which are typically XHCI-only. The 32-bit GENERIC kernel, which
does not run on hardware made in the last decade and is unlikely to
encounter XHCI devices, is left unchanged.

Add a fix-up function like on ia32 for MAXDSIZ.
While here, bring also the MAXSSIZ closer to amd64 and add an equal fix-up

is used as the bootloader on a number of PPC64 platforms. This involves the
following pieces:
- Making the first instruction a valid kernel entry point, since kexec
ignores the ELF entry value. This requires a separate section and linker
magic to prevent the linker from filling the beginning of the section
with stubs.
- Adding an entry point at 0x60 past the first instruction for systems
lacking firmware CPU shutdown support (notably PS3).
- Linker script changes to support the above.

If these are not aligned, the linker has to emit a different type of
relocation that the early boot self-relocation code cannot handle, even
in principle, resulting in them being set to zero and the kernel crashing.

draft of a never-finalized standard (CHRP) and is irrelevant in practice
on FreeBSD since we load the kernel with loader(8) on Open Firmware
platforms anyway. Moreover, loader(8), which is directly loaded by Open

the 32-bit cookie can be sign-extended on its way out of the loader and
through Open Firmware. If sign-extended, the in-kernel check of its value
would fail on 64-bit systems, resulting in a mountroot prompt. Solve this
by telling the kernel to ignore the high-order bits.

They provide relaxed-ordered atomic access semantic. Due to the
FreeBSD memory model, the operations are syntaxical wrappers around
the volatile accesses. The volatile qualifier is used to ensure that
the access not optimized out and in turn depends on the volatile
semantic as implemented by supported compilers.
The motivation for adding the operation is to help people coming from
other systems or knowing the C11/C++ standards where atomics have
special type and require use of the special access operations. It is
still the case that FreeBSD requires plain load and stores of aligned
integer types to be atomic.

Currently Facility Unavailable is absent and once an application
tries to use or access a register from a feature disabled in the
CPU it causes a kernel panic.
A simple test-case is:
int main() { asm volatile ("tbegin.;"); }
which will use TM (Hardware Transactional Memory) feature which
is not supported by the kernel and so will trigger the following
kernel panic:
----
fatal user trap:
exception = 0xf60 (unknown)
srr0 = 0x10000890
srr1 = 0x800000000000f032

The DTrace fasttrap entry points expect a struct reg containing the
register values of the calling thread. Perform the conversion in
fasttrap rather than in the trap handler: this reduces the number of
ifdefs and avoids wasting stack space for traps that don't involve
DTrace.

pmap_track_page() only works with physical memory pages, which have a
constant vm_page_t address. Microoptimize pmap_track_page() to perform one
less operation under the lock.
This was done in 32-bit mode, but not duplicated when 64-bit mode was
brought in. Without this, stale mappings can be left, leading to odd
crashes when the wrong VA is checked in XX_PhysToVirt() (dpaa(4)).
This variable should be pure MI except possibly for reading it in MD
dump routines. Its initialization was pure MD in 4.4BSD, but FreeBSD
changed this in r36441 in 1998. There were many imperfections in
r36441. This commit fixes only a small one, to simplify fixing the
others 1 arch at a time. (r47678 added support for
special/early/multiple message buffer initialization which I want in
a more general form, but this was too fragile to use because hacking
on the msgbufp global corrupted it, and was only used for 5 hours in
-current...)
The Display Interface Unit (DIU) uses main memory for the framebuffer, which
is already mapped as cache coherent physical memory. Prevent mmap() from
using its own attributes which may otherwise conflict.
Devices aren't mapped within the KVA, and with the way 64-bit hashes the
addresses pte_vatopa() may not return a 0 physical address for a device.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
This allows modules creating mappings to be loaded post-boot, after SMP has
started. Without this, the TLB1 mappings can become unsynchronized and lead
to kernel page faults when accessed on the alternate CPUs.

PowerPC kernels in r6 is actually metadata from loader(8) or gibberish
left in r6, which is not required to be anything under the
PAPR/ePAPR/CHRP/OF standards, by another boot loader.
Note that, as a result, systems need a new boot loader to boot PPC kernels
after this revision without ending up at a mountroot prompt. New boot
loaders are backwards compatible and can boot older kernels.
