help:Makefile template for device drivers with multiple directories

2006-06-08 Thread hongz
Hi guys: Need your helps again! The following is a Makefile template for a device driver in FreeBSD. But when my driver source codes locate in multiple directories (such as under osd/, engine/, and cam/), how to write the Makefile? I have tried but still can not get through this, please give me

ppc(4) as module

2006-06-08 Thread Kostik Belousov
Is there a reason for ppc(4) being only statically compiled in kernel driver ? It looks like it is trivial to modularize it. Some time ago I saw the thread about the ppc/acpi related troubles, that resolves into the acpi being the module, and ppc compiled into the kernel. I propose to make the p

Someone with knowledge in VM/fork (and Copy on Write) needed

2006-06-08 Thread Alexander Leidinger
Hi, Roman (and I) need someone who is able to explain fork() and VM stuff. The problem is that the linux clone() syscall is supposed to do COW of the stack in some cases (if the child_stack argument is NULL it has to COW the thread stack, making a copy immediately is maybe ok too as a workaround)

PCI Express graphics reliability/functionality in 6.1?

2006-06-08 Thread Clifton Royston
I'm soon to build myself a new AMD X2 workstation system on which I plan to multiboot various operating systems including FreeBSD, a couple Linux distros and probably Windows XP Pro, and probably also run virtualization software (VMWare and/or Xen.) I'm hoping for it to last me through a few year
