ACPI tables into kernel memory and attach ACPI and HPET timers currently.
In order to test this code, enabling the devices in GENERIC as well as
the ACPI_ENABLE option is needed. This code does not do any thermal
control yet, so this should be done with care depending on the platform.
In the tree so more people can contribute to making this more fully
featured.
Ok niklas@ grange@ tedu@
Main features:
- MI hil drivers, allowing live plug/unplug of devices, and the keyboard
does not need to be at id 1 anymore.
- SGC bus support on 4xx models. SGC frame buffers are supported too, but
not as console, though you can use them as a regular glass terminal if
you run a getty on ttyC0. Currently not compiled-in, awaiting for an sti(4)
fix to be commited.
- HP-UX compatibility interfaces are removed. grfinfo and hilinfo are removed.
X11 support is currently broken by these changes; X.org X11R6 support will
be available very soon.
Tested on hyperion and 4 different flavours of catseye/topcat/kathmandu; other,
older frame buffers (davinci, gatorbox and renaissance) could not been tested
but should work; please report any regression.
- refer to the section 4 manual page for every device target, whenever
possible
- repair a few minor quoting errors
- repair a few sorting errors
- fix a few device descriptions (ideally they would be synched with the
.Nd line of their manpages, but we are not there... yet)
- minor mdoc fixes
Thanks to jmc@ for review and a lot of constructive criticism.
ioctl(2), an unprivileged process may allocate a pty and have its owner
and mode set appropriately. This means that programs such as xterm and
screen no longer need to be setuid. Programs using the openpty()
function require zero changes and will "just work".
Designed by beck@ and deraadt@; changes by beck@ with cleanup (and
a rewrite of the vnode bits) by art@ and tweaks/bugfixes by me.
Tested by many.
