3da1cf1e88 Extend the meaning of the CTLFLAG_TUN flag to automatically check if
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.

Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

9976156f12 kern cons: introduce infrastructure for console grabbing by kernel
At the moment grab and ungrab methods of all console drivers are no-ops.

Current intended meaning of the calls is that the kernel takes control of
console input.  In the future the semantics may be extended to mean that
the calling thread takes full ownership of the console (e.g. console
output from other threads could be suspended).

4cf7545589 Attempt to make break-to-debugger and alternative break-to-debugger more
accessible:

(1) Always compile in support for breaking into the debugger if options
    KDB is present in the kernel.

(2) Disable both by default, but allow them to be enabled via tunables
    and sysctls debug.kdb.break_to_debugger and
    debug.kdb.alt_break_to_debugger.

(3) options BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER and options ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER continue
    to behave as before -- only now instead of compiling in
    break-to-debugger support, they change the default values of the
    above sysctls to enable those features by default.  Current kernel
    configurations should, therefore, continue to behave as expected.

(4) Migrate alternative break-to-debugger state machine logic out of
    individual device drivers into centralised KDB code.  This has a
    number of upsides, but also one downside: it's now tricky to release
    sio spin locks when entering the debugger, so we don't.  However,
    similar logic does not exist in other device drivers, including uart.

(5) dcons requires some special handling; unlike other console types, it
    allows overriding KDB's own debugger selection, so we need a new
    interface to KDB to allow that to work.

GENERIC kernels in -CURRENT will now support break-to-debugger as long as
appropriate boot/run-time options are set, which should improve the
debuggability of BETA kernels significantly.

e7ceb1e99b Based on discussions on the svn-src mailing list, rework r218195:
- entirely eliminate some calls to uio_yeild() as being unnecessary,
   such as in a sysctl handler.

 - move should_yield() and maybe_yield() to kern_synch.c and move the
   prototypes from sys/uio.h to sys/proc.h

 - add a slightly more generic kern_yield() that can replace the
   functionality of uio_yield().

 - replace source uses of uio_yield() with the functional equivalent,
   or in some cases do not change the thread priority when switching.

 - fix a logic inversion bug in vlrureclaim(), pointed out by bde@.

 - instead of using the per-cpu last switched ticks, use a per thread
   variable for should_yield().  With PREEMPTION, the only reasonable
   use of this is to determine if a lock has been held a long time and
   relinquish it.  Without PREEMPTION, this is essentially the same as
   the per-cpu variable.

875b8844be Implement new event timers infrastructure. It provides unified APIs for
writing event timer drivers, for choosing best possible drivers by machine
independent code and for operating them to supply kernel with hardclock(),
statclock() and profclock() events in unified fashion on various hardware.

Infrastructure provides support for both per-CPU (independent for every CPU
core) and global timers in periodic and one-shot modes. MI management code
at this moment uses only periodic mode, but one-shot mode use planned for
later, as part of tickless kernel project.

For this moment infrastructure used on i386 and amd64 architectures. Other
archs are welcome to follow, while their current operation should not be
affected.

This patch updates existing drivers (i8254, RTC and LAPIC) for the new
order, and adds event timers support into the HPET driver. These drivers
have different capabilities:
 LAPIC - per-CPU timer, supports periodic and one-shot operation, may
freeze in C3 state, calibrated on first use, so may be not exactly precise.
 HPET - depending on hardware can work as per-CPU or global, supports
periodic and one-shot operation, usually provides several event timers.
 i8254 - global, limited to periodic mode, because same hardware used also
as time counter.
 RTC - global, supports only periodic mode, set of frequencies in Hz
limited by powers of 2.

Depending on hardware capabilities, drivers preferred in following orders,
either LAPIC, HPETs, i8254, RTC or HPETs, LAPIC, i8254, RTC.
User may explicitly specify wanted timers via loader tunables or sysctls:
kern.eventtimer.timer1 and kern.eventtimer.timer2.
If requested driver is unavailable or unoperational, system will try to
replace it. If no more timers available or "NONE" specified for second,
system will operate using only one timer, multiplying it's frequency by few
times and uing respective dividers to honor hz, stathz and profhz values,
set during initial setup.

444b91868b Make the newbus subsystem Giant free by adding the new newbus sxlock.
The newbus lock is responsible for protecting newbus internIal structures,
device states and devclass flags. It is necessary to hold it when all
such datas are accessed. For the other operations, softc locking should
ensure enough protection to avoid races.

Newbus lock is automatically held when virtual operations on the device
and bus are invoked when loading the driver or when the suspend/resume
take place. For other 'spourious' operations trying to access/modify
the newbus topology, newbus lock needs to be automatically acquired and
dropped.

For the moment Giant is also acquired in some key point (modules subsystem)
in order to avoid problems before the 8.0 release as module handlers could
make assumptions about it. This Giant locking should go just after
the release happens.

Please keep in mind that the public interface can be expanded in order
to provide more support, if there are really necessities at some point
and also some bugs could arise as long as the patch needs a bit of
further testing.

Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to reflect the newbus lock introduction.

630b9bf23f Make a 1:1 mapping between syscons stats and terminal emulators.
After I imported libteken into the source tree, I noticed syscons didn't
store the cursor position inside the terminal emulator, but inside the
virtual terminal stat. This is not very useful, because when you
implement more complex forms of line wrapping, you need to keep track of
more state than just the cursor position.

Because the kernel messages didn't share the same terminal emulator as
ttyv0, this caused a lot of strange things, like kernel messages being
misplaced and a missing notification to resize the terminal emulator for
kernel messages never to be resized when using vidcontrol.

This patch just removes kernel_console_ts and adds a special parameter
to te_puts to determine whether messages should be printed using regular
colors or the ones for kernel messages.

b4b1c5169d Replace syscons terminal renderer by a new renderer that uses libteken.
Some time ago I started working on a library called libteken, which is
terminal emulator. It does not buffer any screen contents, but only
keeps terminal state, such as cursor position, attributes, etc. It
should implement all escape sequences that are implemented by the
cons25 terminal emulator, but also a fair amount of sequences that are
present in VT100 and xterm.

A lot of random notes, which could be of interest to users/developers:

- Even though I'm leaving the terminal type set to `cons25', users can
  do experiments with placing `xterm-color' in /etc/ttys. Because we
  only implement a subset of features of xterm, this may cause
  artifacts. We should consider extending libteken, because in my
  opinion xterm is the way to go. Some missing features:

  - Keypad application mode (DECKPAM)
  - Character sets (SCS)

- libteken is filled with a fair amount of assertions, but unfortunately
  we cannot go into the debugger anymore if we fail them. I've done
  development of this library almost entirely in userspace. In
  sys/dev/syscons/teken there are two applications that can be helpful
  when debugging the code:

  - teken_demo: a terminal emulator that can be started from a regular
    xterm that emulates a terminal using libteken. This application can
    be very useful to debug any rendering issues.

  - teken_stress: a stress testing application that emulates random
    terminal output. libteken has literally survived multiple terabytes
    of random input.

- libteken also includes support for UTF-8, but unfortunately our input
  layer and font renderer don't support this. If users want to
  experiment with UTF-8 support, they can enable `TEKEN_UTF8' in
  teken.h. If you recompile your kernel or the teken_demo application,
  you can hold some nice experiments.

- I've left PC98 the way it is right now. The PC98 platform has a custom
  syscons renderer, which supports some form of localised input. Maybe
  we should port PC98 to libteken by the time syscons supports UTF-8?

- I've removed the `dumb' terminal emulator. It has been broken for
  years. It hasn't survived the `struct proc' -> `struct thread'
  conversion.

- To prevent confusion among people that want to hack on libteken:
  unlike syscons, the state machines that parse the escape sequences are
  machine generated. This means that if you want to add new escape
  sequences, you have to add an entry to the `sequences' file. This will
  cause new entries to be added to `teken_state.h'.

- Any rendering artifacts that didn't occur prior to this commit are by
  accident. They should be reported to me, so I can fix them.

6bfa9a2d66 Replace all calls to minor() with dev2unit().
After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel
yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing.
Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not
a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere.

This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call
minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT
this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports
related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect
more than 256 pieces of the same hardware.

bc093719ca Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.
The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:

- Improved driver model:

  The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
  make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
  device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
  in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
  TTY buffers.

  If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
  (still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
  implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.

- Improved hotplugging:

  With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
  the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
  where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
  the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
  used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).

  The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
  posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.

- Improved performance:

  One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
  to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
  Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
  used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.

Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.

43d7128c14 Expand kdb_alt_break a little, most commonly used with the option
ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER.  In addition to "Enter ~ ctrl-B" (to enter the
debugger), there is now "Enter ~ ctrl-P" (force panic) and
"Enter ~ ctrl-R" (request clean reboot, ala ctrl-alt-del on syscons).

We've used variations of this at work.  The force panic sequence is
best used with KDB_UNATTENDED for when you just want it to dump and
get on with it.

The reboot request is a safer way of getting into single user than
a power cycle.  eg: you've hosed the ability to log in (pam, rtld, etc).
It gives init the reboot signal, which causes an orderly reboot.

I've taken my best guess at what the !x86 and non-sio code changes
should be.

This also makes sio release its spinlock before calling KDB/DDB.

9b4a8ab7ba Now that all platforms use genclock, shuffle things around slightly
for better structure.

Much of this is related to <sys/clock.h>, which should really have
been called <sys/calendar.h>, but unless and until we need the name,
the repocopy can wait.

In general the kernel does not know about minutes, hours, days,
timezones, daylight savings time, leap-years and such.  All that
is theoretically a matter for userland only.

Parts of kernel code does however care: badly designed filesystems
store timestamps in local time and RTC chips almost universally
track time in a YY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format, and sometimes in local
timezone instead of UTC.  For this we have <sys/clock.h>

<sys/time.h> on the other hand, deals with time_t, timeval, timespec
and so on.  These know only seconds and fractions thereof.

Move inittodr() and resettodr() prototypes to <sys/time.h>.
Retain the names as it is one of the few surviving PDP/VAX references.

Move startrtclock() to <machine/clock.h> on relevant platforms, it
is a MD call between machdep.c/clock.c.  Remove references to it
elsewhere.

Remove a lot of unnecessary <sys/clock.h> includes.

changing.

dad3b6c6fd Back in the good old days, PC's had random pieces of rock for
frequency generation and what frequency the generated was anyones
guess.

In general the 32.768kHz RTC clock x-tal was the best, because that
was a regular wrist-watch Xtal, whereas the X-tal generating the
ISA bus frequency was much lower quality, often costing as much as
several cents a piece, so it made good sense to check the ISA bus
frequency against the RTC clock.

The other relevant property of those machines, is that they
typically had no more than 16MB RAM.

These days, CPU chips croak if their clocks are not tightly within
specs and all necessary frequencies are derived from the master
crystal by means if PLL's.

Considering that it takes on average 1.5 second to calibrate the
frequency of the i8254 counter, that more likely than not, we will
not actually use the result of the calibration, and as the final
clincher, we seldom use the i8254 for anything besides BEL in
syscons anyway, it has become time to drop the calibration code.

If you need to tell the system what frequency your i8254 runs,
you can do so from the loader using hw.i8254.freq or using the
sysctl kern.timecounter.tc.i8254.frequency.

1d73a9dc74 Further cleanup of sound generation in syscons:
The timer_spkr_*() functions take care of the enabling/disabling
of the speaker.

Test on the existence of timer_spkr_*() functions, rather than
architectures.

e465985885 The "free-lance" timer in the i8254 is only used for the speaker
these days, so de-generalize the acquire_timer/release_timer api
to just deal with speakers.

The new (optional) MD functions are:
	timer_spkr_acquire()
	timer_spkr_release()
and
	timer_spkr_setfreq()

the last of which configures the timer to generate a tone of a given
frequency, in Hz instead of 1/1193182th of seconds.

Drop entirely timer2 on pc98, it is not used anywhere at all.

Move sysbeep() to kern/tty_cons.c and use the timer_spkr*() if
they exist, and do nothing otherwise.

Remove prototypes and empty acquire-/release-timer() and sysbeep()
functions from the non-beeping archs.

This eliminate the need for the speaker driver to know about
i8254frequency at all.  In theory this makes the speaker driver MI,
contingent on the timer_spkr_*() functions existing but the driver
does not know this yet and still attaches to the ISA bus.

Syscons is more tricky, in one function, sc_tone(), it knows the hz
and things are just fine.

In the other function, sc_bell() it seems to get the period from
the KDMKTONE ioctl in terms if 1/1193182th second, so we hardcode
the 1193182 and leave it at that.  It's probably not important.

Change a few other sysbeep() uses which obviously knew that the
argument was in terms of i8254 frequency, and leave alone those
that look like people thought sysbeep() took frequency in hertz.

This eliminates the knowledge of i8254_freq from all but the actual
clock.c code and the prof_machdep.c on amd64 and i386, where I think
it would be smart to ask for help from the timecounters anyway [TBD].

ebfbcd612a Rename timer0_max_count to i8254_max_count.
Rename timer0_real_max_count to i8254_real_max_count and make it static.
Rename timer_freq to i8254_freq and make it a loader tunable.
