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.

o Add the concept of "probed domains" under the form of vm_ndomains.
It is responsibility for every architecture willing to support multiple
memory domains to correctly probe vm_ndomains along with mem_affinity
segments attributes. Those two values are supposed to remain always

Please also note that vm_ndomains and td_dom_rr_idx are both int
because segments already store domains as int. Ideally u_int would
have much more sense. Probabilly this should be cleaned up in the
future.

timecounter to 1, and correspondingly increase the precision of the
gettimeofday(2) and related functions in the default configuration.
The motivation for the TSC-low timecounter, as described in the
r222866, seems to provide a workaround for the non-serializing
behaviour of the RDTSC on some Intel hardware. Tests demonstrate that
even with the pre-shift of 8, the cross-core non-monotonicity of the
RDTSC is still observed reliably, e.g. on the Nehalems. The r238755
and r238973 implemented the proper fix for the issue.
The pre-shift of 1 is applied to keep TSC not overflowing for the
frequency of hardclock down to 2 sec/intr. The pre-shift is made a
tunable to allow the easy debugging of the issues users could see with
the shift being too low.

Rather than trying to KASSERT for callers that invoke this on

Using KASSERT here just makes bus.h too messy from both
polluting bus.h with systm.h (for any number of drivers that include
bus.h without first including systm.h) or ports that use bus.h
directly (i.e. libpciaccess) as reported by zeising@.
Also don't try to implement all of the other bus_space functions for
8 byte access since realistically only these two are needed for some
devices that expose 64-bit memory-mapped registers.

Programming the low bits has a side-effect if unmasking the pin if it is
not disabled. So if an interrupt was pending then it would be delivered
with the correct new vector but to the incorrect old LAPIC.
This fix could be made clearer by preserving the mask bit while
programming the low bits and then explicitly resetting the mask bit
after all the programming is done.
Probability to trip over the fixed bug could be increased by bootverbose
because printing of the interrupt information in ioapic_assign_cpu
lengthened the time window during which an interrupt could arrive while
a pin is masked.

- As a result, always use kmem_alloc_contig() for non-default memory

bus_dmamem_free()'s logic for determining which free routine to use.
- For x86, add a new dummy bus_dmamap that is used for static DMA

message for r238973:
Rdtsc instruction is not synchronized, it seems on some Intel cores it
can bypass even the locked instructions. As a result, rdtsc executed
on different cores may return unordered TSC values even when the rdtsc
appearance in the instruction sequences is provably ordered.
Similarly to what has been done in r238755 for TSC synchronization
test, add explicit fences right before rdtsc in the timecounters 'get'
functions. Intel recommends to use LFENCE, while AMD refers to
MFENCE. For VIA follow what Linux does and use LFENCE. With this
change, I see no reordered reads of TSC on Nehalem.
Change the rmb() to inlined CPUID in the SMP TSC synchronization test.
On i386, locked instruction is used for rmb(), and as noted earlier,
it is not enough. Since i386 machine may not support SSE2, do simplest
possible synchronization with CPUID.

Intel Architecture Manual specifies that rdtsc instruction is not serialized,
so without this change, TSC synchronization test would periodically fail,
resulting in use of HPET timecounter instead of TSC-low. This caused
severe performance degradation (40-50%) when running high IO/s workloads due to
HPET MMIO reads and GEOM stat collection.
Tests on Xeon E5-2600 (Sandy Bridge) 8C systems were seeing TSC synchronization

mostly meets the guidelines set by the Intel SDM:
1. We use XRSTOR and XSAVE from the same CPL using the same linear
address for the store area
2. Contrary to the recommendations, we cannot zero the FPU save area
for a new thread, since fork semantic requires the copy of the
previous state. This advice seemingly contradicts to the advice
from the item 6.
3. We do use XSAVEOPT in the context switch code only, and the area
for XSAVEOPT already always contains the data saved by XSAVE.
4. We do not modify the save area between XRSTOR, when the area is
loaded into FPU context, and XSAVE. We always spit the fpu context
into save area and start emulation when directly writing into FPU
context.
5. We do not use segmented addressing to access save area, or rather,
always address it using %ds basing.
6. XSAVEOPT can be only executed in the area which was previously
loaded with XRSTOR, since context switch code checks for FPU use by
outgoing thread before saving, and thread which stopped emulation
forcibly get context loaded with XRSTOR.
7. The PCB cannot be paged out while FPU emulation is turned off, since
stack of the executing thread is never swapped out.
The context switch code is patched to issue XSAVEOPT instead of XSAVE
if supported. This approach eliminates one conditional in the context
switch code, which would be needed otherwise.
For user-visible machine context to have proper data, fpugetregs()
checks for unsaved extension blocks and manually copies pristine FPU
state into them, according to the description provided by CPUID leaf
0xd.
