Changes in DEVNAMES

Changes in DEVNAMES http://nxr.netbsd.org/rss/src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES en Copyright 2005 Java Add ncm(4) a driver for USB Network Control Model Seen on my Google Pixel 8, which implements ncm instead of urndis. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.332 Mon Jan 20 13:54:55 UTC 2025 maya branches: 1.331.16; 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/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.331 Tue Jun 29 10:22:33 UTC 2021 nia branches: 1.330.4; add rge /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.330 Mon Mar 01 18:18:39 UTC 2021 jakllsch branches: 1.329.2; Add ixl and iavf /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.329 Wed Sep 09 05:23:26 UTC 2020 yamaguchi Remove uyap, USB YAP phone firmware loader. And the associated ezload EZ-USB code, which is only used by uyap. It could theoretically be used by other drivers, but none of them are in tree. I suspect that this device isn't in use, as phone technology has improved a lot since 2001 when uyap(4) was added to the tree. Proposed with no objections on netbsd-users on 13 April 2020 /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.328 Sat May 16 13:46:12 UTC 2020 maya Retire azalia(4). /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.327 Sun Feb 09 16:06:18 UTC 2020 jmcneill Remove uyurex(4). This is a driver for a "nonsense machine" made by the art group Maywa-Denki in 2008. It was disabled by default. Unfortunately even so it draws development attention (flaws found in the code, MP-ification needs) and it is best not to continue to maintain this driver. Proposed without objections on tech-kern. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.326 Fri Jan 17 15:00:20 UTC 2020 maya branches: 1.325.2; Port SMSC LAN87xx 10/100 Ethernet PHY driver from FreeBSD with some cleanup and IFM_NONE support. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.325 Fri Nov 01 02:53:23 UTC 2019 msaitoh Add jmphy(4) from OpenBSD. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.324 Wed Oct 30 00:06:26 UTC 2019 msaitoh Add support for Nuvoton NCT5104D GPIO chips, as found on PC Engines APU systems. From Andrew Doran in PR kern/54648. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.323 Fri Oct 25 17:39:56 UTC 2019 martin Add support IC Plus IP1000* PHYs. PR/kern 42314 first reported by Tomokazu HARADA and patch provided by Andrius V. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.322 Mon Oct 07 11:53:40 UTC 2019 msaitoh branches: 1.321.2; Merge isaki-audio2 branch, the overhaul of audio subsystem. - Interrupt-oriented system rather than thread-oriented. - Improve stability, quality and performance. - Split playback and record cleanly. Improve halfduplex support. - Many bugs are fixed including deadlocks, resource leaks, abuses, etc. - Simplify audio filter mechanism. The encoding/channels/frequency conversions are completely handled in the upper layer. So the hard- ware driver only converts its hardware encoding (if necessary). - audio_hw_if changes: - Obsoletes query_encoding and add query_format instead. - Obsoletes set_params and add set_format instead. - Remove drain, setfd, mappage. - The call sequences are changed. - ioctl AUDIO_GETFD/SETFD, AUDIO_GETCHAN/SETCHAN are obsoleted. - ioctl AUDIO_{QUERY,GET,SET}FORMAT are introduced. - cleanup config attributes: au*conv and mulaw. - All hardware drivers should follow it (I've done as much as possible). Some file paths are changed: - dev/audio.c -> dev/audio/audio.c (rewritten) - dev/audiovar.h -> dev/audio/audiovar.h - dev/audio_dai.h -> dev/audio/audio_dai.h - dev/audio_if.h -> dev/audio/audio_if.h - dev/audiobell.c -> dev/audio/audiobell.c - dev/audiobellvar.h -> dev/audio/audiobellvar.h - dev/mulaw.[ch] -> dev/audio/mulaw.[ch] + dev/audio/alaw.c /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.321 Wed May 08 13:40:17 UTC 2019 isaki branches: 1.320.2; Remove the satlink driver. It was disabled everywhere, had no man page and no use either. Spotted by thorpej in PR/21345, ok christos. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.320 Sun Jan 27 08:53:30 UTC 2019 maxv Retire the LMC driver, and its associated lmcconfig tool. LMC has been mentioned repeatedly as a non-MP-safe driver that is hard to maintain, and no one is taking care of it. LMC was removed from OpenBSD three years ago, and from FreeBSD a few months ago. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.319 Wed Dec 12 07:04:05 UTC 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. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.318 Sun Sep 23 09:21:03 UTC 2018 maxv Remove isic(4). It is part of ISDN, which we are now retiring. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.317 Sat Sep 22 16:22:23 UTC 2018 maxv Remove iwic(4). It is part of ISDN, which we are now retiring. This driver was still marked as experimental (its man page dates back to 2002). /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.316 Sat Sep 22 00:41:00 UTC 2018 maxv Remove ifpci(4). It is part of ISDN, which we are retiring. /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.315 Sat Sep 22 00:19:11 UTC 2018 maxv Remove iavc(4). /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.314 Fri Sep 21 18:38:25 UTC 2018 maxv Remove daic(4), it has never been functional. ok martin@ /src/sys/dev/DEVNAMES - 1.313 Wed Sep 19 13:58:27 UTC 2018 maxv
