We need to be able to call this stuff from outer edges of interrupt
handlers for devices that have the ISR bits in pci config space. Making
the bios code mpsafe was just too hairy. We had also stubbed it out some
time ago due to there simply being too much brokenness in too many systems.
This adds a leaf lock so that it is safe to use pci_read_config() and
pci_write_config() from interrupt handlers. We still will use pcibios
to do interrupt routing if there is no acpi.. [yes, I tested this]

o Add some C99 manifest constants (FP_ILOGB0, FP_ILOGBNAN, HUGE_VALF,
HUGE_VALL, INFINITY, NAN, and return values for fpclassify()) to
<math.h> and others (FLT_EVAL_METHOD, DECIMAL_DIG) to <float.h> via
<machine/float.h>.
o Add C99 macro fpclassify() which calls __fpclassify{d,f,l}() based
on the size of its argument. __fpclassifyl() is never called on
alpha because (sizeof(long double) == sizeof(double)), which is good
since __fpclassifyl() can't deal with such a small `long double'.

the caller to specify the size of the allocation instead of it defaulting
to the max_size field of the busdma tag.
This is intended to aid in converting drivers to busdma. Lots of
hardware cannot understand scatter/gather lists, which forces the
driver to copy the i/o buffers to a single contiguous region
before sending it to the hardware. Without these new methods, this
would require a new busdma tag for each operation, or a complex
internal allocator/cache for each driver.
Allocations greater than PAGE_SIZE are rounded up to the next
PAGE_SIZE by contigmalloc(), so this is not suitable for multiple

in the mptable. The way this works is that we determine if the system
has hyperthreading and how many logical CPU's should be in each physical
CPU by using the information returned by cpuid. During the first pass of
the mptable, we build a bitmask of the APIC IDs of the CPUs listed in the
mptable. We then scan that bitmask to see if the CPUs are already listed
by the mptable, or if there are any APIC IDs already in use that would
conflict with the APIC IDs of the logical CPUs. If that test succeeds,
then we fixup the count of application processors. Later on during the
second pass of the mptable we create fake processor entries for logical
CPUs and add them to the system.
We only need this type of fixup hack when using the mptable to enumerate
CPUs. The ACPI MADT table properly enumerates all logical CPUs.

First, eliminate the use of preprocessor magic to form the address
fields of asm instructions. It hid the actual addresses being

dependencies, the compiler might possibly use optimizations which
would result in incorrect code.
Use "__asm __volatile" rather than "__asm" for instruction sequences
that pass information through the condition codes (the carry bit, in
this case). Without __volatile, the compiler might add unrelated
code between consecutive __asm instructions, modifying the condition
codes. I have seen GCC insert stack pointer adjustments in this
way, for example. Unfortunately, GCC doesn't provide a way to
specify dependencies on the condition codes. You can specify that
they are clobbered, but not that you are going to use them as input.

enabled in critical sections and streamline critical_enter() and
critical_exit().
This commit allows an architecture to leave interrupts enabled inside
critical sections if it so wishes. Architectures that do not wish to do
this are not effected by this change.
This commit implements the feature for the I386 architecture and provides
a sysctl, debug.critical_mode, which defaults to 1 (use the feature). For
now you can turn the sysctl on and off at any time in order to test the
architectural changes or track down bugs.
This commit is just the first stage. Some areas of the code, specifically
the MACHINE_CRITICAL_ENTER #ifdef'd code, is strictly temporary and will
be cleaned up in the STAGE-2 commit when the critical_*() functions are
moved entirely into MD files.
The following changes have been made:
* critical_enter() and critical_exit() for I386 now simply increment
and decrement curthread->td_critnest. They no longer disable
hard interrupts. When critical_exit() decrements the counter to
0 it effectively calls a routine to deal with whatever interrupts
were deferred during the time the code was operating in a critical
section.
Other architectures are unaffected.
* fork_exit() has been conditionalized to remove MD assumptions for
the new code. Old code will still use the old MD assumptions
in regards to hard interrupt disablement. In STAGE-2 this will
be turned into a subroutine call into MD code rather then hardcoded
in MI code.
The new code places the burden of entering the critical section
in the trampoline code where it belongs.
* I386: interrupts are now enabled while we are in a critical section.
The interrupt vector code has been adjusted to deal with the fact.
If it detects that we are in a critical section it currently defers
the interrupt by adding the appropriate bit to an interrupt mask.
* In order to accomplish the deferral, icu_lock is required. This
is i386-specific. Thus icu_lock can only be obtained by mainline
i386 code while interrupts are hard disabled. This change has been
made.
* Because interrupts may or may not be hard disabled during a
context switch, cpu_switch() can no longer simply assume that
PSL_I will be in a consistent state. Therefore, it now saves and
restores eflags.
* FAST INTERRUPT PROVISION. Fast interrupts are currently deferred.
The intention is to eventually allow them to operate either while
we are in a critical section or, if we are able to restrict the
use of sched_lock, while we are not holding the sched_lock.
* ICU and APIC vector assembly for I386 cleaned up. The ICU code
has been cleaned up to match the APIC code in regards to format
and macro availability. Additionally, the code has been adjusted
to deal with deferred interrupts.
* Deferred interrupts use a per-cpu boolean int_pending, and
masks ipending, spending, and fpending. Being per-cpu variables
it is not currently necessary to lock; bus cycles modifying them.
Note that the same mechanism will enable preemption to be
incorporated as a true software interrupt without having to
further hack up the critical nesting code.
* Note: the old critical_enter() code in kern/kern_switch.c is
currently #ifdef to be compatible with both the old and new
methodology. In STAGE-2 it will be moved entirely to MD code.
Performance issues:
One of the purposes of this commit is to enhance critical section
performance, specifically to greatly reduce bus overhead to allow
the critical section code to be used to protect per-cpu caches.
These caches, such as Jeff's slab allocator work, can potentially
operate very quickly making the effective savings of the new
critical section code's performance very significant.
The second purpose of this commit is to allow architectures to
enable certain interrupts while in a critical section. Specifically,
the intention is to eventually allow certain FAST interrupts to
operate rather then defer.
The third purpose of this commit is to begin to clean up the
critical_enter()/critical_exit()/cpu_critical_enter()/
cpu_critical_exit() API which currently has serious cross pollution
in MI code (in fork_exit() and ast() for example).
The fourth purpose of this commit is to provide a framework that
allows kernel-preempting software interrupts to be implemented
cleanly. This is currently used for two forward interrupts in I386.
Other architectures will have the choice of using this infrastructure
or building the functionality directly into critical_enter()/
critical_exit().
Finally, this commit is designed to greatly improve the flexibility
of various architectures to manage critical section handling,
software interrupts, preemption, and other highly integrated
architecture-specific details.
on for a while:
- fine grained TLB shootdown for SMP on i386
- ranged TLB shootdowns.. eg: specify a range of pages to shoot down with
a single IPI, since the IPI is very expensive. Adjust some callers
that used to trigger this inside tight loops to do a ranged shootdown
at the end instead.
- PG_G support for SMP on i386 (options ENABLE_PG_G)
- defer PG_G activation till after we decide what we are going to do with
PSE and the 4MB pages at the start of the kernel. This should solve
some rumored strangeness about stale PG_G entries getting stuck
underneath the 4MB pages.
- add some instrumentation for the fine TLB shootdown
- convert some asm instruction wrappers from functions to inlines. gcc

o Prepend underscores to the ntohl() family to help deal with
complexities associated with having MD (asm and inline) versions, and
having to prevent exposure of these functions in other headers that
happen to make use of endian-specific defines.
o Create weak aliases to the canonical function name to help deal with
third-party software forgetting to include an appropriate header.
o Remove some now unneeded pollution from <sys/types.h>.
o Add missing <arpa/inet.h> includes in userland.

ucontext_t. Forward declare struct __ucontext in <sys/signal.h> and
remove reliance on <sys/ucontext.h> being included.
While I'm here, also hide osigcontext types from userland; suggested

patch from a year ago: give file flags their own type. This does not
(yet) change the type used by system calls or library functions.
The underlying type was chosen to match what is returned by stat().
for SMP in the plain profiling case. It seems to work too.
This error was not detected by LINT because LINT only compiles the
GUPROF profiling case, which is is a superset of the plain profiling
case for !SMP but which is so broken for SMP that the buggy code is
not compiled.
they make it through to userland. This should fix the p5-smp problem
without affecting the other cpus (eg: cyrix, see initcpu.c and the special
cache handling for these cpu types).
whether the machine context is valid and whether the FPU state is
valid (saved).
Mark the machine context valid before copying it out when sending a
signal.

and it's associated state variables: icu_lock with the name "icu". This
renames the imen_mtx for x86 SMP, but also uses the lock to protect
access to the 8259 PIC on x86 UP. This also adds an appropriate lock to
the various Alpha chipsets which fixes problems with Alpha SMP machines
dropping interrupts with an SMP kernel.
- The MD functions critical_enter/exit are renamed to start with a cpu_
prefix.
- MI wrapper functions critical_enter/exit maintain a per-thread nesting
count and a per-thread critical section saved state set when entering
a critical section while at nesting level 0 and restored when exiting
to nesting level 0. This moves the saved state out of spin mutexes so
that interlocking spin mutexes works properly.
- Most low-level MD code that used critical_enter/exit now use
cpu_critical_enter/exit. MI code such as device drivers and spin
mutexes use the MI wrappers. Note that since the MI wrappers store
the state in the current thread, they do not have any return values or
arguments.
- mtx_intr_enable() is replaced with a constant CRITICAL_FORK which is
assigned to curthread->td_savecrit during fork_exit().

- Axe inlvtlb_ok as it was completely redundant with smp_active.
- Remove references to non-existent variable and non-existent file
in i386/include/smp.h.
- Don't perform initializations local to each CPU while holding the
ap boot lock on i386 while an AP bootstraps itself.
- Reorganize the AP startup code some to unify the latter half of the
functions to bring an AP up. Eventually this might be broken out into
a MI function in subr_smp.c.
- The MI portions of struct globaldata have been consolidated into a MI
struct pcpu. The MD per-CPU data are specified via a macro defined in
machine/pcpu.h. A macro was chosen over a struct mdpcpu so that the
interface would be cleaner (PCPU_GET(my_md_field) vs.
PCPU_GET(md.md_my_md_field)).
- All references to globaldata are changed to pcpu instead. In a UP kernel,
this data was stored as global variables which is where the original name
came from. In an SMP world this data is per-CPU and ideally private to each
CPU outside of the context of debuggers. This also included combining
machine/globaldata.h and machine/globals.h into machine/pcpu.h.
- The pointer to the thread using the FPU on i386 was renamed from
npxthread to fpcurthread to be identical with other architectures.
- Make the show pcpu ddb command MI with a MD callout to display MD
fields.
- The globaldata_register() function was renamed to pcpu_init() and now
init's MI fields of a struct pcpu in addition to registering it with
the internal array and list.
- A pcpu_destroy() function was added to remove a struct pcpu from the
internal array and list.
