091e8307d0 Add stoppcbs[] arrays on Alpha and sparc64 and have each CPU save its
current context in the IPI_STOP handler so that we can get accurate stack
traces of threads on other CPUs on these two archs like we do now on i386
and amd64.

Tested on:	alpha, sparc64

1aafbc01f9 - Add a new MD per-CPU field for Alpha 'pal_id' which is the PAL ID
associated with each processor.  This ID is inferred from the index
  of the pcs structure in the hwprb.
- Give Alpha CPUs FreeBSD CPU IDs more like other architectures where the
  boot processor is always CPU 0 and the other processors are numbered
  1 ... N.  List active CPUs in the system in cpu_mp_announce() as well.

6937ca29dc Remove IPI_HALT to make way for a more correct fix for halts and restarts
on SMP alphas.

8f01c08a34 Fix reboot hangs that have happened with multiple processors
on Alpha 4100s.

Basically, if you're halting or you're rebooting, you should
tell all other processors to halt first. Define IPI_HALT- IPI_STOP
is not what we want for this purpose, which will call prom_halt(0)
on receipt.

The processor running the halt or reboot wil send an IPI_HALT to all
other processors, delay a bit, then continue to do what what it was
planning on doing (prom_halt({0|1})).

6caa8a1501 Overhaul of the SMP code. Several portions of the SMP kernel support have
been made machine independent and various other adjustments have been made
to support Alpha SMP.

- It splits the per-process portions of hardclock() and statclock() off
  into hardclock_process() and statclock_process() respectively.  hardclock()
  and statclock() call the *_process() functions for the current process so
  that UP systems will run as before.  For SMP systems, it is simply necessary
  to ensure that all other processors execute the *_process() functions when the
  main clock functions are triggered on one CPU by an interrupt.  For the alpha
  4100, clock interrupts are delievered in a staggered broadcast fashion, so
  we simply call hardclock/statclock on the boot CPU and call the *_process()
  functions on the secondaries.  For x86, we call statclock and hardclock as
  usual and then call forward_hardclock/statclock in the MD code to send an IPI
  to cause the AP's to execute forwared_hardclock/statclock which then call the
  *_process() functions.
- forward_signal() and forward_roundrobin() have been reworked to be MI and to
  involve less hackery.  Now the cpu doing the forward sets any flags, etc. and
  sends a very simple IPI_AST to the other cpu(s).  AST IPIs now just basically
  return so that they can execute ast() and don't bother with setting the
  astpending or needresched flags themselves.  This also removes the loop in
  forward_signal() as sched_lock closes the race condition that the loop worked
  around.
- need_resched(), resched_wanted() and clear_resched() have been changed to take
  a process to act on rather than assuming curproc so that they can be used to
  implement forward_roundrobin() as described above.
- Various other SMP variables have been moved to a MI subr_smp.c and a new
  header sys/smp.h declares MI SMP variables and API's.   The IPI API's from
  machine/ipl.h have moved to machine/smp.h which is included by sys/smp.h.
- The globaldata_register() and globaldata_find() functions as well as the
  SLIST of globaldata structures has become MI and moved into subr_smp.c.
  Also, the globaldata list is only available if SMP support is compiled in.

35e0e5b311 Catch up to moving headers:
- machine/ipl.h -> sys/ipl.h
- machine/mutex.h -> sys/mutex.h

0384fff8c5 Major update to the way synchronization is done in the kernel. Highlights
include:

* 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).

27361f297c Try and make the Alpha kernel compile. There are still some loose ends
(eg: common declarations in includes that I think are causing gensetdefs
 warnings) that need to be tied up, but it compiles and runs.
