Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
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.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Intel SGX allows to manage isolated compartments "Enclaves" in user VA
space. Enclaves memory is part of processor reserved memory (PRM) and
always encrypted. This allows to protect user application code and data
from upper privilege levels including OS kernel.
This includes SGX driver and optional linux ioctl compatibility layer.
Intel SGX SDK for FreeBSD is also available.
Note this requires support from hardware (available since late Intel
Skylake CPUs).
Many thanks to Robert Watson for support and Konstantin Belousov
for code review.

Some C wrappers for x86 instructions do not touch global memory and only act
on their arguments; they can be marked __pure2, aka __const__. Without this
annotation, Clang 3.9.1 is not intelligent enough on its own to grok that
these functions are __const__.

On the original i386, %dr[4-5] were unimplemented but not very clearly
reserved, so debuggers read them to print them. i386 was still doing
this.
On the original athlon64, %dr[4-5] are documented as reserved but are
aliased to %dr[6-7] unless CR4_DE is set, when accessing them traps.
On 2 of my systems, accessing %dr[4-5] trapped sometimes. On my Haswell
system, the apparent randomness was because the boot CPU starts with
CR4_DE set while all other CPUs start with CR4_DE clear. FreeBSD
doesn't support the data breakpoints enabled by CR4_DE and it never
changes this flag, so the flag remains different across CPUs and
the behaviour seemed inconsistent except while booting when the CPU
doesn't change.
The invalid accesses broke:
- read access for printing the registers in ddb "show watches" on CPUs
with CR4_DE set
- read accesses in fill_dbregs() on CPUs with CR4_DE set. This didn't
implement panic(3) since the user case always skipped %dr[4-5].
- write accesses in set_dbregs(). This also didn't affect userland.
When it didn't trap, the aliasing made it fragile.
Don't print the dummy (zero) values of %dr[4-5] in "show watches" for
i386 or amd64. Fix style bugs near this printing.
amd64 also has space in the dbregs struct for the reserved %dr[8-15]
and already didn't print the dummy values for these, and never accessed
any of the 10 reserved debug registers.
Remove cpufuncs for making the invalid accesses. Even amd64 had these.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

the PG_G global pte flag, pmap_invalidate_all() fails to flush global
TLB entries [*]. This is because TLB shootdown handler for such
configs reloads CR3, and on i386 pmap_invalidate_all() does the same
for the initiating CPU. Note that current code does not issue total
invalidation requests for the kernel_pmap.
Rename amd64 function invltlb_globpcid() to invltlb_glob(), it is not
specific for PCID for quite some time, and implement the same
functionality for i386. Use the function instead of invltlb() in
shootdown handlers and in i386 pmap_invalidate_all(), but only for the
kernel pmap (which maps pages with the PG_G attribute set), which
takes care of PG_G TLB entries on flush.
To detect the affected pmap in i386 TLB shootdown handler, pmap should
be passed to the smp_masked_invltlb() function, which makes amd64 and
i386 TLB shootdown code almost identical. Merge the code under x86/.

the Vahalia' "Unix Internals" section 15.12 "Other TLB Consistency
Algorithms". The same algorithm is already utilized by the MIPS pmap
to handle ASIDs.
The PCID for the address space is now allocated per-cpu during context
switch to the thread using pmap, when no PCID on the cpu was ever
allocated, or the current PCID is invalidated. If the PCID is reused,
bit 63 of %cr3 can be set to avoid TLB flush.
Each cpu has PCID' algorithm generation count, which is saved in the
pmap pcpu block when pcpu PCID is allocated. On invalidation, the
pmap generation count is zeroed, which signals the context switch code
that already allocated PCID is no longer valid. The implication is
the TLB shootdown for the given cpu/address space, due to the
allocation of new PCID.
The pm_save mask is no longer has to be tracked, which (significantly)
reduces the targets of the TLB shootdown IPIs. Previously, pm_save
was reset only on pmap_invalidate_all(), which made it accumulate the
cpuids of all processors on which the thread was scheduled between
full TLB shootdowns.
Besides reducing the amount of TLB shootdowns and removing atomics to
update pm_saves in the context switch code, the algorithm is much
simpler than the maintanence of pm_save and selection of the right
address space in the shootdown IPI handler.

hw.x2apic_enable tunable allows disabling it from the loader prompt.
To closely repeat effects of the uncached memory ops when accessing
registers in the xAPIC mode, the x2APIC writes to MSRs are preceeded
by mfence, except for the EOI notifications. This is probably too
strict, only ICR writes to send IPI require serialization to ensure
that other CPUs see the previous actions when IPI is delivered. This
may be changed later.
In vmm justreturn IPI handler, call doreti_iret instead of doing iretd
inline, to handle corner conditions.
Note that the patch only switches LAPICs into x2APIC mode. It does not
enables FreeBSD to support > 255 CPUs, which requires parsing x2APIC
MADT entries and doing interrupts remapping, but is the required step
on the way.

features of CPUs like reading/writing machine-specific registers,
retrieving cpuid data, and updating microcode.
- Add cpucontrol(8) utility, that provides userland access to
the features of cpuctl(4).
- Add subsequent manpages.
The cpuctl(4) device operates as follows. The pseudo-device node cpuctlX
is created for each cpu present in the systems. The pseudo-device minor
number corresponds to the cpu number in the system. The cpuctl(4) pseudo-
device allows a number of ioctl to be preformed, namely RDMSR/WRMSR/CPUID
and UPDATE. The first pair alows the caller to read/write machine-specific
registers from the correspondent CPU. cpuid data could be retrieved using
the CPUID call, and microcode updates are applied via UPDATE.
The permissions are inforced based on the pseudo-device file permissions.
RDMSR/CPUID will be allowed when the caller has read access to the device
node, while WRMSR/UPDATE will be granted only when the node is opened
for writing. There're also a number of priv(9) checks.
The cpucontrol(8) utility is intened to provide userland access to
the cpuctl(4) device features. The utility also allows one to apply
cpu microcode updates.
Currently only Intel and AMD cpus are supported and were tested.

gcc emits incomplete or wrong diagnostics for these, but only for
