known samples of broken chipsets that needed mixed mode in the first place
are so broken (ie: locks up) that we can't use IO APIC mode at all and it
needs to be turned off in the bios. So, the MIXED_MODE penalty on the
good chipsets gained nothing.

the compiler having to parse and optimize the PCPU_GET(curthread) so often.
__curthread() is an inline optimized version of PCPU_GET(curthread) that
knows that pc_curthread is at offset zero in the pcpu struct. Add a
CTASSERT() to catch any possible changes to this. This accounts for
just over a 1% wall clock speedup for total kernel compile/link time,
and 20% compile time speedup on some specific files depending on which
compile options are used.

the routing table. Move all usage and references in the tcp stack
from the routing table metrics to the tcp hostcache.
It caches measured parameters of past tcp sessions to provide better
initial start values for following connections from or to the same
source or destination. Depending on the network parameters to/from
the remote host this can lead to significant speedups for new tcp
connections after the first one because they inherit and shortcut
the learning curve.
tcp_hostcache is designed for multiple concurrent access in SMP
environments with high contention and is hash indexed by remote
ip address.
It removes significant locking requirements from the tcp stack with
regard to the routing table.

especially important for devices that only have one interrupt as this
bug was keeping any interrupt from being tried at all.

calls.
1) is fixed by using spin locks instead.
2) is fixed by preallocating a FIFO (implemented with a STAILQ)
and using elements from this FIFO instead. This turns out
to be rather fast.

Apologies to: *
(1) Document the notion of using jail(8) to run "virtual servers" or
just to constrain specific applications. If only running specific
applications, some configuration steps are unnecessary (such as
editing rc.conf).
(2) Add some more subsection headers to break up the bigger chunks of
text.
(3) Clarify the problems associated with applications binding all IP
addresses in the host, and attempt to be more specific about
potential application problems. Document how to force sshd to
bind the the right socket.
(4) Suggest that in a jailed application scenario, you might want to
have the host syslogd listen on the socket in the jail, rather
than running syslogd in the jail.
(5) Catch another reference to /stand/sysinstall.

an acpi_cpu method for shutdown that disables entry to acpi_cpu_idle
and then IPIs/waits for threads to exit. This fixes a panic late in
reboot in the SMP case.
* In the !SMP case, don't use the processor id filled out by the MADT
since there can only be one processor. This was causing a panic in
acpi_cpu_idle if the id was 1 since the data was being dereferenced from
cpu_softc[1] even though the actual data was in cpu_softc[0] (which is
correct).
* Rework the initialization functions so that cpu_idle_hook is written
late in the boot process.
* Make the P_BLK, P_BLK_LEN, and cpu_cx_count all softc-local variables.
This will help SMP boxes that have _CST or multiple P_BLKs. No such
boxes are known at this time.
* Always allocate the C1 state, even if the P_BLK is invalid. This means
we will always take over idling if enabled. Remove the value -1 as
valid for cx_lowest since this is redundant with machdep.cpu_idle_hlt.
* Reduce locking for the throttle initialization case to around the write
to the smi_cmd port. Add disabled code to write the CST_CNT. It will
be enabled once _CST re-evaluation is tested (post 5.2R).

- turn on SMP in generic
- add 'device atpic' - this is unconditional on i386, but certain nvidia
based systems need to disable acpi because the reference bios seems to be
hosed. If acpi is disabled, we won't find the apic. amd64 has the

have /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 as the dynamic linker. This simply does
not work if /usr is a seperate filesystem not mounted when the kernel

Note that this is a temporary fix until a new gcc has been imported
that does have the required changes.

choke when it tries to handle an unregisterd ATPIC interrupt source.
- Install the low-level ATPIC interrupt handlers when we first program the
ATPIC in atpic_startup() rather than at SI_SUB_INTR. This is only
necessary to work around buggy code that enables interrupts too early
in the boot process (namely, the vm86 code).

In practice it seems that in situations of high packet loss the ACK
timeout seems to hit this maximum (perhaps inappropriately, but the
estimation algorithm is not perfect, so apparently it happens). In
any case, 10 seconds is way too high a value so lower to 1 second.
