This is a bit hackish and should be made more generic (ie, support more than
two hard-coded performance counter+config register pairs) so it can be used
for mips74k and other chips.
All this does is process the initial interrupt event. It doesn't (yet) handle
callgraph events, so even if you route the exception/interrupt to this routine
and flip the bit on, it will hang and crash pmc unless you disable callgraph
support when you enable a sample based PMC.
As the underlying block is 4KB if the PMC throughput is low the measurement
will be reported on the next tick. pmcstat(8) use the modified flush API to
reclaim current buffer before displaying next top.

* Add the interrupt bit in the configuration register
* Correctly set the counter register for the sampling overflow
interrupt. The interrupt is asserted when bit 31 is set.
So set the overflow value at 0x80000000 and subtract the
programmed value as appropriate.
patch modifies makesyscalls.sh to prefix all of the non-compatibility
calls (e.g. not linux_, freebsd32_) with sys_ and updates the kernel
entry points and all places in the code that use them. It also
fixes an additional name space collision between the kernel function
psignal and the libc function of the same name by renaming the kernel
psignal kern_psignal(). By introducing this change now we will ease future
MFCs that change syscalls.

kernel for FreeBSD 9.0:
Add a new capability mask argument to fget(9) and friends, allowing system
call code to declare what capabilities are required when an integer file
descriptor is converted into an in-kernel struct file *. With options
CAPABILITIES compiled into the kernel, this enforces capability
protection; without, this change is effectively a no-op.
Some cases require special handling, such as mmap(2), which must preserve
information about the maximum rights at the time of mapping in the memory
map so that they can later be enforced in mprotect(2) -- this is done by
narrowing the rights in the existing max_protection field used for similar
purposes with file permissions.
In namei(9), we assert that the code is not reached from within capability
mode, as we're not yet ready to enforce namespace capabilities there.
This will follow in a later commit.
Update two capability names: CAP_EVENT and CAP_KEVENT become
CAP_POST_KEVENT and CAP_POLL_KEVENT to more accurately indicate what they
represent.

cpuset_t objects.
That is going to offer the underlying support for a simple bump of
MAXCPU and then support for number of cpus > 32 (as it is today).
Right now, cpumask_t is an int, 32 bits on all our supported architecture.
cpumask_t on the other side is implemented as an array of longs, and
easilly extendible by definition.
The architectures touched by this commit are the following:
- amd64
- i386
- pc98
- arm
- ia64
- XEN
while the others are still missing.
Userland is believed to be fully converted with the changes contained
here.
Some technical notes:
- This commit may be considered an ABI nop for all the architectures
different from amd64 and ia64 (and sparc64 in the future)
- per-cpu members, which are now converted to cpuset_t, needs to be
accessed avoiding migration, because the size of cpuset_t should be
considered unknown
- size of cpuset_t objects is different from kernel and userland (this is
primirally done in order to leave some more space in userland to cope
with KBI extensions). If you need to access kernel cpuset_t from the
userland please refer to example in this patch on how to do that
correctly (kgdb may be a good source, for example).
- Support for other architectures is going to be added soon
- Only MAXCPU for amd64 is bumped now
The patch has been tested by sbruno and Nicholas Esborn on opteron
4 x 12 pack CPUs. More testing on big SMP is expected to came soon.
pluknet tested the patch with his 8-ways on both amd64 and i386.

- Updated Corei7 events with Intel 253669-033US December 2009 doc.
There is some removed events in the documentation, they have been
kept in the code but documented in the man page as obsolete.
- Offcore response events can be setup with rsp token.

pmc_flush_logfile is now non-blocking and just ask the kernel
to shutdown the file. From that point, no more data is
accepted by the log thread and when the last buffer is flushed
the file is closed.
This will remove a deadlock between pmcstat asking for
flush while it cannot flush the pipe itself.

This brings hwpmc(4) support for 2nd and 3rd generation XScale cores.
Right now it's enabled by default to make sure we test this a bit.
When the time comes it can be disabled by default.

- Provide lapic_disable_pmc(), lapic_enable_pmc(), and lapic_reenable_pmc()
routines in the local APIC code that the hwpmc(4) driver can use to
manage the local APIC PMC interrupt vector.
- Do not enable the local APIC PMC interrupt vector by default when
HWPMC_HOOKS is enabled. Instead, the hwpmc(4) driver explicitly
enables the interrupt when it is succesfully initialized and disables
the interrupt when it is unloaded. This avoids enabling the interrupt
on unsupported CPUs which may result in spurious NMIs.
