development that leads to lots of crashes during boot.
I have made a 'reinstall' target (like in ports, and reinstall.debug)
This is most useful if you want to keep /kernel.old as a known bootable
kernel. If you test a new kernel and have to reboot for a fix, a
'make reinstall' will install the new kernel over the top of the old
non-viable one, leaving the old one untouched. This is mainly meant
for development, not general users.
Made a new (inline) function devsw(dev_t dev) and substituted it.
Changed to the BDEV variant to this format as well: bdevsw(dev_t dev)
DEVFS will eventually benefit from this change too.
Virtualize bdevsw[] from cdevsw. bdevsw() is now an (inline)
function.
Join CDEV_MODULE and BDEV_MODULE to DEV_MODULE (please pay attention
to the order of the cmaj/bmaj arguments!)
Join CDEV_DRIVER_MODULE and BDEV_DRIVER_MODULE to DEV_DRIVER_MODULE
(ditto!)
(Next step will be to convert all bdev dev_t's to cdev dev_t's
before they get to do any damage^H^H^H^H^H^Hwork in the kernel.)
* Make the network code in the bootstrap more chatty (helps debugging)
* Add nfs root stuff to cpu_rootconf(). I also added a check to make sure
it really was netbooting which allows the use of the same kernel for local
and network boots.
* Tweak the de driver so that it takes the speed setting from the console
for the alpha (some PWSs have broken de chipsets). This is the same
behaviour as NetBSD/alpha.

- %fs register is added to trapframe and saved/restored upon kernel entry/exit.
- Per-cpu pages are no longer mapped at the same virtual address.
- Each cpu now has a separate gdt selector table. A new segment selector
is added to point to per-cpu pages, per-cpu global variables are now
accessed through this new selector (%fs). The selectors in gdt table are
rearranged for cache line optimization.
- fask_vfork is now on as default for both UP and SMP.
- Some aio code cleanup.

Note: the PNIC ignores the lower few bits of the RX buffer DMA address,
which means we have to add yet another kludge to make it happy. Since
we can't offset the packet data, we copy the first few bytes of the
received data into a separate mbuf with proper alignment. This puts
the IP header where it needs to be to prevent unaligned accesses.
Also modified the PNIC driver to use a non-interrupt driven TX
strategy. This improves performance somewhat on x86/SMP systems where
interrupt delivery doesn't seem to be as fast with an SMP kernel as

- Refined internal interface in keyboard drivers so that:
1. the side effect of device probe is kept minimal,
2. polling mode function is added,

PQ_FREE. There is little operational difference other then the kernel
being a few kilobytes smaller and the code being more readable.
* vm_page_select_free() has been *greatly* simplified.
* The PQ_ZERO page queue and supporting structures have been removed
* vm_page_zero_idle() revamped (see below)
PG_ZERO setting and clearing has been migrated from vm_page_alloc()
to vm_page_free[_zero]() and will eventually be guarenteed to remain
tracked throughout a page's life ( if it isn't already ).
When a page is freed, PG_ZERO pages are appended to the appropriate
tailq in the PQ_FREE queue while non-PG_ZERO pages are prepended.
When locating a new free page, PG_ZERO selection operates from within
vm_page_list_find() ( get page from end of queue instead of beginning
of queue ) and then only occurs in the nominal critical path case. If
the nominal case misses, both normal and zero-page allocation devolves
into the same _vm_page_list_find() select code without any specific
zero-page optimizations.
Additionally, vm_page_zero_idle() has been revamped. Hysteresis has been
added and zero-page tracking adjusted to conform with the other changes.
Currently hysteresis is set at 1/3 (lo) and 1/2 (hi) the number of free
pages. We may wish to increase both parameters as time permits. The
hysteresis is designed to avoid silly zeroing in borderline allocation/free
situations.

solves problems on large-memory systems that have a high value for
MAXDSIZ.
The load address is controlled by a new macro ELF_RTLD_ADDR(vmspace).
On the i386 it is hard-wired to 0x08000000, which is the standard
SVR4 location for the dynamic linker.
On the Alpha, the dynamic linker is loaded MAXDSIZ bytes beyond
the start of the program's data segment. This is the same place
a userland mmap(0, ...) call would put it, so it ends up just below
all the shared libraries. The rationale behind the calculation is
that it allows room for the data segment to grow to its maximum
possible size.
These changes have been tested on the i386 for several months
without problems. They have been tested on the Alpha as well,
though not for nearly as long. I would like to merge the changes
into 3.1 within a week if no problems have surfaced as a result of
them.

|2) Add what appears to be appropriate code the the alpha branch, still

XXX configure_start() and configure_end() seem to be a bit excessive.. both

Iprobe is an alpha-only system profiling suite which I'm porting from
Linux/alpha to FreeBSD.
Iprobe works by using the hardware profiling support built into
alpha cpus. In a nutshell, what Iprobe does is to setup the alpha
performance counters to sample the pc at a fairly high rate & dumps
those pc samples out to user space. Then some code runs to map the
sampled PCs to functions. You get a bit more than that (like the PSL
word, so you can tell if you're in the kernel or userland, what the
ipl is, etc).
