A single polynomial approximation for tan(x) works in infinite precision
up to |x| < pi/2, but in finite precision, to restrict the accumulated
roundoff error to < 1 ulp, |x| must be restricted to less than about
sqrt(0.5/((1.5+1.5)/3)) ~= 0.707. We restricted it a bit more to
give a safety margin including some slop for optimizations. Now that
we use double precision for the calculations, the accumulated roundoff
error is in double-precision ulps so it can easily be made almost 2**29
times smaller than a single-precision ulp. Near x = pi/4 its maximum
is about 0.5+(1.5+1.5)*x**2/3 ~= 1.117 double-precision ulps.
The minimax polynomial needs to be different to work for the larger
interval. I didn't increase its degree the old degree is just large
enough to keep the final error less than 1 ulp and increasing the
degree would be a pessimization. The maximum error is now ~0.80
ulps instead of ~0.53 ulps.
The speedup from this optimization for uniformly distributed args in
[-2pi, 2pi] is 28-43% on athlons, depending on how badly gcc selected
and scheduled the instructions in the old version. The old version
has some int-to-float conversions that are apparently difficult to schedule
well, but gcc-3.3 somehow did everything ~10 cycles or ~10% faster than
gcc-3.4, with the difference especially large on AXPs. On A64s, the
problem seems to be related to documented penalties for moving single
precision data to undead xmm registers. With this version, the speed
is cycles is almost independent of the athlon and gcc version despite
the large differences in instruction selection to use the FPU on AXPs
and SSE on A64s.
directly. We need to copyin() the strings in the iovec before
we can strcmp() them. Also, when we want to send the errmsg back
to userspace, we need to copyout()/copystr() the string.
Add a small helper function vfs_getopt_pos() which takes in the
name of an option, and returns the array index of the name in the iovec,
or -1 if not found. This allows us to locate an option in
the iovec without actually manipulating the iovec members. directly via
strcmp().

This is a minor interface change. The function is renamed from
__kernel_tanf() to __kernel_tandf() so that misues of it will cause
link errors and not crashes.
This version is a routine translation with no special optimizations
for accuracy or efficiency. It gives an unimportant increase in
accuracy, from ~0.9 ulps to 0.5285 ulps. Almost all of the error is
from the minimax polynomial (~0.03 ulps and the final rounding step
(< 0.5 ulps). It gives strange differences in efficiency in the -5
to +10% range, with -O1 fairly consistently becoming faster and -O2
slower on AXP and A64 with gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4.

arg to __kernel_rem_pio2() gives 53-bit (double) precision, not single
precision and/or the array dimension like I thought. prec == 2 is
used in e_rem_pio2.c for double precision although it is documented
to be for 64-bit (extended) precision, and I just reduced it by 1
thinking that this would give the value suitable for 24-bit (float)
precision. Reducing it 1 more to the documented value for float
precision doesn't actually work (it gives errors of ~0.75 ulps in the
reduced arg, but errors of much less than 0.5 ulps are needed; the bug
seems to be in kernel_rem_pio2.c). Keep using a value 1 larger than
the documented value but supply an array large enough hold the extra
unused result from this.
The bug can also be fixed quickly by increasing init_jk[0] in
k_rem_pio2.c from 2 to 3. This gives behaviour identical to using
prec == 1 except it doesn't create the extra result. It isn't clear
how the precision bug affects higher precisions. 113-bit (quad) is
the largest precision, so there is no way to use a large precision
to fix it.
Instead, re-evaluate _BIF only when we get a notify and use the cached
results. We also still evaluate _BIF once on boot. Also, optimize the
init loop a little by only querying for a particular info if it's not valid.

INO) for incorrect interrupt map entries on E250 machines. These
incorrect entries caused the INO of the on-board HME to be also
assigned to the second on-board NS16550 and to the on-board printer
port controller. Further down the road caused hme(4) to fail to attach
to the on-board HME in FreeBSD 5 and 6 as INTR_FAST and non-INTR_FAST
handlers can't share the same IRQ there (it's unknown what whould
happen in -CURRENT now that INTR_FAST and non-INTR_FAST handlers can
share an IRQ but I'd expect funny problems with uart(4)).
- Make sure there are exactly 4 PCI ranges instead of just checking
that the bridge has a 'ranges' property in the OFW device tree at all.
Besides the fact that currently the 64bit memory range isn't used by
this driver it we can't really work with less than 4 ranges and don't
have memory for more than 4 bus handles for the ranges in the softc.
- Remove sc_range and sc_nrange from softc; for the bridges supported
by this driver we no longer need to know the ranges besides the bus
handles obtained from them once this driver is attached. That way we
also can free the memory allocated for sc_range during attach again.
- Remove sc_dvmabase from the softc and pass it to psycho_iommu_init()
via an additional argument as we no longer need to know the DVMA base
in this driver once the IOMMU is initialized.
- Remove sc_dmatag from the softc, there isn't much sense in keeping
the nexus dma tag around locally.

between this driver and other Host-PCI bridge drivers based on this one:
- Make the code fit into 80 columns.
- Make the code adhere style(9) (don't use function calls in initializers,
use uintXX_t instead of u_intXX_t, add missing prototypes, ...).
- Remove unused and superfluous struct declaration, softc member, casts,
includes, etc.
- Use FBSDID.
- Sprinkle const.
- Try to make comments and messages consistent in style throughout the
driver.
- Use convenience macros for the number of interrupts and ranges of the
bridge.
- Use __func__ instead of hardcoded function names in panic strings and
error messages. Some of the hardcoded function names actually were
outdated through moving code around. [1]
- Rename softc members related to the PCI side of the bridge to sc_pci_*
in order to make it clear which side of the bridge they refer to (so
stuff like sc_bushandle vs. sc_bh is less confusing while reading the
code).
