"Next Generation" kernel configuration?

2004-07-20 Thread Conrad J. Sabatier
Just musing on an idea here: I've been thinking for a while now about trying to write a tool to make kernel configuration easier, sort of a "make config" (as in ports) for the kernel, similar to what's available on some of the Linux distros. Ideally, such a tool would be capable of automatically

How to clean out old files after 'make world'?

2004-07-20 Thread Stas D . Myasnikov
Hello! While doing 'make world' I used make.conf with couple on 'NO_*=yes', e.g. NO_KERBEROS=yes (I don't need Kerberos on my home computer). But after rebuilding world and install I saw the old binaries, configs, etc. of Kerberos and other parts of base that I didn't build. I had thought tha

xpt_schedule() and start interface context question.

2004-07-20 Thread Joseph M Link
Hello, I have been looking at the targ driver written by Nate Lawson and Justin Gibbs. I am seeing some access of user memory outside of what is obviously user context (the call to copyin and cam_periph_mapmem() by way of the targstart() interface). I am wondering how xpt_schedule() works and
