uwe | x86: Reserve device major for VirtualBox Guest Additions
|

nia | Remove uscanner(4) driver
This exists for compatibility with a Linux interface which was apparently
deprecated in Linux 2.6. There are various mailing list threads going
back to 2004 where the usefulness of this driver is discussed, but
the conclusion is that scanner software has all moved to using ugen(4)
instead, and enabling this driver will not help you scan things.

maya | remove urio(4), a driver for the Rio500 MP3 player.
At this point it is highly unlikely this 1999 device still has users,
but it still comes up in the context of maxv's USB-fuzzing (and any device
could pretend to be a urio(4)), so it's best to get rid of it.
Renamed all major entries to obsolete, as was done in previous removals.
This still requires an update to sanitizers, but they're located in
"external", perhaps it should be first committed upstream?
Proposed on tech-kern a month ago.

dholland | branches: 1.51.6;
Systematize handling of removed drivers.
- Every driver that was removed and whose number hasn't already been
reused is now listed with a commented-out "obsolete" line.
- The format of these has been systematized. Future format changes can
probably be safely done with a script.
- This does not include a few cases of assignments that only lasted a
couple days, or stuff from before major reorgs. Some of these may
be included nonetheless, because there was a lot of ground to cover
and therefore not a lot of time to dig into history in detail.
Note that the obsolete listings do not mean the major numbers can
never be reused; that's up to portmasters and/or core. It does mean
that they won't be reused by accident, however, which in some cases
(depending on the driver, how widely used it was, its family of device
nodes, their default permissions, etc.) can be quite dangerous.
Note that some of the things now explicitly listed as obsolete are
really ancient history. My scan went back as far as when the majors
files were added. (But not before that.)

dholland | Restore satlink's majors entries commented out and marked obsolete.
Otherwise they might accidentally get reused later and cause a
security problem.
|

maxv | Remove the satlink driver. It was disabled everywhere, had no man page and
no use either. Spotted by thorpej in PR/21345, ok christos.
|
| 1.48 |
| 19-Dec-2018 |
maxv | Remove compat_svr4 and compat_svr4_32, as discussed on tech-kern@ recently,
but also as discussed several times in the past.
|
| 1.47 |
| 23-Sep-2018 |
maxv | Remove ISDN from the kernel. It has remained unmaintained for a long time,
is of poor quality, and is now an obstacle to MP-ification. It was removed
ten years ago from FreeBSD for the same reason.
This retires a big user of the mbuf API, and will ease maintenance of the
kernel.

* We now use hash tables instead of a list to store the in kernel
fingerprints.
* Fingerprint methods handling has been made more flexible, it is now
even simpler to add new methods.
* the loader no longer passes in magic numbers representing the
fingerprint method so veriexecctl is not longer kernel specific.
* fingerprint methods can be tailored out using options in the kernel
config file.
* more fingerprint methods added - rmd160, sha256/384/512
* veriexecctl can now report the fingerprint methods supported by the
running kernel.
* regularised the naming of some portions of veriexec.

gehenna | branches: 1.2.2;
Merge the gehenna-devsw branch into the trunk.
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
