Porting DDI 7 DSP files to DDI 8
All DDI 8 drivers are treated as
autoconfigured, dynamically-loaded drivers.
This implies the following:
-
No static linkage structures such as
Ftab(DSP/4dsp)
entries are generated for these drivers.
-
For drivers that are statically linked
(in other words, called during system initialization
rather than when first accessed by a running process),
initialization information is still picked up
from the driver's
_load(D2)
entry point routine.
Such drivers are identified by the
$static flag in the driver's
Master(DSP/4dsp)
file.
-
No config.h preprocessor symbols
for major numbers are generated.
