Changes in majors.hpcmips http://nxr.netbsd.org/rss/src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/majors.hpcmips en Copyright 2005 Java 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. /src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/majors.hpcmips - 1.36 Tue Jun 29 10:22:35 UTC 2021 nia branches: 1.35.8; mark nsmb major obsolete /src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/majors.hpcmips - 1.35 Sat Apr 04 16:06:13 UTC 2020 jdolecek 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. /src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/majors.hpcmips - 1.34 Wed Jan 29 18:39:02 UTC 2020 maya branches: 1.33.6; 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.) /src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/majors.hpcmips - 1.33 Mon Jan 28 02:28:58 UTC 2019 dholland 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. /src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/majors.hpcmips - 1.32 Sun Sep 23 09:21:02 UTC 2018 maxv branches: 1.31.52; 1.31.54; dependant -> dependent /src/sys/arch/hpcmips/conf/majors.hpcmips - 1.31 Thu Jun 30 20:09:31 UTC 2011 wiz Reserve an MI major for coming flash(4). hpcmips defines one in MD majors, but it's not listed in etc/etc.hpcmips/MAKEDEV.conf, so I assume actual files are never created in users' filesystems.
