Along with moving the default FIQ handler, change it to disable FIQs
before returning. An FIQ should never happen, but if it does, it's got
to be disabled as part of ignoring it.
In general, we have hand-wavy support for FIQs that probably hasn't been

work for SMP because it only updates the vector on the current cpu). This
change doesn't really make the overall situation any better or worse.

used by legacy SoCs and newer FDT-based systems. There are routines to
add one or more regions of physically contiguous ram, and exclude one or
more physically contiguous regions of ram. Ram can be excluded from crash
dumps, from being given over to the vm system for allocation management,
or both. After all the included and excluded regions have been added,
arm_physmem_init_kernel_globals() processes the regions into the global

communicate memory configuration to the rest of the kernel.

- Reconnect with some minor modifications, in particular now selsocket()
internals are adapted to use sbintime units after recent'ish calloutng
switch.
Basically the situation is as follows:
- When using Clang + armv6, we should not need any intrinsics. It should
support it, even though due to a target misconfiguration it does not.
We should fix this in Clang.
- When using Clang + noarmv6, provide __atomic_* functions that disable
interrupts.
- When using GCC + armv6, we can provide __sync_* intrinsics, similar to
what we did for MIPS. As ARM and MIPS are quite similar, simply base
this implementation on the one I did for MIPS.
- When using GCC + noarmv6, disable the interrupts, like we do for
Clang.
This implementation still lacks functions for noarmv6 userspace. To be
done.

2. New modinfo for loader provided FDT blob.
3. Common x86_init_fdt() called from hammer_time() on amd64 and
init386() on i386.
4. Split-off FDT specific low-level console functions from FDT
bus methods for the uart(4) driver. The low-level console
logic has been moved to uart_cpu_fdt.c and is used for arm,
mips & powerpc only. The FDT bus methods are shared across
all architectures.
5. Add dev/fdt/fdt_x86.c to hold the fdt_fixup_table[] and the
fdt_pic_table[] arrays. Both are empty right now.
FDT addresses are I/O ports on x86. Since the core FDT code does
not handle different address spaces, adding support for both I/O
ports and memory addresses requires some thought and discussion.
It may be better to use a compile-time option that controls this.

usermode, using shared page. The structures and functions have vdso
prefix, to indicate the intended location of the code in some future.
The versioned per-algorithm data is exported in the format of struct
vdso_timehands, which mostly repeats the content of in-kernel struct
timehands. Usermode reading of the structure can be lockless.
Compatibility export for 32bit processes on 64bit host is also
provided. Kernel also provides usermode with indication about
currently used timecounter, so that libc can fall back to syscall if
configured timecounter is unknown to usermode code.
The shared data updates are initiated both from the tc_windup(), where
a fast task is queued to do the update, and from sysctl handlers which
change timecounter. A manual override switch
kern.timecounter.fast_gettime allows to turn off the mechanism.
Only x86 architectures export the real algorithm data, and there, only
for tsc timecounter. HPET counters page could be exported as well, but
I prefer to not further glue the kernel and libc ABI there until
proper vdso-based solution is developed.
Minimal stubs neccessary for non-x86 architectures to still compile
are provided.

support for multiple boards to be built into one kernel (starting with
AT91RM9200 and expanding out from there).
The 'make depend' rules have to use custom -I paths for the special compat
includes for the opensolaris/zfs headers.
This option will pull in the couple of files that are shared with dtrace,
but they appear to correctly use the MODULE_VERSION/MODULE_DEPEND rules
so loader should do the right thing, as should kldload.

derive config data out of the device tree blob (instead of hard coded /

critical_enter() and critical_exit() are now solely a mechanism for
deferring kernel preemptions. They no longer have any affect on
interrupts. This means that standalone critical sections are now very
cheap as they are simply unlocked integer increments and decrements for the
common case.
Spin mutexes now use a separate KPI implemented in MD code: spinlock_enter()
and spinlock_exit(). This KPI is responsible for providing whatever MD
guarantees are needed to ensure that a thread holding a spin lock won't
be preempted by any other code that will try to lock the same lock. For
now all archs continue to block interrupts in a "spinlock section" as they
did formerly in all critical sections. Note that I've also taken this
opportunity to push a few things into MD code rather than MI. For example,
critical_fork_exit() no longer exists. Instead, MD code ensures that new
threads have the correct state when they are created. Also, we no longer
try to fixup the idlethreads for APs in MI code. Instead, each arch sets
the initial curthread and adjusts the state of the idle thread it borrows
in order to perform the initial context switch.
This change is largely a big NOP, but the cleaner separation it provides
will allow for more efficient alternative locking schemes in other parts
of the kernel (bare critical sections rather than per-CPU spin mutexes
for per-CPU data for example).
