o soren updated the ata driver. Please use 1213 or newer if
you have problems with the old stuff.
o Enshrine the night of bared axes against wd. Strongly push
users to move to ata driver.
o Alpha users need to recompile klds after 11/29.
o Mention the sound driver bridge code commit of 11/22.
o change examples in 1205 entry from wd to ad.
o Talk about new dc driver replacing all of the drivers that
Bill Paul has ever written.[*]
Corrections to these entries welcome.

cannot unilaterally pass data to a client it can reduce the physical
disk transaction overhead by reading larger blocks. This results in
better pipelining of requests/responses over the network and an almost
100% increase in cpu efficiency on the server. On a 100BaseTX network
NFS read performance increases from 8.5 MBytes/sec to 10 MB/sec (maxed
out), and cpu efficiency increases from 72% idle to 80% idle on the server.

This is the second part of the commit (the third -- link in usr.sbin/Makefile)
will be done after a more complete review by phk & obrien.
NOTE: the number of drivers included in the default configuration is very
minimal, mainly local clocks and the one I use RAWDCF. Anyone wanting to
have a more complete version will find recompilation very easy.
It builds and runs on both alpha & i386. It also does survive "make world".

Add a missing DELAY(1) in ata_wait.
Change the info from ad_version, so the ATA version from the disk can
be used to quantify the DAM modes valid for this drive, ie be more
selective with turning DMA on on older disks that should not support it..
Fix the probe for BIOS enabled DMA in the generic case, master/slave
was reversed in the test.
Check the return for ata_command in all cases, and print warnings if
it fails.
Call ata_dmainit with all dmamodes off when falling back to PIO mode,
that should take care of both the Promise & HPT366 controllers not
being able to handle the fallback...
Cleanup the printf's in the drivers, use the prober device name (if
possible) instead of ataN-master/slave.
1. Data written beyond end of pipe buffer, causing kernel memory corruption.
- Check that space is still valid after obtaining the pipe lock.
- Defer the calculation of transfer size until the pipe
lock has been obtained.
- Update the pipe buffer pointers while holding the pipe lock.
2. Writes of size <= PIPE_BUF not always atomic.
- Allow an internal write to span two contiguous segments,
so writes of size <= PIPE_BUF can be kept atomic
when wrapping around from the end to the start of the
pipe buffer.
