- vector.s <- stub called by i386/exception.s
- icu_vector.s <- UP
- apic_vector.s <- SMP
Split icu.s into UP and SMP specific files:
- ipl.s <- stub called by i386/exception.s (formerly icu.s)
- icu_ipl.s <- UP
- apic_ipl.s <- SMP
This was done in preparation for massive changes to the SMP INTerrupt
mechanisms. More fine tuning, such as merging ipl.s into exception.s,
may be appropriate.
Peter Wemm <peter@spinner.DIALix.COM>, Steve Passe <smp@csn.net>
removed all the IPI_INTS code.
made the XFAST_IPI32 code default, renaming Xfastipi32 to Xinvltlb.
cleanup of i386/isa/isa_device.h to eliminate SMP dependancies:
made the id_irq member of struct isa_device an u_int.
made the id_drq member of struct isa_device an int.
removed all other '#ifdefs' concerning SMP & APIC_IO.
removed SMP/APIC_IO dependancies from if_ze.c.
There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.
The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.
There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.
This commit is the result of the tinkering and testing over the last 14
months by many people. A special thanks to Steve Passe for implementing
the APIC code!
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
handlers if interrupts are nested more than a few (3) deep. This
only reduces the maximum nesting level by 1 with the standard
drivers unless there is a related bug somewhere, but can't hurt
much (the worst case is returning to hoggish interrupt handler like
wdintr(), but such interrupt handlers hurt anyway).
Fixed a previously harmless race incrementing the interrupt nesting
level.
This should be in 2.1.6 and 2.2.
hardware interrupt counts add up to the total. Previously, software
interrupts generated by splz() were counted in the total. These
software interrupts seem to be very rare - there have apparently been
0 of them on freefall among the last 352448857 interrupts.

The nesting rules of macros are different, which required some changes.
Use __CONCAT(x,y) instead of /**/.
Redo some comments to use /* */ rather than "# comment" because the ansi
cpp cares about those, and also cares about quote matching.

/dev/random is now a part of the kernel! you will need to make
the device in /dev: sh MAKEDEV random
and take a look at some test code in src/tools/test/random.
This code will only be included in your kernel if you have
'options DEVRANDOM', but that will fall away in a couple of days.
Obtained from: Theodore Ts'o, Linux
Previously, this worked right if both AUTO_EOI_1 and AUTO_EOI_2 are
defined, but not if AUTO_EOI_1 is defined and AUTO_EOI_2 is not defined.
The latter case should be the default. DUMMY_NOPS should be the default
too. Currently there are only two NOPs slowing down rtcin() (although
there are no delays in writertc()) and several FASTER_NOPs slowing down
interrupt handling in vector.s.
Fix stack offsets for the (previously) unused untested
FAST_INTR_HANDLER_USES_ES case.
Keep track of interrupt nesting level. It is normally 0
for syscalls and traps, but is fudged to 1 for their exit
processing in case they metamorphose into an interrupt
handler.
i386/genassym.c;
Remove support for the obsolete pcb_iml and pcb_cmap2.
Add support for pcb_inl.
i386/swtch.s:
Fudge the interrupt nesting level across context switches and in
the idle loop so that the work for preemptive context switches
gets counted as interrupt time, the work for voluntary context
switches gets counted mostly as system time (the part when
curproc == 0 gets counted as interrupt time), and only truly idle
time gets counted as idle time.
Remove obsolete support (commented out and otherwise) for pcb_iml.
Load curpcb just before curproc instead of just after so that
curpcb is always valid if curproc is. A few more changes like
this may fix tracing through context switches.
Remove obsolete function swtch_to_inactive().
include/cpu.h:
Use the new interrupt nesting level variable to implement a
non-fake CLF_INTR() so that accounting for the interrupt state
works.
You can use top, iostat or (best) an up to date systat to see
interrupt overheads. I see the expected huge interrupt overheads
for ISA devices (on a 486DX/33, about 55% for an IDE drive
transferring 1250K/sec and the same for a WD8013EBT network card
transferring 1100K/sec). The huge interrupt overheads for serial
devices are unfortunately normally invisible.
include/pcb.h:
Remove the obsolete pcb_iml and pcb_cmap2. Replace them by
padding to preserve binary compatibility.
Use part of the new padding for pcb_inl.
isa/icu.s:
isa/vector.s:
Keep track of interrupt nesting level.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/clock.c:
o Garrett's statclock changes.
o Wire xxxintr, not Vclk.
o Wire using register_intr(), not setidt().
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.s:
o Garrett's statclock changes.
o Removed unused variable high_imask.
o Fake int 8 for rtc as well as int 0 for clk. Required for kernel
profiling with statclock, harmless otherwise.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa.c:
o Allow isdp->id_irq and other things in *isdp to be changed by
probes. Changing interrupts later requires direct calls to
register_intr() and unregister_intr() and more care.
ALLOW_CONFLICT_* is brought over from 1.1.5, except
ALLOW_CONFLICT_IRQ is not supported. IRQ conflict checking is
delayed until after probing so that drivers can change the IRQ
to a free one; real conflicts require more cooperation between
drivers to handle.
o Too many details to list.
o This file requires splitting and a lot more work.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa_device.h:
o Declare more things more completely.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sio.c:
o Prepare to register interrupt handlers as fast.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/vector.s:
o Generate entry code for 16 fast interrupt handlers and 16 normal
interrupt handlers. Changed some constants to variables:
# $unit is now intr_unit[intr]. Type is int. Someday it should
be a cookie suitable for the handler (e.g., a struct com_s for
sio).
# $handler is now intr_handler[intr].
# intrcnt_actv[id_num] is now *intr_countp[intr]. The indirection
is required to get a contiguous range of counters for vmstat
and so that the drivers depend more in the driver than on the
interrupt number (drivers could take turns using an interrupt
and the counts would remain correct). There is a separate
counter for each device and for each stray interrupt. In
1.1.5, stray interrupt 7 clobbers the count for device 7 or
something worse if there is no device 7 :-(.
# mask is now intr_mask[intr] (was already indirect).
o Entry points are now _XintrI and _XfastintrI (I = intr = 0-15),
not _VdevU (U = unit).
o Removed BUILD_VECTORS stuff. There's a trace of it left for
the string table for vmstat but config now generates the
string in one piece because nothing more is required.
o Removed old handling of stray interrupts and older comments
about it.

list of changes, I've made the following additional changes:
1) i386/include/ipl.h renamed to spl.h as the name conflicts with the
file of the same name in i386/isa/ipl.h.
2) changed all use of *mask (i.e. netmask, biomask, ttymask, etc) to
*_imask (net_imask, etc).
3) changed vestige of splnet use in if_is to splimp.
4) got rid of "impmask" completely (Bruce had gotten rid of netmask),
and are now using net_imask instead.
5) dozens of minor cruft to glue in Bruce's changes.
These require changes I made to config(8) as well, and thus it must
be rebuilt.

from Bruce Evans:
sio:
o No diff is supplied. Remove the define of setsofttty(). I hope
that is enough.
*.s:
o i386/isa/debug.h no longer exists. The event counters became too
much trouble to maintain. All function call entry and exception
entry counters can be recovered by using profiling kernel (the new
profiling supports all entry points; however, it is too slow to
leave enabled all the time; it also). Only BDBTRAP() from debug.h
is now used. That is moved to exception.s. It might be worth
preserving SHOW_BITS() and calling it from _mcount() (if enabled).
o T_ASTFLT is now only set just before calling trap().
o All exception handlers set SWI_AST_MASK in cpl as soon as possible
after entry and arrange for _doreti to restore it atomically with
exiting. It is not possible to set it atomically with entering
the kernel, so it must be checked against the user mode bits in
the trap frame before committing to using it. There is no place
to store the old value of cpl for syscalls or traps, so there are
some complications restoring it.
Profiling stuff (mostly in *.s):
o Changes to kern/subr_mcount.c, gcc and gprof are not supplied yet.
o All interesting labels `foo' are renamed `_foo' and all
uninteresting labels `_bar' are renamed `bar'. A small change
to gprof allows ignoring labels not starting with underscores.
o MCOUNT_LABEL() is to provide names for counters for times spent
in exception handlers.
o FAKE_MCOUNT() is a version of MCOUNT() suitable for exception
handlers. Its arg is the pc where the exception occurred. The
new mcount() pretends that this was a call from that pc to a
suitable MCOUNT_LABEL().
o MEXITCOUNT is to turn off any timer started by MCOUNT().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/exception.s:
o The non-BDB BPTTRAP() macros were doing a sti even when interrupts
were disabled when the trap occurred. The sti (fixed) sti is
actually a no-op unless you have my changes to machdep.c that make
the debugger trap gates interrupt gates, but fixing that would
make the ifdefs messier. ddb seems to be unharmed by both
interrupts always disabled and always enabled (I had the branch in
the fix back to front for some time :-().
o There is no known pushal bug.
o tf_err can be left as garbage for syscalls.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/locore.s:
o Fix and update BDE_DEBUGGER support.
o ENTRY(btext) before initialization was dangerous.
o Warm boot shot was longer than intended.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/machdep.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. It's what I'm using, but may require
other changes.
Use the following:
o Remove aston() and setsoftclock().
Maybe use the following:
o No netisr.h.
o Spelling fix.
o Delay to read the Rebooting message.
o Fix for vm system unmapping a reduced area of memory
after bounds_check_with_label() reduces the size of
a physical i/o for a partition boundary. A similar
fix is required in kern_physio.c.
o Correct use of __CONCAT. It never worked here for non-
ANSI cpp's. Is it time to drop support for non-ANSI?
o gdt_segs init. 0xffffffffUL is bogus because ssd_limit
is not 32 bits. The replacement may have the same
value :-), but is more natural.
o physmem was one page too low. Confusing variable names.
Don't use the following:
o Better numbers of buffers. Each 8K page requires up to
16 buffer headers. On my system, this results in 5576
buffers containing [up to] 2854912 bytes of memory.
The usual allocation of about 384 buffers only holds
192K of disk if you use it on an fs with a block size
of 512.
o gdt changes for bdb.
o *TGT -> *IDT changes for bdb.
o #ifdefed changes for bdb.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/microtime.s:
o Use the correct asm macros. I think asm.h was copied from Mach
just for microtime and isn't used now. It certainly doesn't
belong in <sys>. Various macros are also duplicated in
sys/i386/boot.h and libc/i386/*.h.
o Don't switch to and from the IRR; it is guaranteed to be selected
(default after ICU init and explicitly selected in isa.c too, and
never changed until the old microtime clobbered it).
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/support.s:
o Non-essential changes (none related to spls or profiling).
o Removed slow loads of %gs again. The LDT support may require
not relying on %gs, but loading it is not the way to fix it!
Some places (copyin ...) forgot to load it. Loading it clobbers
the user %gs. trap() still loads it after certain types of
faults so that fuword() etc can rely on it without loading it
explicitly. Exception handlers don't restore it. If we want
to preserve the user %gs, then the fastest method is to not
touch it except for context switches. Comparing with
VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS and branching takes only 2 or 4 cycles on
a 486, while loading %gs takes 9 cycles and using it takes
another.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/swtch.s:
o Move spl0() outside of idle loop.
o Remove cli/sti from idle loop. sw1 does a cli, and in the
unlikely event of an interrupt occurring and whichqs becoming
zero, sw1 will just jump back to _idle.
o There's no spl0() function in asm any more, so use splz().
o swtch() doesn't need to be superaligned, at least with the
new mcounting.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
o Removed astoff().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/trap.c:
o The decentralized extern decls were inconsistent, of course.
o Fixed typo MATH_EMULTATE in comments. */
o Removed unused variables.
o Old netmask is now impmask; print it instead. Perhaps we
should print some of the new masks.
o BTW, trap() should not print anything for normal debugger
traps.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/asmacros.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. Just use some of the null macros
as necessary.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpu.h:
o CLKF_BASEPRI() changes since cpl == SWI_AST_MASK is now normal
while the kernel is running.
o Don't use var++ to set boolean variables. It fails after a mere
4G times :-) and is slower than storing a constant on [3-4]86s.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpufunc.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the include of
<machine/ipl.h>. Unfortunately, <machine/ipl.h> is needed by
almost everything for the inlines.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/ipl.h:
o New file. Defines spl inlines and SWI macros and declares most
variables related to hard and soft interrupt masks.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.h:
o Moved definitions to <machine/ipl.h>
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.s:
o Software interrupts (SWIs) and delayed hardware interrupts (HWIs)
are now handled uniformally, and dispatching them from splx() is
more like dispatching them from _doreti. The dispatcher is
essentially *(handler[ffs(ipending & ~cpl)]().
o More care (not quite enough) is taken to avoid unbounded nesting
of interrupts.
o The interface to softclock() is changed so that a trap frame is
not required.
o Fast interrupt handlers are now handled more uniformally.
Configuration is still too early (new handlers would require
bits in <machine/ipl.h> and functions to vector.s).
o splnnn() and splx() are no longer here; they are inline functions
(could be macros for other compilers). splz() is the nontrivial
part of the old splx().
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/ipl.h
o New file. Supposed to have only bus-dependent stuff. Perhaps
the h/w masks should be declared here.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need only things involving
*mask and *MASK and comments about them. netmask is now a pure
software mask. It works like the softclock mask.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/vector.s:
o Reorganize AUTO_EOI* macros.
o Option FAST_INTR_HANDLER_USERS_ES for people who don't trust
fastintr handlers.
o fastintr handlers need to metamorphose into ordinary interrupt
handlers if their SWI bit has become set. Previously, sio had
unintended latency for handling output completions and input
of SLIP framing characters because this was not done.
/usr/src/sys/net/netisr.h:
o The machine-dependent stuff is now imported from <machine/ipl.h>.
/usr/src/sys/sys/systm.h
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the different
splx() prototype. The spl*() prototypes are duplicated as
inlines in <machine/ipl.h> but they need to be duplicated here
in case there are no inlines. I sent systm.h and cpufunc.h
to Garrett. We agree that spl0 should be replaced by splnone
and not the other way around like I've done.
/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_clock.c
o splsoftclock() now lowers cpl so the direct call to softclock()
works as intended.
o softclock() interface changed to avoid passing the whole frame
(some machines may need another change for profile_tick()).
o profiling renamed _profiling to avoid ANSI namespace pollution.
(I had to improve the mcount() interface and may as well fix it.)
The GUPROF variant doesn't actually reference profiling here,
but the 'U' in GUPROF should mean to select the microtimer
mcount() and not change the interface.
Added support of DONET({IMP,NS,ISO}) so you can now compile with options
NS and ISO, still missing some IMP code, but since the imp is old and
gone I doubt this will ever be used.
