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.
break when I remove LOCORE support from clock.h.
I586_CTR_MULTIPLIER_SHIFT = 32 from clock.h is actually still used, but
32 is so magic that it doesn't get used explicitly.
- Add support for memory mapped I/O.
- Use DMA to get SCBs down to the adapters.
- Remove old paging code.
- Be much smarter about how we allocate SCB space. The old, simple method
wasted almost half a page per SCB. Ooops.
- Make command complete interrupt processing more efficient.
- Break the monolithic ahc_intr into sub-routines. The sub-routines handle
rare, special case events so the function call is not a penalty and the
removal of the code from the main routine most likely improves performance
instruction prefech will work better and less code is pushed into the cache.
- Never, ever allow tagged queueing if a device has disconnection disabled.
- Clean up and simplify timeout code. Many of the changes are to handle the
new DMA scheme.
SCB paging is now handled almost entirely by the sequencer and also uses
DMA. This should make SCB paging at least an order of magnitude more
efficient and vastly simplifies the implementation.
Add a few space optimizations so this code still fits on aic7770 chips.

move the socket from /dev to /var/run by default
TRANSITIONALLY make syslog add a symlink..
I PROMISE I'll remove that as soon as I have the makefiles etc fixed as well.
1) Rename FNM_ICASE to FNM_CASEFOLD
2) Add FNM_LEADING_DIR
Add proper (unsigned char) casts to tolower().
Use 'char' function argument for proper sign extension
bit (0x0008) in the sc driver configuration line. This way it's easy to
boink a generic kernel.
Also, document and place in an opt_ file the #define's for overriding which
serial port is the system console.

Garrett Wollman sent me this code a few weeks ago for review, and I made
some significant changes, which he in turn accepted ...
In order to make use of these changes, a device entry has to added to /dev.

this confused nfs_readdirrpc(), making it appear as if the directory

there is keyboard input.
The mousepointer is shown again immediately if moved.
Also a function pointer used to install a userwritten extra
ioctl handler (sc_user_ioctl). This way its is possible to
install user defined videomodes etc etc. No further changes
should be in the kernel.
- 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.

The heuristic for managment of memory backing the buffer cache was
nice, but didn't work due to some architectural problems. Simplify
and improve the algorithm.
