3To do list (not in any particular order).
4
5    o	Move the RO and WIRED attribute from the pte to the pv table.
6	This saves four instructions in the tlb miss handler.
7
8    o   Boot. Standalone boot program instead of booting the kernel directly?
9
10    o   Find out why bitmap load to S3-928 flashes screen. (X server)
11	Know why (enable linear mode). Need S3 info.
12
13    o   Can we have 32 double registers?
14
15    o	64bit kernel/userland
16
17    o	repair DeskStation and Algor support
18
19	-   64bit device physical address space for Tyne (see OpenBSD pmap.c)
20
21	-   requires bus_dma
22
23    o	source code structure is quite obsolete,
24	general clean up is needed as nisimura-san suggested.
25	especially:
26
27 	-   introduce struct platform and remove ugly ``switch (cputype)''
28	    in many places.
29
30	-   implement and use bus_dma
31
32	-   clean up bus_space implementation, remove inb/outb
33
34    o	fix kernel start address
35
36    o	merge new wscons
37
38    o	parse ARC BIOS configuration information and use it
39
40    o	omit __BROKEN_CONFIG_UNIT_USAGE
41
42    o	omit __SWAP_BROKEN in <mips/types.h>
43
44    o	fix implementation of DELAY(), clean up clock implementation
45
46    o	asc.c scsi clock/NCR53CF94 handling clean up
47
48    o	if_sn.c ether address handling clean up
49
50    o	com_lbus.c clock handling clean up
51
52    o	implement NCR 53c700(?) driver for NEC RISCserver 2200
53	based on amiga siop driver?
54
55    o	use MI driver
56
57	-   use MI ncr53c9x driver instead of home grown asc
58
59	-   use MI bha driver instead of home grown btl
60
61	-   make sonic driver MI, and share it with mac68k, newsmips/apbus
62
63	-   make fd driver MI, and share it with i386
64	    (contact christos about MI fd driver)
65
66	-   make pccons MI, and share it with i386,
67	    or simply eliminate pccons
68
69    o easy part
70
71	- ARC boot device name -> NetBSD root device conversion
72
73	- and missing MI devices
74		lkm, tun, vcoda, raidframe, ...
75
76	- way to specify serial console
77
78    o resolve "XXX"
79
80Lots of other things.....
