d74ac6819b Compromise for critical*()/cpu_critical*() recommit. Cleanup the interrupt
disablement assumptions in kern_fork.c by adding another API call,
cpu_critical_fork_exit().  Cleanup the td_savecrit field by moving it
from MI to MD.  Temporarily move cpu_critical*() from <arch>/include/cpufunc.h
to <arch>/<arch>/critical.c (stage-2 will clean this up).

Implement interrupt deferral for i386 that allows interrupts to remain
enabled inside critical sections.  This also fixes an IPI interlock bug,
and requires uses of icu_lock to be enclosed in a true interrupt disablement.

This is the stage-1 commit.  Stage-2 will occur after stage-1 has stabilized,
and will move cpu_critical*() into its own header file(s) + other things.
This commit may break non-i386 architectures in trivial ways.  This should
be temporary.

0bbc882680 Overhaul the per-CPU support a bit:
- 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.

268bdb43f9 Optionize UPAGES for the i386. As part of this I split some of the low
level implementation stuff out of machine/globaldata.h to avoid exposing
UPAGES to lots more places.  The end result is that we can double
the kernel stack size with 'options UPAGES=4' etc.

This is mainly being done for the benefit of a MFC to RELENG_4 at some
point.  -current doesn't really need this so much since each interrupt
runs on its own kstack.

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.

192846463a Rework the witness code to work with sx locks as well as mutexes.
- Introduce lock classes and lock objects.  Each lock class specifies a
  name and set of flags (or properties) shared by all locks of a given
  type.  Currently there are three lock classes: spin mutexes, sleep
  mutexes, and sx locks.  A lock object specifies properties of an
  additional lock along with a lock name and all of the extra stuff needed
  to make witness work with a given lock.  This abstract lock stuff is
  defined in sys/lock.h.  The lockmgr constants, types, and prototypes have
  been moved to sys/lockmgr.h.  For temporary backwards compatability,
  sys/lock.h includes sys/lockmgr.h.
- Replace proc->p_spinlocks with a per-CPU list, PCPU(spinlocks), of spin
  locks held.  By making this per-cpu, we do not have to jump through
  magic hoops to deal with sched_lock changing ownership during context
  switches.
- Replace proc->p_heldmtx, formerly a list of held sleep mutexes, with
  proc->p_sleeplocks, which is a list of held sleep locks including sleep
  mutexes and sx locks.
- Add helper macros for logging lock events via the KTR_LOCK KTR logging
  level so that the log messages are consistent.
- Add some new flags that can be passed to mtx_init():
  - MTX_NOWITNESS - specifies that this lock should be ignored by witness.
    This is used for the mutex that blocks a sx lock for example.
  - MTX_QUIET - this is not new, but you can pass this to mtx_init() now
    and no events will be logged for this lock, so that one doesn't have
    to change all the individual mtx_lock/unlock() operations.
- All lock objects maintain an initialized flag.  Use this flag to export
  a mtx_initialized() macro that can be safely called from drivers.  Also,
  we on longer walk the all_mtx list if MUTEX_DEBUG is defined as witness
  performs the corresponding checks using the initialized flag.
- The lock order reversal messages have been improved to output slightly
  more accurate file and line numbers.

f8761e53a7 Implement accessors for per-cpu variables which don't depend on the
symbols in globals.s.

	PCPU_GET(name) returns the value of the per-cpu variable
	PCPU_PTR(name) returns a pointer to the per-cpu variable
	PCPU_SET(name, val) sets the value of the per-cpu variable

In general these are not yet used, compatibility macros remain.

Unifdef SMP struct globaldata, this makes variables such as cpuid
available for UP as well.

Rebuilding modules is probably a good idea, but I believe old
modules will still work, as most of the old infrastructure
remains.

41ed17bfec Use %fs to access per-cpu variables in uni-processor kernels the same
as multi-processor kernels.  The old way made it difficult for kernel
modules to be portable between uni-processor and multi-processor
kernels.  It is no longer necessary to jump through hoops.

- always load %fs with the private segment on entry to the kernel
- change the type of the self referntial pointer from struct privatespace
  to struct globaldata
- make the globaldata symbol have value 0 in all cases, so the symbols
  in globals.s are always offsets, not aliases for fields in globaldata
- define the globaldata space used for uniprocessor kernels in C, rather
  than assembler
- change the assmebly language accessors to use %fs, add a macro
  PCPU_ADDR(member, reg), which loads the register reg with the address
  of the per-cpu variable member

6c56727456 - Change fast interrupts on x86 to push a full interrupt frame and to
return through doreti to handle ast's.  This is necessary for the
  clock interrupts to work properly.
- Change the clock interrupts on the x86 to be fast instead of threaded.
  This is needed because both hardclock() and statclock() need to run in
  the context of the current process, not in a separate thread context.
- Kill the prevproc hack as it is no longer needed.
- We really need Giant when we call psignal(), but we don't want to block
  during the clock interrupt.  Instead, use two p_flag's in the proc struct
  to mark the current process as having a pending SIGVTALRM or a SIGPROF
  and let them be delivered during ast() when hardclock() has finished
  running.
- Remove CLKF_BASEPRI, which was #ifdef'd out on the x86 anyways.  It was
  broken on the x86 if it was turned on since cpl is gone.  It's only use
  was to bogusly run softclock() directly during hardclock() rather than
  scheduling an SWI.
- Remove the COM_LOCK simplelock and replace it with a clock_lock spin
  mutex.  Since the spin mutex already handles disabling/restoring
  interrupts appropriately, this also lets us axe all the *_intr() fu.
- Back out the hacks in the APIC_IO x86 cpu_initclocks() code to use
  temporary fast interrupts for the APIC trial.
- Add two new process flags P_ALRMPEND and P_PROFPEND to mark the pending
  signals in hardclock() that are to be delivered in ast().

36e9f877df Commit major SMP cleanups and move the BGL (big giant lock) in the
syscall path inward.  A system call may select whether it needs the MP
    lock or not (the default being that it does need it).

    A great deal of conditional SMP code for various deadended experiments
    has been removed.  'cil' and 'cml' have been removed entirely, and the
    locking around the cpl has been removed.  The conditional
    separately-locked fast-interrupt code has been removed, meaning that
    interrupts must hold the CPL now (but they pretty much had to anyway).
    Another reason for doing this is that the original separate-lock for
    interrupts just doesn't apply to the interrupt thread mechanism being
    contemplated.

    Modifications to the cpl may now ONLY occur while holding the MP
    lock.  For example, if an otherwise MP safe syscall needs to mess with
    the cpl, it must hold the MP lock for the duration and must (as usual)
    save/restore the cpl in a nested fashion.

    This is precursor work for the real meat coming later: avoiding having
    to hold the MP lock for common syscalls and I/O's and interrupt threads.
    It is expected that the spl mechanisms and new interrupt threading
    mechanisms will be able to run in tandem, allowing a slow piecemeal
    transition to occur.

    This patch should result in a moderate performance improvement due to
    the considerable amount of code that has been removed from the critical
    path, especially the simplification of the spl*() calls.  The real
    performance gains will come later.
