route interrupts if the child bus is described in the PCIBIOS interrupt
routing table. For child busses that are in the routing table, they do
not necessarily use a 'swizzle' on their pins on the parent bus to route
interrupts for child devices. If the child bus is an embedded device then
the pins on the child devices can be (and usually are) directly connected
either to a PIC or to a Interrupt Router. This fixes PCIBIOS interrupt
routing across PCI-PCI bridges for embedded devices.
IRQ for an entry in a PCIBIOS interrupt routing ($PIR) table.
- Change pci_cfgintr() to except the current IRQ of a device as a fourth
argument and to use that IRQ for the device if it is valid.
- If an intpin entry in a $PIR entry has a link of 0, it means that that
intpin isn't connected to anything that can trigger an interrupt. Thus,
test the link against 0 to find invalid entries in the table instead of
implicitly relying on the irqs field to be zero. In the machines I have
looked at, intpin entries with a link of 0 often have the bits for all
possible interrupts for PCI devices set.

a relative entry point. 'entry' is that relative offset. It is perfectly
valid to have an entry point with a relative offset of 0. PCIbios.ventry

'entry' into account, thus it is the proper variable to test to see if we
have an entry point or not.

Fixed ddb's handling of traps from with ddb on i386's only.
This was mostly fixed in rev.1.27 (by longjmp()'ing back to the top

mostly never worked for other arches, since rev.1.27 has not been ported

cases should be handled at a lower level to provided better control and
simplify unwinding of state.
Implementation details: don't pretend to maintain db_active in a nested
way -- ddb cannot be reentered in a nested way. Use db_active instead
of the db_global_jmpbuf_valid flag and longjmp()'s return value for things
related to reentering ddb. [re]entering is still not atomic enough.

make a series of modifications to the credential arguments relating
to file read and write operations to cliarfy which credential is
used for what:
- Change fo_read() and fo_write() to accept "active_cred" instead of
"cred", and change the semantics of consumers of fo_read() and
fo_write() to pass the active credential of the thread requesting
an operation rather than the cached file cred. The cached file
cred is still available in fo_read() and fo_write() consumers
via fp->f_cred. These changes largely in sys_generic.c.
For each implementation of fo_read() and fo_write(), update cred
usage to reflect this change and maintain current semantics:
- badfo_readwrite() unchanged
- kqueue_read/write() unchanged
pipe_read/write() now authorize MAC using active_cred rather
than td->td_ucred
- soo_read/write() unchanged
- vn_read/write() now authorize MAC using active_cred but
VOP_READ/WRITE() with fp->f_cred
Modify vn_rdwr() to accept two credential arguments instead of a
single credential: active_cred and file_cred. Use active_cred
for MAC authorization, and select a credential for use in
VOP_READ/WRITE() based on whether file_cred is NULL or not. If
file_cred is provided, authorize the VOP using that cred,
otherwise the active credential, matching current semantics.
Modify current vn_rdwr() consumers to pass a file_cred if used
in the context of a struct file, and to always pass active_cred.
When vn_rdwr() is used without a file_cred, pass NOCRED.
These changes should maintain current semantics for read/write,
but avoid a redundant passing of fp->f_cred, as well as making
it more clear what the origin of each credential is in file
descriptor read/write operations.
Follow-up commits will make similar changes to other file descriptor
operations, and modify the MAC framework to pass both credentials
to MAC policy modules so they can implement either semantic for

Here's a description of the problem and my fix:
The problem with the old MTRR code is that it only expects
to find documented values in the bytes of MTRR registers.
To convert the MTRR byte into a FreeBSD "Memory Range Type"
(mrt) it uses the byte value and looks it up in an array.
If the value is not in range then the mrt value ends up
containing random junk.
This isn't an immediate problem. The mrt value is only used
later when rewriting the MTRR registers. When we finally
go to write a value back again, the function i686_mtrrtype()
searches for the junk value and returns -1 when it fails
to find it. This is converted to a byte (0xff) and written
back to the register, causing a GPF as 0xff is an illegal
value for a MTRR byte.
To work around this problem I've added a new mrt flag
MDF_UNKNOWN. We set this when we read a MTRR byte which
we do not understand. If we try to convert a MDF_UNKNOWN
back into a MTRR value, then the new function, i686_mrt2mtrr,
just returns the old value of the MTRR byte. This leaves
the memory range type unchanged.
I'd like to merge this before the 4.6 code freeze, so if people
can test this with XFree 4 that would be very useful.

The main complication for this is that we have to set flags to control
ast() everywhere that changes the signal mask.
Avoid locking in userret() in most of the remaining cases.

Unfortunately, this level doesn't really provide enough granularity. We
probably need several MI NOTES type files for things that are shared by
several architectures but not by all. For example, the PCI options could
live in a NOTES.pci.
This also updates the Makefile for i386 to generate LINT. The only changes
in the generated LINT are the order of various options.
Suggestions for improvement welcome.

Backout and re-apply improperly comitted syntactical cleanups made to files
that were still under active development. Backout improperly comitted program
structure changes that moved localized declarations to the top of two
procedures. Partially re-apply one of the program structure changes to
move 'mask' into an intermediate block rather then in three separate
sub-blocks to make the code more readable. Re-integrate bug fixes that Jake
made to the sparc64 code.
Note: In general, developers should not gratuitously move declarations out
of sub-blocks. They are where they are for reasons of structure, grouping,
readability, compiler-localizability, and to avoid developer-introduced bugs
similar to several found in recent years in the VFS and VM code.

general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

Caveats:
The new savecore program is not complete in the sense that it emulates
enough of the old savecores features to do the job, but implements none
of the options yet.
I would appreciate if a userland hacker could help me out getting savecore
to do what we want it to do from a users point of view, compression,
email-notification, space reservation etc etc. (send me email if
you are interested).
Currently, savecore will scan all devices marked as "swap" or "dump" in
/etc/fstab _or_ any devices specified on the command-line.
All architectures but i386 lack an implementation of dumpsys(), but
looking at the i386 version it should be trivial for anybody familiar
with the platform(s) to provide this function.
Documentation is quite sparse at this time, more to come.
Details:
ATA and SCSI drivers should work as the dump formatting code has been
removed. The IDA, TWE and AAC have not yet been converted.
Dumpon now opens the device and uses ioctl(DIOCGKERNELDUMP) to set
the device as dumpdev. To implement the "off" argument, /dev/null
is used as the device.
Savecore will fail if handed any options since they are not (yet)
implemented. All devices marked "dump" or "swap" in /etc/fstab
will be scanned and dumps found will be saved to diskfiles
named from the MD5 hash of the header record. The header record
is dumped in readable format in the .info file. The kernel
is not saved. Only complete dumps will be saved.

with this flag. Remove the dup_list and dup_ok code from subr_witness. Now
we just check for the flag instead of doing string compares.
Also, switch the process lock, process group lock, and uma per cpu locks over
to this interface. The original mechanism did not work well for uma because
per cpu lock names are unique to each zone.

disablement assumptions in kern_fork.c by adding another API call,
cpu_critical_fork_exit(). Cleanup the td_savecrit field by moving it
from MI to MD. Temporarily move cpu_critical*() from <arch>/include/cpufunc.h
to <arch>/<arch>/critical.c (stage-2 will clean this up).
Implement interrupt deferral for i386 that allows interrupts to remain
enabled inside critical sections. This also fixes an IPI interlock bug,
and requires uses of icu_lock to be enclosed in a true interrupt disablement.
This is the stage-1 commit. Stage-2 will occur after stage-1 has stabilized,
and will move cpu_critical*() into its own header file(s) + other things.
This commit may break non-i386 architectures in trivial ways. This should
be temporary.

Instead of caching the ucred reference, just go ahead and eat the
decerement and increment of the refcount. Now that Giant is pushed down
into crfree(), we no longer have to get Giant in the common case. In the
case when we are actually free'ing the ucred, we would normally free it on
the next kernel entry, so the cost there is not new, just in a different
place. This also removse td_cache_ucred from struct thread. This is
still only done #ifdef DIAGNOSTIC.

older PCI BIOSes hate this and this leads to panics when it is done. Also,
assume that a uniquely routed interrupt is already routed. This also
seems to help some older laptops with feable BIOSes cope.
machdep.guessed_bootdev, and add code to sysctl to parse its value
and give a (not necessarily correct) name to the device we booted
from (the main motivation for this code is to use the info in the
PicoBSD boot scripts, and the impact on the kernel is minimal).
NOTE: the information available in bootdev is not always reliable,
so you should not trust it too much. The parsing code is the same
as in boot2.c, and cannot cover all cases -- as it is, it seems to
work fine with floppies and IDE disks recognised by the BIOS. It
_should_ work as well with SCSI disks recognised by the BIOS.
Booting from a CDROM in floppy emulation will return /dev/fd0 (because
this is what the BIOS tells us).
Booting off the network (e.g. with etherboot) leaves bootdev unset so
the value will be printed as "invalid (0xffffffff)".
Finally, this feature might go away at some point, hopefully when we
have a more reliable way to get the same information.

way to know the max cpu id was through MAXCPU. mp_ncpus isn't useful here
because cpu ids may be sparsely mapped, although x86 and alpha do not do this.
Also, call cpu_mp_probe much earlier so the max cpu id is known before the VM
starts up. This is intended to help support per cpu queues for the new
allocator, but may be useful elsewhere.

This makes other power-management system (APM for now) to be able to
generate power profile change events (ie. AC-line status changes), and
other kernel components, not only the ACPI components, can be notified
the events.
- move subroutines in acpi_powerprofile.c (removed) to kern/subr_power.c
- call power_profile_set_state() also from APM driver when AC-line
status changes
- add call-back function for Crusoe LongRun controlling on power
profile changes for a example
Previously, the UPAGES/KSTACK area of processes/threads would leak memory
at the time that a previously swapped process was terminated. Lukcily, the
leak was only 12K/proc, so it was unlikely to be a major problem unless you
had an undersized swap partition.
