Hi All, As you are aware, my project is to convert PCI drivers to be table driven. This week, I've worked on some of the PCI drivers which need some modification. As we decided to create a new macro - PCI_MATCH, i was working on consolidating my work using this macro. Firstly as per the earlier strategy I pushed the code to the intermediate fork. Then from there I began the conversion process to consolidate the PCI drivers to conform to our new strategy [1] [2]. Furthermore, I've been working on the following new drivers as well: le, lio, mpr, mvs, my, mly, mps, mskc, etc. [3] [4]. Phabricator reviews are here - [5], [6], [7], [8]. We need to convert the drivers in a certain way so that kldxref can find it and record it in linker hints. I am also learning the internals of the kernel, this will help our goal ultimately - Automatic module loading. [9] Please find my updated project homepage here.
