o It causes the VM host to believe that all the tested pages or RAM are

belonging to other VMs, or otherwise cause problems with fair resource
sharing on the VM cluster.
o It adds significant time to the boot process (around 1 second/Gig in

o It is unnecessary - the host should have already verified that the

with KBI extensions). If you need to access kernel cpuset_t from the

driver would verify that requests for child devices were confined to any
existing I/O windows, but the driver relied on the firmware to initialize
the windows and would never grow the windows for new requests. Now the
driver actively manages the I/O windows.
This is implemented by allocating a bus resource for each I/O window from
the parent PCI bus and suballocating that resource to child devices. The
suballocations are managed by creating an rman for each I/O window. The
suballocated resources are mapped by passing the bus_activate_resource()
call up to the parent PCI bus. Windows are grown when needed by using
bus_adjust_resource() to adjust the resource allocated from the parent PCI
bus. If the adjust request succeeds, the window is adjusted and the
suballocation request for the child device is retried.
When growing a window, the rman_first_free_region() and
rman_last_free_region() routines are used to determine if the front or
end of the existing I/O window is free. From using that, the smallest
ranges that need to be added to either the front or back of the window
are computed. The driver will first try to grow the window in whichever
direction requires the smallest growth first followed by the other
direction if that fails.
Subtractive bridges will first attempt to satisfy requests for child
resources from I/O windows (including attempts to grow the windows). If
that fails, the request is passed up to the parent PCI bus directly
however.
The PCI-PCI bridge driver will try to use firmware-assigned ranges for
child BARs first and only allocate a "fresh" range if that specific range
cannot be accommodated in the I/O window. This allows systems where the
firmware assigns resources during boot but later wipes the I/O windows
(some ACPI BIOSen are known to do this) to "rediscover" the original I/O
window ranges.
The ACPI Host-PCI bridge driver has been adjusted to correctly honor
hw.acpi.host_mem_start and the I/O port equivalent when a PCI-PCI bridge
makes a wildcard request for an I/O window range.
The new PCI-PCI bridge driver is only enabled if the NEW_PCIB kernel option
is enabled. This is a transition aide to allow platforms that do not
yet support bus_activate_resource() and bus_adjust_resource() in their
Host-PCI bridge drivers (and possibly other drivers as needed) to use the
old driver for now. Once all platforms support the new driver, the
kernel option and old driver will be removed.

allocated from the kmem map. It is allocated from its own submap of
the kernel map. In short, it has no real connection to the kmem map.
(In fact, the commit messages for the maxpipekva auto-sizing talk
about using the kernel map size, cf. r117325 and r117391, even though
the implementation actually used the kmem map size.) Although the
calculation is now done differently, the resulting value for
maxpipekva should remain almost the same on i386. However, on amd64,
the value will be reduced by 2/3. This is intentional. The recent
change to VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE on amd64 for the benefit of ZFS also had
the unnecessary side-effect of increasing maxpipekva. This change is
effectively restoring maxpipekva on amd64 to its prior value.

While it may be a perfect win in some scenarios, it still troubles users

On some architectures UCHAR_MAX and USHRT_MAX had type unsigned int.
However, lacking integer suffixes for types smaller than int, their type
should correspond to that of an object of type unsigned char (or short)
when used in an expression with objects of type int. In that case unsigned
char (short) are promoted to int (i.e. signed) so the type of UCHAR_MAX and
USHRT_MAX should also be int.
Where MIN/MAX constants implicitly have the correct type the suffix has
been removed.
While here, correct some comments.

Oddly, while this doesn't seem to affect the overall rate of panics

Use xen_update_descriptor to update the LDT rather than bcopy. Under Xen,
pages used for holding LDTs must be read-only, so we can't make the change
ourselves.
Ths obvious alternative of "remap the page read-write, make the change, then
map it read-only again" doesn't work since Xen won't allow an LDT page to be
remapped as R/W. An arguably better solution is used by NetBSD: They don't
modify LDTs in-place at all, but instead copy the entire LDT, modify the new
version, then atomically swap.

sharing systems can skip clock interrupts for a few seconds when under

someone else wants a burst of CPU) and we were losing time in quanta of

Increasing the timecounter period up to 2^41 ns is definitely overkill,
