the 16-bit cylinders field of the VTOC8 disk label (at around 502GB). The
geometry chosen for disks above that limit allows to use disks up to 2TB,
which is the limit of the extended VTOC8 format. The geometry used for
disks smaller than the 16-bit cylinders limit stays the same as used by
cam_calc_geometry(9) for extended translation.
Thanks to Hans-Joerg Sirtl for providing hardware for testing this change.

Unlike the uncommitted US-III version, which provide no measurable
speedup or even resulted in a slight slowdown on certain CPUs models
compared to using the US-I version with these, the SPARC64 version
actually results in a slight improvement.

but also of different types, f.e. Sun Fire V890 can be equipped with a
mix of UltraSPARC IV and IV+ CPUs, requiring different MMU initialization
and different workarounds for model specific errata. Therefore move the
CPU implementation number from a global variable to the per-CPU data.
Functions which are called before the latter is available are passed the
implementation number as a parameter now.
root nexus device for the CPUs as starting with UltraSPARC IV the 'cpu'
nodes hang off of from 'cmp' (chip multi-threading processor) or 'core'
or combinations thereof. Also in large UltraSPARC III based machines
the 'cpu' nodes hang off of 'ssm' (scalable shared memory) nodes which
group snooping-coherency domains together instead of directly from the
nexus.
It would be great if we could use newbus to deal with the different ways
the 'cpu' devices can hang off of pseudo ones but unfortunately both
cpu_mp_setmaxid() and sparc64_init() have to work prior to regular device
probing.
- Add support for UltraSPARC IV and IV+ CPUs. Due to the fact that these
are multi-core each CPU has two Fireplane config registers and thus the
module/target ID has to be determined differently so the one specific
to a certain core is used. Similarly, starting with UltraSPARC IV the
individual cores use a different property in the OFW device tree to
indicate the CPU/core ID as it no longer is in coincidence with the
shared slot/socket ID.
This involves changing the MD KTR code to not directly read the UPA
module ID either. We use the MID stored in the per-CPU data instead of
calling cpu_get_mid() as a replacement in order prevent clobbering any
registers as side-effect in the assembler version. This requires CATR()
invocations from mp_startup() prior to mapping the per-CPU pages to be
removed though.
While at it additionally distinguish between CPUs with Fireplane and
JBus interconnects as these also use slightly different sizes for the
JBus/agent/module/target IDs.
- Make sparc64_shutdown_final() static as it's not used outside of

sectors so the geometry of large IDE disks has to be adjusted. This
corresponds to what the OpenSolaris dad(7D) driver does except that
the latter only tweaks sectors and effectively limits the mediasize
to 128GB so the cylinders and heads fields won't ever overflow. Not
limiting the mediasize is a compromise between allowing to use Sun
disk label as far as possible and being able to use the entire disk
with another disk label.
This allows to use the full capacity of large IDE disks if they were
not labeled under (Open)Solaris (in both ways of the meaning).

These are called through function pointers so that different implementations
can be provided for cheetah, where the block load instructions may or may
not be a win, and so they can be disabled with the machdep.use_vis tunable.
In terms of raw bandwidth the integer versions are faster, but not allocating
lines in the L2 cache for useless data gives a measurable improvement in user
time for the benchmarks I tested (mostly buildworld with -j8).
As far as I can tell the instructions used are implemented on everything
back to UltraSPARC I, so there should not be a problem with different cpu
types.
in the original hardwired sysctl implementation.
The buf size calculator still overflows an integer on machines with large
KVA (eg: ia64) where the number of pages does not fit into an int. Use
'long' there.
Change Maxmem and physmem and related variables to 'long', mostly for
completeness. Machines are not likely to overflow 'int' pages in the
near term, but then again, 640K ought to be enough for anybody. This
comes for free on 32 bit machines, so why not?
{set,fill}_{,fp,db}regs() fixup:
- Add dummy {set,fill}_dbregs() on architectures that don't have them.
- KSEfy the powerpc versions (struct proc -> struct thread).
- Some architectures had the prototypes in md_var.h, some in reg.h, and
some in both; for consistency, move them to reg.h on all platforms.
These functions aren't really MD (the implementation is MD, but the interface
is MI), so they should move to an MI header, but I haven't figured out which
one yet.
Run-tested on i386, build-tested on Alpha, untested on other platforms.

This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.

to a new architecture. This is the base of the sparc64 port, but contains
limited machine dependent code, and can be used a base for ports. Included
are:
- standard machine dependent headers, tweaked for a 64 bit, big endian
architecture, including empty versions of all the machine dependent
structures
- a machine independent atomic.h, which can be used until a port has
support for interrupts and the operations really need to be atomic
- stub versions of all the machine dependent functions, which panic
when called and print out the name of the function that needs to
be implemented. functions which are normally in assembly files are
not included, but this should reduce the number of different undefined
references on the first few compiles from hundreds to 5 or 6
Given minimal startup code and console support it should be trivial to
make this compile and run the first few sysinits on almost any architecture.
