than as one-off hacks in various other parts of the kernel:
- Add a function maybe_preempt() that is called from sched_add() to
determine if a thread about to be added to a run queue should be
preempted to directly. If it is not safe to preempt or if the new
thread does not have a high enough priority, then the function returns
false and sched_add() adds the thread to the run queue. If the thread
should be preempted to but the current thread is in a nested critical
section, then the flag TDF_OWEPREEMPT is set and the thread is added
to the run queue. Otherwise, mi_switch() is called immediately and the
thread is never added to the run queue since it is switch to directly.
When exiting an outermost critical section, if TDF_OWEPREEMPT is set,
then clear it and call mi_switch() to perform the deferred preemption.
- Remove explicit preemption from ithread_schedule() as calling
setrunqueue() now does all the correct work. This also removes the
do_switch argument from ithread_schedule().
- Do not use the manual preemption code in mtx_unlock if the architecture
supports native preemption.
- Don't call mi_switch() in a loop during shutdown to give ithreads a
chance to run if the architecture supports native preemption since
the ithreads will just preempt DELAY().
- Don't call mi_switch() from the page zeroing idle thread for
architectures that support native preemption as it is unnecessary.
- Native preemption is enabled on the same archs that supported ithread
preemption, namely alpha, i386, and amd64.
This change should largely be a NOP for the default case as committed
except that we will do fewer context switches in a few cases and will
avoid the run queues completely when preempting.

wasn't actually clean, it was saving the xmm registers as left over by the
bios. fninit() doesn't clear those.
In fpudna(), instead of doing a fninit() and forgetting to load the initial
mxcsr, do a full fxrstor(&fpu_cleanstate). Otherwise we hand over whatever
random values are left in the xmm registers by the last user.
I'm not certain of whether this is excessive paranoia or not, but there was
an outright bug in neglecting to set the mxcsr value that caused awk to
SIGFPE in some case. Especially for Tim Robbins. :-)
i386 probably should do something about the mxcsr setings too.

pmap_remove() would be called with a huge range and we'd stride across
it in only 2MB chunks. This would manifest as massive cpu time and a
largely unresponsive system during hard swap. Instead, check the higher
page directories which means we can run pmap_remove() in just a few
hundred loop iterations instead of millions since we can process
address space in chunks of 512GB and 1GB as well as 2MB.

of this micro-optimization occurs when we call pmap_enter() to wire an
already mapped page. Because of the micro-optimization, we fail to
mark the PTE as wired. Later, on teardown of the address space,
pmap_remove_pages() destroys the PTE before vm_fault_unwire() has
unwired the page. (pmap_remove_pages() is not supposed to destroy
wired PTEs. They are destroyed by a later call to pmap_remove().)
Thus, the page becomes lost.
Note: The page is not lost if the application called munlock(2), only
if it relies on teardown of the address space to unwire its pages.

gmon and struct gmonhdr was originally just to represent the kernel
(profiling) clock frequency and it remains poorly suited to representing
the frequencies of fast counters like the TSC. It broke a year or two
ago. This quick fix keeps it working for another year or month or two
until TSC frequencies can exceed 2^32, by dividing the frequency by 2.
Dividing the frequency by 4 would work for a little longer but would
lose a little too much precision.

amd64/exception.S. The handlers must be between certain labels for
the purposes of profiling, and this was broken by scattering them in
separately compiled .S files, especially for ordinary functions that
ended up between the labels. Merge the files by #including them as
before, except with different pathnames and better comments and
organization. Changes to the scattered files are minimal -- just
move the labels to the file that does the #includes.
This also partly fixes profiling of IPIs -- all IPI handlers are now
correctly classified as interrupt handlers, but many are still missing
mcount calls.
- perfmon headers must be avoided until perfmon is supported.
- all call-used registers including return registers must be preserved
by .mcount(), etc., not quite as in profile.h. __cyg_profile_func_*()
don't require this, but they are (mis)implemented as aliases for
.mcount(), etc. so they preserve the registers.

- the FAKE_MCOUNT($bintr) in doreti was missing the '$'. This gave a
a garbage address made up of padding bytes (with the nop byte 0x90 as
the MSB) instead of the intended address of bintr. This accidentally
worked on i386's because (0x90 << 24) is close enough to bintr, but
it doesn't work on amd64's because (0x90 << 56) is much further away
from bintr.
- the FAKE_MCOUNT($btrap) in calltrap was similarly broken. It hasn't
been needed since FreeBSD-1, so just delete it.

Fixed missing call to .mexitcount in lgdt(). This was missing on

very unimportant since lgdt() is not (normally?) called until after
profiling is initialized.

the save/restore of the segment selector registers for non 32 bit

However, I suspect it might be better to conditionally do this at

first place. Or have per-thread extended context save/restore hooks.

register controlled the trigger mode and polarity of EISA interrupts.
However, it appears that most (all?) PCI systems use the ELCR to manage
the trigger mode and polarity of ISA interrupts as well since ISA IRQs used
to route PCI interrupts need to be level triggered with active low
polarity. We check to see if the ELCR exists by sanity checking the value
we get back ensuring that IRQS 0 (8254), 1 (atkbd), 2 (the link from the
slave PIC), and 8 (RTC) are all clear indicating edge trigger and active
high polarity.
This mini-driver will be used by the atpic driver to manage the trigger and
polarity of ISA IRQs. Also, the mptable parsing code will use this mini
driver rather than examining the ELCR directly.
