Major ppbus commit with:

1999-01-10T12:04:56+00:00

	+ ECP parallel port chipset FIFO detection
	+ DMA+FIFO parallel I/O handled as chipset specific
	+ nlpt updated in order to use the above enhanced parallel I/O.
	  Use 'lptcontrol -e' to use enhanced I/O
	+ Various options documented in LINT
	+ Full IEEE1284 NIBBLE and BYTE modes support. See ppbus(4) for
	  an overview of the IEEE1284 standard
	+ Detection of PnP parallel devices at boot
	+ Read capability added to nlpt driver to get IEEE1284 compliant
	  printer status with a simple 'cat /dev/lpt0'
	+ IEEE1284 peripheral emulation added to BYTE mode. Two computers
	  may dialog according to IEEE1284 signaling method.
	  See PERIPH_1284 option and /sys/dev/ppbus/ppi.c

All this code is supposed to provide basic functions for IEEE1284 programming.
ppi.c and nlpt.c may act as examples.

ppbus enhanced to support ZIP+ : 1284 code added, microseq improved +

some bugs corrected in vpoio.

Major ppbus updates from the author.

1998-08-03T19:14:33+00:00

 - ppbus now supports PLIP via the if_plip driver
 - ieee1284 infrastructure added, including parallel-port PnP
 - port microsequencer added, for scripting the sort of port I/O
   that is common with parallel devices without endless calls up and down
   through the driver structure.
 - improved bus ownership behaviour among the ppbus-using drivers.
 - improved I/O chipset feature detection

The vpo driver is now implemented using the microsequencer, leading to
some performance improvements as well as providing an extensive example
of its use.
