Changed it from 4 to 16 for i386's. It can be anything for i386's,
but compiler options limit it to a power of 2, and assembler and
linker deficiencies limit it to a small power of 2 (<= 16).
We use 16 in the kernel to get smaller tables (see Makefile.i386 and
<machine/asmacros.h>). We still use the default of 4 in user mode.
Use HISTCOUNTER instead of (*kcount) in the definition of KCOUNT()
for consistency with other macros.
changes, so don't expect to be able to run the kernel as-is (very well)
without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.
The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.
Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent
library routine is changed.

Patch attached. The ellipsis causes gcc to flag this as a varargs function,
and the name "__builtin_va_alist" is special cased in gcc to hide the last
argument in the arglist.

I have code to calibrate the overhead fairly accurately, but there
is little point in using it since it is most accurate on machines
where an estimate of 0 works well. On slow machines, the accuracy
of DELAY() has a large variance since it is limited by the resolution
of getit() even if the initial delay is calibrated perfectly.
Use fixed point and long longs to speed up scaling in DELAY().
The old method slowed down a lot when the frequency became variable.
Assume the default frequency for short delays so that the fixed
point calculation can be exact.
Fast scaling is only important for small delays. Scaling is done
after looking at the counter and outside the loop, so it doesn't
decrease accuracy or resolution provided it completes before the
delay is up. The comment in the code is still confused about this.
Disabling npx0 works right now.
Don't reference `npxdriver' if npx0 is not configured. Not configuring
npx0 doesn't quite work yet.
Don't clear potential non-npx pcb flags in setregs().
not lazy-fault page table pages. Update the copyout support to take
that into account. This should fix some segfault problems on such
machines.
After a short test period, we'll move this into 2.2.

called early for console i/o. The timer is usually in BIOS mode
if it isn't explicitly initialized. Then it counts twice as fast
and has a max count of 65535 instead of 11932. The larger count
tended to cause infinite loops for delays of > 20 us. Such delays
are rare. For syscons and kbdio, DELAY() is only called early
enough to matter for ddb input after booting with -d, and the delay
is too small to matter (and too small to be correct) except in the
PC98 case. For pcvt, DELAY() is not used for small delays (pcvt
uses its own broken routine instead of the standard broken one),
but some versions call DELAY() with a large arg when they unnecessarily
initialize the keyboard for doing console output. The problem is
more serious for pcvt because there is always some early console
output.
Guard against the i8254 timer being partially or incorrectly
initialized. This would have prevented the endless loop.
Should be in 2.2.
I have no idea if this works since I don't have one of the cards to test.
I also don't know what the LINT and GENERIC entries should look like,
so I just made up some values for now and left them commented out.
Someone who knows the factory settings for a Pro/10, please contact me!

to inadequate checking for the new mcl_map. Fixed by merging mb_map and
mcl_map into a single mb_map.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
- the operands for bt, bts, arpl and `enter' were reversed.
- btr was reported as bts (with the correct operand order).
- cmpxchg was misplaced. It was misplaced differently in the
comments. It is misplaced differently again in the i486 manual.
I put it where the i586 manual and gas say it is.
- fucompp was misplaced.
- the rr table for(s) some versions of fstp, fcom and fcomp was non-null.
This caused some invalid opcodes to be reported as "" instead of as
"<bad instruction>".
- the word and long versions of the fi* instructions were reversed.
- aaa and daa were reversed.
Fixed bugs involving unusual operand sizes:
- 32-bit registers weren't always forced for bswap or for moves to and
from special registers.
- the operand sizes weren't reported for [l]call or [l]jmp.
- displacements weren't truncated mod 2^16 when the operand size was
16-bit.
- too-large displacements and offsets were fetched, and too-large
offsets were reported, when the operand size was 16-bit.
- sign extended immediate bytes were extended too far when the operand
size was 16-bit.
Fixed bugs involving usual operand sizes:
- 8-bit source registers weren't forced for mov[sz]b[wl].
- 16-bit source registers weren't forced for mov[sz]w[wl].
- immediate bytes were sometimes reported as sign extended even for
byte operations. Same for immediate words in word operations.
- the immediate byte was not reported as sign extended for `push'.
Finished Pentium support:
- cpuid, cmpxchg8b and rsm were missing.
Finished i287 support:
- fneni, fndisi and fsetpm were missing. These are harmless nops on
later FPUs.
Improvements:
- report invalid opcodes 0xd6 and 0xf1 using .byte. They are special
in not causing invalid operand exceptions when executed.
- report the immediate byte for unusual aam and aad instuctions.
Immediate bytes other than 0x0a always worked and are documented to
work on Pentiums.
This code was sent to me by Bruce Evans, and seems to fix some
possible kernel panic in case of an execution error. It did not
cause any problems on my system, but I did never observe the
problem this patch is supposed to fix, anyway.
This patch is a NOP, unless the kernel is built with "options
USER_LDT", and doesn't affect the GENERIC kernel for this reason.
I want to have it in 2.2: it fixes a bug ...

also implies VM_PROT_EXEC. We support it that way for now,
since the break system call by default gives VM_PROT_ALL. Now
we have a better chance of coalesing map entries when mixing
mmap/break type operations. This was contributing to excessive
numbers of map entries on the modula-3 runtime system. The
problem is still not "solved", but the situation makes more
sense.
Eventually, when we work on architectures where VM_PROT_READ
is orthogonal to VM_PROT_EXEC, we will have to visit this
issue carefully (esp. regarding security issues.)

2.2-BETA users should disable it using npx0 flags 0x04 the same as
2.2-ALPHA users should have.
This makes unexpected faults (in an interrupt handler) more likely
to crash properly. It could be done even better (more robustly and
more efficiently) using lazy fault handling.
configure() where it always belonged. It was originally slightly
misplaced after configure(). Rev.138 left it completely misplaced
before the DEVFS, DRIVERS and CONFIGURE sysinits by not moving it

Restored the printing of bootinfo.bi_n_bios_used now that it can
be nonzero.
I've added an installation from optical disk drive facility.
This enables FreeBSD to be installed from an optical disk, which
may be formatted in "super floppy" style or sliced into MSDOS-FS
and UFS partitions.

and cd.c by Joerg Wunsch <joerg@freebsd.org> before bringing this
