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

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

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	audio driver
56
57    o	use MI driver
58
59	-   use MI ncr53c9x driver instead of home grown asc
60
61	-   use MI bha driver instead of home grown btl
62
63	-   make sonic driver MI, and share it with mac68k, newsmips/apbus
64
65	-   make fd driver MI, and share it with i386
66	    (contact christos about MI fd driver)
67
68	-   make pccons MI, and share it with i386,
69	    or simply eliminate pccons
70
71	-   LKM
72
73    o	ARC boot device name -> NetBSD root device conversion
74
75    o	and missing MI devices
76		ses?, lkm, vcoda, ...

78    o	way to specify serial console
79
80    o resolve "XXX"
