Keep track of interrupt nesting level. It is normally 0
for syscalls and traps, but is fudged to 1 for their exit
processing in case they metamorphose into an interrupt
handler.
i386/genassym.c;
Remove support for the obsolete pcb_iml and pcb_cmap2.
Add support for pcb_inl.
i386/swtch.s:
Fudge the interrupt nesting level across context switches and in
the idle loop so that the work for preemptive context switches
gets counted as interrupt time, the work for voluntary context
switches gets counted mostly as system time (the part when
curproc == 0 gets counted as interrupt time), and only truly idle
time gets counted as idle time.
Remove obsolete support (commented out and otherwise) for pcb_iml.
Load curpcb just before curproc instead of just after so that
curpcb is always valid if curproc is. A few more changes like
this may fix tracing through context switches.
Remove obsolete function swtch_to_inactive().
include/cpu.h:
Use the new interrupt nesting level variable to implement a
non-fake CLF_INTR() so that accounting for the interrupt state
works.
You can use top, iostat or (best) an up to date systat to see
interrupt overheads. I see the expected huge interrupt overheads
for ISA devices (on a 486DX/33, about 55% for an IDE drive
transferring 1250K/sec and the same for a WD8013EBT network card
transferring 1100K/sec). The huge interrupt overheads for serial
devices are unfortunately normally invisible.
include/pcb.h:
Remove the obsolete pcb_iml and pcb_cmap2. Replace them by
padding to preserve binary compatibility.
Use part of the new padding for pcb_inl.
isa/icu.s:
isa/vector.s:
Keep track of interrupt nesting level.
Alphabetize.
Write all i/o functions in sleep so that we don't use anything from
NetBSD.
Restore the correct type of u_int for ports. This saves a whole cycle
per i/o on 486's.
Change `inline' back to __inline to avoid compiler warnings with
-Wreally-all.
Don't implement bdb() unless BDE_DEBUGGER is defined. Declare bdb_exists
outside the function to avoid hundreds of compiler warnings.
Let the compiler pick the register in asms if possible.
Implement ffs() using inline asm(). gcc provides a slightly different
one. It was broken in gcc-2.4.5 but works now. Declaring a correct
version inline ensures getting a correct version. FreeBSD-1.1.5 has
an slow inline version but FreeBSD-2.0 has a library version (which
probably never gets used).
Do inb() and outb() without using %edx for constant ports below 0x100.
Remove casts to the same type in queue functions.
Declare prototypes for everything implemented i386/*.s and also for
everything that is normally implemented as an inline here (I don't
like the current complete dependency on gcc). Ifdef out the prototypes
that are declared elsewhere. THere should be a separate header to
declare things implemented in i386/*.s, but then it would be harder
to override declarations with inlines.
${UII}
Partly support BDE_DEBUGGER. Still broken by conflict with APM. Does
nothing if BDE_DEBUGGER is not defined.
Clean up prototypes and data declarations. Declare most of the segment
functions that are implemented in support.s. Make data private in
machdep.c if possible.
Parenthesize expressions in macros properly!
${Uniformize idempotency ifdef}.
to avoid compiler warnings.
Clean up prototypes: alphabetize; don't use redundant `extern' or
meaningless `extern inline'.
Uniformize idempotency ifdef.
for it is incomplete and buggy. There is no problem unless Xintr0()
is reentered or should be reentered, but high clock interrupt
frequencies for pcaudio cause Xintr0() to be reentered (or clock
ticks to be lost when Xintr0() should have been reentered but
wasn't), and we lose little by delaying the call to softclock().
Move declarations related to the clock driver to clock.h.
Move declarations related to the npx driver to npx.h.
Clean up the remaining declarations.
I know that many of these entries are bogus and need to be revisited,
but let's get the tree working again for now and then do a pass through
looking at all the __FreeBSD__ entries, shall we?
This way, it's possible for a user to activate/deactivate floppy driver
debugging, even if (s)he doesn't like the overhead of running DDB.
Since some ppl tend to have problems with their drives, this might be
valuable for investigations.
and all SCSI devices (except that it's not done quite the way I want). New
information added includes:
- A text description of the device
- A ``state''---unknown, unconfigured, idle, or busy
- A generic parent device (with support in the m.i. code)
- An interrupt mask type field (which will hopefully go away) so that
. ``doconfig'' can be written
This requires a new version of the `lsdev' program as well (next commit).
NOTE: 2.9 is backwards compatable with programs compiled with older
soundcard.h, but new programs compiled with 2.9 will not work on pre-2.9
sound drivers.
cycles. While waiting there I added a lot of the extra ()'s I have, (I have
never used LISP to any extent). So I compiled the kernel with -Wall and
shut up a lot of "suggest you add ()'s", removed a bunch of unused var's
and added a couple of declarations here and there. Having a lap-top is
highly recommended. My kernel still runs, yell at me if you kernel breaks.
matter, but similar bogusness in npx.c causes compiling without -O to fail.
Use __volatile in all asms.
Parenthesize macro args.
Change the names of the macros to avoid namespace pollution.
Remove unnecessary "#ifdef __i386__".
Sort #defines.
Add comments.
