Previously, bzero was a function pointer on i386, to save a jmp to
bzero_vector. Get rid of this microoptimization as it only confuses
things, adds machine-dependent code to an MD header, and doesn't really
save all that much.
This commit does not add my pagezero() / pagecopy() code.
as it could be and can do with some more cleanup. Currently its under
options LAZY_SWITCH. What this does is avoid %cr3 reloads for short
context switches that do not involve another user process. ie: we can
take an interrupt, switch to a kthread and return to the user without
explicitly flushing the tlb. However, this isn't as exciting as it could
be, the interrupt overhead is still high and too much blocks on Giant
still. There are some debug sysctls, for stats and for an on/off switch.
The main problem with doing this has been "what if the process that you're
running on exits while we're borrowing its address space?" - in this case
we use an IPI to give it a kick when we're about to reclaim the pmap.
Its not compiled in unless you add the LAZY_SWITCH option. I want to fix a
few more things and get some more feedback before turning it on by default.
This is NOT a replacement for Bosko's lazy interrupt stuff. This was more
meant for the kthread case, while his was for interrupts. Mine helps a
little for interrupts, but his helps a lot more.
The stats are enabled with options SWTCH_OPTIM_STATS - this has been a
pseudo-option for years, I just added a bunch of stuff to it.
One non-trivial change was to select a new thread before calling
cpu_switch() in the first place. This allows us to catch the silly
case of doing a cpu_switch() to the current process. This happens
uncomfortably often. This simplifies a bit of the asm code in cpu_switch
(no longer have to call choosethread() in the middle). This has been
implemented on i386 and (thanks to jake) sparc64. The others will come
soon. This is actually seperate to the lazy switch stuff.

accessing an alternate address space this causes 1 page table page at
a time to be mapped in, rather than using the recursive mapping technique
to map in an entire alternate address space. The recursive mapping
technique changes large portions of the address space and requires global
tlb flushes, which seem to cause problems when PAE is enabled. This will
also allow IPIs to be avoided when mapping in new page table pages using
the same technique as is used for pmap_copy_page and pmap_zero_page.

This keeps the logical cpu's halted in the idle loop. By default
the logical cpu's are halted at startup. It is also possible to
halt any cpu in the idle loop now using machdep.hlt_cpus.
Examples of how to use this:
machdep.hlt_cpus=1 halt cpu0
machdep.hlt_cpus=2 halt cpu1
machdep.hlt_cpus=4 halt cpu2
machdep.hlt_cpus=3 halt cpu0,cpu1

#if'ed out for a while. Complete the deed and tidy up some other bits.
We need to be able to call this stuff from outer edges of interrupt
handlers for devices that have the ISR bits in pci config space. Making
the bios code mpsafe was just too hairy. We had also stubbed it out some
time ago due to there simply being too much brokenness in too many systems.
This adds a leaf lock so that it is safe to use pci_read_config() and
pci_write_config() from interrupt handlers. We still will use pcibios
to do interrupt routing if there is no acpi.. [yes, I tested this]

o Add a MI header private to libc called fpmath.h; this header

o Add private libc variables to lib/libc/$arch/gen/infinity.c for

o Add __double_t and __float_t to <machine/_types.h>, and provide
double_t and float_t typedefs in <math.h>.
o Add some C99 manifest constants (FP_ILOGB0, FP_ILOGBNAN, HUGE_VALF,
HUGE_VALL, INFINITY, NAN, and return values for fpclassify()) to
<math.h> and others (FLT_EVAL_METHOD, DECIMAL_DIG) to <float.h> via
<machine/float.h>.
o Add C99 macro fpclassify() which calls __fpclassify{d,f,l}() based
on the size of its argument. __fpclassifyl() is never called on
alpha because (sizeof(long double) == sizeof(double)), which is good
since __fpclassifyl() can't deal with such a small `long double'.

don't use this anyway. This removes the need for statclock_process, whose
only purpose was to subdivide profhz, and gets the profiling clock running

Also changed the interface for starting and stopping the profiling clock to
do just that, instead of changing the rate of statclock, since they can now

counterparts to bus_dmamem_alloc() and bus_dmamem_free(). This allows
the caller to specify the size of the allocation instead of it defaulting
to the max_size field of the busdma tag.
This is intended to aid in converting drivers to busdma. Lots of
hardware cannot understand scatter/gather lists, which forces the
driver to copy the i/o buffers to a single contiguous region
before sending it to the hardware. Without these new methods, this
would require a new busdma tag for each operation, or a complex
internal allocator/cache for each driver.
Allocations greater than PAGE_SIZE are rounded up to the next
PAGE_SIZE by contigmalloc(), so this is not suitable for multiple
static allocations that would be better served by a single
fixed-length subdivided allocation.

in the mptable. The way this works is that we determine if the system
has hyperthreading and how many logical CPU's should be in each physical
CPU by using the information returned by cpuid. During the first pass of
the mptable, we build a bitmask of the APIC IDs of the CPUs listed in the
mptable. We then scan that bitmask to see if the CPUs are already listed
by the mptable, or if there are any APIC IDs already in use that would
conflict with the APIC IDs of the logical CPUs. If that test succeeds,
then we fixup the count of application processors. Later on during the
second pass of the mptable we create fake processor entries for logical
CPUs and add them to the system.
We only need this type of fixup hack when using the mptable to enumerate
CPUs. The ACPI MADT table properly enumerates all logical CPUs.
