Is there a reason that xhci isn't mentioned in NOTES in 8-stable?

2012-07-19 Thread Doug Barton
The xhci code in 8-stable works, but it's not mentioned in the NOTES
files in sys/conf, sys/i386/conf, or sys/amd64/conf. The module is
hooked up in sys/modules/usb/Makefile, and that's how I've been using it
so far. Is it not possible to compile this code into the kernel?

Yes, you can compile xhci into the kernel using device xhci. Not sure who's 
responsible for updating NOTES.

That would be you. :)  (Since AFAICS you added the code.) It should
almost certainly also be in the GENERIC files for the systems to which
it applies.

In HEAD and stable/9 it's in sys/conf/NOTES, and
{amd64|i386}/conf/GENERIC; so the same should probably go for stable/8.
Not sure if the code works on stable/7 or not, but we're going to do
another release in stable/8 so it should be updated there for sure.

I've MFC'ed the NOTES bit, but I'm not sure about the GENERIC bit.

Thanks!  What are your concerns about adding it to GENERIC?

Hi,

I don't see any problems at the present. I think all issues have been ironed 
out including the 32/64 byte context sizes. From what I'm aware the XHCI 
driver in 8-stable should be the same like in 9- and 10- except from a recent 
patch done by mav @. This patch should not make a big difference, except for 
INTEL patherpoint devices.
