I've added an installation from optical disk drive facility.
This enables FreeBSD to be installed from an optical disk, which
may be formatted in "super floppy" style or sliced into MSDOS-FS
and UFS partitions.
Note: ncr.c should be reviewed by Stefan Esser <se@freebsd.org>
and cd.c by Joerg Wunsch <joerg@freebsd.org> before bringing this
into 2.2.

decrease the size of buffer_map to approx 2/3 of what it used to be
(buffer_map can be smaller now.) The original commit of these changes
increased the size of buffer_map to the point where the system would
not boot on large systems -- now large systems with large caches will
have even less problems than before.
consistent stack frame in fastmove() so that only one new fault handler
is necessary.
Should be in 2.2. Harmless until the i586 versions are reenabled.
substantially increasing buffer space. Specifically, we double
the number of buffers, but allocate only half the amount of memory
per buffer. Note that VDIR files aren't cached unless instantiated
in a buffer. This will significantly improve caching.
aic7xxx cards failing on certain motherboards, reverse the logic used to
control this feature. AHC_FORCE_PIO is replaced with AHC_ALLOW_MEMIO.
GENERIC no longer needs to specify the AHC_FORCE_PIO option since this is
the default.
user supplies a bad address, because they push a lot of stuff that the
fault handler doesn't know about onto the stack. This has been broken
for more than half a year despite being tested for almost half a year
in -current.
negative-logic flags (flags 0x01 and 0x02 for npx0, defaulting to unset = on).
This changes the default from off to on. The options have been in current
for several months with no problems reported.
Added a boot-time negative-logic flag for the old I5886_FAST_BCOPY option
which went away too soon (flag 0x04 for npx0, defaulting to unset = on).
Added a boot-time way to set the memory size (iosiz in config, iosize in
userconfig for npx0).
LINT:
Removed old options. Documented npx0's flags and iosiz.
options.i386:
Removed old options.
identcpu.c:
Don't set the function pointers here. Setting them has to be delayed
until after userconfig has had a chance to disable them and until after
a good npx0 has been detected.
machdep.c:
Use npx0's iosize instead of MAXMEM if it is nonzero.
support.s:
Added vectors and glue code for copyin() and copyout().
Fixed ifdefs for i586_bzero().
Added ifdefs for i586_bcopy().
npx.c:
Set the function pointers here.
Clear hw_float when an npx exists but is too broken to use.
Restored style from a year or three ago in npxattach().
if I586_CPU is defined. Note there is a runtime check so the code
won't be run for non-Pentium CPUs anyway.
2.2 candidate, this code has been tested for almost half year in -current.
handlers if interrupts are nested more than a few (3) deep. This
only reduces the maximum nesting level by 1 with the standard
drivers unless there is a related bug somewhere, but can't hurt
much (the worst case is returning to hoggish interrupt handler like
wdintr(), but such interrupt handlers hurt anyway).
Fixed a previously harmless race incrementing the interrupt nesting
level.
This should be in 2.1.6 and 2.2.
hardware interrupt counts add up to the total. Previously, software
interrupts generated by splz() were counted in the total. These
software interrupts seem to be very rare - there have apparently been
0 of them on freefall among the last 352448857 interrupts.
mappings with mlock. This problem only occurred because of the
quick unmap code not respecting the wired-ness of pages in the
process. In the future, we need to eliminate the dependency
intrinsic to the design of the code that wired pages actually
be mapped. It is kind-of bogus not to have wired pages mapped,
but it is also a weakness for the code to fall flat because
of a missing page.
This show fix a problem that Tor Egge has been having, and also
should be included into 2.2-RELEASE.

AHC_FORCE_PIO - This forces the driver to use PIO even on systems that
say they have memory mapped the controller's registers. This
seems to fix Ken Lam's problems. I've also placed this option
in the GENERIC kernel file so that we are guaranteed to install
even on these flakey machines.
AHC_SHARE_SCBS - This option attempts to share the external SCB SRAM on
the 398X controllers allowing a totoll of 255 non-paged SCBs.
This doesn't work quite yet, so this option is mostly here to
help 398X owners to experiment and give me feedback until this
works properly.
I decided to do this for every hardclock() call instead of lazily
in microtime(). The lazy method is simpler but has more overhead
if microtime() is called a lot.
CPU_THISTICKLEN() is now a no-op and should probably go away.
Previously it did nothing directly but had the side effect of
setting i586_last_tick for CPU_CLOCKUPDATE() and i586_avg_tick for
debugging. CPU_CLOCKUPDATE() now uses a better method and
i586_avg_tick is too much trouble to maintain.
Reduced nesting of #includes in the usual case.
Increased nesting of #includes when CLOCK_HAIR is defined. This
is a kludge to get typedefs for inline functions only when the
inline functions are used. Normally only kern_clock.c defines
this. kern_clock.c can't include the i386 headers directly.
Removed unused LOCORE support.
- use a more accurate and more efficient method of compensating for
overheads. The old method counted too much time against leaf
functions.
- normally use the Pentium timestamp counter if available.
On Pentiums, the times are now accurate to within a couple of cpu
clock cycles per function call in the (unlikely) event that there
are no cache misses in or caused by the profiling code.
- optionally use an arbitrary Pentium event counter if available.
- optionally regress to using the i8254 counter.
- scaled the i8254 counter by a factor of 128. Now the i8254 counters
overflow slightly faster than the TSC counters for a 150MHz Pentium :-)
(after about 16 seconds). This is to avoid fractional overheads.
files.i386:
permon.c temporarily has to be classified as a profiling-routine
because a couple of functions in it may be called from profiling code.
options.i386:
- I586_CTR_GUPROF is currently unused (oops).
- I586_PMC_GUPROF should be something like 0x70000 to enable (but not
use unless prof_machdep.c is changed) support for Pentium event
counters. 7 is a control mode and the counter number 0 is somewhere
in the 0000 bits (see perfmon.h for the encoding).
profile.h:
- added declarations.
- cleaned up separation of user mode declarations.
prof_machdep.c:
Mostly clock-select changes. The default clock can be changed by
editing kmem. There should be a sysctl for this.
subr_prof.c:
- added copyright.
- calibrate overheads for the new method.
- documented new method.
- fixed races and and machine dependencies in start/stop code.
mcount.c:
Use the new overhead compensation method.
gmon.h:
- changed GPROF4 counter type from unsigned to int. Oops, this should
be machine-dependent and/or int32_t.
- reorganized overhead counters.
Submitted by: Pentium event counter changes mostly by wollman
- use CROSSJUMP() and CROSSJUMP_LABEL() for conditional jumps from idle()
into cpu_switch() and vice versa.
- moved badsw code to after cpu_switch().
Cosmetic changes:
- moved sw0 string to be immediately after its caller (badsw).
- removed unused #include.
previous snap. Specifically, kern_exit and kern_exec now makes a
call into the pmap module to do a very fast removal of pages from the
address space. Additionally, the pmap module now updates the PG_MAPPED
and PG_WRITABLE flags. This is an optional optimization, but helpful
on the X86.
- fixed a sloppy common-style declaration.
- removed an unused macro.
- moved once-used macros to the one file where they are used.
- removed unused forward struct declarations.
- removed __pure.
- declared inline functions as inline in their prototype as well
as in theire definition (gcc unfortunately allows the prototype
to be inconsistent).
- staticized.
<net/if_arp.h> and fixed the things that depended on it. The nested
include just allowed unportable programs to compile and made my
simple #include checking program report that networking code doesn't
need to include <sys/socket.h>.
I586_OPTIMIZED_BCOPY is configured.
Similarly for bzero/I586_OPTIMIZED_BZERO.
Fake 586's had better have a hardware FPU with non-broken exception
handling (we mask exceptions, but broken exception handling may trap
on the instructions that do the masking). I guess this means that
the routines won't work on most 386's or FPUless 486's even when they
have a h/w FPU.
