Hi,

Are there any brief summaries, suitable for those not-so-experienced,
on what got changed in drivers's upporting structures when evolving
from 1.6 to 1.7?

The module code, which is compilable on 1.6-RELEASE, won't compile on
1.7-CURRENT.


1) no more machine/{bus,rman}.h 2) malloc, free -> k{malloc,free} 3) dev_ops

If your module is not hooked into kernel src tree, you probably need
to apply the patch I posted to submit@ several hours ago, and at least
manually install usr.sbin/config.

Best Regards,
sephe
