Make sure FPU is recognized for non-Intel CPUs.
The log for rev.1.7 should have said something like:
Added FPU_ERROR_BROKEN option. This forces a successful probe for
exception 16, so that hardware with a broken FPU error signal can sort
of work.
Use the normal interrupt handler (npx_intr()) instead of a special
probe-time interrupt handler, although this causes problems due to
the bus_teardown_intr() not actually even tearing down the interrupt
(these problems were avoided by doing interrupt attachment for the
special interrupt handler directly). Fixed minor bitrot in comments.
The reason for the npxprobe()/npxprobe1() split mostly went away at
about the same time it was made (in 1992 or 1993 just before the
beginning of history). 386BSD ran all probes with interrupts completely
masked, and I didn't want to disturb this when I added an irq probe
to npxprobe(). An irq (not necessarily npx) must be acked for at least
external npx's to take the cpu out of the wait state that it enters
when an npx error occurs, so the probe must be done with a suitable
irq unmasked. npxprobe() went to great lengths to unmask precisely
the npx irq.
Running probes with all interrupts masked was never really needed in
FreeBSD, since FreeBSD always masked interrupts well enough using
splhigh(), but it wasn't until rev.1.48 (1995/12/12) of autoconf.c
that all probes were run with CPU interrupts enabled. This permits
npxprobe() to probe its irq using normal interrupt resources. Note
that most drivers still can't depend on this. It depends on the
interrupt handler being fast and the irq not being shared.
lost when the buggy code goes away completely:
- don't assume that the npx irq number is >= 8. Rev.1.73 only reversed
part of the hard-coding of it to 13 in rev.1.66.
- backed out the part of rev.1.84 that added a highly confused comment
about an enable_intr() being "highly bogus". The whole reason for
existence of npxprobe() (separate from the main probe, npxprobe1())
is to handle the complications to make this enable_intr() safe.
- backed out the part of rev.1.94 that modified npxprobe(). It mainly
broke the enable_intr() to restore_intr(). Restoring the interrupt
state in a nested way is precisely what is not wanted here. It was
harmless in practice because npxprobe() is called with interrupts
enabled, so restoring the interrupt state enables interrupts. Most
of npxprobe() is a no-op for the same reason...
code in ipl.s and icu_ipl.s that used them was removed when the
interrupt thread system was committed. Debuggers also knew about
Xresume* because these labels hide the real names of the interrupt
handlers (Xintr*), and debuggers need to special-case interrupt
handlers to get the interrupt frame.
Both gdb and ddb will now use the Xintr* and Xfastintr* symbols to
detect interrupt frames. Fast interrupt frames were never identified
correctly before, so this fixes the problem of the running stack
frame getting lost in a ddb or gdb trace generated from a fast
interrupt - e.g. when debugging a simple infinite loop in the kernel
using a serial console, the frame containing the loop would never
appear in a gdb or ddb trace.

The type of bus_space_tag_t is now a pointer to bus_space_tag structure,

the looping in ast() in assembly rather than in the ast() function itself.
Once we've actually called into the ast() function, it's cheaper to just
loop inside the function rather than returning from the function,
performing the check, and then calling the function again. However, we
can optimize the first check to avoid calling the function at all.
Other architectures may choose to implement this optimization if they

npxsave() went to great lengths to excecute fnsave with interrupts
enabled in case executing it froze the CPU. This case can't happen,
at least for Intel CPU/NPX's. Spurious IRQ13's don't imply spurious
freezes. Anyway, the complications were usually no-ops because IRQ13
is not used on i486's and newer CPUs, and because SMPng broke them in
rev.1.84. Forcible enabling of interrupts was changed to
write_eflags(old_eflags), but since SMPng usually calls npxsave() from
cpu_switch() with interrupts disabled, write_eflags() usually just
kept interrupts disabled.
npxinit() didn't have the usual race because it doesn't save to curpcb,
but it may have had a worse form of it since it uses the npx when it
doesn't "own" it. I'm not sure if locking prevented this. npxinit()
is normally caled with the proc lock but not sched_lock.
Use a critical region to protect pushing of curproc's npx state to
curpcb in npxexit(). Not doing so was harmless since it at worst
saved a wrong state to a dieing pcb.
handling, SMPng always switches the npx context away from curproc
before calling the handler, so the handler always paniced. When using
exception 16 exception handling, SMPng sometimes switches the npx
context away from curproc before calling the handler, so the handler
sometimes paniced. Also, we didn't lock the context while using it,
so we sometimes didn't detect the switch and then paniced in a less
controlled way.
Just lock the context while using it, and return without doing anything
except clearing the busy latch if the context is not for curproc. This
fixes the exception 16 case and makes the IRQ13 case harmless. In both
cases, the instruction that caused the exception is restarted and the
exception repeats. In the exception 16 case, we soon get an exception
that can be handled without doing anything special. In the IRQ13 case,
we get an easy to kill hung process.

- It splits the per-process portions of hardclock() and statclock() off
into hardclock_process() and statclock_process() respectively. hardclock()
and statclock() call the *_process() functions for the current process so
that UP systems will run as before. For SMP systems, it is simply necessary
to ensure that all other processors execute the *_process() functions when the
main clock functions are triggered on one CPU by an interrupt. For the alpha
4100, clock interrupts are delievered in a staggered broadcast fashion, so
we simply call hardclock/statclock on the boot CPU and call the *_process()
functions on the secondaries. For x86, we call statclock and hardclock as
usual and then call forward_hardclock/statclock in the MD code to send an IPI
to cause the AP's to execute forwared_hardclock/statclock which then call the
*_process() functions.
- forward_signal() and forward_roundrobin() have been reworked to be MI and to
involve less hackery. Now the cpu doing the forward sets any flags, etc. and
sends a very simple IPI_AST to the other cpu(s). AST IPIs now just basically
return so that they can execute ast() and don't bother with setting the
astpending or needresched flags themselves. This also removes the loop in
forward_signal() as sched_lock closes the race condition that the loop worked
around.
- need_resched(), resched_wanted() and clear_resched() have been changed to take
a process to act on rather than assuming curproc so that they can be used to
implement forward_roundrobin() as described above.
- Various other SMP variables have been moved to a MI subr_smp.c and a new
header sys/smp.h declares MI SMP variables and API's. The IPI API's from
machine/ipl.h have moved to machine/smp.h which is included by sys/smp.h.
- The globaldata_register() and globaldata_find() functions as well as the
SLIST of globaldata structures has become MI and moved into subr_smp.c.

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code

actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.
