5cd612b27e - Removed UMAXPTDI and UMAXPTEOFF.
- Changed VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS to be defined in terms of PTDPTDI.  In order for
  assumptions about the recursive page table map to work it must be the base
  of the recursive map.  Any pte offset that's not NPTEPG will break these
  assumptions.

910548dea7 - Added macros NPGPTD, NBPTD, and NPDEPTD, for dealing with the size of the
page directory.
- Use these instead of the magic constants 1 or PAGE_SIZE where appropriate.
  There are still numerous assumptions that the page directory is exactly
  1 page.

f1b665c8fe Revive backed out pmap related changes from Feb 2002. The highlights are:
- It actually works this time, honest!
- Fine grained TLB shootdowns for SMP on i386.  IPI's are very expensive,
  so try and optimize things where possible.
- Introduce ranged shootdowns that can be done as a single IPI.
- PG_G support for i386
- Specific-cpu targeted shootdowns.  For example, there is no sense in
  globally purging the TLB cache for where we are stealing a page from
  the local unshared process on the local cpu.  Use pm_active to track
  this.
- Add some instrumentation for the tlb shootdown code.
- Rip out SMP code from <machine/cpufunc.h>
- Try and fix some very bogus PG_G and PG_PS interactions that were bad
  enough to cause vm86 bios calls to break.  vm86 depended on our existing
  bugs and this was the cause of the VESA panics last time.
- Fix the silly one-line error that caused the 'panic: bad pte' last time.
- Fix a couple of other silly one-line errors that should have caused more
  pain than they did.

Some more work is needed:
- pmap_{zero,copy}_page[_idle].  These can be done without IPI's if we
  have a hook in cpu_switch.
- The IPI handlers need some cleanup.  I have a bogus %ds load that can
  be avoided.
- APTD handling is rather bogus and appears to be a large source of
  global TLB IPI shootdowns for no really good reason.

I see speedups of between 1.5% and ~4% on buildworlds in a while 1 loop.
I expect to see a bigger difference when there is significant pageout
activity or the system otherwise has memory shortages.

I have backed out a few optimizations that I had been using over the last
few days in order to be a little more conservative.  I'll revisit these
again over the next few days as the dust settles.

New option:  DISABLE_PG_G - In case I missed something.

d1693e1701 Back out all the pmap related stuff I've touched over the last few days.
There is some unresolved badness that has been eluding me, particularly
affecting uniprocessor kernels.  Turning off PG_G helped (which is a bad
sign) but didn't solve it entirely.  Userland programs still crashed.

6bd95d70db Work-in-progress commit syncing up pmap cleanups that I have been working
on for a while:
- fine grained TLB shootdown for SMP on i386
- ranged TLB shootdowns.. eg: specify a range of pages to shoot down with
  a single IPI, since the IPI is very expensive.  Adjust some callers
  that used to trigger this inside tight loops to do a ranged shootdown
  at the end instead.
- PG_G support for SMP on i386 (options ENABLE_PG_G)
- defer PG_G activation till after we decide what we are going to do with
  PSE and the 4MB pages at the start of the kernel.  This should solve
  some rumored strangeness about stale PG_G entries getting stuck
  underneath the 4MB pages.
- add some instrumentation for the fine TLB shootdown
- convert some asm instruction wrappers from functions to inlines.  gcc
  seems to do a fair bit better with this.
- [temporarily!] pessimize the tlb shootdown IPI handlers.  I will fix
  this again shortly.

This has been working fairly well for me for a while, but I have tweaked
it again prior to commit since my last major testing round.  The only
outstanding problem that I know of is PG_G related, which is why there
is an option for it (not on by default for SMP).  I have seen a world
speedups by a few percent (as much as 4 or 5% in one case) but I have
*not* accurately measured this - I am a bit sceptical of these numbers.

6729cb8800 Start bringing i386/pmap.c into line with cleanups that were done to
alpha pmap.  In particular -
- pd_entry_t and pt_entry_t are now u_int32_t instead of a pointer.
  This is to enable cleaner PAE and x86-64 support down the track sor
  that we can change the pd_entry_t/pt_entry_t types to 64 bit entities.
- Terminate "unsigned *ptep, pte" with extreme prejudice and use the
  correct pt_entry_t/pd_entry_t types.
- Various other cosmetic changes to match cleanups elsewhere.
- This eliminates a boatload of casts.
- use VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS in place of UPT_MIN_ADDRESS in a couple of places
  where we're testing user address space limits.  Assuming the page tables
  start directly after the end of user space is not a safe assumption.
There is still more to go.

083e9ed543 Increase NKPT from 17 to 30. This fixes the 4GB ram boot panic on both
-current and RELENG_4 with GENERIC.

NKPT is the number of initial bootstrap page table pages we create for
the kernel during startup. Once VM is up, we resize it as needed, but
with 4G ram, the size of the vm_page_t structures was pushing it over
the limit.  The fact that trimmed down kernels boot on 4G ram machines
suggests that we were pretty close to the edge.

The "30" is arbitary, but smaller than the 'nkpt' variable on all
machines that I checked.

d9b05734cc Prepare for a cleanup of pmap module API pollution introduced by the
suggested fix in PR 12378.

Keep track of all existing pmaps independent of existing processes.

This allows for a process to temporarily connect to a different address
space without the risk of missing an update of the original address space if
the kernel grows.

pmap_pinit2() is no longer needed on the i386 platform but is left as a
stub until the alpha pmap code is updated.

0385347c1a Implement an optimization of the VM<->pmap API. Pass vm_page_t's directly
to various pmap_*() functions instead of looking up the physical address
and passing that.  In many cases, the first thing the pmap code was doing
was going to a lot of trouble to get back the original vm_page_t, or
it's shadow pv_table entry.

Inspired by: John Dyson's 1998 patches.

Also:
Eliminate pv_table as a seperate thing and build it into a machine
dependent part of vm_page_t.  This eliminates having a seperate set of
structions that shadow each other in a 1:1 fashion that we often went to
a lot of trouble to translate from one to the other. (see above)
This happens to save 4 bytes of physical memory for each page in the
system.  (8 bytes on the Alpha).

Eliminate the use of the phys_avail[] array to determine if a page is
managed (ie: it has pv_entries etc).  Store this information in a flag.
Things like device_pager set it because they create vm_page_t's on the
fly that do not have pv_entries.  This makes it easier to "unmanage" a
page of physical memory (this will be taken advantage of in subsequent
commits).

Add a function to add a new page to the freelist.  This could be used
for reclaiming the previously wasted pages left over from preloaded
loader(8) files.

b3196e4b9f Preliminary support for per-cpu data pages.
This eliminates a lot of #ifdef SMP type code.  Things like _curproc reside
in a data page that is unique on each cpu, eliminating the expensive macros
like:    #define curproc (SMPcurproc[cpunumber()])

There are some unresolved bootstrap and address space sharing issues at
present, but Steve is waiting on this for other work.  There is still some
strictly temporary code present that isn't exactly pretty.

This is part of a larger change that has run into some bumps, this part is
standalone so it should be safe.  The temporary code goes away when the
full idle cpu support is finished.

4f4d35edf0 This commit is meant to solve a couple of VM system problems or
performance issues.

	1) The pmap module has had too many inlines, and so the
	   object file is simply bigger than it needs to be.
	   Some common code is also merged into subroutines.
	2) Removal of some *evil* PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE macro calls.
	   Unfortunately, a few have needed to be added also.
	   The removal caused the need for more vm_page_lookups.
	   I added lookup hints to minimize the need for the
	   page table lookup operations.
	3) Removal of some bogus performance improvements, that
	   mostly made the code more complex (tracking individual
	   page table page updates unnecessarily).  Those improvements
	   actually hurt 386 processors perf (not that people who
	   worry about perf use 386 processors anymore :-)).
	4) Changed pv queue manipulations/structures to be TAILQ's.
	5) The pv queue code has had some performance problems since
	   day one.  Some significant scalability issues are resolved
	   by threading the pv entries from the pmap AND the physical
	   address instead of just the physical address.  This makes
	   certain pmap operations run much faster.  This does
	   not affect most micro-benchmarks, but should help loaded system
	   performance *significantly*.  DG helped and came up with most
	   of the solution for this one.
	6) Most if not all pmap bit operations follow the pattern:
		pmap_test_bit();
		pmap_clear_bit();
	   That made for twice the necessary pv list traversal.   The
	   pmap interface now supports only pmap_tc_bit type operations:
	   pmap_[test/clear]_modified, pmap_[test/clear]_referenced.
	   Additionally, the modified routine now takes a vm_page_t arg
	   instead of a phys address.  This eliminates a PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE
	   operation.
	7) Several rewrites of routines that contain redundant code to
	   use common routines, so that there is a greater likelihood of
	   keeping the cache footprint smaller.

b18bfc3da7 This set of commits to the VM system does the following, and contain
contributions or ideas from Stephen McKay <syssgm@devetir.qld.gov.au>,
Alan Cox <alc@cs.rice.edu>, David Greenman <davidg@freebsd.org> and me:

	More usage of the TAILQ macros.  Additional minor fix to queue.h.
	Performance enhancements to the pageout daemon.
		Addition of a wait in the case that the pageout daemon
		has to run immediately.
		Slightly modify the pageout algorithm.
	Significant revamp of the pmap/fork code:
		1) PTE's and UPAGES's are NO LONGER in the process's map.
		2) PTE's and UPAGES's reside in their own objects.
		3) TOTAL elimination of recursive page table pagefaults.
		4) The page directory now resides in the PTE object.
		5) Implemented pmap_copy, thereby speeding up fork time.
		6) Changed the pv entries so that the head is a pointer
		   and not an entire entry.
		7) Significant cleanup of pmap_protect, and pmap_remove.
		8) Removed significant amounts of machine dependent
		   fork code from vm_glue.  Pushed much of that code into
		   the machine dependent pmap module.
		9) Support more completely the reuse of already zeroed
		   pages (Page table pages and page directories) as being
		   already zeroed.
	Performance and code cleanups in vm_map:
		1) Improved and simplified allocation of map entries.
		2) Improved vm_map_copy code.
		3) Corrected some minor problems in the simplify code.
	Implemented splvm (combo of splbio and splimp.)  The VM code now
		seldom uses splhigh.
	Improved the speed of and simplified kmem_malloc.
	Minor mod to vm_fault to avoid using pre-zeroed pages in the case
		of objects with backing objects along with the already
		existant condition of having a vnode.  (If there is a backing
		object, there will likely be a COW...  With a COW, it isn't
		necessary to start with a pre-zeroed page.)
	Minor reorg of source to perhaps improve locality of ref.

24a1cce34f NOTE: libkvm, w, ps, 'top', and any other utility which depends on struct
proc or any VM system structure will have to be rebuilt!!!

Much needed overhaul of the VM system. Included in this first round of
changes:

1) Improved pager interfaces: init, alloc, dealloc, getpages, putpages,
   haspage, and sync operations are supported. The haspage interface now
   provides information about clusterability. All pager routines now take
   struct vm_object's instead of "pagers".

2) Improved data structures. In the previous paradigm, there is constant
   confusion caused by pagers being both a data structure ("allocate a
   pager") and a collection of routines. The idea of a pager structure has
   escentially been eliminated. Objects now have types, and this type is
   used to index the appropriate pager. In most cases, items in the pager
   structure were duplicated in the object data structure and thus were
   unnecessary. In the few cases that remained, a un_pager structure union
   was created in the object to contain these items.

3) Because of the cleanup of #1 & #2, a lot of unnecessary layering can now
   be removed. For instance, vm_object_enter(), vm_object_lookup(),
   vm_object_remove(), and the associated object hash list were some of the
   things that were removed.

4) simple_lock's removed. Discussion with several people reveals that the
   SMP locking primitives used in the VM system aren't likely the mechanism
   that we'll be adopting. Even if it were, the locking that was in the code
   was very inadequate and would have to be mostly re-done anyway. The
   locking in a uni-processor kernel was a no-op but went a long way toward
   making the code difficult to read and debug.

5) Places that attempted to kludge-up the fact that we don't have kernel
   thread support have been fixed to reflect the reality that we are really
   dealing with processes, not threads. The VM system didn't have complete
   thread support, so the comments and mis-named routines were just wrong.
   We now use tsleep and wakeup directly in the lock routines, for instance.

6) Where appropriate, the pagers have been improved, especially in the
   pager_alloc routines. Most of the pager_allocs have been rewritten and
   are now faster and easier to maintain.

7) The pagedaemon pageout clustering algorithm has been rewritten and
   now tries harder to output an even number of pages before and after
   the requested page. This is sort of the reverse of the ideal pagein
   algorithm and should provide better overall performance.

8) Unnecessary (incorrect) casts to caddr_t in calls to tsleep & wakeup
   have been removed. Some other unnecessary casts have also been removed.

9) Some almost useless debugging code removed.

10) Terminology of shadow objects vs. backing objects straightened out.
    The fact that the vm_object data structure escentially had this
    backwards really confused things. The use of "shadow" and "backing
    object" throughout the code is now internally consistent and correct
    in the Mach terminology.

11) Several minor bug fixes, including one in the vm daemon that caused
    0 RSS objects to not get purged as intended.

12) A "default pager" has now been created which cleans up the transition
    of objects to the "swap" type. The previous checks throughout the code
    for swp->pg_data != NULL were really ugly. This change also provides
    the rudiments for future backing of "anonymous" memory by something
    other than the swap pager (via the vnode pager, for example), and it
    allows the decision about which of these pagers to use to be made
    dynamically (although will need some additional decision code to do
    this, of course).

13) (dyson) MAP_COPY has been deprecated and the corresponding "copy
    object" code has been removed. MAP_COPY was undocumented and non-
    standard. It was furthermore broken in several ways which caused its
    behavior to degrade to MAP_PRIVATE. Binaries that use MAP_COPY will
    continue to work correctly, but via the slightly different semantics
    of MAP_PRIVATE.

14) (dyson) Sharing maps have been removed. It's marginal usefulness in a
    threads design can be worked around in other ways. Both #12 and #13
    were done to simplify the code and improve readability and maintain-
    ability. (As were most all of these changes)

TODO:

1) Rewrite most of the vnode pager to use VOP_GETPAGES/PUTPAGES. Doing
   this will reduce the vnode pager to a mere fraction of its current size.

2) Rewrite vm_fault and the swap/vnode pagers to use the clustering
   information provided by the new haspage pager interface. This will
   substantially reduce the overhead by eliminating a large number of
   VOP_BMAP() calls. The VOP_BMAP() filesystem interface should be
   improved to provide both a "behind" and "ahead" indication of
   contiguousness.

3) Implement the extended features of pager_haspage in swap_pager_haspage().
   It currently just says 0 pages ahead/behind.

4) Re-implement the swap device (swstrategy) in a more elegant way, perhaps
   via a much more general mechanism that could also be used for disk
   striping of regular filesystems.

5) Do something to improve the architecture of vm_object_collapse(). The
   fact that it makes calls into the swap pager and knows too much about
   how the swap pager operates really bothers me. It also doesn't allow
   for collapsing of non-swap pager objects ("unnamed" objects backed by
   other pagers).

0d94caffca These changes embody the support of the fully coherent merged VM buffer cache,
much higher filesystem I/O performance, and much better paging performance. It
represents the culmination of over 6 months of R&D.

The majority of the merged VM/cache work is by John Dyson.

The following highlights the most significant changes. Additionally, there are
(mostly minor) changes to the various filesystem modules (nfs, msdosfs, etc) to
support the new VM/buffer scheme.

vfs_bio.c:
Significant rewrite of most of vfs_bio to support the merged VM buffer cache
scheme.  The scheme is almost fully compatible with the old filesystem
interface.  Significant improvement in the number of opportunities for write
clustering.

vfs_cluster.c, vfs_subr.c
Upgrade and performance enhancements in vfs layer code to support merged
VM/buffer cache.  Fixup of vfs_cluster to eliminate the bogus pagemove stuff.

vm_object.c:
Yet more improvements in the collapse code.  Elimination of some windows that
can cause list corruption.

vm_pageout.c:
Fixed it, it really works better now.  Somehow in 2.0, some "enhancements"
broke the code.  This code has been reworked from the ground-up.

vm_fault.c, vm_page.c, pmap.c, vm_object.c
Support for small-block filesystems with merged VM/buffer cache scheme.

pmap.c vm_map.c
Dynamic kernel VM size, now we dont have to pre-allocate excessive numbers of
kernel PTs.

vm_glue.c
Much simpler and more effective swapping code.  No more gratuitous swapping.

proc.h
Fixed the problem that the p_lock flag was not being cleared on a fork.

swap_pager.c, vnode_pager.c
Removal of old vfs_bio cruft to support the past pseudo-coherency.  Now the
code doesn't need it anymore.

machdep.c
Changes to better support the parameter values for the merged VM/buffer cache
scheme.

machdep.c, kern_exec.c, vm_glue.c
Implemented a seperate submap for temporary exec string space and another one
to contain process upages. This eliminates all map fragmentation problems
that previously existed.

ffs_inode.c, ufs_inode.c, ufs_readwrite.c
Changes for merged VM/buffer cache.  Add "bypass" support for sneaking in on
busy buffers.

- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.

is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.

04f1835605 1) "Pre-faulting" in of pages into process address space
Eliminates vm_fault overhead on process startup and
		mmap referenced data for in-memory pages.

		(process startup time using in-memory segments *much* faster)

	2)	Even more efficient pmap code.  Code partially cleaned up.
		More comments yet to follow.

		(generally more efficient pte management)

	3)	Pageout clustering ( in addition to the FreeBSD V1.1 pagein
		clustering.)

		(much faster paging performance on non-write behind disk
		subsystems, slightly faster performance on other systems.)

	4)	Slightly changed vm_pageout code for more efficiency and
		better statistics.  Also, resist swapout a little more.

		(less likely to pageout a recently used page)

	5)	Slight improvement to the page table page trap efficiency.

		(generally faster system VM fault performance)

	6)	Defer creation of unnamed anonymous regions pager until needed.

		(speeds up shared memory bss creation)

	7)	Remove possible deadlock from swap_pager initialization.

	8)	Enhanced procfs to provide "vminfo" about vm objects and user
		pmaps.

	9)	Increased MCLSHIFT/MCLBYTES from 2K to 4K to improve net &
		socket performance and to prepare for things to come.

ec120393a0 VM system performance improvements from John Dyson and myself. The
following is a summary:

1) increased object cache back up to a more reasonable value.
2) removed old & bogus cruft from machdep.c (clearseg, copyseg,
	physcopyseg, etc).
3) inlined many functions in pmap.c
4) changed "load_cr3(rcr3())" into tlbflush() and made tlbflush inline
	assembly.
5) changed the way that modified pages are tracked - now vm_page struct
	is kept updated directly - no more scanning page tables.
6) removed lots of unnecessary spl's
7) removed old unused functions from pmap.c
8) removed all use of page_size, page_shift, page_mask variables - replaced
	with PAGE_ constants.
9) moved trunc/round_page, atop, ptoa, out of vm_param.h and into i386/
	include/param.h, and optimized them.
10) numerous changes to sys/vm/ swap_pager, vnode_pager, pageout, fault
	code to improve performance. LRU algorithm modified to be more
	effective, read ahead/behind values tuned for better performance,
	etc, etc...

aaf08d94ca Make everything compile with -Wtraditional. Make it easier to distribute
a binary link-kit.  Make all non-optional options (pagers, procfs) standard,
and update LINT to reflect new symtab requirements.

NB: -Wtraditional will henceforth be forgotten.  This editing pass was
primarily intended to detect any constructions where the old code might
have been relying on traditional C semantics or syntax.  These were all
fixed, and the result of fixing some of them means that -Wall is now a
realistic possibility within a few weeks.

0967373e1c First steps in rewriting locore.s, and making info useful
when the machine panics.

i386/i386/locore.s:
1) got rid of most .set directives that were being used like
	#define's, and replaced them with appropriate #define's in
	the appropriate header files (accessed via genassym).
2) added comments to header inclusions and global definitions,
	and global variables
3) replaced some hardcoded constants with cpp defines (such as
	PDESIZE and others)
4) aligned all comments to the same column to make them easier to
	read
5) moved macro definitions for ENTRY, ALIGN, NOP, etc. to
	/sys/i386/include/asmacros.h
6) added #ifdef BDE_DEBUGGER around all of Bruce's debugger code
7) added new global '_KERNend' to store last location+1 of kernel
8) cleaned up zeroing of bss so that only bss is zeroed
9) fix zeroing of page tables so that it really does zero them all
	- not just if they follow the bss.
10) rewrote page table initialization code so that 1) works correctly
	and 2) write protects the kernel text by default
11) properly initialize the kernel page directory, upages, p0stack PT,
	and page tables. The previous scheme was more than a bit
	screwy.
12) change allocation of virtual area of IO hole so that it is
	fixed at KERNBASE + 0xa0000. The previous scheme put it
	right after the kernel page tables and then later expected
	it to be at KERNBASE +0xa0000
13) change multiple bogus settings of user read/write of various
	areas of kernel VM - including the IO hole; we should never
	be accessing the IO hole in user mode through the kernel
	page tables
14) split kernel support routines such as bcopy, bzero, copyin,
	copyout, etc. into a seperate file 'support.s'
15) split swtch and related routines into a seperate 'swtch.s'
16) split routines related to traps, syscalls, and interrupts
	into a seperate file 'exception.s'
17) remove some unused global variables from locore that got
	inserted by Garrett when he pulled them out of some .h
	files.

i386/isa/icu.s:
1) clean up global variable declarations
2) move in declaration of astpending and netisr

i386/i386/pmap.c:
1) fix calculation of virtual_avail. It previously was calculated
	to be right in the middle of the kernel page tables - not
	a good place to start allocating kernel VM.
2) properly allocate kernel page dir/tables etc out of kernel map
	- previously only took out 2 pages.

i386/i386/machdep.c:
1) modify boot() to print a warning that the system will reboot in
	PANIC_REBOOT_WAIT_TIME amount of seconds, and let the user
	abort with a key on the console. The machine will wait for
	ever if a key is typed before the reboot. The default is
	15 seconds, but can be set to 0 to mean don't wait at all,
	-1 to mean wait forever, or any positive value to wait for
	that many seconds.
2) print "Rebooting..." just before doing it.

kern/subr_prf.c:
1) remove PANICWAIT as it is deprecated by the change to machdep.c

i386/i386/trap.c:
1) add table of trap type strings and use it to print a real trap/
	panic message rather than just a number. Lot's of work to
	be done here, but this is the first step. Symbolic traceback
	is in the TODO.

i386/i386/Makefile.i386:
1) add support in to build support.s, exception.s and swtch.s

...and various changes to various header files to make all of the
	above happen.

Document that KERNBASE should really be KPTDPTDI << PDRSHIFT, for
now leave it as the constant 0xFE000000 until I make a seperate
common header file for this stuff (vmaddresses.h?)

Remove NKMEMCLUSTERS define, it was only being used to define
VM_KMEM_SIZE, so why have all the indirection.  Besides who wants
to work in CLBYTE sizes chuncks.


pmap.h:

Fix $Id$ and some other minor format clean ups.

Remove the XXX comment about NKPDE, since it now has the correct value
of 7.

Remove unused LASTPTDI and move the APTD into the very end of memory to
free up 4MB of kernel virtual address space.
Remove unused RSVDPTDI and free up 12MB of kernel virtual address space.


vmparam.h

Fix $Id$.

Increase SHMMAXPGS to 512 (2MB) now that there is room for it to be
bigger.  The XXX comment stays until the kernel moves down in memory
to free up enough space to use the proper default of 4MB.

VM_KMEM_SIZE is now a direct constant stating the size of the kernel
malloc region.  Increased the value from 3MB to 16MB.
