to describe the 4.4BSD extension of accepting arguments outside the range
of unsigned char. This gives us freedom to remove this extension when we
remove the <rune.h> interface in FreeBSD 6.
- Enable recursion on the page queues lock. This allows calls to
vm_page_alloc(VM_ALLOC_NORMAL) and UMA's obj_alloc() with the page
queues lock held. Such calls are made to allocate page table pages
and pv entries.
- The previous change enables a partial reversion of vm/vm_page.c
revision 1.216, i.e., the call to vm_page_alloc() by vm_page_cowfault()
now specifies VM_ALLOC_NORMAL rather than VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT.
- Add partial locking to pmap_copy(). (As a side-effect, pmap_copy()
should now be faster on i386 SMP because it no longer generates IPIs
for TLB shootdown on the other processors.)
- Complete the locking of pmap_enter() and pmap_enter_quick(). (As of now,
all changes to a user-level pmap on alpha, amd64, and i386 are performed
with appropriate locking.)
- zone_large_init() stays pretty much the same.
- zone_small_init() will try to stash the slab header in the slab page
being allocated if the amount of calculated wasted space is less
than UMA_MAX_WASTE (for both the UMA_ZONE_REFCNT case and regular
case). If the amount of wasted space is >= UMA_MAX_WASTE, then
UMA_ZONE_OFFPAGE will be set and the slab header will be allocated
separately for better use of space.
- uma_startup() calculates the maximum ipers required in offpage slabs
(so that the offpage slab header zone(s) can be sized accordingly).
The algorithm used to calculate this replaces the old calculation
(which only happened to work coincidentally). We now iterate over
possible object sizes, starting from the smallest one, until we
determine that wastedspace calculated in zone_small_init() might
end up being greater than UMA_MAX_WASTE, at which point we use the
found object size to compute the maximum possible ipers. The
reason this works is because:
- wastedspace versus objectsize is a see-saw function with
local minima all equal to zero and local maxima growing
directly proportioned to objectsize. This implies that
for objects up to or equal a certain objectsize, the see-saw
remains entirely below UMA_MAX_WASTE, so for those objectsizes
it is impossible to ever go OFFPAGE for slab headers.
- ipers (items-per-slab) versus objectsize is an inversely
proportional function which falls off very quickly (very large
for small objectsizes).
- To determine the maximum ipers we'll ever need from OFFPAGE
slab headers we first find the largest objectsize for which
we are guaranteed to not go offpage for and use it to compute
ipers (as though we were offpage). Since the only objectsizes
allowed to go offpage are bigger than the found objectsize,
and since ipers vs objectsize is inversely proportional (and
monotonically decreasing), then we are guaranteed that the
ipers computed is always >= what we will ever need in offpage
slab headers.
- Define UMA_FRITM_SZ and UMA_FRITMREF_SZ to be the actual (possibly
padded) size of each freelist index so that offset calculations are
fixed.
This might fix weird data corruption problems and certainly allows
ARM to now boot to at least single-user (via simulator).
Tested on i386 UP by me.

to be executed even when -n is given on the command line to make. This is
very handy for calls to submakes.
This is slightly changed from the original patch as obtained from NetBSD.
The NetBSD variant prints lines which have both '+' and '@' when -n
is specified. The commited version always obeys '@'.
Bump MAKE_VERSION so Makefiles can use this conditionally.

* Some systems have _FDE and child floppy devices, but no _FDI. This seems
to be compatible with the standard. Don't error out if there is no _FDI.
Instead, continue on to the next device. The normal fd probe will take
care of this device.
* Some systems have _FDE but no child devices in AML. For these, add a
second pass that compares the results of _FDE to the presence of devices.
If not present, add the missing device.
* Some BIOS authors didn't read the spec. They use tape drive values for
all fdc(4) devices. Since this isn't grossly incompatible with the
required boolean value, use them. They also define the _FDE items as a
package instead of buffer. Regenerate the buffer from the package if it
is present.
