Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
A long long time ago the register keyword told the compiler to store
the corresponding variable in a CPU register, but it is not relevant
for any compiler used in the FreeBSD world today.

in place. To do per-cpu stats, convert all fields that previously were
maintained in the vmmeters that sit in pcpus to counter(9).
- Since some vmmeter stats may be touched at very early stages of boot,
before we have set up UMA and we can do counter_u64_alloc(), provide an
early counter mechanism:
o Leave one spare uint64_t in struct pcpu, named pc_early_dummy_counter.
o Point counter(9) fields of vmmeter to pcpu[0].pc_early_dummy_counter,
so that at early stages of boot, before counters are allocated we already
point to a counter that can be safely written to.
o For sparc64 that required a whole dummy pcpu[MAXCPU] array.
Further related changes:
- Don't include vmmeter.h into pcpu.h.
- vm.stats.vm.v_swappgsout and vm.stats.vm.v_swappgsin changed to 64-bit,
to match kernel representation.
- struct vmmeter hidden under _KERNEL, and only vmstat(1) is an exclusion.

vm_offset_t pmap_quick_enter_page(vm_page_t m)
void pmap_quick_remove_page(vm_offset_t kva)
These will create and destroy a temporary, CPU-local KVA mapping of a specified page.
Guarantees:
--Will not sleep and will not fail.
--Safe to call under a non-sleepable lock or from an ithread
Restrictions:
--Not guaranteed to be safe to call from an interrupt filter or under a spin mutex on all platforms
--Current implementation does not guarantee more than one page of mapping space across all platforms. MI code should not make nested calls to pmap_quick_enter_page.
--MI code should not perform locking while holding onto a mapping created by pmap_quick_enter_page
The idea is to use this in busdma, for bounce buffer copies as well as virtually-indexed cache maintenance on mips and arm.
NOTE: the non-i386, non-amd64 implementations of these functions still need review and testing.

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.
- Modules and kernel code alike may use DPCPU_DEFINE(),
DPCPU_GET(), DPCPU_SET(), etc. akin to the statically defined
PCPU_*. Requires only one extra instruction more than PCPU_* and is
virtually the same as __thread for builtin and much faster for shared
objects. DPCPU variables can be initialized when defined.
- Modules are supported by relocating the module's per-cpu linker set
over space reserved in the kernel. Modules may fail to load if there
is insufficient space available.
- Track space available for modules with a one-off extent allocator.
Free may block for memory to allocate space for an extent.

frequencies (and having different cache sizes) so use the STICK
(System TICK) timer, which was introduced due to this and is
driven by the same frequency across all CPUs, instead of the
TICK timer, whose frequency varies with the CPU clock, to drive
hardclock. We try to use the STICK counter with all CPUs that are
USIII or beyond, even when not necessary due to identical CPUs,
as we can can also avoid the workaround for the BlackBird erratum
#1 there. Unfortunately, using the STICK counter currently causes
a hang with USIIIi MP machines for reasons unknown, so we still
use the TICK timer there (which is okay as they can only consist
of identical CPUs).
- Given that we only (try to) synchronize the (S)TICK timers of APs
with the BSP during startup, we could end up spinning forever in
DELAY(9) if that function is migrated to another CPU while we're
spinning due to clock drift afterwards, so pin to the CPU in order
to avoid migration. Unfortunately, pinning doesn't work at the
point DELAY(9) is required by the low-level console drivers, yet,
so switch to a function pointer, which is updated accordingly, for
implementing DELAY(9). For USIII and beyond, this would also allow
to easily use the STICK counter instead of the TICK one here,
there's no benefit in doing so however.
While at it, use cpu_spinwait(9) for spinning in the delay-
functions. This currently is a NOP though.
- Don't set the TICK timer of the BSP to 0 during at startup as
there's no need to do so.
- Implement cpu_est_clockrate().
- Unfortunately, USIIIi-based machines don't provide a timecounter
device besides the STICK and TICK counters (well, in theory the
Tomatillo bridges have a performance counter that can be (ab)used
as timecounter by configuring it to count bus cycles, though unlike
the performance counter of Schizo bridges, the Tomatillo one is
broken and counts Sun knows what in this mode). This means that
we've to use a (S)TICK counter for timecounting, which has the old
problem of not being in sync across CPUs, so provide an additional
timecounter function which binds itself to the BSP but has an
adequate low priority.

- In tick_start() don't reset the tick counter of the boot processor to
zero. It's initially reset in _start() and afterwards but _before_
tick_start() is called on the BSP the APs synchronise with the tick
counter of the BSP in mp_startup(). Resetting the tick counter of the
BSP in tick_start() probably also was the cause of problems seen when
using the CPU tick counter as timecounter on SMP machines.
Not resetting the tick counter of the BSP in mp_startup() makes the
tick counters and tick interrupts between the BSP and APs be pretty
much in sync as it's supposed to be. This also means there's no longer
a real reason to have separate tick_start() and tick_start_ap() so
merge them and zap tick_start_ap(). This is also a first step in
simplifying the interface to the tick counters in preparation to use
alternate clock hardware where available.
- Switch to the algorithm used on FreeBSD/ia64 for updating the tick
interrupt register and which compensates the clock drift caused by
varying delays between when the tick interrupts actually trigger and
when they are serviced. Not compensating the clock drift mainly hurts
interactive performance especially when using WITNESS. [2]
For further information about the algorithm also see the commit log
of sys/ia64/ia64/interrupt.c rev. 1.38.
On sparc64 the sysctls for monitoring the behaviour of the tick
interrupts are machdep.tick.adjust_edges, machdep.tick.adjust_excess,
machdep.tick.adjust_missed and machdep.tick.adjust_ticks.
- In tick_init() just use tick_stop() for stopping the tick interrupts
until a proper handler is set up later. This also stops the system
tick interrupt on USIII systems earlier.
- In tick_start() check for a rough upper limit of HZ.
- Some minor changes, e.g. use FBSDID, remove unused headers, etc.

struct vmspace is freed from cpu_sched_exit() to pmap_release().
This has the advantage of being able to rely on MI code to decide
when a free should occur, instead of having to inspect the reference
count ourselves.
At the same time, turn the per-CPU vmspace pointer into a pmap pointer,
so that pmap_release() can deal with pmaps exclusively.

from the tlb. This makes use of the array indexed by cpuid to allow a pmap
to have a different context number on a different cpu. If the context numbers
are then divided evenly among cpus such that none are shared, we can avoid
sending tlb shootdown ipis in an smp system for non-shared pmaps. This also
removes a limit of 8192 processes (pmaps) that could be active at any given
time due to running out of tlb contexts.

Crucial bugfix from: tmm
- The MI portions of struct globaldata have been consolidated into a MI
struct pcpu. The MD per-CPU data are specified via a macro defined in
machine/pcpu.h. A macro was chosen over a struct mdpcpu so that the
interface would be cleaner (PCPU_GET(my_md_field) vs.
PCPU_GET(md.md_my_md_field)).
- All references to globaldata are changed to pcpu instead. In a UP kernel,
this data was stored as global variables which is where the original name
came from. In an SMP world this data is per-CPU and ideally private to each
CPU outside of the context of debuggers. This also included combining
machine/globaldata.h and machine/globals.h into machine/pcpu.h.
- The pointer to the thread using the FPU on i386 was renamed from
npxthread to fpcurthread to be identical with other architectures.
- Make the show pcpu ddb command MI with a MD callout to display MD
fields.
- The globaldata_register() function was renamed to pcpu_init() and now
init's MI fields of a struct pcpu in addition to registering it with
the internal array and list.
- A pcpu_destroy() function was added to remove a struct pcpu from the
internal array and list.

architecture, including empty versions of all the machine dependent

- 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.
