Of course, the goal is merging the core part of the driver and splitting bus/arch specific part. My rough plan is: - New-bus'ize the ed driver for pc98. - Split sys/dev/ed stuff and pc98/pc98/if_ed* into the 8390 generic part and MD parts. - Merge. However, the work is not so easy. I think bus-space'ize in sys/dev/ed is needed to do so. We have already had skeleton of the bus-space stuff but more work is required to make it work in pc98 kernel. Also, I don't want to see so many `#ifdef PC98' under sys/dev directory that seems to be MI part. -----------------------------------------------+--------------------------+ KATO Takenori | FreeBSD | Dept.
