I think I mis-directed this earlier. I am running 4.0-current SMP as of Apr 21.
LINT has two versions of values for ports. One is in quotes and the other is not. For example, device npx0 at nexus? port IO_NPX iosiz 0x0 flags 0x0 irq 13 device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty flags 0x10 irq 4 The definition of IO_NPX and IO_COM1 have the same form in sys/isa/isareg.h, sys/i386/isa/isa.h, etc. Some time back, someone posted guidance like "if it contains letters and numbers, quote it, otherwise don't." Which form should be used for these values? LINT shows ppc0 as a device and 'man ppc' says it is a controller. I believe earlier versions of LINT had ppc as a controller. Which is correct? sio1 is not in LINT, but it is in GENERIC. Some devices like fd have both fd0 and fd1. Since two serial ports is common should LINT have sio1? Newer machines are more likely to have two serial ports than two floppy drives. tomdean To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
