This commit separates the low-level keyboard driver from TTY, putting it in a separate driver (PCKBD). The commit also separates management of raw input devices from TTY, and puts it in a separate server (INPUT). All keyboard and mouse input from hardware is sent by drivers to the INPUT server, which either sends it to a process that has opened a raw input device, or otherwise forwards it to TTY for standard processing. Design by Dirk Vogt. Prototype by Uli Kastlunger. Additional changes made to the prototype: - the event communication is now based on USB HID codes; all input drivers have to use USB codes to describe events; - all TTY keymaps have been converted to USB format, with the effect that a single keymap covers all keys; there is no (static) escaped keymap anymore; - further keymap tweaks now allow remapping of literally all keys; - input device renumbering and protocol rewrite; - INPUT server rewrite, with added support for cancel and select; - PCKBD reimplementation, including PC/AT-to-USB translation; - support for manipulating keyboard LEDs has been added; - keyboard and mouse multiplexer devices have been added to INPUT, primarily so that an X server need only open two devices; - a new "libinputdriver" library abstracts away protocol details from input drivers, and should be used by all future input drivers; - both INPUT and PCKBD can be restarted; - TTY is now scheduled by KERNEL, so that it won't be punished for running a lot; without this, simply running "yes" on the console kills the system; - the KIOCBELL IOCTL has been moved to /dev/console; - support for the SCANCODES termios setting has been removed; - obsolete keymap compression has been removed; - the obsolete Olivetti M24 keymap has been removed.

# $NetBSD: README,v 1.11 2009/09/12 09:24:32 jnemeth Exp $ the scripts should be run from the directory where they reside. makeflist: output the list of files that should be in a distribution, according to the contents of the 'lists' directory. checkflist: check the file list (as internally generated by makeflist) against the tree living in $DESTDIR. (that tree should be made with 'make distribution'.) maketars: make tarballs of the various sets in the distribution, based on the contents of the lists, the tree in $DESTDIR, and put the tarballs in $RELEASEDIR. Note that this script _doesn't_ create the 'secr' distribution, because (for now) it requires manual intervention to get the binaries right... (i'll add another script to create that dist, later.) what's in 'lists': lists describing file sets. There are two sets of lists per file set: machine dependent and machine-independent files. (there's also another file in the 'man' dir, which is used by the 'man' and 'misc' sets, but that's explained later.) There is one machine-independent file, named "mi". There are N machine-dependent files (one per architecture), named "md.${ARCH}". the sets are as follows: base: the base binary set. excludes everything described below. comp: compiler tools. All of the tools relating to C, C++, and FORTRAN (yes, there are two!) that are in the tree. This includes includes, the linker, tool chain, and the .a versions of the libraries. (obviously, base includes ldd, ld.so, and the shared versions. base also includes 'cpp', because that's used by X11.) includes the man pages for all the binaries contained within. Also, includes all library and system call manual pages. etc: /etc, and associated files (/var/cron/tabs, /root, etc.). things that shouldn't be blindly reinstalled on an upgrade. games: the games and their man pages. man: all of the man pages for the system, except those listed elsewhere (e.g. in comp, games, misc, text). Includes machine-dependent man pages for this CPU. misc: share/dict, share/doc, and the machine-dependent man pages for other CPUs which happen to always be installed. modules: stand/${MACHINE}/${OSRELEASE}/modules kernel modules tests: unit, regression, integration and stress tests for the whole system. text: text processing tools. groff and all of its friends. includes man pages for all bins contained within. as noted, in addition to the "standard" files in each dir, there's a file called 'md_share' in lists/man. it's the list of man pages that are installed from /usr/src/share, which are machine-dependent. (note that ones that are installed from elsewhere, and thus are installed on only one architecture, are listed in the md.${ARCH} file.) basically, it's grepped through, to see which of the machine-dependent man pages that are always installed should go in the 'man' set, and which should go into the 'misc' set. Each set must contain "./etc/mtree/set.<set name>" within the mi list. Failure to add this will break unprivileged builds.
