Subject: QDSS csr adddress is wrong in vax configuration files
Message-ID: <16447@mimsy.UUCP>

Lines: 27
Index: /sys/conf/* 4.3BSD-tahoe Fix
Description:
The QDSS driver happens to ignore the csr address of 0177400
listed in the distributed vax-specific configuration files.
Nonetheless, the address is wrong, and a future version of
the driver will require the correct address.
Repeat-by:
Examination
Fix:
Change
device qd0 at uba0 csr 0177400 vector qddint qdaint qdiint
to
device qd0 at uba0 csr 017400 vector qddint qdaint qdiint
wherever it appears (GENERIC.vax, LINT.vax, and any private
configurations). You can use `0x1f00' if you prefer (the
VCB02 manual lists the standard QDSS addresses in hex---no doubt
this is how the wrong one crept in).
