix for each module, but there is no
consistency in the old options. E.g., MAXCONS is spelled PCVT_NSCREENS
for pcvt.
Rather than adding more gunk here, clean some of it up:
devread() had a bogus interface, cleaned up.
Bread() did an unneeded bcopy(), don't.
Saves 80 bytes and some time.
Remove the code which has restart looking at the modtime. That's just
moronic! We don't care about the time in restart mode, only the size.
It's *mirror* mode which cares about modtimes.

Argh! there's no need for moused to be setuid-root! Now that it
works from startup, and works with XFree86 via /dev/sysmouse, it should
be started at boot and left running.

Hack workaround XFree86 switching failure when used with /dev/sysmouse
and xdm, possibly in general.
What was happening was that the server was doing a tcsetattr(.. TCSADRAIN)
on the mouse fd after a write. Since /dev/sysmouse had a null t_oproc,
the drain failed with EIO. Somehow this spammed XFree86 (!@&^#%*& binary
release!!), and the driver was left in a bogus state (ie: switch_in_progress
permanently TRUE).
The simplest way out was to implement a dummy scmousestart() routine to
accept any characters from the tty system and toss them into the void.
It would probably be more correct to intercept scwrite()'s to the mouse
device, but that's executed for every single write to the screen.
Supplying a start routine to eat the characters is only executed for the
mouse port during startup/shutdown, so it should be faster.
Backed out last change. It depends on the future change of adding
-I- to CFLAGS. <sb.h> must currently be used to give the version
of sb.h in the current directory, while "sb.h" in the buggy version
gave the (wrong) version in the source directory. Searching in the
source directory first is normal, but is the reverse of the order
suggested by the 4.4Lite2 #include style. -I- will remove the
ambiguities.

gut and overhaul moused, it was simply not working for me on any mouse
I could find. This change does the following:
- s/usage()/break;/ in handling the -s switch.
- use err/warn instead of fprintf(stderr, ... strerror()); exit(1);
- implement Hitachi PUMA HitTablet support from the XFree86 code,
whatever the hell that is. :-)
- correctly implement baud rate setting, too much was cut from the
XFree86 code, the critical parts were a sweep over all likely
mouse powerup baud rates to switch it to the reqested rate.
- logitech support was busted (at least on mine, which is autosensing
and runs in either mmseries or logitech mode depending on the handshake
code at startup. Among other things, you talk to it at 1200, then
switch to the target baud later.
Some remaining problems.. samplerate setting is missing, but I've not
found where this is meant to be set yet. I presume this is resolution
setting of some kind.

Import the FSF release of bison-1.25 onto the vendor branch.
In case you're wondering, the gcc-2.7.2.1 import uses this to generate
code. The size of the generated code is bigger than the entire bison
release, making this a saving. The bison doc is pretty good apparently.

Change the last -Wall cleanup so that the tputs declaration doesn't
conflict with the other declarations in other files. tputs() is
traditionally declared to return int, not void. curses.h has it as int.
ncurses has int and actually sets the return value. This problem has
been causing the ircII port to not compile.
(I've only minimally tested this, I do not have libtermcap on my systems)
No code changes what so ever, but added about 150 lines of comments
Sorry if this makes it harder to merge in lite2 stuff but hey..
At least I can figure out what is going on whenever I end up going through those
files again..
do we have a policy regarding commenting existing code?
The whole issue of not support VOP_LOCK for VBLK devices should be
rethought. This fixes YET another problem with unmounting filesystems.
The root cause is not fixed here, but at least the problem has gone
away.

Change strcpy() to strncpy() in several places, and give gethostname()
the real buffer size. Note that the strncpy(domain, ...) doesn't need to
be a strncpy(), since it is copying from itself to itself, but belts

Make syscons replicate a mousesystems mouse on minor 128..
This enables other consumers of the mouse, to get it info via
moused/syscons.
In order to use it run moused (from sysconfig), and then tell
your Xserver that it should use /dev/sysmouse (mknod sysmouse c 12 128)
and it a mousesystems mouse. Everybody will be happy then :)
Remember that moused still needs to know what kind of mouse you
have..
Addition of page coloring support. Various levels of coloring are afforded.
The default level works with minimal overhead, but one can also enable
full, efficient use of a 512K cache. (Parameters can be generated
to support arbitrary cache sizes also.)
. make vgrind 8-bit clean; note that it still implicitly assumes
ISO-8859-1, since the characters are simply being passed on to
groff
. introduce an option to override the silly default to `psroff' as

. document the new option
