- This is heavily derived from John Baldwin's apic/pci cleanup on i386.
- I have completely rewritten or drastically cleaned up some other parts.
(in particular, bootstrap)
- This is still a WIP. It seems that there are some highly bogus bioses
on nVidia nForce3-150 boards. I can't stress how broken these boards
are. I have a workaround in mind, but right now the Asus SK8N is broken.
The Gigabyte K8NPro (nVidia based) is also mind-numbingly hosed.
- Most of my testing has been with SCHED_ULE. SCHED_4BSD works.
- the apic and acpi components are 'standard'.
- If you have an nVidia nForce3-150 board, you are stuck with 'device
atpic' in addition, because they somehow managed to forget to connect the
8254 timer to the apic, even though its in the same silicon! ARGH!
This directly violates the ACPI spec.
longer uses these interrupt vectors for its ISA interrupt pins, so these
entries will not be overwritten. If we get a spurious interrupt from the
ATPIC when using the APIC, it will be treated as a stray interrupt instead
of causing a panic.
vector stubs and into the C functions they call.
- Move disabling and EOIing of interrupt sources out of PIC driver entry
points and into intr_execute_handlers(). Intr_execute_handlers() only
disables a source for an interrupt if it is a stray interrupt or has
threaded handlers. Sources with fast handlers no longer disable (mask)
the source while executing the handlers.
- Move the setting of clkintr_pending into intr_execute_handlers() and set
the variable for any interrupt source with a vector of 0. (Should only
be true for IRQ 0.) This fixes clkintr_pending in the NO_MIXED_MODE
case.
- Implement lapic_eoi() and use it to implement ioapic_eoi_source().
- Rename atpic_sched_ithd() to atpic_handle_intr() since it is used to
handle all atpic interrupts and not just threaded ones.

default we provide 16 interrupt sources for IRQs 0 through 15. However,
if the I/O APIC driver has already registered sources for any of those IRQs
then we will silently fail to register our own source for that IRQ.
Note that i386/isa/icu.h is now specific to the 8259A and no longer
contains any info relevant to APICs. Also note that fast interrupts no
longer use a separate entry point. Instead, both fast and threaded
interrupts share the same entry point which merely looks up the appropriate
source and passes control to intr_execute_handlers().
initialize a TSC timecounter until we know if it is broke or not.
XXX I think there is a bug in the i386 code here. init_TSC_tc() comes
after:
if (statclock_disable)
return;
ie: if you turn off the statclock interrupt, you dont get the TSC either.

This also removes the need for recursion on clock_lock.
value on entry and exit. This isn't as easy as it sounds because when
we recursively trap or interrupt, we have to avoid duplicating the
swapgs instruction or we end up back with the userland %gs. I implemented
this by testing TF_CS to see if we're coming from supervisor mode
already, and check for returning to supervisor. To avoid a race with
interrupts in the brief period after beginning executing the handler and
before the swapgs, convert all trap gates to interrupt gates, and reenable
interrupts immediately after the swapgs. I am not happy with this.
There are other possible ways to do this that should be investigated.
(eg: storing the GS.base MSR value in the trapframe)
Add some sysarch functions to let the userland code get to this.

a heavily stripped down FreeBSD/i386 (brutally stripped down actually) to
attempt to get a stable base to start from. There is a lot missing still.
Worth noting:
- The kernel runs at 1GB in order to cheat with the pmap code. pmap uses
a variation of the PAE code in order to avoid having to worry about 4
levels of page tables yet.
- It boots in 64 bit "long mode" with a tiny trampoline embedded in the
i386 loader. This simplifies locore.s greatly.
- There are still quite a few fragments of i386-specific code that have
not been translated yet, and some that I cheated and wrote dumb C
versions of (bcopy etc).
- It has both int 0x80 for syscalls (but using registers for argument
passing, as is native on the amd64 ABI), and the 'syscall' instruction
for syscalls. int 0x80 preserves all registers, 'syscall' does not.
- I have tried to minimize looking at the NetBSD code, except in a couple
of places (eg: to find which register they use to replace the trashed
%rcx register in the syscall instruction). As a result, there is not a
lot of similarity. I did look at NetBSD a few times while debugging to
get some ideas about what I might have done wrong in my first attempt.
to take care of the KAME IPv6 code which needs ovbcopy() because NetBSD's
bcopy() doesn't handle overlap like ours.
Remove all implementations of ovbcopy().
Previously, bzero was a function pointer on i386, to save a jmp to
bzero_vector. Get rid of this microoptimization as it only confuses
things, adds machine-dependent code to an MD header, and doesn't really
save all that much.
This commit does not add my pagezero() / pagecopy() code.
as it could be and can do with some more cleanup. Currently its under
options LAZY_SWITCH. What this does is avoid %cr3 reloads for short
context switches that do not involve another user process. ie: we can
take an interrupt, switch to a kthread and return to the user without
explicitly flushing the tlb. However, this isn't as exciting as it could
be, the interrupt overhead is still high and too much blocks on Giant
still. There are some debug sysctls, for stats and for an on/off switch.
The main problem with doing this has been "what if the process that you're
running on exits while we're borrowing its address space?" - in this case
we use an IPI to give it a kick when we're about to reclaim the pmap.
Its not compiled in unless you add the LAZY_SWITCH option. I want to fix a
few more things and get some more feedback before turning it on by default.
This is NOT a replacement for Bosko's lazy interrupt stuff. This was more
meant for the kthread case, while his was for interrupts. Mine helps a
little for interrupts, but his helps a lot more.
The stats are enabled with options SWTCH_OPTIM_STATS - this has been a
pseudo-option for years, I just added a bunch of stuff to it.
One non-trivial change was to select a new thread before calling
cpu_switch() in the first place. This allows us to catch the silly
case of doing a cpu_switch() to the current process. This happens
uncomfortably often. This simplifies a bit of the asm code in cpu_switch
(no longer have to call choosethread() in the middle). This has been
implemented on i386 and (thanks to jake) sparc64. The others will come
soon. This is actually seperate to the lazy switch stuff.

where physical addresses larger than virtual addresses, such as i386s
with PAE.
- Use this to represent physical addresses in the MI vm system and in the
i386 pmap code. This also changes the paddr parameter to d_mmap_t.
- Fix printf formats to handle physical addresses >4G in the i386 memory
detection code, and due to kvtop returning vm_paddr_t instead of u_long.
Note that this is a name change only; vm_paddr_t is still the same as
vm_offset_t on all currently supported platforms.

statclock based on profhz when profiling is enabled MD, since most platforms
don't use this anyway. This removes the need for statclock_process, whose
only purpose was to subdivide profhz, and gets the profiling clock running
outside of sched_lock on platforms that implement suswintr.
Also changed the interface for starting and stopping the profiling clock to
do just that, instead of changing the rate of statclock, since they can now
be separate.
