In theory the errors during llan_attach should be handled, but other
errors in llan_attach (e.g. bus_setup_intr) are already ignored, so
just remove the unused variable to preserve the status quo.
ISA 3.0 allows for nested radix translations with minimal to no

Now that the upper layers all go through a layer to tie into these
information functions that translates an sbuf into char * and len. The
current interface suffers issues of what to do in cases of truncation,
etc. Instead, migrate all these functions to using struct sbuf and these
issues go away. The caller is also in charge of any memory allocation
and/or expansion that's needed during this process.
Create a bus_generic_child_{pnpinfo,location} and make it default. It
just returns success. This is for those busses that have no information

In uart_phyp_get(), when the internal buffer is empty, we make a
hypercall to retrieve up to 16 bytes of input data from the
hypervisor. As this is specified to be returned in BE format, we need
to do a 64-bit byte swap on the first and second half of the data.
If the buffer being passed in was insufficient to return the fetched
data, we store the remainder in the internal buffer and use it to
satisfy the following calls to uart_phyp_get() until it is drained.
However, in this case, we were accidentally byteswapping the internal
buffer again.
Move the byteswapping code to just after the hypercall so it only gets
swapped when we're filling the buffer.

This change adds support for transparent superpages for PowerPC64
systems using Hashed Page Tables (HPT). All pmap operations are
supported.
The changes were inspired by RISC-V implementation of superpages,
by @markj (r344106), but heavily adapted to fit PPC64 HPT architecture
and existing MMU OEA64 code.
While these changes are not better tested, superpages support is disabled by
default. To enable it, use vm.pmap.superpages_enabled=1.
In this initial implementation, when superpages are disabled, system
performance stays at the same level as without these changes. When
superpages are enabled, buildworld time increases a bit (~2%). However,
for workloads that put a heavy pressure on the TLB the performance boost
is much bigger (see HPC Challenge and pgbench on D25237).

With IFUNC support in the kernel, we can finally get rid of our poor-man's

This change enables the use of OpenFirmware Console (ofwcons), even when VGA is
available, allowing early kernel messages to be seen, that is important in case
of crashes before VGA console initialization.
This is specially useful in virtualized environments, where the user/developer
doesn't have full control of the virtualization engine (e.g. OpenStack).
The old behavior is preserved by default and, in order to use ofwcons, a few
tunables that have been introduced need to be set:
- hw.ofwfb.disable=1 - disable OFW FrameBuffer device
- machdep.ofw.mtx_spin=1 - change PPC OFW mutex to SPIN type, to match kernel
console's mutex type
- debug.quiesce_ofw=0 - don't call OFW quiesce, needed to keep ofwcons I/O

EVENTHANDLER_DECLARE and EVENTHANDLER_LIST_DECLAREs were moved out of .c

As a side effect of reduced header pollution, many .c files and headers no

adding appropriate includes to fix those files.
LOCK_DEBUG and LOCK_FILE_LINE_ARG are moved to sys/_lock.h, as required by

very complex device using queues and shared memory to improve interrupt
dispatch performance in a virtualized environment.

Currently, this only supports native access.

The IPI vector is static, and happens to be the most common interrupt by far
on some systems. Rather than searching for the interrupt every time, cache
the index.
This appears to yield a small performance boost, of about 8% reduction in
buildworld times, on my POWER9 system, when paired with r342975.
The XICS and XIVE need extra data beyond irq and vector. Rather than
performing a separate search, it's better for the general interrupt facility
to hold a private pointer, since the search already must be done anyway at
that level.
In r342771, I introduced a regression in Power by abusing the platform
smp_topo() method as a shortcut for providing the MI information needed for
the stated sysctls. The smp_topo() method was already called later by
sched_ule (under the name cpu_topo()), and initializes a static array of
scheduler topology information. I had skimmed the smp_topo_foo() functions
and assumed they were idempotent; empirically, they are not (or at least,
detect re-initialization and panic).
Do the cleaner thing I should have done in the first place and add a
platform method specifically for core- and thread-count probing.
