Add comments.
This code is mostly taken from the 1.1 port (which was in turn taken from
Dave Mills's kern.tar.Z example). A few significant differences:
1) ntp_gettime() is now a MIB variable rather than a system call. A few
fiddles are done in libc to make it behave the same.
2) mono_time does not participate in the PLL adjustments.
3) A new interface has been defined (in <machine/clock.h>) for doing
possibly machine-dependent things around the time of the clock update.
This is used in Pentium kernels to disable interrupts, set `time', and
reset the CPU cycle counter as quickly as possible to avoid jitter in
microtime(). Measurements show an apparent resolution of a bit more than
8.14usec, which is reasonable given system-call overhead.

First round of floppy changes. Try making `fd' more robust.
New features:
. ioctl command for setting the drive type (density etc.); restricted
to the super-user
. ioctl for getting/seting `drive options'; currently only option
is FDOPT_NORETRY: inhibit the usual retries; used when verifying
a newly formatted track
Fixes:
. function prototypes
. made all internal functions `static'
. cleaned up & corrected .h files
. restructured, to make the chaotic function sequence more rational
. compiled with -Wall, and cleared all warnings
. introduced a mirror for the (write-only) `digital output register',
to avoid the current kludge
. device probing completed by seeking/recalibrating, and looking
for track 0 being found
. holding the controller down in reset state while it is idle (and
thus saving allot of headaches)
. make requests fail that are not a multiple of the (physical)
sector size
. removed the fixed physical sector size (512 bytes), allowing for any
size the controller could handle (128/256/512/1024 bytes)
. replaced some silly messages
. fixed the TRACE* macro usage, debugging reports should be complete
now again (debugging output is HUGE! though)
. removed fd_timeout for SEEK command; seeks are always reported by
the controller to succeed, since the `success' only refers to the
controller's idea of success - there is no hardware line to tell about
the seek end (other than the `track 0' line)
. catch SENSEI's that report about a `terminated due to READY changed'
status - could happen after a controller reset
. converted ``hz / <something>'' divide operations to divisors that are
powers of two, so gcc can optimize them into shifts
. write/format operations are checked against a write-protected medium
now *prior* starting the operation
. error reports of `invalid command' and `wrong cylinder' will cause
shortcuts in the retrier() now
. fixed a bug in the retrier() causing bogus block numbers to be reported
. fdformat() does care for errors now
Known Bugs:
. no attempts have been made (yet) to improve the performance
. sometimes, bogus ``seek/recalib failed'' messages are logged; this
is still a bug in the driver, but it's not harmful since it's
usually caught by the retrier()

3) changed vestige of splnet use in if_is to splimp.
4) got rid of "impmask" completely (Bruce had gotten rid of netmask),

5) dozens of minor cruft to glue in Bruce's changes.

-DG
from Bruce Evans:
sio:
o No diff is supplied. Remove the define of setsofttty(). I hope
that is enough.
*.s:
o i386/isa/debug.h no longer exists. The event counters became too
much trouble to maintain. All function call entry and exception
entry counters can be recovered by using profiling kernel (the new
profiling supports all entry points; however, it is too slow to
leave enabled all the time; it also). Only BDBTRAP() from debug.h
is now used. That is moved to exception.s. It might be worth
preserving SHOW_BITS() and calling it from _mcount() (if enabled).
o T_ASTFLT is now only set just before calling trap().
o All exception handlers set SWI_AST_MASK in cpl as soon as possible
after entry and arrange for _doreti to restore it atomically with
exiting. It is not possible to set it atomically with entering
the kernel, so it must be checked against the user mode bits in
the trap frame before committing to using it. There is no place
to store the old value of cpl for syscalls or traps, so there are
some complications restoring it.
Profiling stuff (mostly in *.s):
o Changes to kern/subr_mcount.c, gcc and gprof are not supplied yet.
o All interesting labels `foo' are renamed `_foo' and all
uninteresting labels `_bar' are renamed `bar'. A small change
to gprof allows ignoring labels not starting with underscores.
o MCOUNT_LABEL() is to provide names for counters for times spent
in exception handlers.
o FAKE_MCOUNT() is a version of MCOUNT() suitable for exception
handlers. Its arg is the pc where the exception occurred. The
new mcount() pretends that this was a call from that pc to a
suitable MCOUNT_LABEL().
o MEXITCOUNT is to turn off any timer started by MCOUNT().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/exception.s:
o The non-BDB BPTTRAP() macros were doing a sti even when interrupts
were disabled when the trap occurred. The sti (fixed) sti is
actually a no-op unless you have my changes to machdep.c that make
the debugger trap gates interrupt gates, but fixing that would
make the ifdefs messier. ddb seems to be unharmed by both
interrupts always disabled and always enabled (I had the branch in
the fix back to front for some time :-().
o There is no known pushal bug.
o tf_err can be left as garbage for syscalls.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/locore.s:
o Fix and update BDE_DEBUGGER support.
o ENTRY(btext) before initialization was dangerous.
o Warm boot shot was longer than intended.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/machdep.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. It's what I'm using, but may require
other changes.
Use the following:
o Remove aston() and setsoftclock().
Maybe use the following:
o No netisr.h.
o Spelling fix.
o Delay to read the Rebooting message.
o Fix for vm system unmapping a reduced area of memory
after bounds_check_with_label() reduces the size of
a physical i/o for a partition boundary. A similar
fix is required in kern_physio.c.
o Correct use of __CONCAT. It never worked here for non-
ANSI cpp's. Is it time to drop support for non-ANSI?
o gdt_segs init. 0xffffffffUL is bogus because ssd_limit
is not 32 bits. The replacement may have the same
value :-), but is more natural.
o physmem was one page too low. Confusing variable names.
Don't use the following:
o Better numbers of buffers. Each 8K page requires up to
16 buffer headers. On my system, this results in 5576
buffers containing [up to] 2854912 bytes of memory.
The usual allocation of about 384 buffers only holds
192K of disk if you use it on an fs with a block size
of 512.
o gdt changes for bdb.
o *TGT -> *IDT changes for bdb.
o #ifdefed changes for bdb.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/microtime.s:
o Use the correct asm macros. I think asm.h was copied from Mach
just for microtime and isn't used now. It certainly doesn't
belong in <sys>. Various macros are also duplicated in
sys/i386/boot.h and libc/i386/*.h.
o Don't switch to and from the IRR; it is guaranteed to be selected
(default after ICU init and explicitly selected in isa.c too, and
never changed until the old microtime clobbered it).
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/support.s:
o Non-essential changes (none related to spls or profiling).
o Removed slow loads of %gs again. The LDT support may require
not relying on %gs, but loading it is not the way to fix it!
Some places (copyin ...) forgot to load it. Loading it clobbers
the user %gs. trap() still loads it after certain types of
faults so that fuword() etc can rely on it without loading it
explicitly. Exception handlers don't restore it. If we want
to preserve the user %gs, then the fastest method is to not
touch it except for context switches. Comparing with
VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS and branching takes only 2 or 4 cycles on
a 486, while loading %gs takes 9 cycles and using it takes
another.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/swtch.s:
o Move spl0() outside of idle loop.
o Remove cli/sti from idle loop. sw1 does a cli, and in the
unlikely event of an interrupt occurring and whichqs becoming
zero, sw1 will just jump back to _idle.
o There's no spl0() function in asm any more, so use splz().
o swtch() doesn't need to be superaligned, at least with the
new mcounting.
o Fixed a signed branch to unsigned.
o Removed astoff().
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/trap.c:
o The decentralized extern decls were inconsistent, of course.
o Fixed typo MATH_EMULTATE in comments. */
o Removed unused variables.
o Old netmask is now impmask; print it instead. Perhaps we
should print some of the new masks.
o BTW, trap() should not print anything for normal debugger
traps.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/asmacros.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. Just use some of the null macros
as necessary.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpu.h:
o CLKF_BASEPRI() changes since cpl == SWI_AST_MASK is now normal
while the kernel is running.
o Don't use var++ to set boolean variables. It fails after a mere
4G times :-) and is slower than storing a constant on [3-4]86s.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/cpufunc.h:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the include of
<machine/ipl.h>. Unfortunately, <machine/ipl.h> is needed by
almost everything for the inlines.
/usr/src/sys/i386/include/ipl.h:
o New file. Defines spl inlines and SWI macros and declares most
variables related to hard and soft interrupt masks.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.h:
o Moved definitions to <machine/ipl.h>
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/icu.s:
o Software interrupts (SWIs) and delayed hardware interrupts (HWIs)
are now handled uniformally, and dispatching them from splx() is
more like dispatching them from _doreti. The dispatcher is
essentially *(handler[ffs(ipending & ~cpl)]().
o More care (not quite enough) is taken to avoid unbounded nesting
of interrupts.
o The interface to softclock() is changed so that a trap frame is
not required.
o Fast interrupt handlers are now handled more uniformally.
Configuration is still too early (new handlers would require
bits in <machine/ipl.h> and functions to vector.s).
o splnnn() and splx() are no longer here; they are inline functions
(could be macros for other compilers). splz() is the nontrivial
part of the old splx().
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/ipl.h
o New file. Supposed to have only bus-dependent stuff. Perhaps
the h/w masks should be declared here.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa.c:
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need only things involving
*mask and *MASK and comments about them. netmask is now a pure
software mask. It works like the softclock mask.
/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/vector.s:
o Reorganize AUTO_EOI* macros.
o Option FAST_INTR_HANDLER_USERS_ES for people who don't trust
fastintr handlers.
o fastintr handlers need to metamorphose into ordinary interrupt
handlers if their SWI bit has become set. Previously, sio had
unintended latency for handling output completions and input
of SLIP framing characters because this was not done.
/usr/src/sys/net/netisr.h:
o The machine-dependent stuff is now imported from <machine/ipl.h>.
/usr/src/sys/sys/systm.h
o DON'T APPLY ALL OF THIS DIFF. You need mainly the different
splx() prototype. The spl*() prototypes are duplicated as
inlines in <machine/ipl.h> but they need to be duplicated here
in case there are no inlines. I sent systm.h and cpufunc.h
to Garrett. We agree that spl0 should be replaced by splnone
and not the other way around like I've done.
/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_clock.c
o splsoftclock() now lowers cpl so the direct call to softclock()
works as intended.
o softclock() interface changed to avoid passing the whole frame
(some machines may need another change for profile_tick()).
o profiling renamed _profiling to avoid ANSI namespace pollution.
(I had to improve the mcount() interface and may as well fix it.)
The GUPROF variant doesn't actually reference profiling here,
but the 'U' in GUPROF should mean to select the microtimer
mcount() and not change the interface.
Eliminates vm_fault overhead on process startup and
mmap referenced data for in-memory pages.
(process startup time using in-memory segments *much* faster)
2) Even more efficient pmap code. Code partially cleaned up.
More comments yet to follow.
(generally more efficient pte management)
3) Pageout clustering ( in addition to the FreeBSD V1.1 pagein
clustering.)
(much faster paging performance on non-write behind disk
subsystems, slightly faster performance on other systems.)
4) Slightly changed vm_pageout code for more efficiency and
better statistics. Also, resist swapout a little more.
(less likely to pageout a recently used page)
5) Slight improvement to the page table page trap efficiency.
(generally faster system VM fault performance)
6) Defer creation of unnamed anonymous regions pager until needed.
(speeds up shared memory bss creation)
7) Remove possible deadlock from swap_pager initialization.
8) Enhanced procfs to provide "vminfo" about vm objects and user
pmaps.
9) Increased MCLSHIFT/MCLBYTES from 2K to 4K to improve net &
socket performance and to prepare for things to come.

Subject: syscons-1.3
Date: Sat, 29 Jan 94 23:33:50 MET
But here is the (hopefully) final syscons-1.3....
....
I've changed sgetc so it works as the pccons parallel
(it now uses a scgetc internally).
[
There were a couple changes that Bruce Evans sent me that were applied
to this version along with some changes that S'ren didn't incorporate
into the final version. There will be only minor changes if anything
from this version to his final release.
]
following is a summary:
1) increased object cache back up to a more reasonable value.
2) removed old & bogus cruft from machdep.c (clearseg, copyseg,
physcopyseg, etc).
3) inlined many functions in pmap.c
4) changed "load_cr3(rcr3())" into tlbflush() and made tlbflush inline
assembly.
5) changed the way that modified pages are tracked - now vm_page struct
is kept updated directly - no more scanning page tables.
6) removed lots of unnecessary spl's
7) removed old unused functions from pmap.c
8) removed all use of page_size, page_shift, page_mask variables - replaced
with PAGE_ constants.
9) moved trunc/round_page, atop, ptoa, out of vm_param.h and into i386/
include/param.h, and optimized them.
10) numerous changes to sys/vm/ swap_pager, vnode_pager, pageout, fault
code to improve performance. LRU algorithm modified to be more
effective, read ahead/behind values tuned for better performance,
etc, etc...
a binary link-kit. Make all non-optional options (pagers, procfs) standard,
and update LINT to reflect new symtab requirements.
NB: -Wtraditional will henceforth be forgotten. This editing pass was
primarily intended to detect any constructions where the old code might
have been relying on traditional C semantics or syntax. These were all
fixed, and the result of fixing some of them means that -Wall is now a
realistic possibility within a few weeks.
The following patch adds the addr argument to signal handlers.
The kernel with the patch is no more and no less in compliance or in
violation of POSIX and ANSI C than the kernel before the patch.
The added functionality this addr argument provides is quite useful. It
enables an entire class of algorithms which use mprotect to trace memory
references. Beside garbage collectors, I have heard of this technique being
applied to debuggers and profilers. The only benchmarking I've performed is
using akcl to compile maxima: without the kernel patch, it takes 7 hours to
compile maxima, while with stratified garbage collection, it only takes 50
minutes.
Basically, I can't think of a reason not to add the addr argument and there
is a compelling need for it.
If you find the patch acceptable, please let me know so I can send my
FreeBSD akcl config files to wfs for inclusion in the core akcl release.
The old 386BSD config files there won't work on either NetBSD or FreeBSD.
