Previous revision of this file changed the "boot" commands to take
no arguments from the stack. This is only valid in the case where
a kernel has not been loaded. In that case, load_kernel_and_modules
will be called, which takes a list of arguments from the stack.
When a kernel is presently loaded, though, the list of arguments must
be passed to the boot command, which was the behaviour before the last
revision.
Fix things for both cases.

used by start to find the kernel. Fix this.
Also, boot would proceed immediately in the absence of a path as
argument. Check first if a kernel has already been loaded, and, if
not, fall back to load kernel&modules behavior.
Some further factorizing. I deem this code to be mostly readable by
now! :-)

The boot-conf and boot code had various bugs, and some of it was big,
ugly, unwieldy, and, sometimes, plain incorrect. I'm just about
completely replaced these ugly parts with something much more manageable.
Minor changes were made to the well-factorized parts of it, to accomodate
the new code.
Of note:
* make sure boot-conf has the exact same behavior wrt boot order
as start.
* Correct both boot and boot-conf so they'll work correctly when
compiled in, as they both had some bugs, minor and major.
* Remove all the crud from loader.4th back into support.4th, for
the first time since boot-conf was first improved. Hurray!
I'm fairly satisfied with the code at this time. Time to see about those
man pages...

as the kernel name. The one very unfortunate consequence is that kernel
as an absolute path loses the priority. It will only be tried after
/boot/${kernel}/${bootfile}. I'll see what can be done about it later.

Load the first of the following kernels to be found:
${kernel} if ${kernel} is an absolute path
/boot/${kernel}/${kernel}
/boot/${kernel}/${bootfile}
${kernel}/${kernel}
${kernel}/${bootfile}
${kernel}
${bootfile}
The last instance of ${kernel} and ${bootfile} will be treated as a
list of semicolon separated file names, and each will be tried in turn,
from left to right.
Also, for each filename loader(8) will try filename, filename.ko,
filename.gz, filename.ko.gz, in that order, but that's not related
to this code.
This resulted in a major reorganization of the code, and much of what
was accumulating on loader.4th was rightly transfered to support.4th.
The semantics of boot-conf and boot also changed. Both will try to load
a kernel the same as above.
After a kernel was loaded, the variable module_path may get changed. Such
change will happen if the kernel was found with a directory prefix. In
that case, the module path will be set to ${directory};${module_path}.
Next, the modules are loaded as usual.
This is intended so kernel="xyzzy" in /boot/loader.conf will load
/boot/xyzzy/kernel.ko, load system modules from /boot/xyzzy/, and
load third party modules from /boot/modules or /modules. If that doesn't
work, it's a bug.
Also, fix a breakage of "boot" which was recently introduced. Boot without
any arguments would fail. No longer. Also, boot will only unload/reload
if the first argument is a path. If no argument exists or the first
argument is a flag, boot will use whatever is already loaded. I hope this
is POLA. That behavior is markedly different from that of boot-conf, which
will always unload/reload.
The semantics introduced here are experimental. Even if the code works,
we might decide this is not the prefered behavior. If you feel so, send
your feedback. (Yeah, this belongs in a HEADS UP or something, but I've
been working for the past 16 hours on this stuff, so gimme a break.)

Add a warning in loader(8) that boot might be changed by loader.4th.

Now boot-conf can also receive parameters to be passed to the kernel
being booted. The syntax is the same as in the boot command, so one
boots /kernel.OLD in single-user mode by typing:
boot-conf /kernel.OLD -s instead of
boot-conf -s /kernel.OLD
The syntax still supports use of directory instead of file name, so
boot-conf kernel.OLD -s
may be used to boot /boot/kernel.OLD/kernel.ko in single-user mode.
Notice that if one passes a flag to boot-conf, it will override the
flags set in .conf files, but only for that invocation. If the user
aborts the countdown and tries again without passing any flags, the
flags set in .conf files will be used.
Some factorization was done in the process of enhancing boot-conf,
as it has been growing steadly as features are getting added, becoming
too big for a Forth word. It still could do with more factorization,
as a matter of fact.
Override the builtin "boot" with something based on boot-conf. It will
behave exactly like boot-conf, but booting directly instead of going
through autoboot.
Since we are now pairing kernel and module set in the same directory,
this change to boot makes sense.

load the modules needed according to a file relating module names
(actually, _file_ names, not really modules -- the dependency
stuff is not exported to loader's UI) to PnP IDs.
But it still lacks a number of desired features, and it's too crude
for my tastes. But since I don't have time to work on it, it might
be preferable to make it available to those who might. It's not
installed by default, much less loaded. In fact, it wouldn't even
had a copyright message (who? me? assume responsibility for _this_?),
if the cvs commit hadn't aborted for lack of $FreeBSD$, and I decided
to just cut&paste the stuff from elsewhere.

code into a more modular interface, with hidden vocabularies and
such. Remove the need to a lot of ugly initialization.
Also, add a few structure definitions, from stuff used on the C
part of loader. Some of this will disappear, and the crude structure
support will most likely be replaced by full-blown OOP support
already present on FICL, but not installed by default. But it was
getting increasingly inconvenient to keep this separate on my tree,
and I already lost lots of work once because of the hurdles, so
commit this.
Anyway, it makes support.4th more structured, and I'm not proceeding
with the work on it any time soon, unfortunately.

FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader, Revision 0.8
(root@outback.netplex.com.au, Tue Jun 13 23:26:49 PDT 2000)
Loader version 0.3+ required
Aborted!
start not found
Note that the 0.3+ message is from inside the arch-alpha block, not the
i386 block of code. And even then, 0.8 is higher than 0.3.
This prevents the rest of the loader.conf stuff working. :-/

Use Warner Losh's "hint" driver to decode ascii strings to fill the
resource table at boot time.
config(8) no longer generates an ioconf.c table - ie: the configuration
no longer has to be compiled into the kernel. You can reconfigure your
isa devices with the likes of this at loader(8) time:
set hint.ed.0.port=0x320
userconfig will be rewritten to use this style interface one day and will
move to /boot/userconfig.4th or something like that.
It is still possible to statically compile in a set of hints into a kernel
if you do not wish to use loader(8). See the "hints" directive in GENERIC
as an example.
All device wiring has been moved out of config(8). There is a set of
helper scripts (see i386/conf/gethints.pl, and the same for alpha and pc98)
that extract the 'at isa? port foo irq bar' from the old files and produces
a hints file. If you install this file as /boot/device.hints (and update
/boot/defaults/loader.conf - You can do a build/install in sys/boot) then
loader will load it automatically for you. You can also compile in the
hints directly with: hints "device.hints" as well.
There are a few things that I'm not too happy with yet. Under this scheme,
things like LINT would no longer be useful as "documentation" of settings.
I have renamed this file to 'NOTES' and stored the example hints strings
in it. However... this is not something that config(8) understands, so
there is a script that extracts the build-specific data from the
documentation file (NOTES) to produce a LINT that can be config'ed and
built. A stack of man4 pages will need updating. :-/
Also, since there is no longer a difference between 'device' and
'pseudo-device' I collapsed the two together, and the resulting 'device'
takes a 'number of units' for devices that still have it statically
allocated. eg: 'device fe 4' will compile the fe driver with NFE set
to 4. You can then set hints for 4 units (0 - 3). Also note that
'device fe0' will be interpreted as "zero units of 'fe'" which would be
bad, so there is a config warning for this. This is only needed for
old drivers that still have static limits on numbers of units.
All the statically limited drivers that I could find were marked.
Please exercise EXTREME CAUTION when transitioning!

Also, make boot-conf always unload first. There wasn't really any
point in not doing this, as the kernel _has_ to be loaded before
any other modules.

NICs. (Finally!) The PCMCIA, ISA and PCI varieties are all supported,
though only the ISA and PCI ones will work on the alpha for now.
PCCARD, ISA and PCI attachments are all provided. Also provided an
ancontrol(8) utility for configuring the NIC, man pages, and updated
pccard.conf.sample. ISA cards are supported in both ISA PnP and hard-wired
mode, although you must configure the kernel explicitly to support the
hardwired mode since you have to know the I/O address and port ahead
of time.
Special thanks to Doug Ambrisko for doing the initial newbus hackery
and getting it to work in infrastructure mode.

USB-EL1202A chipset. Between this and the other two drivers, we should
have support for pretty much every USB ethernet adapter on the market.
The only other USB chip that I know of is the SMC USB97C196, and right
now I don't know of any adapters that use it (including the ones made
by SMC :/ ).
Note that the CATC chip supports a nifty feature: read and write combining.
This allows multiple ethernet packets to be transfered in a single USB
bulk in/out transaction. However I'm again having trouble with large
bulk in transfers like I did with the ADMtek chip, which leads me to
believe that our USB stack needs some work before we can really make
use of this feature. When/if things improve, I intend to revisit the
aue and cue drivers. For now, I've lost enough sanity points.

Kawasaki LSI KL5KUSB101B chip, including the LinkSys USB10T, the
Entrega NET-USB-E45, the Peracom USB Ethernet Adapter, the 3Com
3c19250 and the ADS Technologies USB-10BT. This device is 10mbs
half-duplex only, so there's miibus or ifmedia support. This device
also requires firmware to be loaded into it, however KLSI allows
redistribution of the firmware images (I specifically asked about
this; they said it was ok).
Special thanks to Annelise Anderson for getting me in touch with
KLSI (eventually) and thanks to KLSI for providing the necessary
programming info.
Highlights:
- Add driver files to /sys/dev/usb
- update usbdevs and regenerate attendate files
- update usb_quirks.c
- Update HARDWARE.TXT and RELNOTES.TXT for i386 and alpha
- Update LINT, GENERIC and others for i386, alpha and pc98
- Add man page
- Add module
- Update sysinstall and userconfig.c

USB ethernet chip. Adapters that use this chip include the LinkSys
USB100TX. There are a few others, but I'm not certain of their
availability in the U.S. I used an ADMtek eval board for development.
Note that while the ADMtek chip is a 100Mbps device, you can't really
get 100Mbps speeds over USB. Regardless, this driver uses miibus to
allow speed and duplex mode selection as well as autonegotiation.
Building and kldloading the driver as a module is also supported.
Note that in order to make this driver work, I had to make what some
may consider an ugly hack to sys/dev/usb/usbdi.c. The usbd_transfer()
function will use tsleep() for synchronous transfers that don't complete
right away. This is a problem since there are times when we need to
do sync transfers from an interrupt context (i.e. when reading registers
from the MAC via the control endpoint), where tsleep() us a no-no.
My hack allows the driver to have the code poll for transfer completion
subject to the xfer->timeout timeout rather that calling tsleep().
This hack is controlled by a quirk entry and is only enabled for the
ADMtek device.
Now, I'm sure there are a few of you out there ready to jump on me
and suggest some other approach that doesn't involve a busy wait. The
only solution that might work is to handle the interrupts in a kernel
thread, where you may have something resembling a process context that
makes it okay to tsleep(). This is lovely, except we don't have any
mechanism like that now, and I'm not about to implement such a thing
myself since it's beyond the scope of driver development. (Translation:
I'll be damned if I know how to do it.) If FreeBSD ever aquires such
a mechanism, I'll be glad to revisit the driver to take advantage of
it. In the meantime, I settled for what I perceived to be the solution
that involved the least amount of code changes. In general, the hit
is pretty light.
Also note that my only USB test box has a UHCI controller: I haven't
I don't have a machine with an OHCI controller available.
Highlights:
- Updated usb_quirks.* to add UQ_NO_TSLEEP quirk for ADMtek part.
- Updated usbdevs and regenerated generated files
- Updated HARDWARE.TXT and RELNOTES.TXT files
- Updated sysinstall/device.c and userconfig.c
- Updated kernel configs -- device aue0 is commented out by default
- Updated /sys/conf/files
- Added new kld module directory
