Also, it should probably be a : u_int as negative values don't really make sense. One caution: u_short flags; /**< internal device flags */ #define DF_ENABLED 1 /* device should be probed/attached */ #define DF_FIXEDCLASS 2 /* devclass specified at create time */ #define DF_WILDCARD 4 /* unit was originally wildcard */ #define DF_DESCMALLOCED 8 /* description was malloced */ #define DF_QUIET 16 /* don't print verbose attach message */ #define DF_DONENOMATCH 32 /* don't execute DEVICE_NOMATCH again */ #define DF_EXTERNALSOFTC 64 /* softc not allocated by us */ #define DF_REBID 128 /* Can rebid after attach */ #define DF_REMAPPED 256 /* all remapping completed */ u_char order; /**< order from device_add_child_ordered() */ u_char pad; I'd be inclined to change this to: u_int flags; /**< internal device flags */ #define DF_ENABLED 1 /* device should be probed/attached */ #define DF_FIXEDCLASS 2 /* devclass specified at create time */ #define DF_WILDCARD 4 /* unit was originally wildcard */ #define DF_DESCMALLOCED 8 /* description was malloced */ #define DF_QUIET 16 /* don't print verbose attach message */ #define DF_DONENOMATCH 32 /* don't execute DEVICE_NOMATCH again */ #define DF_EXTERNALSOFTC 64 /* softc not allocated by us */ #define DF_REBID 128 /* Can rebid after attach */ #define DF_REMAPPED 256 /* all remapping completed */ u_int order; /**< order from device_add_child_ordered() */ so that the padding and such remains consistent. I think this is even an MFCable change, since device_t's size isn't exposed outside of subr_bus.c... Warner
