MFC 196403: Temporarily revert the new-bus locking for 8.0 release.

Make the newbus subsystem Giant free by adding the new newbus sxlock.

2009-08-02T14:28:40Z

The newbus lock is responsible for protecting newbus internIal structures, device states and devclass flags. It is necessary to hold it when all such datas are accessed. For the other operations, softc locking should ensure enough protection to avoid races. Newbus lock is automatically held when virtual operations on the device and bus are invoked when loading the driver or when the suspend/resume take place. For other 'spourious' operations trying to access/modify the newbus topology, newbus lock needs to be automatically acquired and dropped. For the moment Giant is also acquired in some key point (modules subsystem) in order to avoid problems before the 8.0 release as module handlers could make assumptions about it. This Giant locking should go just after the release happens. Please keep in mind that the public interface can be expanded in order to provide more support, if there are really necessities at some point and also some bugs could arise as long as the patch needs a bit of further testing. Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to reflect the newbus lock introduction. Reviewed by: ed, hps, jhb, imp, mav, scottl No answer by: ariff, thompsa, yongari Tested by: pho, G.

Replace all calls to minor() with dev2unit().

2008-09-27T08:51:18Z

After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing. Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere. This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect more than 256 pieces of the same hardware. Reviewed by: kib

Normalize a significant number of kernel malloc type names:

2005-10-31T15:41:29Z

- Prefer '_' to ' ', as it results in more easily parsed results in memory monitoring tools such as vmstat. - Remove punctuation that is incompatible with using memory type names as file names, such as '/' characters. - Disambiguate some collisions by adding subsystem prefixes to some memory types. - Generally prefer lower case to upper case. - If the same type is defined in multiple architecture directories, attempt to use the same name in additional cases. Not all instances were caught in this change, so more work is required to finish this conversion. Similar changes are required for UMA zone names.
