We need to also start rifling through the numerous USB PRs and figure out what is still valid, this has started, and needs to continue. I plan on looking at a few PRs this weekend. Also pretty much all the NetBSD USB changes that have been made over the last 3 years that haven't been imported needs to be imported if possible so we aren't stuck with broken and diverging USB code. There are some issues with some stand alone USB mice (Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer) that don't work. I've got some preliminary patches to get some of these partially working. There are also issues with various Palm-based handhelds displaying strange behavior when trying to sync. There seems to be a timing bug in the USB that I can reproduce with my Handspring Visor has existed from 4.x to now, causing the first attempt to sync to timeout. usbd needs to die now that we have devd. I'm going to (unless someone beats me there) create a patch to transfer all of the usbd.conf devices to devd.conf. This also means that devfs.rules needs to be documented about so people can set the permissions properly. > EHCI command completion interrupts probably also need work.. > 3/ scottl has said that he wants to work on CAM/SIM and that may impact > umass. > 4/ I think we need to do more work on umass devices in general. > > > I have a work requirement to try MFC some of the more important stuff > back to 4.x. > Anyone already doing that?
