2008-06-26First pass at removing clauses 3 and 4 from NetBSD licenses.Ray Lai
Not sure what's more surprising: how long it took for NetBSD to catch up to the rest of the BSDs (including UCB), or the amount of code that NetBSD has claimed for itself without attributing to the actual authors. OK deraadt@

2008-06-09Define a new flag, UVM_FLAG_HOLE, for uvm_map to create a vm_map_entry ofMiod Vallat
a new etype, UVM_ET_HOLE, meaning it has no backend. UVM_ET_HOLE entries (which should be created as UVM_PROT_NONE and with UVM_FLAG_NOMERGE and UVM_FLAG_HOLE) are skipped in uvm_unmap_remove(), so that pmap_{k,}remove() is not called on the entry. This is intended to save time, and behave better, on pmaps with MMU holes at process exit time. ok art@, kettenis@ provided feedback as well.

in the range 0 <= x < upper_bound Please use this new API instead of "arc4random() % upper_bound", as it avoids the "modulo bias" that favours small results when upper_bound is not a power of two. feedback deraadt@ mcbride@; ok deraadt@

2007-11-17make it clear in the code and in the man page that the rate2plcp andDamien Bergamini
plcp2rate functions use plcp codes in most-significant-bit-first format (R4-R1). some drivers like wpi(4) and iwn(4) want plcp codes in lsb-first format so they can't use those functions. also the IEEE standard uses R1-R4 notation so this can be a bit confusing for those refering to it. use u_int8_t for plcp code and rate instead of int.
2007-11-14Add ieee80211_rate2plcp() and ieee80211_plcp2rate() functions, whichMarcus Glocker
convert the PLCP header signal field to a rate value and vice versa. This implementation has been discussed with Damien and doesn't change any existing net80211 structures. ok damien@
2007-11-03Revert last commit which added ieee80211_rate2plcp() andMarcus Glocker
ieee80211_plcp2rate() because I've got a late feedback from Damien that he dislike the implementation method a lot.

2007-09-14sleep(9) was removed aeons ago according to miod, so remove referencesMichael Knudsen
to it. Because man pages are named after functions (at least they should be) and sleep(9) doesn't exist anymore, sleep.9 is renamed to tsleep.9. Input and reminders from jmc and ratchov.
2007-09-13Update manpage to reflect new return code from function.Tobias Weingartner
Thanks to mk@ for reminding me.
2007-09-10Introduce a md pmap hook, pmap_remove_holes(), which is supposed to markMiod Vallat
the holes a MMU may have from a given vm_map. This will be automagically invoked for newly created vmspaces. On platforms with MMU holes (e.g. sun4, sun4c and vax), this prevents mmap(2) hints which would end up being in the hole to be accepted as valid, causing unexpected signals when the process tries to access the hole (since pmap can not fill the hole anyway). Unfortunately, the logic mmap() uses to pick a valid address for anonymous mappings needs work, as it will only try to find an address higher than the hint, which causes all mmap() with a hint in the hole to fail on vax. This will be improved later.
