* Mutual exclusion is used instead of spl*(). See mutex(9). (Note: The
alpha port is still in transition and currently uses both.)
* Per-CPU idle processes.
* Interrupts are run in their own separate kernel threads and can be
preempted (i386 only).

Some have dual host->PCI bridges for the same logical pci bus (!), eg:
some of the RCC chipsets. This is a 32/64 bit 33/66MHz and dual pci
voltage motherboard so persumably there are electical or signalling
differences but they are otherwise the same logical bus.
The new PCI probe code however was getting somewhat upset about it and
ended up creating two pci bridges to the same logical bus, which caused
devices on that logical bus to appear and be probed twice.
The ACPI data on this box correctly identifies this stuff, so bring on
ACPI! :-)
This provides support for the Adaptec SCSI RAID controller family,
as well as the DPT SmartRAID V and VI families.
The driver will be maintained by Mark and Adaptec, and any changes
should be referred to the MAINTAINER.
pcib_set_bus() cannot be used on the new child because it is
meant to be used on the *pci* device (it looks at the parent internally)
not the pcib being added. Bite the bullet and use ivars for the bus
number to avoid any doubts about whether the softc is consistant between
probe and attach. This should not break the Alpha code.
- Enable WB cache via CCR2 and CR0.
- Set the need_pre_dma_flush when the CPU_I486_ON_386 option is
defined.

kernel can instigate an orderly shutdown but still determine the form of
that shutdown. Make it possible eg. to cleanly shutdown and power off the
system under ACPI when the power button is pressed.
the build (oops!): replace calls to p_trespass() and PRISON_CHECK()
with p_can(..., {P_CAN_SEE, P_CAN_DEBUG}, NULL)
o Remove volatile usage from procfs_readdir() to remove warnings
o Apply bp's CREATE fix to linprocfs, causing EROFS to be returned on
CREATE calls to procfs_lookup()
o Some further synchronization still needs to occur: only existing
access checks were replaced, to fix the build--the new ones were not
added. I'll do this later today, this is a "fix the build quickly"
commit. This means that, in the interim, some information leakage
can still occur via linprocfs when using jail or kern.ps_showallprocs

- The "Osd*" stuff went away from acpi driver code, use the bus_space
functions directly instead.
- Fix minor english bugs.
acpi_registers_input -> acpi_register_input
acpi_registers_output -> acpi_register_output
- Remove all magic numbers for the sleeping states. We now have
#defines for these.
- NULL is treated the same as the return from aml_get_rootname in
aml_find_from_namespace().

Thanks mike!
the drivers.
* Remove legacy inx/outx support from chipset and replace with macros
which call busspace.
* Rework pci config accesses to route through the pcib device instead of
calling a MD function directly.
With these changes it is possible to cleanly support machines which have
more than one independantly numbered PCI busses. As a bonus, the new
busspace implementation should be measurably faster than the old one.
renames matcdc to matcd.
This change is reported to work by two independent PR originators.
In the absence of further feedback on the freebsd-bugs list, we
may as well get this working for its two users.

Remove old DEVFS support fields from dev_t.
Make uid, gid & mode members of dev_t and set them in make_dev().
Use correct uid, gid & mode in make_dev in disk minilayer.
Add support for registering alias names for a dev_t using the
new function make_dev_alias(). These will show up as symlinks
in DEVFS.
Use makedev() rather than make_dev() for MFSs magic devices to prevent
DEVFS from noticing this abuse.
Add a field for DEVFS inode number in dev_t.
Add new DEVFS in fs/devfs.
Add devfs cloning to:
disk minilayer (ie: ad(4), sd(4), cd(4) etc etc)
md(4), tun(4), bpf(4), fd(4)
If DEVFS add -d flag to /sbin/inits args to make it mount devfs.
Add commented out DEVFS to GENERIC
that should be better.
The old code counted references to mbuf clusters by using the offset
of the cluster from the start of memory allocated for mbufs and
clusters as an index into an array of chars, which did the reference
counting. If the external storage was not a cluster then reference
counting had to be done by the code using that external storage.
NetBSD's system of linked lists of mbufs was cosidered, but Alfred
felt it would have locking issues when the kernel was made more
SMP friendly.
The system implimented uses a pool of unions to track external
storage. The union contains an int for counting the references and
a pointer for forming a free list. The reference counts are
incremented and decremented atomically and so should be SMP friendly.
This system can track reference counts for any sort of external
storage.
Access to the reference counting stuff is now through macros defined
in mbuf.h, so it should be easier to make changes to the system in
the future.
The possibility of storing the reference count in one of the
referencing mbufs was considered, but was rejected 'cos it would
often leave extra mbufs allocated. Storing the reference count in
the cluster was also considered, but because the external storage
may not be a cluster this isn't an option.
The size of the pool of reference counters is available in the
stats provided by "netstat -m".

suggested fix in PR 12378.
Keep track of all existing pmaps independent of existing processes.
This allows for a process to temporarily connect to a different address
space without the risk of missing an update of the original address space if
the kernel grows.
pmap_pinit2() is no longer needed on the i386 platform but is left as a
stub until the alpha pmap code is updated.

- stop using the evil 'struct trapframe' argument for mi_startup()
(formerly main()). There are much better ways of doing it.
- do not use prepare_usermode() - setregs() in execve() will do it
all for us as long as the p_md.md_regs pointer is set. (which is
now done in machdep.c rather than init_main.c. The Alpha port did it
this way all along and is much cleaner).
- collect all the magic %cr0 etc register settings into one place and
have the AP's call that instead of using magic numbers (!!) that keep
changing over and over again.
- Make it safe to call kthread_create() earlier, including during the
device probe sequence. It doesn't need the callback mechanism that
NetBSD's version uses.
- kthreads created this way are root-less as they exist before the root
filesystem is mounted. init(1) is set up so that it aquires the root
pointers prior to running. If other kthreads want filesystem acccess
we can make this code more generic.
- set all threads start times once we have decided what time it is.
- init uses a trampoline rather than the evil prepare_usermode() hack.
- kern_descrip.c has a couple of tweaks to deal with forking when there
is no rootdir or cwd etc.
- adjust the early SYSINIT() sequence so that a few prereqisites are in
place. eg: make sure the run queue is initialized before doing forks.
With this, the USB code can easily create a kthread to do the device
tree discovery. (I have tested it, it works nicely).
There are still some open issues before this is truely useful.
- tsleep() does not like working before the clock is running. It
sort-of tries to spin wait, but it can do more useful things now.
- stopping a kthread in kld code at unload time is "interesting" but
we have a solution for that.
The Alpha code needs no changes for this. It already uses pretty much the
same strategies, but a little cleaner.
